Passenger charges soar at six major Thai airports
mogandave replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
But for capitalists there would be no airport for lazy leftists to whine about. -

What’s a fair margin? -

Let the people that want use the airport, pay for the airport. Makes sense to me. -

I like the look, but found the cab a bit cramped. -

That’s what I thought. -

So when you make (apparently) false claims you’re just trying to be helpful, but when I ask you for clarification, I’m being argumentative, got it. Properties priced significantly higher than market value do not sell anywhere. -

The owner’s costs have nothing to do with the value. Market value is what something will sell for. It is difficult to sell an overpriced property anywhere. Again, market value is based on what people will pay for something, not what the owner thinks it is worth. Again, this has nothing to do with the owner being a foreigner. So how is it you disagree with me? A home that will not sell in a year, will likely not sell in two. -

Which has nothing to do with what I said. Properties in Europe that are priced significantly over market value will take years to sell as well, so it’s not really that different. Which just shows that if the property is priced right, it will sell. So apparently we agree, in that a foreigner (or anyone) selling a property at an attractive price should have no difficulty unloading it in a year, yes? That said, if one buys a piece of farm land for 500k in the middle of nowhere and builds a 10M home on it, the home is not going to sell for 10M. But this has nothing to do with the fact that the seller is a foreigner with only a year to sell it, it’s just that no one wants it at 10M. -

I think it silly to believe one would expect to get less if you only have a year to sell something, unless you only have one customer. Meat expires in a week, everyone knows they have to sell it, but it does not drive the price down until the last day of at all. -
Is the room on the top floor? If not, insulating the ceiling will not help much. How is the room configured?

Risk of bursting washing machine water hose?

Exactly. Closing the valve will not reduce the pressure, it only reduces flow. -
Dead body of American man found in Chao Phraya River near Bangkok

Why do you assume that? They found the US passport, which includes emergency contact information. -
Luxury car owner threatens debt collectors with pistol before fleeing
mogandave replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
They were not planning to leave it there. You can’t pull it on the tow-rig with a wheel clamp on it either, which was what they were prepping it for. Hope this helps. -

How would it have helped? -

I think they tape/seal it prior to towing so the the “owner” can’t come back and claim things are missing or damaged. -

Thai tourism surge: 25 million visitors forecasted, boosting economy
mogandave replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Very low-spending tourists can cost more than they benefit. Sure, a few baht here and there, but overall a loss. -

But higher income does not always mean higher margin. -
