The short answer is that if the money came into Thailand from abroad, the receiving bank is obligated to provide you with a tor-tor saam (TT3) a record at the central bank. You can take/send that amount back out of the country without question. If there is no record of money in your account coming from abroad then it's taxable.

If that's the case...,

i met this guy who was visiting Thailand one day while I was walking my dogs. Really nice guy. He likes Shih Tsus. Anyway, we were taIking and I was telling him about my trip to Tia Juana when I was in my early 20's (it surprised me I even remembered) and he told me there's no way that girl was the taxi driver's sister. I mean, he know's what he's talking about. Turns out his cousin is a taxi driver in Tia Juana and says they all do stuff like that. Ah, I digress... Soooo, he know's a guy who knows a guy that's supposed to be high up in one of the Mexican cartels.... can't remember which one. Anyway, those guys know how to move money around.knowwhatimean? I wasn't too interested at the time 'cause hey, when you've been in Thailand a long time, 10,000 baht is a large amount of money for me and I've never had any problem moving it around. If you want, I can call him for you and ask him to find out the best way to move it around. Only problem is I'll need to use your phone 'cause my pre-paid is running low.

Cost of a dog bone - 80 baht

Cost of wife to take dog for a walk, feed and clean up shit - 50,000 baht

Time alone without anyone nagging - priceless.

Perhaps the circumstance in which you met your Thai gf has a lot to do with how she approaches a relationship and what she expects out of it. For example, if a hooker in the States decided to opt out of "the life" and pair with you (a reliable sign of attraction in most circumstances) but didn't have enough education or skills to get a decent job, she might expect financial support as well and you'd be dead wrong if you thought that inappropriate. If that's not the case here, self reflection might go a long way to learn what signals you're sending out. If you haven't resolved that then there is no geographical cure.

You should have bought the tits! If you kept the receipt, she would have to give them back when she left. Having the tits around on a night you don't feel like going out could work.

I bought my wife from her mother who promised I could get my money back whenever I wanted. She lied! So I've been stuck with her for 14 years.

New channels will start on February 5th.

Landlords have the right to inspect the property by giving 24 hours notice. But the renter has the right to agree to the time and date. Otherwise, a landlord is tresspassing if they enter the property.

Escrow is coming soon!.

Until you can buy a property off plan using escrow - don't do it. The only law involving condos and foreigners is that foreigners can't own more than 49% of the units in the buidling.

You've probably let her get away with murder, so be tack-full about the way you handle things.

Just in case you didn't intend to say tactful, can you advise where best to put the tacks? I put tacks on my teacher's chair in 4th grade and had immediate results - the class wasn't boring.

Dont understand the problem.

If you book online, you'll be sent a booking number by sms or email. You have 24 hours to pay; atm, 7-11, online transfer. Works fine.
