  1. none of them are fast. and in a thai town you don't want go fast. what you need is a practical scooter that is easy to ride, easy to park, easy to refuel,... and the grand filano tick all the boxes. pcx is smaller under the seat , no place between legs... more power but in town, it s not a requirement.

    scooter is not a waste of money as you will use it for shopping , go beach, go malls... . so whatever you choose it s well invested money . and maintenance cost nearly nothing. oil change 100 bahts. it s all it needs.

  2. I m still laughing at these idiots who need to go home to work as a blue worker when they had over 1 million $ and spent all their money in whiskey and girls.

    now they are in deep shit at 55 or 60 years living with soup in a 3000 bahts condo.

    they had the high life but they thought money was still coming when in fact they suck all their money from their bank account and never realised that one day, their money is gone... all spent.

    these idiots you see them miles away...

  3. I meet people here who have millions of dollars. So far they seem like normal people.

    this is how smart people get rich.

    if you don't believe me, do you think rich people give their money around? . if they were giving their money around them, they won't have any money left unless money cone from the sky.

    people showing their money and spending won't stay rich very long as their money go down little by little. I know couple who parties and bought nice cars, put their kids in private schools, now they need to go work and getting older it s harder and harder.

    I know another guy who wanted the hiso life and build a big house to discover at the end, he got nothing. he lost all.

    I see plenty of farangs who are going to be scamed by a lady or by their gay partners. they all think they are smarter... in fact they have already spent all their money and their house worth no more than the price of second hand bricks.

    the smart guy is the guy who keep his money outisde Thailand and use only what he needs.

  4. pilots in Thailand can not even calculate a drift, can not demonstrate and recover from a stall.

    their flight schools don't teach them at icao standards.

    they don't know what is a minimum descent altitude, or a go around. go missed approach is not in their vocabulary.

    even holding entries is mystery to most of them.

    ils approach mean they go down until they see something.

    they don't follow the glide.

    last time I was on an airbus, very slow approach.. I could feel the plane shacking due to stall speed. it took at least 20 seconds for the pilot to add a little of speed.

    in aviation, speed and altitude are your best friends.

  5. Go to Tuk Com and get one of the guys there to repair it. Take it to one of the guys there who is actually repairing there and then. In front of you.

    After you've had it repaired, throw it in the bin and get yourself an Android phone.

    Android has no I message, no face time. in 2 years your Android become slow and lose it s value. my iPhone 4S rocks.

    departure hôtel at 9am. arrival in UK at 0100(13h flight) battery still at 20 percent with few I message, music...

  6. I stayed at the hotel next to the Hooters in Bangkok. I checked the menu and the prices they are charging are even more than they charge in the states. I assume their business will be off of tourist that know nothing better about prices. I suppose it has to do with import taxes or something ? But the prices are just plain stupid. We will see how long they remain in Thailand.

    nothing to do with import tax. chicken are Thai. ladies are Thai, BBQ are Thai, ...

    they just charge more because you guys love so much this kind of place.

    want boost your business? hang a US flag and zombies will come.

  7. You can live her very cheap but that means you have to live like a local and will 100% need to learn the language. If you cant speak Thai you will mostly like to pay more...on most occasions. But another bad news is that you don't get the Thai prices on National Parks anymore even if with work permit and Non O visa extension sad.png . I used to get Thai prices at National Parks for years but now they don't give me that anymore. Easy makes your National Park weekend trips a few thousand baht more expensive. Also makes me feel very stupid when I pay 3-4 times more then my Thai partner even if I can speak Thai very decent and in general do all the speaking...

    and one day thais will pay more. what they do to us, will happen to them.
  8. 30,000 baht per month is what you would pay in rent in the west

    I live in Washington State and what you can get for B30,000 is just so-so, not very special. For B30,000

    you can get a nice 2 bedroom condo on the beach in Jomtien.

    for 30k you can get a nice house, with swimming pool and jacuzzi inside Thailand on a quiet place not too far from a big town. can even employ someone.

    for 8k I have found nice houses in udon.

    faranglands have a system of living based on debt. so cannot compare as the rules are rigged.

  9. I live with 10k.

    4k room

    4k food

    1k visa

    1k for the rest.

    no health care, health care is for sissies

    no alcohol

    no smoke

    and my life is better than in the USA. no need to work. Beach all day, movies, shopping mall, and fresh air. can go fishing, watch TV, ....
