97 year old woman’s 3.4 million baht stolen by assistant in Thailand
From the linked article, "Initially, Jit was hesitant about trusting Thanapat due to his not-so-good reputation. However, she had no choice due to her advanced age and lack of assistance." It seems like there would always be a choice. Specially if she didn't trust him to start with.

Been donating to the temples for years now, still not healthy, wealthy, lucky or wise
A lot of monks also double as fortune tellers. Let them read your future. You might need a special ceremony to ward off the bad luck. My wife took me to one a few years ago. He said I was going to get very ill within the next year. So he did a special ceremony where I was ceremonial put to death and then reborn to change my future. It must have worked, I'm still here a few years later.

Ceramic coating
First, as others have said, don't believe their sales pitches about it protecting from chips and dirt just falling off. It does none of that. It does make it so you don't have to wax the vehicle to keep it shiny. When you buy it you are usually given a card with some free reapplications about every 6 months. You may be able to get a lower price for just a one time application.

I've had a fever for a few days.
If you have a viral infection antibiotics will not help. They are for killing bacteria. Overuse of them can make bacterial infections harder to kill off.

Do you do immigration business yourself? If so why?
I've always done it myself. There are no agents that I know of in Ratchaburi. Even if there were I would probably do it myself anyway. But I have no problem with people that do use agents if they want to.

Do 90 reporting or not
As others said they are separate from each other and you still have to do the 90 day report. You say you just extended and your 90 day report is in 3 days. If you did the extension within 14 days of the 90 day due date you could have done it at the same time.

Please Explain Sushi Prices
Most of the wasabi sold is not real wasabi. What is real wasabi and why you've probably never eaten it. From the article: A shocking number of sushi restaurants don't serve real wasabi: The Washington Post reports that as much as 99 percent of wasabi sold in the United States is fake. It's not just the U.S., either; experts estimate that 95 percent of wasabi sold in Japan is imitation, too.

Which rice to give
We took all the kids at an orphanage out to a restaurant to eat. They really enjoyed it. Some of them said it was the first time they had eaten at a real restaurant. We also donated some supplies to them, like rice, small milk cartons, etc.
