Indian Man Arrested for Selling Ice Cream Without Permit in Sa Kaeo
A lady from Myanmar was arrested a couple monthis ago in our small town. She was pushing a cart around selling coconut ice cream. She said they told her she couldn't work for herself and fined her 25,000 baht. She now works at a small restaurant owned by some friends of ours. I think she is paying 5K/month to pay off the fine.

Help & Suggestions please as next year I will have no UK address
Find a bank that will allow you to use a foreign address and phone number. Schwab international is one that you can use. The one thing about them is you need 25,000 USD to open an account (or the equivalent amount in stock transfered to your account with them. But you can also get a debit card with them that covers ATM frees. Also international wires are free (they show a $15 fee but immediately reimburse it. From US banks you can transfer money to them for free but I don't know about from a UK bank. You would have to ask them.

Is 1 million baht enough to retire in Thailand?
Use it to buy 800 shares of MSTY. That will give you a monthly distribution of 68k to 130K baht. And if bitcoin goes up like they are saying your principal should grow too. Of course if bitcoin were to crash hard it could be a disaster.
