I guess when the idea is to buy and sell in Thailand then that is perfectly fine. But how about if I would buy such a "Thai" gold bar here and later I would want to sell it in Europe. Could I sell it in Europe for the "correct" amount? If not, is it also possible to buy gold 99.9% in Thailand for a competitive price?

Are you Ricardo? Or do you remember Ricardo? He used to hang out in that same place about the same time.

That seems is the difficult part for many people. When is enough enough ? Having a small apartment and a small car and enough to eat is enough. But because I work so hard I should really own a bigger apartment and a better car and eat some decent food. I think even this little part can spiral for some time. And then are all those other expenses.

It's all an illusion. Just close your eyes and imagine.

7/11 I don't know how many of them have a printer. I.e. the one at the end of Sukhumvit Soi 11 has one.

And protest against capitalism? To get what? Communism? I don't think capitalism is perfect. But in restricted form it seems to be the best of the options.

Really? And did the farmers get the biggest part of that money? Or did the middlemen, who always make money, just make more money? And the middlemen are exactly those local influential people who make sure the poor people vote for the "correct" party.

Lots of people did go there many years ago. It was busy day and night. Now they have maybe 10% or 20% of the number of customers which they used to have. The quality is still ok but the prices are a lot higher than they used to be. And to be fair there is a lot of competition which wasn't there many years ago. I used to go there probably several times a week. Now I go there maybe once a month and if they would close it tomorrow, I wouldn't miss it. Time changes.

Fast reply, fast delivery, looks like good quality https://www.sk-wires.com/ 50m should be enough to start. The numbers are small but easy enough to read. Thanks @Crossy

By which standard?

Maybe it was an accident. If anybody wants to kill himself or anybody else jumping from the 3rd floor sounds like a stupid idea.

With all big political decisions and promises there should be impact studies before anything is promised or introduced. Obviously it's nice if everybody gets double the money. But is it realistic? Unfortunately the gullible don't know and don't care. Yes, I want double the money. Give it to me. And the other parties who don't promise all that extra money most obviously be rich greedy bastards... Somehow I hope another party will promise 3 times more money. And then maybe someone from PT will point out that that won't work. And then the question is in the open: if 3 times doesn't work is 2 times realistic?

Really? Obviously it's nice to have money but often there are consequences. I could have a lot more money than I have now if I would have worked harder. I preferred to enjoy life and don't work so hard. If anybody would offer me now millions to trash my family in public, I wouldn't do it. What's the point of being rich and living in misery?

Talk to a lawyer and/or accountant who is used to setting up such companies. Your problem is (I guess) the most common problem for many foreigners in Thailand. It seems many accountants find ways to do this. Maybe hire officially a couple of motorcycle guys for deliveries, etc. Because all that is a very grey area don't expect that it will be discussed in detail here. Depending how long you live/work already in Thailand you probably know that there are lots of rules and lots of interpretations of those rules... And make sure you find an experienced Thai person to help you with this. Setting it up once is the easy part, running it for years smoothly can be difficult and that requires the expertise.

Wonderful, then she should call it her new (fictional) movie and don't pretend it's her real life.

I remember some time ago (years?) that Harry and Megan told the world that they want some privacy. At that time I thought I can understand that they don't want to be in the press 24/7. Have a nice quiet life somewhere. And then? Then it seems they decided they want all the publicity they can get. Strange! And now they publish pictures when she if crying. Who made those pictures? And who has a photographer nearby with the instructions to make some pictures when I cry. Strange!

Somehow it must be funny to work for a company which was just purchased by (one of) the richest man on earth and then he demands that you work overtime and sleep in the office. Does Musk pay those people double? Or are they supposed to work twice the time, so that he gets even richer? Strange!

Maybe she should have walked. ????

Did you ever try one? IMHO reading a book on an eInk reader like Kindle is so much more relaxing compared to a computer screen with backlight. I am comfortable reading a book on an eInk device for hours. I would never do that on a computer screen. You can also change the font size on the book readers to whatever is most comfortable for you.

Thanks. I have to admit I didn't think about them. I bought a few things from them always only if I didn't find it anywhere else. And then it was normally at least double the price of what I panned to pay. It is definitely an option if there are no alternatives.

They started it in 1952 on the radio. For the record: I wasn't around at that time, I just looked it up. https://www.deutschlandfunk.de/70-jahre-internationaler-fruehschoppen-100.html

I don't know where you saw those braces. It definitely wasn't me.

Democracy might be in theory always better. But in real life? Some democratically elected leaders soon act like dictators. No accountability, corrupt, nepotism, and and and. Democracy would be wonderful with educated well informed voters. That is unfortunately not reality in Thailand - and many other countries.

Are there any women in your area? Your wife could ask them.

Sounds like more unrealistic promises so that the gullible will vote for them. Why not promise everybody they will win regularly in the lottery? I am sure some of the red-shirts would "think" that is a great idea. The sad part is that now the realistic people have to tell those dreaming voters that reality depends on what is possible and not what you dream about.
