Here's one more line: I lived and worked in Japan for 2 years Tokyo and Sapporo.

What desert is near New York?

If you sit down and there is a menu in your hand you tip

Beers are not cheaper in Japan. That is just a crazy comment based on probably one place you went to. Also comparing Japan to Thailand as you have about four times on this thread is like comparing apples and kangaroos.

It's fun to keep changing hotels? You check out at 12. Check in next place 3 and sometimes later!

Not quite understanding your post. Never book more than one night?? Many hotels are full your second night and most when almost full charge much more for a last minute booking. Not booking ahead may have worked for you but it's hard to believe it's never back fired. Maybe at 1000 baht a night places.

@Bangkok Barry also must have TDS from his post above as well. Why does this forum allow such off topic comments??

I'm booking two flights now the week of March 11th $32 one way Phuket to BKK. Who needs Thai air. Those flights were Air Asia. The flight TO Phuket booked last week about $40.

And many Thais can fill out the paperwork for USA and get a 10 YEAR multiple entry visa which is even EASIER to renew for another 10 years!!!! Absolutely NOT possible here in Thailand.

How many Thais are on holiday in Moskow do you think right now? When every month or so someone like you says what you said it completely baffles me. How can you NOT understand what would happen if all Thais could easily with no visa go to USA, AUS, Switzerland GB , Luxembourg etc etc?

That's strange. If it's hot out at night like in Thailand you use a/c. So I guess if you lived in New England you would get used to the cold and not use heat late October to May? Or move to Florida?

Thanks boomer

Can people look into your house from outside?

If everyone had your opinions about 15-17 year olds the planet would be done. Your post is complete garbage. The kid is a mess stealing 26k and 5 ounces of gold!!

Casinos absolutely everywhere. And what about scratch tickets?!

I mean really?? We should all adapt to this advise?

Highly highly doubt that.

What's the difference with someone drinking a beer " at a street corner" or drinking a coke there? Or a Red Bull?

Oh jeez. I've heard this before. The seller pays the commission. That's it. In many places in rentals the owner or property management pays the agents commission as well ( in most places this is the norm) you also can find " no fee " apts. Now your next theory will be that the rent is set higher to off set the fee!! Your theory about more $$ for sale bigger commissions is laughable as well. Let's take Thailand for example you ask 4.2 million and offer is 4 million. Now to get this extra 200,000 the agent and seller are in cahoots to screw you over. Ok so 3% of 200,000 baht would mean the agent gets 6,000 baht more which is MORE than likely also split with the house/ broker!!! So depending on the agents commission structure they get maybe 3 or 4,000 baht more only!! Hmm would not the agent just convince the seller that 4 million is a great offer and they should take it? Then just move on to next sale. Many condos are also well priced or even underpriced. Maybe you should offer a higher price? Happens in the West a lot. There is a value in Real Estate. The commission is paid from the seller to the agent. It comes from an AGREED TO PRICE BY BOTH PARTIES.

Hundreds of thousands have eaten raw meat at Japanese and Italian restaurants in Thailand and never have been ill. Do you actually deny this? Or is it simply YOU don't?

Larb moo/gai is raw meat? Are you sure about that?

The buyer of a condo here is paying the commission? Are you 100% sure about that??

You may be surprised soon if those are not the two choices

I'm not a Trump supporter but since even CNN can actually have several stories about Biden's let's say issues/ problems there is no reason it can't be done here sometime. It's always the same six people it seems. Never ending. Boring. It's important to discuss an 81 year old man who has been having absolutely worse cognitive issues as the years progress and who wants to be the President of the USA until Jan 2025. What solution to this will actually be the biggest issue in politics in the next three months or so. No one else but a better choice should be the alternative topic. Not DT.

Most sane people can talk about Biden without talking about Trump.
