Thailand Central Bank Blocks Additional 1% Fee on Credit Cards
Skeptic7 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Right. Or at least bring it down to something close to planet Earth...instead of in the greedy RIPOFF exosphere❗ -
Didn't see the poll in time (seems it had an extremely short lifespan) so didn't get a chance to partake. My vote is #2...Even if it goes ahead, I'm not planning to do anything differently. Just carry on as usual. Ignorance is bliss...especially here in the Land Of It. Until someone official knocks at my door with a tax bill...zero action on my part. And in the highly unlikely event that ever happens, then in typically ignorant Thai style...cue that silly Thai laugh "huhhuhuh mai roo...mai kao jai...bpen arai...tao rai?...huhuhuh".

Flip meet Flop. Right Hand this is Left Hand. Get to know one another. It's Deja Vu all over again. T.I.T. -
No prob at all. Your posts are always thorough and informative. 👍

Of course...common knowledge. But my reply was to the ignorant and erroneous claim that US Markets were in the midst of "tanking". They're not. Markets never go straight up...also common knowledge. Made my very tidy fortune in the US markets over 30+ years and retired early because of it.

I think I've discovered a new insect species
Skeptic7 replied to scubascuba3's topic in General Topics
Correct, but not "generally"...males don't "bite" at all. Nor spread disease. They are nectar feeders and sole purpose is to fertilize the female. Male lifespan is about a week. Females can live half a year. You prob know this already, but others may find it interesting. -

British Publisher Colin Hastings Dies in Chonburi Car Crash
Skeptic7 replied to webfact's topic in Pattaya News
Never met him, but he/they did publish a rebuttal I wrote to an article in Big Chilli Mag going on 20 years ago, when it was quite new. Gave it some nice props and welcomed my counter-argument graciously and with humor. Condolences to family and friends. 🌶️ -

Why the hush money case against Donald Trump is on shaky ground

Read it when it came out. No conviction is ever assured (think OJ "The Slasher" Simpson), but this case appears quite solid. -
