  1. I was hesitant ot use poison because I thought they would die up in the roof, but then I discovered they come out of the roof area and go outside to find water. After trying several supposedly clever traps that did not work, I found poison quickly did the job. Takes about three or four days. If you have any dogs you need to be careful, because they wil pick up and play with, dead animals.

     

  2. Amway is a multi-level marketing company, which basically means it is a pyramid scheme.

     

    Their goods are ok quality, but not special, AND expensive. Not crazy expensive, but expensive. 

     

    They make the lions share of their money from the various sales associates they have, that buy product for themselves...

     

    Very few people do well "money wise" working for them.

  3. Hi,

    I asked before, but I failed to "follow" the topic, so not sure if I got a reply or not....

     

    Bob, I would love to see an actual photo of you, and it seems like you to not have a profile on FB, is that correct?

     

    Is Bob Smith a fictitious name?

     

    Will the real Bob please stand up!!!

     

  4. Just getting back to Thailand now....

     

    I lived in Japan for 30 years. A very complex society to live in...

    In the countryside, not more than 1% of people will speak English.....

    I have not read the many posts- But likely it has been said that the term "smart" has changed drastically in meaning over the last 20 years or so. IQ tests are no longer considered of real importance by most folks in the know, and for a lot of people, in the past, "smart" just meant someone with an opinion, and someone that likes to talk pejoratively about others..... Japanese people are not known to be great conversationalists.

    Unless you study one of the many, great, Japanese arts, and in a serious manner, you will likely be greatly disappointed in Japan. 

     

    The countryside can be very cheap, and also, beautiful.

  5. My experience with them was horrendous. I hesitate to say much because of libel laws here in Thailand. 

     

    They are not formally doing business in Thailand, so you have no recourse if things go south. 

     

    I am certain that they did not choose me as the one client they will not properly service, so I can only assume that other clients also wind up feeling cheated.

     

    I took an 80k policy, because in researching medical costs in Thailand I discovered that even if I had cancer and a heart attack in the same year, the cost would not be more than about 50k.
