What long term visa is available? I wasn't aware of any.

Exactly. Guys claiming they are playing the stock market and within 10 seconds it's obvious they are just invested in the market,no way beating it.

Keep it simple. How much does his life cost in home country? Use same budget here and you'll get a much higher standard of living, except for the richest few or the poorest few. Reduce home budget by a 1/3 for same lifestyle as home in a Thai style or increase by a 1/3 and the retiree would feel they were relatively balling it.

So you mean if you don't pay they would stay for free?

What year was that? I'm literally sat with my girl now in the ministry of education canteen where she works and all her colleagues are exceptionally friendly to us. I remember when girls in every Asian country feared being seen as a ho just for walking with a foreigner, but in most places those days are long gone.

How old are you and how old are the women you message? My gf has many single friends looking for bf not money. But they're not 20 years old.

Of course an impossible task for most but it's always been my hope to not die with unspent wealth. Though knowing when to draw down and by how much is proving to be a very tricky question.

Where in Colombia? Women not easy or difficult? 🤣

Why not find a better country for you?

Agreed. But he's in Canada at winter time. That's why I suggested the supplement.

In the UK I can afford to live well in a provincial town. Same amount let's me live well in bkk. Is that expat, refugee or migraint? These labels crumble away on close analysis.

Take a vitamin D pill. More effective.

Nice data. Where did you find it? And where's the best places, air quality wise?

Young people looking for a partner like bkk. Older people liking nightlife and or culture like bkk. People earning money like bkk. Most others prefer somewhere else.

Yes yes, I expected ridicule. This Off to China, where “levels of outdoor air pollution…are among the highest in the world.” By day one, those getting broccoli sprouts were able to get rid of 60 percent more benzene from their bodies. “The key finding…was the observed rapid and highly durable elevation of the detoxification of… a known human carcinogen https://nutritionfacts.org/blog/combating-air-pollution-effects-with-food/#:~:text=Written By Michael Greger M.D. FACLM • July 21%2C 2020&text=Outdoor air pollution may be,%2C stroke%2C and respiratory infection. Its a pity that this topic has been moved to farming forum. I wanted the widest readership because this could potentially save lives.

For those of us worried about the effects of air pollution on our lungs some amazing evidence that eating broccoli sprouts which take just two to four days to grow from seed so boost the immune system in the nose that pm25 particles don't get thru. Anybody growing them? I really hope they grow in Thailand.

But the bottom 20% of Aussie men far far outcompete the bottom 50% of Filipino men. Thanks to the Aussie government they have housing and healthcare and cheap food in the fridge.

Where do they go instead?

Any guy who thinks knocking back 10 pints is the life of Riley missed out on the benefits of a good education. Sharing the local diseases with the Mrs isn't exactly my idea of the good life either. But if he's got the life he wants good on him.

Most people I meet only ever retired in Thailand.

They make money hiring the salesmen who have to buy a lot of product. Gf still owes money to them 15 years after leaving the company having never made a cent. Stear clear.

Did you pay sinsod? Just asking because it seems a bit rich that when in Thailand Mr Farang is often asked to follow Thai culture but when Mrs Thai is in his country the Thai family often expect her to follow Thai culture too. Rather a bit one sided, bit like colonialism in reverse.

Last night I had two pints of 4% beer. First drink in months. By midnight I felt like I had drunk 6! Horrible feeling and definitely not worth it. At least for me, being over 50 seems to make alcohol a low return activity.

And what do you drink these days?
