Why not Thai Baht? Plenty of YaBa, YaIce, prostitution money not to mention government skimming that all needs to appear legit. There was a big name foreigner restaurant chain in CM well known for being a front for money laundering. Thailand is floating in a sea of local and international money laundering. Not sure nail salons/hairdressers/coffee shops would have enough potential turnover to be of interest. More like restaurants, shopping malls, and weed shops (seen plenty of these empty for years).

My previous 5y Thai license had Thai only. My new 5y Thai license (from March) has Thai and English.

How fast the final curtain can fall.
BritManToo replied to swissie's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
All my male ancestors were either dead or demented by age 70. I'm 67 and not expecting much more time, but hoping for the death option over the demented option. I'm not a believer or an atheist, more a don't really care. -

No he doesn't. -
This is the one I have (but with a Suoer label on it). https://www.lazada.co.th/products/grid-tie-inverter-scl-fti-d1000b-1000vafti-d600b-600va-monitor-pure-sine-i2481341480-s8742948948.html

Same deal with my Brit wife. Except she had me escorted away and kept my home. The sudden exits are a woman thing, not a hooker thing. When I see the 'bargirls bad' posts, I think to myself this guy never managed a LTR in his home country.

The bad actors in Thailand’s cannabis industry
BritManToo replied to george's topic in Thailand Cannabis Forum
Agreed with most of your post, but would suggest at 500bht/gm many would like to see and smell the product they are being sold. I didn't even buy from the guys sitting on m/cs outside Thai/Khmer/Viet clubs without smelling the $10 bag contents first. -

That's true, all my professional associates in the west preferred cocaine. The company parties even provided alcohol and cocaine free to guests. -
Never had a problem finding a gf/wife in the west. The problem was always that I couldn't afford to lose my home and keep starting over again with nothing.

The bad actors in Thailand’s cannabis industry
BritManToo replied to george's topic in Thailand Cannabis Forum
I don't think cannabis will make Thai society worse than it already is. Road safety, morality, social values ............. non-existent. Corruption ........ pervasive at all levels of government, business and society. Prostitution .......... every where. Domestic violence ......... completely out of control. But the petty theft that makes our western societies so unpleasant is surprisingly almost completely absent. I'd choose to live here just to avoid the random muggings, stabbings and break-ins that are rampant in the UK. -

My local weed shop is in a 100%Thai area full of students and middle class Thais. I've never seen a customer in there EVER, guess the owners are the same people that own Top Charoen opticians.. -
Thai Expert Explains High Electricity Bills in Thailand
BritManToo replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News Headlines
Mostly wind turbines in the UK as there's not much sun. The solar farms tend to go bust at huge expense to the local authorities that invested much taxpayer money in them. This was 53 solar farms ....... not one, so 53 security guys and panel cleaners. https://www.energylivenews.com/2023/01/04/solar-firms-debt-to-local-authority-rises-to-692m/ -
I bought 2 of the lamps I use in 2020 (start of COVID). It's 2023 now and they are both still fully functional, no dead LEDs.

Permission of freedom to marry (required for Thai marriage) from the Laos consulate/Embassy wouldn't be granted. But apparently they could get married in Hong Kong, but it wouldn't be legit in Laos, so the man would never be able to enter that country without risking arrest.
-
You can delete the ? and everything after it from links, the extra is just personal data collection. I haven't used those multi-bar type lamps, but they look legit at 4,000bht.

Here's a link for you to read .......... https://www.laoslife.info/marriage-in-laos/#:~:text=Marriage in Laos for Foreigners&text=Actually getting married to a,of local and provincial authorities.

Didn't think it was possible for a white foreigner to marry a Laos girl. Many difficult hoops to jump. Better to see if you CAN marry her before you discuss money.
-
If you don't care it's definitely cheaper to buy brick at 3kbht/kg. Don't waste money on anything apart from the lamp! Remember, you can't go away for 3 months when you start growing. Most people give up and get ZERO ROI.

I'm producing a decent crop with no air-con. But the current 40c isn't good for growing cannabis, Nov/Dec/Jan was fine. I've about 6oz from my winter grow, cost me nothing but my time.

Says a millionaire! I think this interview sums it up nicely ..........

You forgot fame and danger, dangerous/famous men also attract women for sex. I on't agree they have any interest in intelligence, as I'm one of the most intelligent men in the world and it got me nothing. Can't really say about looks, as I don't have them. All the good looking white guy tourists I've seen appear to be dragging around very average (polite term) white women.
