Do you get money back from those 600 ml glass beer bottles ?
BTB1977 replied to FlorC's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Have seen some cheap old Europeans gather their empty beer bottles at a local restaurant a few times. After about 8 of them order 12 or more. Pay the bill. Off to their car for a plastic bag to take the empty bottles. I couldn't believe it. -
Definitely tell him. I have told several. Most get mad at me and I'm the evil one. But at least I can sleep at night knowing I tried to help, but the idiot didn't listen. I parted ways with most of them because it's like watching a train wreck in slow motion. If I see them I just ask so how much did she get out of you this month??? And I don't need that in my life here.

American tourists spend more money than Europeans in Thailand: survey
BTB1977 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Europeans are just cheap. I see it every day. Witnessed some Europeans 3 or 4 times drinking beer at a restaurant and collecting the empty bottles to take home and sell at the recycling center. <deleted>. Another guy I know is always complaining about the prices. If he has to pay for ice he never goes back. Always pointing out how his Chang beer is 3 to 5 baht cheaper than my Leo. Never understood the opposition with the price of things. -
If your worried about a bar girl cheating you out of your money. Rest assured normal thail girls will do the same.

Why is police extorting money news. Everyone I know have been asked to pay money to get out of ticket. Including me. The city I live has many well known streets you don't go down after a few beers. 5,10, 20 thousand is the going rate for smelling like beer. We have a local Facebook page set up just for reporting check points that spring up. Very helpful

Dutchman Petitions Ministry Over Alleged Swindle By Female Civil Servant
BTB1977 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Been with thai wife 6 years. I still have control of my money. And always will. She has a good standard of living without me transferring money to her on a monthly basis. Everything I/we have is in my name. She will be taken care of after I am gone. She just doesn't know how much. -
My thai wife? We're not legally married = girlfriend.

I was so glad when this guy in the video left Hua Hin. His videos were just like fingernails on a chalk board. A self proclaimed expert about everything. -
Biden heads to the border for the first time as president
BTB1977 replied to Scott's topic in World News
I love reading the democrats responses here. Remember it was them that fought to stop the building of the wall and let illegals just walk on over. But now that they have a Democrat president that does nothing it is now the Republicans fault. -

Female Thai Student Attacked On San Francisco Bus

Because the article said a "Thai student". It did not say an American student. -

What Thailand YouTubers Are You Watching (2023)
BTB1977 replied to NotReallyHere's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
I watch some of the ones mentioned but like many have said all repetitive. One channel that is pretty basic meaning no bells and fancy video editing is Sasi May and Bruce. From what I gather it was started for his wife to have an additional income stream. Any revenue belongs to the channels owner. His wife. They have just over 900 subscribers and need 1,000 before she starts receiving any money. Best of luck to them. -
You don't describe you girlfriends position. Virgin? College grad? Age? Kids? Divorced? My wife is 45, 2 kids and Divorced= no sinsod. She said her thai husband paid 35,000 baht. And a little gold. He was a painter at the Toyota factory. I paid for a small village wedding. Food, drink and music cost about 25,000. I pointed out this was for religious/ Buddha only. Can't have their daughter living in sin now can we.

My mother in law passed this year. Total cost a little under 100,000 baht. 5 days total. Donations and the village fund covered all the expenses. There was also a fund they paid 200 baht each time someone died. In all over 360,000 baht. The family is not rich by no means. I agree if you donate 30,000 baht you will probably have donated the most of everyone. Just make it clear to your wife your not supporting a crazy expensive funeral .

The one on the right looks female. But the other two have many manly features. Not necessarily my cup of tea

Row Erupts After 2 Houses Are Built On Wrong Land Plot
BTB1977 replied to webfact's topic in Central Thailand
Pay the fines, put up a fence/ wall. Lock it up and finish the build . File some kind of trespass judgment against the builder and the woman who wanted this plot of land over the one she actually bought. My guess she did this as she felt entitled to it. I would also put a 10 million baht price on it . Up to them to buy or not. But at least you tried to resolve the problem they created.
