  1. I've met loads of Thai women burdened with unsustainable debt. I've seen (to be fair can't say met) loads of Thai men who seem to be debt free and focused on lazing around enjoying themselves. I've met many single moms burdened with raising a child in very difficult circumstances. Not many men. It's tricky but I'd say that for myself I'm not in debt or raising a child alone and it's because I used my "intelligence" So I'd reluctantly say the men are smarter.
  2. Because women are carp at math.
  3. I just completed this quiz. My Score 50/100 My Time 103 seconds  
  4. Yet you have 23k posts communicating with farangs in Thailand!!!
  5. Humans tend to make themselves the heros of their own narrative.
  6. Autumn years? You mean 40 to 60? Winter years 60 to 80?
  7. The majority of women only develop "maturity" when they no longer get by on their looks. It's the great dilemma for the older man. Tight skin but a loose brain or a tight brain but loose skin.
  8. And how close to James Bond are you?
  9. Thank you everyone, lots of great ideas. Really appreciate the time put in. Core exercises have been a real help. Spasms seem to have been 95% eliminated. Hard bed helps a lot too. Strangely sitting crossed legged in Buddha position seems to help.
  10. Bad back prone to stiffness and spasms. I love to travel but fear a debilitating episode. What's the strongest pain killer one can buy over the counter? Actually 99% of the time it's not as bad as I fear and I struggle thru. I really don't like taking medicines. It's more the peace of mind knowing it's there if I need it.
  11. After being here a long time why are you going to restaurants tourists go?
  12. You think every relationship between a man and a woman is transactional.
  13. Ohh...I am bald!!! Lol I'm in Bangkok and I will try the peroxide drops you suggested thanks.
  14. Where would I go? Any idea of costs for both ears?
  15. " I'm mad as hell and I'm not going to take it anymore"
  16. Some people are good at saving while some are good at spending. Ironically very rare to meet a man good at both.
  17. The old adage of financial planning of making a retirement budget for Thailand then doubling it didn't apply to me. I'm spending less than I thought. In planning I had populated the future with a larger appetite than I had. In fact the opposite was true. I needed less beer than I had planned, less Aircon, less restaurants, less dating etc Budgeted 70k a month life but only spend 50k. How about others?
  18. Somewhere in that is a fantastic metaphor for life
  19. Start a group based on your interest. Drink slowly when in a bar. Make your last drink non alcoholic. Choose Thai food out, maybe not healthy, but it's not junk or ultra processed.
  20. Do you mind saying your monthly expenses in Thailand; what city? and then siem reap?
  21. Average age in Thailand is 40, UK is 41
  22. Centre of bkk is young, rest of Thailand aging very fast. But I do agree with your sentiments.
  23. In your opinion when is a man at his peak?
  24. What do you do with all those extra hours now you're neither drinking or socialising?
