I have bought 3 new cars in Thailand for cash. I always got a discount, 1 yr free insurance and a few freebies. Maybe BMW/Mercedes think that only peasants ask for such incentives.

I keep mine at 800k with a buffer all year round. I know it wastes money i could get on interest elesewhere but it keeps it simple with no chance of slip ups if i forget to top up at the right time.

Look on Youtube. One of the vloggers here Ride4Kicks did a video on a driving school located next to the Bangkok Pattaya Hospital. Seemed professional and much better than the standard "school" you would find in Pattaya.

China is looking to flood the world with their over capacity of crap EVs. Thailand no doubt will be happy to accept anything if it brings in some cash.

In March 2020 i had a root canal and crown fitted on a tooth at the back of my mouth, cost 16,100 in total. I think that's a better option than extraction. I think it took 3 visits. Now maybe 20,000?

Maybe they were water pistols?

Is it really only the 17th. 3 more f...... days to go before i get my life back.

Who would want to go 17-19th and get soaking wet?

When you are old, fat, poor and don't speak thai how many "normal" gfs would be interested?

You want to borrow 100,00 but have to send THEM 103,750 !! On what planet would anyone do this?

I was in the dentist the other day and some guys came in for treatment with no shirt on. What a moron. I can't believe they actually treated him! I had to sit in the same chair after his sweaty body.

Just like the New Zealand guys who will end up getting deported and blacklisted. All for a few hundred baht.

The TM6 in my passport is slowly falling to bits with age. What do i do when it crumbles to dust?

How addicted to something do you have to be that you can't go a few hours without a hit (and risk massive fines/jail).

Yes without this could you just circulate the same 65k Month 1 send 65k from the UK to Thailand, draw in cash and deposit in another bank, send the 65k back to the UK Month 2 send the same 65k to Thailand....... repeat

Looks like i will never visit Phuket again.

How can time banking work unless everyone's labour (and hence salary) is valued the same? In which bank are the credits held?

My tgf had some good gum graft work done at the dental department of the Phyathai Hospital Sri Racha.

Must have cost them $100 million in legal fees over 30 years.

Yes i was wrong it's not 20,000 it's 28,700. 2250 for the car plus the cheapest room 12,600 plus the return. BA by the way quoted me 21,200.

My tgf lost her keyless fob for a Click. Yes you can get it started but it's a very complicated process entering lots of numbers in the precise order.

Same here, 18 years, i can't remember Beach road ever been in a complete finished state.

Just as expensive as BA, Basically you can't get to Samui and back for under 20,000 baht. That's more than the actual holiday costs. I can fly to Krabi or even rip off Phuket for 5,000.

This is surprising as no "quality" tourist can go out to eat in a restaurant without getting soaked.
