  1. Well said, it's a cesspit of human trash and it ain't worth your time or money.
  2. Now, reorder this taking into account population size. Thailand would be top. Also, I am sure it isn't counting Thailand's plethora of online freelancers and sideliners who hold down regular full time jobs or studies, nor the fact that almost every regular masseuse in the country offers you a handy with an oil massage and will drop her knickers for the right price. Thailand is actually #1 for sure. This is what they excel at.
  3. One does wonder why she was adjusting her security camera the day before her death. Death by gunshot, also a very unusual suicide method for a woman.
  4. It's definitely cheaper than most of the West, but it ain't dirt cheap anymore.
  5. Just cos they don't support Ukraine, doesn't mean they support Putin.
  6. You've really mastered the art of writing with no meaning, haven't you?
  7. So, does he want to tax unrealized gains or not? What you wrote tells us nothing.
  8. This isn't a really good response. Not all laws are easy to comprehend and there are a lot of technical loopholes. Google also has a lot of inaccurate information, so you need to be sure you have a good source. Also, what about before the Internet? Go to a library? How many books would you need to read to understand all laws? It also requires a level of intelligence many people don't have. My grandparents don't have smartphones or computers.
  9. Well, that's easier said than done. We don't all have law degrees and the law ain't always logical, intuitive, or just.
  10. If he had paid only 100 for a 400 fare it would be the driver going after him for more money. Seems like the driver was pretty happy with what he was paid, but the customer thought he was owed change. Seems like a clear cut case of another scumbag Phuket driver keeping the customer's change; like that hasn't happened before, lol
  11. I think there's only one definition of scam. Lol Makes a pittance? It's very common for them to keep the change off a 500, claiming you gave only 100. 500 a ride ain't a pittance. Yes. A scam is a scam. Blatant theft in most cases.
  12. AI is already being used in the British public sector. The NHS is already using Palantir.
  13. Exactly. They are basically spending our money on other people. Why should they?
  14. You can pay class 2 or class 3 national insurance while working abroad, like I am now. It's more expensive than class 1 (working in UK), but still. They also just allowed me to backpay 14 years of missed contributions since I left the UK.
  15. Suppose they left 40 years ago then hit their pension age, would they be started on the pension rate from 40 years ago?
  16. I thought they were freezing pensions to what they were when you left the country
  17. Anyone got a link to the exact details about the changes taking place from January 25?
  18. Yes, but British people generally have zero clue about investing and if they live just a few years after retirement age, they've made their money back. I do agree with you though
