Believe women!

Al Gore is rich, all made from carbon trading. Bill Gates and Jeff Bezos are usually quoted as the richest guys, as left wing as you can get without being a communist/Marxist with no connection to fossil fuel as far as I can see. Elron Musk, also rich makes electric cars.

Better ask the OP, he trusted his wife and she stole $25k US from him. I don't trust my wife, but I live with her because I like banging her.

All BS. Hottest day on record globally 56.7c Death Valley 1913 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Highest_temperature_recorded_on_Earth#:~:text=According to the World Meteorological,States%2C on 10 July 1913. Record low antarctic ice was 2012 (3.39MsqMi), this year 4.5M. https://climate.nasa.gov/vital-signs/arctic-sea-ice/#:~:text=The animated map below shows,lowest in the satellite record.

My mortgage repayment is 10kbht (225 pounds), and I bet it's a nicer house (3bed overlooking countryside). Prices for housing in the UK are crazy. Did I mention the car insurance on my pickup is 500bht (12 pounds).

The rules are, after a court judgement they can't own land, vehicles or a bank account for 5 years. So a quick change of ownership for the land/mc/car before the judgement. Any other belongings (outside the named loan item) are safe from seizure. Then after 5 years the loan is written off and they can start again.

2,500bht entry fee seems a little pricey!

No, the big mistake was trusting your wife. Don't know how you can live with a woman that stole 20,000GBP ($25,000UD) from you. Guess you'll need a trip to Savannahket where you can buy a 1 year multi non-o for 5,000bht and no money in the bank.

Google routinely disappears documents that were easily available in the past.

You remember or have copies of the original documents published at the time? Or you are reading the revised data published on the internet today?

I was making News & current affairs shows for the BBC at the time (White City & Lime Grove). Place was full of scientists being interviewed about the coming ice age.

Accommodation is way more expensive in Vietnam than Thailand. How do you expect to stay in Vietnam with no long term VISA on offer?

And BigC, and Makro.

What resources do you think are running out? Peak oil, supposed to happen in the 2000s ..... nope, more oil now than ever before. Food running out predicted to happen in the 1990s ........ nope, more food available now than ever before. The problem being most of the sheep are completely gullible and believe whatever their overlords choose to tell them, even though those same overlords told them the complete opposite 10-20 years back. No resources are currently running out! Well, maybe electricity in Europe, but that's because your governments chose to betray you and jump on the 'green' total control of the population bandwagon.

Yep, they've rewritten history to match their new power play. But I was there in the 1970s and I remember all the ice age predictions.

I remember in the 1970s and they were predicting an ice age. Hard to reconcile the numbers predicting an ice age, are the same as the numbers predicting overheating. So I'm guessing Zeke Hausftaher is a liar and you're spreading misinformation.

And your personal home and transport consumption? I'm betting electricity 3,000bht+ and you're driving a Fortuna (or other gas guzzler). Climate change alarmists are always hypocrites! And always want someone else to pay for their beliefs.

I'm not sure global warming 1. is caused by human activity 2. is undesirable. 3. can be changed by human activity If I were the government, I'd prefer to spend money on housing the homeless than paying billions to carbon traders. Anyway IPCC doesn't seem to think sea level rises are a significant risk. I'm hoping Natwest/Coutts aren't going to cancel my bank account for this post. I don't really believe in insurance either, beyond government regulations. I have minimum insurance on vehicles, no house insurance (beyond mortgage requirement), no health insurance. As for drinking, first wine cooler of the day already half finished. By the way I live in a home mainly powered by solar cells (PEA bill usually around 200bht), and drive a Honda Click 160i (53Km/ltr) which I'm guessing is far beyond any conservation you do.

I'd buy a beach house if they were cheaper. Risk of flooding doesn't seem to worry Bill Gates or Barak Obama, and they probably have better information than us.

So don't build or live in flood areas, fire areas, and don't buy insurance. This is common sense. PS. IPCC report AR6 dated 2022 states there is only a moderate risk (1 in 4) of coastal flooding in the next 77 years.

No banking on your phone then. The world is moving to phone banking.

No retirement VISA in Vietnam, you either have to work there or marry a local. Da Nang beach is really nice for swimming though. But if you want the full 'single guy' experience, Saigon is the place to be and you need to take the ferry to Vung Tau for the swimming.

I attended loads, never that much fun.

I blame the women who teach their kids to hate their father. This is a vile practice pursued by many vicious divorced western women, and financially rewarded by the authorities.

Apart from not watching sport on TV I pretty much followed that life.
