  1. Just buy the cheapest one, they are usually all the same anyway.
  2. If I were someone that "...not so long ago could climb a mountain..." and now I was unable to leave the house due to shortness of breath I would see a doctor and try to figure out what's wrong.
  3. Before one's account will be frozen, there will have to be proof of wrongdoing,
  4. In what country?
  5. If once account could be frozen just because someone reports a scam, everyone's accounts would be frozen. Something would likely have to be proven....
  6. So are you going to buy one?
  7. A lot of places you can't go with more than two axles.
  8. I looked that the Veloz and thought it was okay, my boy doesn't like it. I think it is the new Avanza and it's produced by Daihatsu. The Auto show is the end of this month, go walk it and see what you like. If the gen 3 Fortuner is there, I may get one and let the kid drive the old one. Forth gen Suzuki Swift might show, if so, I may get him that...
  9. Logically, if a vehicle is not taxed each year, when new registration is required, unpaid taxes are due. Did you file the appropriate paperwork twelve years ago stating it would not be used on the road?
  10. What do you call a vegan that doesn't put out? You don't
  11. What about it did you not understand?
  12. Well, just to follow-up, I ended up getting the implant at Bangkok Hospital Dental Center (BHDC) and it's been great. It was the Straumann implant with a "Roxolid SLA Active" crown. It was interesting that they did not do an impression for the crown but scanned my mouth and (I think) they 3D modeled the crown, or the mold for the crown. In any event, it fit perfectly from day one. It probably took six months to complete. I had a second implant done on a root-canal that went bad on the opposite side. This one (just got the crown today) was done at "Maha Chakri Sirinhorn Dental Hospital" (MCSDC) in Salaya. They used the same Straumann implant but did not scan my mouth for a digital crown. The crown was done using an impression. This one seems to fit perfectly as well. Implant and crown were about THB15K cheaper, but altogether probably THB20-25K cheaper. i Either place is great for implants, with similar quality work, but with MCSDH being significantly cheaper. I would highly recommend MCSDH for anyone on a budget on that side of town. It's a nice facility with good service and for more traditional dentistry they are probably 80-90% cheaper than BHDC,
  13. Yeah, I don't doubt that. Point?
  14. I complained about the checks.
  15. Try opening an account and see how it goes, $100 minimum might be fun is you can do everything online. Open a USD and a KHR with the same amount and see how they do. Might be interesting...
  16. Bank failure notwithstanding, there is also risk with currency fluctuation. My interest earning immigration account was a lot more attractive before the Baht went south and I started getting 3% in the US.
  17. So why are all the MBAs. MDs, RNs, PEs unable to pay off their loans? Last time I looked they made pretty good dough. Why did you include Social Sciences? That's hilarious.
  18. Problem: Not enough poor people getting university degrees. Solution: Provide government sponsored student loans. Result: Price of education skyrockets. Problem: Not enough ethnic diversity at universities. Solution: Lower standards to accommodate admittance of underrepresented ethnicities. Result: Many students admitted as a result of lowered standards do not graduate. Problem: Not enough students admitted as a result of lowered standards graduate Solution: Lower graduation requirements. Result: Employers no longer consider many college degrees of value. Problem: Not enough graduates have jobs that pay enough to pay down their loans. Solution: Forgive student debt. Result: Price of education skyrockets while the quality of education plummets. I think it's great!
  19. Will they give you that rate on a USD or THB account?
  20. It is worth noting that virtually all the shop houses in Thailand (of which there are many) have flat concrete roofs.
