Hi Chris. Well my wife has all the assets anyway. She owns the home and shop. She runs 2 successful businesses, and has her own money and income. Pity she is such a nightmare to live with.

Regarding apartments, I have been in contact with the agent who looks after an apartment complex called Moonlight Apartments. They are located in the Nong Prue/Boonsampan area. Near the Green Way driving range. Does anybody know of these apartments. There is a studio free now, and 2 more will be available next month. Like another member mentioned, I have to find a place that is nice, and I feel at home in. Obviously cable and WiFi are really a must, plus a swimming pool is an added bonus. If any member can recommend apartments along this line, it will be appreciated.

Op: you can do Pattaya on your budget, if you live a bit outside... but the question is more this one: Are you sure you won't be tempted to dive in to the vast nightlife that Pattaya offers? Also, have a GF in Pattaya tends to be more expensive than out in the country side...

You will need committment and discipline in order to keep your living standard aligned to your budget... specially in towns like Pattaya... I know myself... single in Pattaya, I could not do it with that budget because of the temptations which I would too easily fall for.

the French Riviera has quite a reputation for drugs and prostitutes I believe

Yep... with small differences to Pattaya... drug on the French Riviera is mostly coke... the fat farang are Russian or Armenian or Arabs... girls are long-legged and sun-tanned artificial blond Russian and French girls (and not ladyboys as the long-legged in Thailand)... and the fat farang are REALLY rich and KNOW that they are suggar daddies and the girls don't need to tell them "i love you" all the time...

I was in Soi 6 earlier. I started to prepare for my end by choosing seventy two virgins for my afterlife. I am still looking! So many bars, so many girls and so little time.

Found any virgin, yet? I mean, above the legal age limit?

Odds are higher to find 72 ladyboys on soi 6 than find 1 single virgin

Christmas to happen in Thailand despite all Doomsday efforts

Zurich / Bangkok (Reuters) – Many pretty desperate calls have been made by Thai women to both Swiss Airlines and Swiss banks in the last days, asking about the impact of Doomsday for Christmas.

As morning is breaking now in Switzerland, Mr. Paul Meier, spokesman for Swiss Airline said “The Swiss Government has already announced that Switzerland will not join any Doomsday initiatives. Therefore, I can assure all Thai girlfriends and wives, that Swiss Airline is making every effort possible to ensure that all flights out of Switzerland and bound for Bangkok will be on time over the next days” and added “I can also assure all Thai women that the average percentage of old, rich, single, stupid Farang flying to Thailand over these coming holidays is pretty high and their should be no shortage of Swiss men coming to Thailand.”

Mrs. Rosemarie Bachmann, spokeswoman of the Swiss Bankers Association, added: “The Swiss banks have ensured that all necessary personnel is on duty over these holidays to ensure that the technical availability of the banking and credit card networks will be 100%, thus enabling every Swiss Sugar Daddy to use the ATM’s for cash withdrawal at any time. However,” she added, “we do NOT take any responsibility for the availability of funds on the accounts. Therefore, should Thai women experience that their boyfriends cannot withdraw cash from both debit and credit cards, we would like to advice the Thai women that this would be a good point in time to change the boyfriend, once the Christmas presents have been handed over to you.”

Bern / Zurich (Switzerland) / SDA: Doomsday efforts were well underway shortly after midnight GMT+2 in Switzerland, as Mrs. Holle (God's envoy for white Christmas) decided to drown the country with huge snowfall.

However, the Swiss Army and the Swiss Road Safety Agencies, supported by local snowphlough drivers all over Switzerland, did fight the effort of Mrs. Holle and kept the snow off all main highways, railroads and main streets.

Mr. Peter Mueller, spokesman of the Swiss Federal Government said at 01:00 Swiss time: "As Mrs. Holle had decided to ignore all the democratic structures of Switzerland and neither entered a petition in the Swiss Federal Parliament not did she seek a popular vote for joining Doomsday, the Swiss Government has decided to fight her efforts and has ordered the "best Army of the world" (quote from Mr. Ueli Maurer, Swiss Defense Minister) to do the best to stop Doomsday from happening here."

