Thai hot air,I would just forget about it.who would want one anyway.got to find 2,200,000 more to leave in the bank,get some medical insurance,report every 90 days and renew it in 5 years,so it ain't even a 10 year visa.think about it and you'll come to the same conclusion.

You should be able to send the money to yourself via Western Union just before you depart Brazil. The WU receipt would be your confirmation of the money's origin.
Or, you could come here, open an account, and arrange a "pull" wire transfer. This might require having a discussion with your local bank before departure.
Don't do western union,they will give you a shocking rate and you will lose at least 10-12% of your transfer.if it's in a bank try uk forex.very safe and the best rates around.i used them this year @ £10,000 a day max transfer.

Dob them in and do them a favor.
You nearly got that right but it's more like..dob them in and do all of us a favour.we don't need them here as much as the Thais don't.thank god we have the fear of the immigration detention centre or else the land would be flooded with overstayers.

No idea and I didn't ask him. knowing the man there would have been a good reason(s). But it's not my buisness. He's a good friend and a good man is all I can say about him. I did tell him I would post his story on here he just laughed and said things that are not repeatable on here but I had to agree with him. He is no l9nger a member on here (well I suppose he is as we have no way to cancel membership other than staying signed out.
You say he's a good friend and good man.if he was a good friend you would of heard this story of 5 yrs overstay before now.as for good man,someone who stays in a country as a illegal immigrant and greases the had of corrupt officials is exactly what the Thai government are trying to fight.theres no good reason for 5 yrs overstay.its just taking the pee out of the system.

I know a group of overstayers in Bangkok, and between the 4 of them, have an accumulation of more than 20 years total overstay. A Brit with 13 yrs, a Finnish with 9 yrs, and other 2 other Brits on 4 yrs and 1 yr. One has major mental issues, another an admitted alcoholic whose family has given up on him because of big sums of money sent to him on numerous occasions, so he can arrange for Emergency Travel Document, passport expired, a O/W ticket to UK and funds to cover his 20K baht fine at Imm. On all occasions the money has been squandered on alcohol and gone within weeks. 2 have no family support and are living on the street and relying on locals generosity for food and drink. What should I do, because I'm feeling guilty about their situation? Do I dob them in, giving them free lodgings at the Imm. Detention Center until their families can pay for all associated costs to get them home? Or do I sit blindly by and do nothing? The BIB can be either stupid or blind and ignore or turn a blind eye to these long overstayers, who maybe lucky enough to shower weekly, and wash their clothes fortnightly.
No sympathy for them mate.people like myself have to obey the rules and keep 800,000b stuck in the bank to stay here.whatever their problems are could be sorted out in their home countries.i would just leave it and forget about helping someone who don't want to help themselve.if it wasn't for people who you have mentioned maybe the immigration might of lightened up on tourists and I wouldn't have to have a mass of my savings sat dormant in a bank until I die.good guys in,bad guys out as far as I'm concerned.
McDonald's are charging non Thai speakers more??
