Well said and very true...I really need to focus on the last part for sure...thanks

Thanks for that😀...and yes, i will do just, as well as invent a story why the money is not available...

Thank you for the info...regarding the 3 mil baht being returned to me...is there a way you could suggest to secure the repayment of the loaned money, like some sort of security or legal paperwork to document the money trail that would hold up in court if it came to that...sure hope you'll get back to me on this...thanks again

Thank you all for the genuine replies...I have another question tho...if i were to loan the 3 mil baht, is there some way legally where I can security or have recourse if the money was not being repaid to me???...again thanks

My Thai wife wants to sell a property she and her cousin own which has a mortgage...they want to purchase another property but need to sell the mortgaged property first...they are now pestering me to loan them 3 mil baht to payoff the mortgage claiming the property cannot be sold while there is a mortgage on it...I explained to them that, sure it can be sold, just that the mortgage will be paid off first to the mortgage holder...they claim that is not how it works in Thailand... Any views or insight into their claims guys?? Thanks in advance... JB

Will check it out, thanks😀

Hi All...My GP in NZ sent me to a EMT specialist to look at a lesion on my ear...he claimed it looked like a form of skin cancer, in particular, basal cell carcinoma☹️, and set me up with an appointment for a biopsy 4 months down the road...can you believe that!!!...anyways, i'm here in Thailand for the next 6 months and want to deal with it now...I would really appreciate if anyone on this forum could recommend a clinic or Dr...btw, i'm in Udon Thani and willing to travel to BKK, no problem😃

False...they always take care of their own

Hope so!!!...at 75 i'm full-on accelerate!!!...hell, i'm gonna vote super hard for Kamalc**t 3 times, one at each of my USA addresses...

Hmm, not families...mostly just single military age men...wonder why???

Patton was right!!!

Yes, for Russians, truth and honor are seen as a weakness to be exploited...

Please keep us posted...we're all waiting to know how well it works out for you...or not!!😃

Altho many of us will not have to pay additional tax, we will still have to file, which will mostly be done by accountancy firms...a real windfall for them!!!...the way i see it, the banks will hold back 15% of our offshore deposit and we'll have to file in order to have it returned...

Apologies...not meant for you specifically, just the chart...

Who care about the double tax agreement when my country NZ, doesn't charge capital gains on property sales and Thailand charges something like 39% on capital gains...big loss for me as i see it...

Hey, how about you define your version of "right wing"???

Very true...and also look into who made up the bulk of the Bolsheviks, especially a guy named Yagoda...

Ok, Ok...good analysis and a good point as well, thanks

Thanks all for you input????...altho i would like to direct some of my savings to Thailand, where i have a wife and young daughter, i just can't bring myself to put it in an account earning -1% when in NZ here i have the deposit sitting at 6% on a 6 month term...i could probably find a better rate in Thailand but i'm sure it would be way to risky for my liking and for this time in my life as i'm 75 y.o....

Yes, i've seen that, but i'm asking for recommendation and/or maybe other options...as well, the bank site to which you're referring desplays the rates in a format that not clear to me...thanks for the suggestion tho????

Hi All...i am looking for a Thai bank that has a decent rate for term deposits...hopefully i can get a bit of serious advice here...thanking you all in advance????

I like the use of the word "tribe",,,right on point!!!