It will be well noted around the world, that the Swiss are independent and neutral and will never join Doomsday events, neither today nor in all upcoming events, should the organizers not follow our democratic processes. It will also be noted that all the money being placed in Swiss banks is well safe from any Doomsday efforts from the Gods to be

Well, I would definitely fail on point 9 (and maybe others), as I also have 2 Skype accounts and 3 e-mail accounts and a number of different ID's on different sites...

That alone does not mean that the girl is a bad choice... that depends on a variety of other issues

I feel like we're in reruns.

He's the guy who changed from his Japanes GF to a China girl, then suddenly got involved with a ladyboy... and now looking for a Thai posh...

Am taking bets what his next post will be about....

- Isaan farm girl...

- Philippino cleaner in Pattaya...

- Russian Nana hooker bargirl

Cash only bets, no checks, no credit cards (you guys are not trustworthy when it comes to money )

You don't have any legal right to get contracts renewed... thus, look for another place for your business.

My GF's kids don't believe in Santa Clause, but they believe in Santa Swiss bringing Christmas gifts... no matter what day of the year

i use mate regularly and i am neither australian nor english

you are wearing a tinfoil hat... no matter your nationality, you are excused anyway

Are we not soooooooooooooooo happy that such burglaries never ever happen in our home countries and that our police always shows up within a minute from being called????

I think it's fun to be surprised sometimes! You know, you get to know a poster's style assuming he's a Pommie and then find out he's not. Post flags and all those fun times would be spoiled.

Yep... and just think about the hidden racism voting that would have been introduced into the "TV member of the year" contest....

much easier to accept bribes, if you don't know whether the money is coming from a yank, a brit or an ozzie...

The only benefit I get from knowing a person's nationality is to know if they are a non-native speaker or just drunk.

what about native speaker AND drunk?

I don't like anybody to know what nationality I am....

and btw... I don't care what nationality somebody else has... if I deem it to be important for understanding the Q or A of a poster, then I can ask...

A very cunning TV nickname you have

Yep... choose it specially to confuse everybody about my ancestry and age

How's the weather in Tehran?

Not sure, but 67 °F in Bogota and mostly cloudy

I don't like anybody to know what nationality I am....

Question of price range you are willing to go for...

Most big hotels offer special Christmas Events, as they have lot of "Christian" customers who live there

Most of the more expensive restaurants offer special Christmas dinners, as they are predominantely frequented by Westernes

But again... price range there is not within a 500B range, it's more like few thousand p.p.

My recommendation:

TRAVEL!!! You are in BKK, so take 3-4 days for each of the places you think or hear about and explore them for yourself!!!

You hear 4 negative arguments from somebody about Pattaya... lot of other people (me included) can give you 10 positive arguments, like great beaches north of Pattaya up to Chonburi, neither filth nor whores in the various villages around Pattaya, GREAT nightlife and shopping places and restaurants when ever you need them etc etc.

Question is whether you want to listen to all the either negative or positive talkers and make decisions based on hear-say or whether you want to go out and see for yourself.

I want people's opinions who have more experience than me, and who have been in Thailand

alot longer that are more equipped to help me settle. It's nice to see things for myself but i'm

sure the people here know what they are talking about and I want to hear their opinions.

I am sure they know what a small and medium size city looks like

a nice beach

a cinema and a bowling alley looks like

I don't need to go to these places to find this information

that's why I came here, and their view points matter.

Thank you

From the 15 answers you got, around 10 tell you TRAVEL and see the places yourself.

Do you really want to make a decision based on few view points that you get in this forum???

As you see above, for every negative statement, you get at least one positive statement.

Medium size city with beach, cinema, bowling??? DOZENS if not hundreds available all around Thailand coast lines... Imagine you get 20 different recommendations... how do you want to chose the right one???

TRAVEL... and that's my last statement for you and it is really meant to help you.
