Just to put it all in perspective, way back in 1996 I only got 36 baht per pound, A very few years later it went as high as 90 baht (for a very few days). My point is that exchange rates fluctuate up and down over time.

The best I ever got was 89.95.

True what you say, but in addition things have got much more expensive here!

Now i know why Thai people avoid eating beef.

I knew that buffalo was strong, but not that strong.

Every day there are drunks that kill people on the roads and highways. Let this be a lesson to those that pay no attention to the laws of the country.

Not to mention all the sober reckless drivers that kill people on the road.

I got rid of my driver when I realized i could drive better with a bottle of Scotch in me!

Not that I do that these days.

My god, the armchair detectives and conspiracy theorists are going to have a field day with this one!!

Why would the US government remove the Glass–Steagall Act?

Why would the UK create the big bang deregulation?

Why would they:

1) assist jobs to be shipped abroad to China?

2) allow a housing bubble to be created?

3) want their economies mired in debt?

4) create expensive wars in the Middle East (remember WMD's)

These things happen because the real people in power (not their puppets like Obama) are pursuing a globalist New World Order.

And you as a citizen of the West are unlikely to be a winner in it!

Thailand - no matter its faults expect its economy to keep doing better against the Western ones.

If they want to improve smokers health they should stop using radioactive mineral ash as a fertilizer. Tobacco plants have an affinity for absorbing radioactivity. A 30 a day smoker receives 80 milliseverts of radiation per year from particles absorbed into their lungs. 80Ms =10 CAT scans, or about 7650 chest X-Rays. Every Fukushima makes the situation worse. If someone needs to smoke, smoking cigars is a safer choice.

There are still those radical isolationist types in America today, many call themselves libertarians and followers of the irrational cult of Ayn Rand and Rand Paul.

Libertarian doesn't mean racist! Its about stopping government from taking too much control and operating an agenda to the benefit of a super rich minority which is to the long-term detriment of the majority of people its meant to serve. There are plenty of Libertarians of all races incl black & Jewish.

I'm selling my AK47 on ebay. Do you think the FBI know about it?

Promotional material for Shadowhawk drone shows a UAV spying on a private gun sale.

How are you finding the 44.99, As you are living on this?

I live on the price of gold which has also not done too well either for quite a while. One theory is that gold has been deliberately kept low, through the leasing in the gold market, to prevent currencies from declining further.

Google says the FBI is monitoring the Web for potential terrorist activity.

I heard they Googled "terrorist" and got about 90,600,000 results in 0.21 seconds.

Checking out all those search results should keep them busy for a while.

I think its all "Conspiracy Theory" nonsense myself...

The country's vice president Nicolas Maduro said that the long-standing president died at 4:25pm local time in the country's capital Caracas, using the broadcast to call for 'unity, tranquility and understanding'.

‘We have no doubt that commander Chavez was attacked with this illness,’ added Mr Maduro, fingering ‘imperialist’ foes led by the United States.

He said: 'The old enemies of our fatherland looked for a way to harm his health.’

Why not give Myanmar a Nobel Prize? They gave Obama one for not yet doing anything. He had just taken office and still has troops stationed in over one-hundred different countries. A Peace Prize....

And killed more people with drone strikes than anyone else in history

Lets not forget we arm Al-Qaeda in Syria & Libya - they are our friends there and enemies elsewhere - confused?

Venezuelan president Hugo Chavez speculated that the US might have developed a way to weaponise
cancer, after several Latin American leaders were diagnosed with the disease. The list includes former
Argentine president, Nestor Kirchner (colon cancer) Brazil's president Dilma Rousseff (lymphoma cancer), her
predecessor Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva (throat cancer), former Cuban president Fidel Castro (stomach cancer) Bolivian
president, Evo Morales (nasal cancer) and Paraguayan president Fernando Lugo (lymphoma
cancer). What do they have in common besides cancer? All of them are left-wing leaders. Coincidence?

Others:Alexander Litvinenko poisoning by polonium

Yasser Arafat possible poisoning by polonium
Canadian politician Jack Layton died of some dreadful kind of mysterious, fast-acting cancer.

How Corrupt Deals and Misguided Medical Regulations Are Bankrupting America—and What to Do About It

No matter how we think Thailand is run its still run on better long term economic principles than many Western countries.

If you study economics it becomes apparent that many countries like the US/ UK have been ruined over the last 30 years.

Some people consider that this has been a deliberate policy - either way, expect more of the same i.e. stronger Baht and declining exchange rates in the future!

I'm expecting a rapidly declining Baht in the near future.

Civil war is usually bad for the exchange rate.

Last time we had the red/ yellow shirt Bangkok standoff the Baht stayed steady and in fact rose slightly.

Many ferangs wish it were not so but will just have to face that they are not the overall winers in this game of globalism.

Cycling like running are both about the worst exercise for your health.

All they achieve is to grind down your Chondrocytes (cartilage cells) and shorten your telomeres (protective caps at the end of your chromosomes)

Recent research shows that In fact no exercise is better for you than either cycling or running.

All the signs that they are preparing the ground to go Nuclear.

Other countries still have no answer about what to do with the waste like the highly dangerous spent fuel rods...

So whats Thailand going to do with them?

Most of them will try to say they're "High Skilled" to avoid hard work, but in reality they can't even measure/ or align properly and always use the wrong cement/ sand ratios. The quality is OK for poor quality Thai construction but useless if you are attempting anything more.

If you lent property for safe keeping - and then was told you had to wait seven years to get it back you might consider if they still had it?

yeah, Max Keiser knows!

No its taking 7 years to move 1,500 tons of gold to Germany because Angela Merkel is carrying it back one bar at a time in her handbag!

not 1500 but 350 tons will be repatriated from the US. your information is as good as the one of Max Keiser

You understand its a joke - right?? So no need to be deadly accurate.. If you're the expert why are they taking so long to ship the gold then?

yeah, Max Keiser knows!

If the dollar, euro and yen were to crash it would not just be a Thai problem .... it would be global. And they should think themselves lucky they didn't have the economic genius of Gordon Brown costing the nation a fortune selling off gold when the price was rock bottom. Come to think of it Thailand must be swimming in gold only most of it is hanging around hi-so necks.

Brown was the biggest liar and hypocrite that ever came out of the UK, just like all Labour politicians, Labour are bigger liars and crooks than all the political parties put together.

According to Max Keiser, in the first part of this discussion, the reason that its taking 7 years to transfer the gold back to Germany and why Brown sold the UK gold so cheap is because the gold held in reserve banks has actually been "leased" out, which is a fancy way of saying it may still be in the vault, but its been sold on.
