  1. From the where to where? It has been my experience that transferring US$ from the US to Thailand is cheaper on larger transfers (>~$10K) using doing a swift transfer and having the receiving Thai bank do the exchange. I can't speak to Revolut or transferring from Europe, but I run the numbers every year to compare using swift from Chase bank in the US to Wise.
  2. Why? I think if you look at the number of years the market ends up, versus the number of years it ends down, one might say the opposite. That combined with the fact that the election is at the end of the year, and the new President does not take office until the following year makes the statistic largely meaningless. Now if they compared market gains in election years verses market gains in non-election years it might be worth looking at. The market usually ends up, that it usually ends up in election years is not surprising.
  3. You did not answer his question either. If you're transfering from your Thai bank to another bank, what does Revolut have to do with it?
  4. What is it you think Israel should be doing differently?
  5. Do you have any examples of "...the mushrooming "financial industry" outside of traditional banking/brokerage." that are not subject to any governmental control/legislation?
  6. You pay a flat rate to swift transfer the home country currency and let receiving Thai bank to convert to Baht. It is absolutely cheaper than Wise once you get above about US$10K
  7. It gets stuck down, likely in a unanimous vote. Anyone that can read can see the state court has no jurisdiction.
  8. 2-3M I would think swift is cheaper.
  9. If we are talking about notarizing signatures, the notary checks the ID of the individual and witnesses the signature, yes?
  10. How is election year defined?
  11. All the makeup and whatnot does not fit into their skin-tight jeans.
  12. So Agoda and the like getting rich on the backs of small hotel owners, good. And Starbucks getting rich selling coffee to people that like it, bad. Got it.
  13. It didn't happen in a vacuum...
  14. I'm a Brother fan as well. Most recent (DCP L3551CDW) is a couple years old. It's CS that the included toner cartridges only have a small charge, and ran out in about a year. The new ones last much longer, and costed 1,100 each.
  15. But it didn't happen in a vacuum, right?
  16. And the profits are nothing like they are claiming.
  17. Dude said he wants an all-in-one
  18. The poll that is the subject of this thread has nothing to do with whether or not Brexit was or was not a success, it only has to do with what the public's perception of whether or not Brexit is a success. I'm betting you would cite this poll as evidence that Brexit was a dismal failure, and that you would cite the Bidenomic polls as evidence that of how misinformed the public is.
  19. Did you mean you want laser or ink cartridges? Color laser all-in-one might be tough. Unless I wanted to do photos I would not have another inkjet.
  20. Don't forget...
  21. The pressure is less constant on the pumps with the bladder tanks on the bottom, but they should stay on constantly while you are using the shower. It seems to me that the higher wattage pumps provide a more constant flow than the lower wattage pumps. The pressure is more constant on the rectangular pumps with the smaller accumulator, but they will cycle more frequently. If you have a drippy faucet or leaking toilet, they may cycle quite a lot. If the plumbing inside the house is good, I would go with one of the rectangular "constant" pressure models.
  22. In the US, or at in California, drug and at least some violent crimes either go away after a while or are not disclosed.
