  1. Some small stores did not take it, but most everyone else in Thailand did. It was a Thai Airways AMEX and the benefits were pretty good. When I travel in the US, I use US cards.
  2. I have UOB converted from Citi. I did not need a WP to convert it, but I had WP when I got the Citi card 15-20 years ago. I have a B1M limit, and think it’s great. No/waived fees I get cash back bonuses each month. I had Thai Amex and a K-bank card, but I inadvertently let them go. Also two US cards I use for travel and whatnot
  3. Sure, it’s possible, but why would someone torch their car because it’s value went down? Insurance only pays replacement value, minus the deductible. Burning one’s own car for insurance makes one a criminal, and most people (even most leftists) aren’t criminals.
  4. But not the same legal process. All of the sudden, the left cares about the law, too funny.
  5. Yes, that most people no longer trust the lying mainstream media is one of the main reasons Trump was able to beat that weak, lying POC Harris.
  6. Sorry. The will of the non-leftist people. Leftists (you) want the country flooded will illegals, non-leftists (me) do not.
  7. Judges are only biased when they rule against the left.
  8. So once again, the left will fight tooth and nail to stop Trump from doing the will of the people, and then they’ll blame Trump for not getting it done.
  9. California: Highest taxes Biggest deficit Most homeless Most illegal aliens Highest crime Worst schools Highest energy prices Best weather How ‘bout tgat high-speed rail?
  10. 25 million 3rd world dead should help reduce global warming, yes? There are so many countries with much better, much cheaper healthcare than the US, does it not make more sense for them fund global healthcare?
  11. Your argument, if it is an argument, seems a bit silly. Demand drives the value of gold. Sure, if the dollar moves, it affects cost in currencies not pegged to the dollar, but it does not affect the value, because unlike currency, gold has intrinsic value.
  12. Then why did you say: “…you are in euro you are actually just up around 4-5%…”?
  13. I did not say how much I was up, I said I was 10-15% in gold, meaning as a percentage of my investments. I think I am actually up about 150% with gold overall which is is not that great, considering how much better a simple S & P index fund has performed over the same time period. I did not buy gold for growth. That’s what the other 85-90% of my investments are for.
  14. I am 10-15% in gold, and I happy it’s up, the last few months not withstanding, It has not done that well in the scheme of things. All you guys that can predict how currencies will move must be incredibly wealthy. I know I would be if I could.
  15. Indeed. Look how long you have been a leftist.
