  1. I keep it simple. FD account for immigration >800k. No small deposit/withdrawal is required to update the balance . This is with Bangkok Bank. Another for credit card guarantee. Remember: If the credit card is active the available balance is the account balance minus the security guarantee. If the balance is 70K and the credit card guarantee is 50K then the available balance is only 20k for the immigration purposes.
  2. Banglamung Hospital. Friday Dec 9 8am-noon, Sat Dec 10 8am-3pm. Free. Walk-in. https://goo.gl/maps/L1PmJVbhsvEUtW2j9
  3. I do not know since when but the new law requires a new plate registered in your own province if you want to change name.
  4. Look at the package labels.
  5. I gave my Chonburi registered old bike to someone in Yaso. So the registration had to be moved to Yaso. I was told there were two ways to do it: 1. Go to Chonburi Land Transportation office to notify them . A note will be printed in the bike book that the registration will be moved. 25B , same day. Then goto Yaso to apply for a new plate. The registration will be trasfered right away. 2. without going to Chonbori opffice first, goto Yaso office which will inform Chonburi office. Yaso office will be able to transfer the registration after the papperwaok came back from Chonburi. Either way the bike has to be inspected at the new province. If the seller's compulsary insurance and tax have not expired, you do not need to buy new insurance for the purpose of name transfer. . You will only need new insurance to renew the bike tax when it expires. Make sure you get all the necessary documents from the seller. After the trasfer you will still be using the same bike book with new info printed on it, but a new plate. The new sticker will show a new registration number but the same expiration date.
  6. Sorry I am not willing to name the doctors at BPH whom I did not find helpful. After being disappointed by two of them I am not going to try my luck with a third at the clinic.
  7. Dealing with BPH? I am taking Doxazosin 2 mg only, also try to lose weight by watching my diet,walking at least 30 minutes everyday and cut down on alcohol. Still have to wake up at night to go to the bathroom but not as often as before. I am taking Doxazosin with 5mg Bisoprolol which is a beta bloacker. I cleared with a doctor before that. BP 122/74 this morning. BTW Based on my limited experience, I would not recommend the two clowns at Bangkok Pattaya Hospital, Banglamung Hospital has a young excellent Urologist if you can wait for an appointment.
  8. I do the same with my laptop. Take a look at InvadeIT. My 5 year old Lenovo has similar specs . is this adequate for you?
  9. I have done it.. Just follow the elevated walkway from Makkasan. Blue line MRT entrance is marked X in the pic:
  10. or leave the luggage behind, buy everything new.
  11. "Pattaya police were inspecting the hotel to try to locate the suspect, adding they would be able to solve the case soon because the suspect forgot their ID card in the hotel room."
  12. I believe the toner comes with the printer. Look online for cheap replacement cartridges . TN-1000 or something like that.....depends on the model. I have good experience with Brother printers over the years I hope you enjoy using it.
  13. Bills is looking good so far. Bills vs Vikings last week was a great game. https://nflreplay.net/minnesota-vikings-vs-buffalo-bills-13-nov-2022-replay-full-game/
  14. Don't let it go to your head. At 90days I update my bank book to print the balance, no need to goto the IO.
  15. I have been using Brother lazer printers for a long time. Print only, no wifi, HL1110 2590B Print only, with wifi HL1210W 3590B Multi-function (print scan copy), no wifi DCP 1510 3990B Multi function with wifi DCP 1610W 4990B good enough for me. Cheap toner on Lazada.
  16. Extraction only if a crown is impossible...please. I visit a dentist twice a year until Dr Warin in Pattaya told me to see him once a year only. The very basic reason is to avoid any extraction, by catching any problem early.
  17. Another suggestion. The popular Mouton Cadet Bordeaux for 775B. https://th.wine-now.asia/baron-philippe-de-rothschild-mouton-cadet-bordeaux-rouge.html
  18. If you are willing to spend a little more, anyone of these from Georges Dubouef is worth the price. Their Chardonny and Cabernet were my everyday winesfor a long time. You may get a discount buying the 6 packs here: https://th.wine-now.asia/catalogsearch/result/?q=Georges+Duboeuf+ In US I get at least 6 pack of their Beaujolais nouveau every year but not willing to pay for it here. https://th.wine-now.asia/georges-duboeuf-beaujolais-villages-nouveau-2022.html
  19. Sancerre brings back memory of my trip to Loire Valley. Ah...the chateaus. I saw it somewhere in Pattaya for less then 3000B a few days ago, now I cannot remember where. There are many Loire Valley wines here available: https://th.wine-now.asia/wine/white-wine.html?region_wine=9593
  20. This is where a bypass is really needed.
  21. Transfer Certificate is not required if the executor/administrator is appointed and acting in US. If I name a US person in my will to be the executor/administrator, is it possible to get a US court to probate my will while my address is in Thailand? Which district/county court will appoint the executor? https://www.irs.gov/businesses/small-businesses-self-employed/transfer-certificate-filing-requirements-for-the-estates-of-nonresident-citizens-of-the-united-states
  22. I keep most of my assets in my Vanguard and Fidelity accounts, all accounts with beneficiary designated, " transfer on death". Nothing to worry. Schwab and Interactive Brokers accounts with Thai addresses do not allow beneficiary designation. Make a will, keep it with my Thai lawyer, he should know what to do. They are much smaller accounts, nothing to worry. Schwab and IBKR are more user friendly with convenient and free oversea online wire transfers. Transfer money or stocks from Vanguard to Schwab is very easy with ACH and the Automated Customer Account Transfer Service (ACATS). Transfers can be ordered on Schwab site and it is not a taxable event until I sell the stocks. Cost basics information will also be automatically transferred to help me with tax reporting.
  23. At Lotus I found Eaglehawk @399B better then those higher priced. At Makro I like Laughing Bird 1.5L .
