???? Good luck with that

I remember first time I drove a Mercedes, suddenly everone turned their head around after me, and I got attention, and I enjoyed it for the moment. Not my car btw, because I never spent much energy on cars, but it was an eyeopener. I was used to attention out of other reasons, however never experienced it before driving a specific car. Im mot saying the same will happen in Thailand now, because they arent a rear view anymore, but I have to agree with several others here, you know when you driving a quality car, and that feels good to, at least for awhile and you get used to it. Same with motorbikes, several in here trying to convince others, scooters is as good as anything else ????

What makes you state such an insult?

Men who live in celibacy and also teach young boys, what can possible go wrong? People are people, and everyone have their weakness, and seems to be true for him to. Such institutions is a gift to pedophiles

Not exactly what I had in mind when read WWW (Wet Wild and Wonderful)

The main problem with cars and motorbikes, is service and parts when it comes to brands who are not produced in Thailand, especially when not living in BKK.

I had a few new BMW and Mercedes rental cars, and hands down in the same price categories Mercedes anytime, but For me in Thailand, I would rather save 4 million for other things, and buy a decent Japanese. How is Subaru priced in Thailand?

Any car with same specs is fun to drive, or Im missing something? What surprised me with BMW is the thight feeling and limited space, unless you where only two or one of the bigger series which I believe cost around 8-12 million In Thailand

Its only worth it if you can afford it.

Because you need something to get a grip on, and a change in life, and most likely it stimulate you as well give you focus and energy in the process searching and as well evolving. Most people is happy to open a beer to feel complete, others need something more ????

I think they ment falang tupid, thats the common thing whatever you complain about in Thailand.

Sharing personal experiences is suicide on this forum, havent you noticed ? ????

You have those who work at road construction who can not sell the wood, but they take orders for furniture, and thats how they make it legal, as well those carpenters who buy old houses, and make great furniture and kitchen from the old wood. Our neighbors in Hua Hin got a new kitchen built by one, and from what I could see, great work. You need to ask around,

You will make your gf/wife proud and happy, and make a happy life with no complications at all. Just carry on as you do, what can possible go wrong? Omg

Many westerns who come to thailand first time, seems to be stuck with first girl they meet in the bar or one of the first meetings, so what to expect? I would say, if you use your brain and your gut, there is many signs a girl is no good, even she is trying hard to convince you she is not like that. One to look out for, who constantly saying Im not like that, and love to tell what everyone else in the bar doing, but she is not. Most likely what she does. I do not understand what people thinking when picking girls from the bars, and expecting to have found gold after a few meetings and a few holidays, it takes years living together to find out if you two fit together and can live happy together, and it is not just up to her. For a girl bringing her future husband back to the village, it is a culture crash, where we foreigners do alot of mistakes, living with them in tourist areas without their family, many of them get bored and lonely and hard to get friends outside the bar environment which is also toxic, and last bring them to your home country? Well good luck, their image of rich westerns fade quickly, since they only seen the sunshine pictures and stories from their friends on social media, far away from the reality. You need strong bonds with your gf to succeed, and that takes some work from both of you. If you are not sure, you are sure! Last but maybe most important, if they have children, they make sure you bond with their child, and thats where many men become trapped, and start making excuses for not leaving a toxic woman.

You must be fun to be around

You can have a carpenter to make you a table.

I guess experiences do something with you, and I do not deny money is important and many Thais are greedy, especially in tourist areas against us foreigners. And then you experience those who help you, and do not want to take one baht from you, and it happens more often outside typical tourist areas. They also help you when buying stuff, warn you when the price is to high, and when your parents in law protects you from spending your money to, by setting example, helping your wife and never asked for anything. You park your car dirty, you come back and it is clean, they stay at our land 24/7 when we are not there and ask nothing in return. I pay them for their work, when they work of course, and also support them when they need something, but I have never been asked give money. When grandma needed a hospital bed home, we all contributed, and nobody expected the falang to pay The 6 500,- bath, which I could have done if I was asked by my wife. And those who think only falang being taken for a ride, thais is not protected from their own, they are extorted as much as foreigners.

We got our first 7/11 about 700 meter away now. Most of all, it is a great base for us, and she have her family 5 min down the road. We travel together quite often, and I also leave for work abroad. I could not invest there if I would become stuck, and I have other plans after 70 years old, but that is 16 years down the road, so those plans might change before that time. I also enjoy working on our farm when Im there and care for our animals as well.

Im quite sure they legally can not remove him physically, but I guess the right team will do it for you. If she owns the appartment, and the management is willing to help, there is an easy task, just change the locks, pack up his things and give him a time to pick it up. It should be possible to deny him to enter the condominium also, if he doesnt have his name on the appartment, but physically trow him out, is a police job. Not much to find on google If the tenant refuses to leave after the contract and/or the notice to vacate expires, the police can be called upon to forcibly remove the tenant. Landlords are not allowed to take abandoned appliances and furniture as compensation for unpaid rent and damages https://www.globalpropertyguide.com/Asia/Thailand/Landlord-and-Tenant

Cheap land and cheap house far away from Neighbors, a chef, cleaner and a younger loving wife, home bread and homegrown food and fresh air most of the year. Alot of space for toys and things That should sums it up + after 10 year a cheap rent and service included.

Security have no power, and it should be the police after court order remove him. If she owns the appartment, why dont she just change the locks? Court order can take time.

Never told her how much real estate dept I have ????

Thats quite a bold statement? So no environmental influence or damage at all? ???? We are pretty much brainwashed inside out, and to be true, even the truth spoken here about Thai women, or Isaan, is based mostly on what we heard, and when what we heard fits with our own experiences it becomes a truth. What we have in common, our women searched out western men, out of few reasons for instance lack of trust in Thai men being one strong reason, and not so far from many western men who search Thai women. We got the financial resources thats what differs us in most cases.

Well, there is a difference from getting your pride and face slammed to blow your head off with both triggers at the same time. What I said, I give her trust, but not access to all my savings and assets. If she is not satisfied with my contribution or Im not satisfied with her effort, the relationship or marriage will soon end. There is a limit for everything, but as long we manage to keep a healthy relationship with the resources we have, why complain and mistrust each other? From experience, we know when something is not right, and useally it takes awhile before you understand whats going on, but being paranoid doesnt help much either. As said many times by to many, but some never listen to, never invest more than you are willing to walk away from.
