Lately we are getting more and more requests from people we hardly know to bail them out of these ponzi schemes. If they make a last payment, they'll get their money back is the narrative. I think there are tens of thousands of people who gave been suckered into these 'get rich quick' schemes. Harsch times make make people vulnerable. We feel sorry for them of course, but cant, dont want, to help. The Thai household debt, both with banks or dodgy lenders, is at record heights. A lot of people have sealed their fates with a life in poverty as debt slave as result. You cant fix gullible, naive, uneducated, desperate or plain stupid.

Homeschooling cost us more than it would cost to enroll them in a school, ss at least 1 of the parents needs to stay home.

Yes, even with yearly support to buy learning materials.

Are you for real?

One of the reasons we are homeschooling our children. I have worked in Thailand as a teacher in the past, and made a promise to myself to never enroll my kids in the fascist Thai education system. The wacking is just one, but the non stop yelling, looking down on kids, millitary style morning assemblies, and so on, convinced me. My kids are happy, are able to express their feelings, have no fear to talk to grown ups, travel a lot and develop so many other skills. They study just 1 hour a day (full focus), thats all whats needed to keep up with the curriculum. Good luck to the dinosaurs

So you wont eat any rice, vegetable or fruit in this country, restos included? You also wear an oxygen tank to not have to breathe in the occasional toxic air here in the Kingdom. Your water filters are topnotch, etc... Interesting!

Thats alright, you need to take the branches and seeds out first. The heating and filtering process will take care of any unwanted nasties. Thai btick, from respected suppliers, is awesome btw. Never had any issues with it. Gives a nice high for 2 hours and then done.... fresh again.

I bought 30 grams of ACDC weed for just 890 baht (how bizarre is that!). 15% CBD, 1 % THC, body relaxed, but clear head when smoked. I used it to make CBD oil and the result was superb, I got 200 ml of oil and a tablespoon makes me sleep like a log. The Thai brick weed, the 100 grams for 1,000 baht stuff, is ideal to make THC oil. Just be careful, as it's quite potent.

Interesting Netflix series about the Muay Thai gambling rings. Not really an Olympic sport imho. https://www.netflix.com/th-en/title/81579645

Remote working in Thailand is great with the 5/6 hour time zone advantage to Europe and the 10 to 12 to the US. Also, I pay just 10 dollars a month for a sim card that gives me fast enough mobile internet, so very flexible. Tax? Never paid it, home country doesn't want it as I don't live there anymore, and I certainly won't open Pandora's box here in Thailand. Work a couple of hours a day, grab a curry, and then off to the beach. For me: "Thailand number one"!

I need to learn how to decarboxylate the flowers in my air fryer and mix it in my pasta sauce. I dont like smoking, but love the effects.

No facts, just opinion. Not sure if you understand the difference mr Craig.

I think you have no idea about the addictive nature of smoking cannabis. Loads of people start smoking first thing in the morning and smoke easily 10 or more joints throughout the day, totally zoned out and deprived of any form of motivation or ambition. You would think it's not rocket science to understand that those who purchase a kilogram of weed, will smoke significantly more than those who buy a couple of grams to wind down. Your bulk purchasing comment and comparison to beer is hilarious. I take it is meant as sarcastic.

How would you know? Whether it's 10%, 18.99, 20% or whatever percentage, point is that for 1 kilogram of weed is just plain nuts and recipe for disaster.

As you can easily buy a kilogram of 19% THC Thai weed online, for less than 5000 baht mind you, it's pretty obvious that this whole Cannabis policy is a big farce. This can only go wrong. Smoking a joint is lovely, if legal, but having whole bricks to your possession will turn a lot of people in living zombies. It should have been regulated before opening up.
