  1. Keep it simple. Logitech M90.
  2. Go to Security Settings and turn off MF authentication at log-in.
  3. Ji Hong has kao mun gai plus more. Try the "everything" platter. https://maps.app.goo.gl/7JMbkvKYf5HMLgZt5
  4. When I transferred registration from Chonburi to Yaso, I didn't get a new book at Yaso. The new registration number and province were noted on the cover of the old book.
  5. I went to see Deepal S07, i love the interior, but BYD Sealion 7 looks interesting and online research shows it's better in many ways. I can still use the car if they really want to tax world wide income and I dont stay here year long.
  6. Just watched: Black Doves. New TV series, only 6 episodes. Juror 2. Latest movie from Clint Eastwood. Both very good.
  7. Fidelity won't let me have a debit card because I have an International address.
  8. I have a Cornell electric rice cooker with a stainless steel inner pot, but lately I have been cooking rice in a microwave oven. Use a glass dish with cover. Rice to water in the ratio of 1:1.5. 10 oz rice plus15 oz water is enough for two. No leftover to deal with and freshly cooked rice taste very good. Cook in a 800W microwave oven at full power for 5 minutes, then at 400W for another 15 minutes.
  9. The last thing I want is to have a fund manager playing market timing on my behalf. https://www.spglobal.com/spdji/en/research-insights/spiva/
  10. Once when I had my BKK debit card swallowed by an ATM, I went inside the bank to report. The front desk told me the branch did not have the key, the teller made a copy of my ID, which he showed to the ATM maintenance crew when they came two days later. The crew retrieved my card and let the branch held it until I came to pick it up. I don't have any debit cards from any Thai bank anymore, not worth the fees and hassle,You never know when it will be rejected. Now I am carrying a BKK credit card, with QR scan payment everywhere and cardless cash withdrawal, I am using my card less and less often.
  11. Congratulations to US index funds investors. S&P 500 index was 5995 at Friday's market closing. It took about 5 years to double from 3000. It is up 26% year to date, not including the dividends.
  12. 1. US Passport 2. SS card. 3. For the third ID, I used Form SSA-1099 which has my correct address.
  13. I have a Fortuner with duel fuel systems. The LPG system needed an inspection for tax renewal yearly. All the shop on Sukhumvit Road in Pattaya did was just took a picture of my car, super imposed the picture showing a absentee man infront of my car. The picture was part of the document for tax renewal. Since then I have been going back to where I have installed the system for yearly inspection, where they really do an inspection for the same price as the sleeze shop.

  14. I have stocks and very little cash. I had bond holdings until 11 year ago when sold them and invested the money into BRK/B at about $104 per share. Today BRK/B is about $450 per share. I was going to sell BRK/B whenever I needed cash but I have been selling other stocks with less capital gain to minimize tax.
