  1. Why not just use tap water, wait a couple days and throw a few fish in it?
  2. Hunter is in recovery!!!!!!!!!!!!
  3. You seem to know very little of the job market in the US. "Finacial Services" with a master's degree in history from Harvard will get you a job making $50K a year at the bank selling investment vehicles to chumps. "Finacial Services" with a master's degree from Harvard in math will get you a job making $200K a year as an actuary at an insurance company. stem vs non stem salary - Google Search
  4. Which are you? In any event, all of those require competence in math.
  5. So, what are all the high paying jobs you get speaking English?
  6. It has been my experience, that my insurance (Health Net, Cingna and BCBS) would often pay claims they did not have to when resubmitted. In the over twenty years I was covered, I never had a legitimate claim refused.
  7. So, if math is 6/10 important, and if we assume that 10 represents all that is important, can we not say that math is most important?
  8. I never said I thought the child should be studying math 4.5 hours a day Homer, you made that up. What I said was, that I understood the wife's position, and that I thought math was important. You (apparently) think math is unimportant and as long as you give your kid a bunch of money when they turn 18, they'll do great.
  9. I use a dedicated account (Krunsri Mee Tae Dai), it is not fixed and earns about 1%. I like having internet banking so I can round it down to the same number the morning I update the book at immigration. Up until recently, it was earning better interest than my US accounts.
  10. Which one is your home county?
  11. Yeah, the children of wealthy people that are given everything they want most always turn out better than that kids that have to work for it.
  12. Or unless you want to be a doctor, physicist, chemist, engineer, dentist or scientist of any kind. And the public was better versed in math, there would be fewer loan-sharks, and government could not get away with so many boneheaded schemes.
  13. My sisters hated it also, but they all love playing now, and are happy they did. You suffered in silence to please your mother as a good son should.
  14. You're right of course, math is a waste of time. My bad.
  15. Given how much a better value EVs are and how only really stupid people still buy ICE cars, the subsidies have done what they need to do and it's time for them to end.
  16. Translators do not make much, and are making less all the time with AI. Perhaps you meant interpreters? No one is passing chemistry or physics without strong math proficiency, and you have to do very well in math to get into a rigorous discipline at a decent school. Assuming you mean far more practical, yes? Again, the child being immersed in English from birth should take care of English is the father puts any effort into it.
  17. If one's goal is to work the desk at a five-star hotel perhaps. Even then, if the father is a native English speaker, it should not be a significant issue. In much the same way that the last four yards of a foot-race are what matters.
  18. Again, what specifically would you have the police do? What law is being broken by the boy and/or his mother? In any event, I doubt your obvious contempt for the mother and (apparently) Thais in general is helping anything.
  19. What specifically would you have the police do? Saying enforce the law, or that the child must be returned by law is a non-answer. Again, you are going to have to bite the bullet and perhaps grovel a bit to get on reasonable terms with the wife. She holds all the cards, except that she cannot physically keep the child from you, which she is not doing.
  20. Perhaps the mother knows/thinks that unless the child is very successful, without the right "connections", life can be pretty tough. How old are you are how old is the wife? The wife may think she will end up dependent on the child long after you're gone. I would much rather my kid be doing homework than getting loaded.
  21. No doubt Trump planted it there before he left with the nuclear codes... (just kidding)
