Do you owe money?
OneMoreFarang replied to simon43's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
There is nothing wrong with having a good credit rating and a credit card and using it. We are all grown up and can use it responsible and pay for it. Recently I bought two pairs of shoes, together about 7000B, on my credit card points. I like that. And it cost me nothing - apart from that the credit card company knows where I spent some money. -

Exactly! But it seems many people don't realise this... People might learn something and soon they will have a better paying job. Sometimes we need money to later make more money. -

It's a good idea to live within our limits. But it's also nice to have credit cards for convenience. In the moment I pay my bills right away and I don't owe money to anyone. But there were times in my life when the situation was different. I think borrowing money is acceptable. But we should think about for what and think about if and how we can pay it back. I.e. as an investment for (realistic) business it might make sense. But to finance a holiday on credit is a bad idea. -
And why? Bottles are fine. Or not?

I think there is a shop in the LG level in Terminal 21.

Smart Home automations - anybody using?
OneMoreFarang replied to Bandersnatch's topic in Alternative/Renewable Energy Forum
This guy, why has many good Home Assistant videos, just added another one. In my experience it is always difficult for beginners to start, because maybe "starter" videos are old. And many additional videos are too complicated for people who just start with this. Enjoy! -
How often do you get your ACs cleaned?
OneMoreFarang replied to scubascuba3's topic in General Topics
is this really necessary? I think normally ACs don't lose "gas". And if they lose it, then the ACs work not as good and it's easy to know something has to be checked and done. -
How often do you get your ACs cleaned?
OneMoreFarang replied to scubascuba3's topic in General Topics
I can easily lean the filter screens of my Daikin ACs myself. It seems these screens will block most of dust, hair, etc. Ask neighbors about AC cleaning companies which they use and their experience. I have a guy with a small family business and he and his son do a good job. -
A little update. In the past I bought aluminium profiles from a company in Bangkok. I contacted them again and asked them if they can produce custom made plates with holes. They confirmed they do that with up to 10mm thick aluminium plates. So now I have to make some drawings and then I can order my custom-made plates to get exactly what I want. They manufacture mostly profiles like these which can be used for lots of things.

It seems it's part of the strategy of the Shinawatras to never give up and enjoy life with all their wealth. They always want more power and always ignore any opposition. And until now, they always have to flee the country so that they don't end in jail. It seems to me this pattern won't stop.

iPhone 16 Launch Draws Large Crowds in Thailand

I plan to go to NANA tonight. Maybe I should have bought one of those to impress the girls. 😉 -
iPhone 16 Launch Draws Large Crowds in Thailand
OneMoreFarang replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
How many of those eager buyers will have now the previous version of that phone? So, what they tell us is basically that their current phone is so bad that they need so urgently a new phone that they can't even wait for a few days more. Amazing! -
No, you know it will cost roughly 120B because you know that the prices are often ++. Or how often does this have to happen to you before you are not surprised anymore? And just to give you something to worry about: Maybe you decide to buy one of those discount memberships which some hotels sell. Maybe you get 30% or 50% discount. Yes, but.... Let's say you see a meal advertised for 1,000B with 50% discount. How much will you pay? Maybe probably think 1000B * 50% = 500B + 50B = 550B + 7% = 588.5B. Surprise! You have to pay 1000B * 50% = 500B + 100B (10% service on top of the original price) = 600B + 7% = 642B. So now that also won't surprise you anymore. I know this calculation happens with some membership programs, I don't know if it happens with many or all of them.

Would you prefer to buy something for 99B or 116B? That's your answer. Everybody who spent some time in Thailand knows about this. There is no surprise. Just get used to it.

It also depends on the individual AC models. I bought Daikin ACs with WLAN remote control. I can control them from anywhere, i.e. I switch them on maybe 5min before I return home. It's up to each of us if we want to use extra features and if we want to pay for them.
-
Maybe the problem are the people who installed them. Every AC leaks if the water is not drained properly. I bought DAIKIN because it seems they have the best reputation from people who know about ACs. Until now, maybe a year since installation, they work great.

Fire Breaks Out at Electric Motorcycle Shop in Sisaket Province
OneMoreFarang replied to Georgealbert's topic in Isaan News
Does it really matter? There will always be a reason why fires start. One thing is sure, if the fire is long enough near one or many electric vehicles, it won't stop before they are all burnt out. -
Best Song of Past 100 Years? Your Vote?
OneMoreFarang replied to GammaGlobulin's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
You are right. So, I thought about which "modern song" from the last couple of years was very good. I think this one is one of the best from recent years. And with 8.5 billion views on YouTube for just this video, it seems many people agree with me. -
