  1. When are we going to go back to honor and the buck stops here. Did you see the hearing with Tulsi. All if them no we haven't read that security protocol. What worthless air breathers
  2. From a picture I saw of a hiso condo building in Thonglor with a bulging corner spanning many floors there are going to be many condemned. All these guys bragging about how many rental condos the wife and them own might be be hurting. I don't see how you can fix fractured support beams and columns cheaply or timely. Will it be cheaper to raze the building? Do the owners have any say in that. Who pays for a demo? More construction dust and noise in bkk incoming. Labor and material shortage.
  3. Deniers of bird flu. So some of you think a farmer or con ag should just let the barn with 10,000 egg layers infect the rest of his barns and nearby producers? They had to exterminate them just like they do pigs with swine flu. It has now taken 4-5 months to get more hens to begin laying eggs. It's stupid to blame any president on this disruption. Now if trump hadn't pissed off all our allies maybe some would have donated some eggs to help alleviate the pain some poor people felt. I bet most MAGA's spend 2x more on beers or white claws than eggs.
  4. Wife says lots of Thai's are thinking corruption in the government building that collapsed. I'm wondering if an unfinished building may not have all the earth quake devices installed yet? The videos of those tall buildings seating is incredible. It will be interesting how many residences will be condemned. Maybe now Thailand will be forced to deal with real humanitarian issues.
  5. As I watched the thousands of people fleeing in the streets and all those tall buildings looming 360 degrees it's so wonderful that 1 didn't come down into the crowded streets. Looking like renting a condo is much better than buying. I wonder how many expats lost their accommodations?
  6. How do they track these food carts and stalls or even a small % of restaurants ? I'm sure most thaid in all occupations don't report a majority of their income.
  7. To think that was even a scandal. Can't imagine a young intern doing that with Biden or much less trump
  8. I live near a fault that they say is due. I could loose quite a bit of my wealth. Makes one consider renting rather than owning ones living quarters.
  9. I wonder why that building under construction collapsed? So much less weight than finished and I thought the cement was the main structure? I wonder how many buildings will be condemned? And how did. cM fare being so much closer to the epicenter. Or was it the liquifaction zone of BKK that made it worse. I feel for those workers in the collapse.
  10. 50 Mil in deposit? I think it's crazy. Create these ultra exclusive places where the low paying can work and observe but only the super wealthy can enjoy. Pretty normal I guess. I can't imagine this being a good thing at all. Lots of tourists broke and can't afford their flight home. May create some new walking streets.
  11. I think pigtails look sexy, fun and youthful. To bad wife won't do them. Asian hair can be thick like hogs hair or fine like silk.
  12. I just don't understand the value in taxis. Most of us never use a taxi. I've taken maybe 6 ubers in my life to the airport. The only taxi I've ever taken in my life in the states was 1 or 2 during a weeks vacation in NYC. Oh and one family trip we took a taxi to from the airport in Florida . And. 1 way in Denver.
  13. Oh I'm positive. Positive that in 2 and more so in 4 years even most MAGA's will be educated in economics and realize their votes for trump and all these spinless Republicans was a disaster.
  14. Kathy wood the other day saying tesler would hit 26,000 soon. Robo taxis going online soon and blah blah blah. As of a few days ago at 240 they say 4 billion has been retail buyers. Hit 290 last couple days. Down 16 yesterday . Premarket 273 today. The highest P/E of any stock ever. What about the roadster that's 8 years late. And so many people not getting refunds on cancelled orders? Only 50 k CTs made of 1 million 100$ pre order deposits. 100% in recall. Elon bet on optics lidar. Sales off so much in all markets. US sales figures out April 4 th. I really think the name Tesla has been destroyed by Elon's political intrusion be in the US and Germany. He is sus as being behind Trump's talks of take NG over Greenland which haven't stopped. JD Vance wife's trip to Greenland a failure and warning. Trump recently saying "one way or the other" about gaining Greenland. Despite if the cars are good or if the country is ready for evs the Tesla owners are embarrassed to drive them now. I don't think a bit of MAGA support can help much. Only way Elon was getting approval robo and starship will be due his blatant firing of the officials. Most people don't know that this Mars that my is all just talk. It will take like 20 starship launches to get one orbiting starship ready due the trip and they need to send dozens before a manned version. Where would Elon find new baby mamas on Mars.
  15. This is exactly what is happening in the US. So many Chinese buying up rental property because they are smart and some have so much money and I think easily get family and investor money. I know several. Trump is a jerk and he bankrupts everything he touches. I think he has had many business leaders complain about tariffs other countries out on US goods. Yes he is losing us allies. It will be painfull for the lower economic people but in a few years maybe there will be a few more things manufactured here. Look at how already the NATO members are starting to pay and exceed there contractual 2% of GDP. The issue I see is I don't think there are many quality food workers that will be willing to staff these manufacturing plants. I guess we will see.
