EVENKEEL

Just repainted my house a bright pinkish color. Wouldn't do it in my home land, but here....why not. You're welcome to snap a picture anytime you like.

It is not  unaffordable if you look at the numbers. The data shows that the age group will have a frequency and severity of claims. These people will have to pay for it one way or the other if they stay here. They can place a catastrophic policy, or a self funded financial instrument to cover these expenses. It just requires financial planning and the means to do so. If they cannot afford the insurance, then they should take it as a message that they should not be in Thailand.  There are too many financially impaired people who refuse to take responsibility for themselves. They should go away. And to be blunt, if they were impoverished they should not have been having kids. That just highlights the selfishness of these elderly foreigners who impregnate  women at their stage in life. They won't be around to take responsibility for their offspring will they? They leave a legacy that reflects their lives as they lived it: Selfish and shortsighted.

Sooo, what do you consider the max age a responsible man should have kids?

Haven't read any explanation of how accident occurred.

I just left out of BKK 18 Mar and it was business as usual. No questions asked.

Back to the US till things improved in Thailand. Easy for me, a shocker for wife and kid.

That's a cool quote...undoubtedly made by a guy married to an ugly woman. 

I wouldn't know.

If you want to be happy for the rest of your life, never make a pretty woman your wife.

So they are no longer his friends?

They are no longer his "straight" friends. They are his homosexual friends, not that's there's anything wrong with that.

As a rule of thumb expect something near 25000 Baht  per year for road tax, compulsory insurance, and first class insurance for a 1500 cc car. First class is about18,000+ but highly recommended for the peace of your mind. Discounts come with years without claim.

That's about what we pay for 4 door 2.5 pickup.

We joke an awful lot about Trump's stupidity, his lying, his lack of knowledge about pretty much every important topic...but Trump really is a danger to America.  Nevermind the divisiveness, destruction to the environment, corruption, etc., Trump refuses to do anything about the Russians.  And this is what they're doing as a result....

 

[Russian hackers are conducting a broad assault on the U.S. electric grid, water processing plants, air transportation facilities and other targets in rolling attacks on some of the country’s most sensitive infrastructure, U.S. government officials said Thursday.]

Come on Trump, freakin do something!

Hopefully they keep what they're doing under wraps. No need to broadcast it.

You might pursue some facts re: poverty/welfare.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cycle_of_poverty

But so many would rather say "those people are just lazy." Such an ignorant view. 

Please don't take the meaning of my words and turn them around. People vote with their pocketbooks. Period.

To say there are not a lot of folks who make welfare their life's work is naïve. Many consider manual labor jobs beneath them. Who are you to say my views are ignorant? I thought name calling was against the rules.

To follow up on my previous post - If Americans are truly dead-set on being scammed and fleeced, they might as well go south of their own border. No jet-lag, airfare is cheaper, plenty of spicy food and the beer/tequila is the same.

 

Otherwise, for near enough the same airfare price, going to Vietnam is a much better deal.

You're just jealous us Americans are so loved.

Whose reason would that be?  And in what way is a person who is about to be executed going to feel happy?

I wonder if his victims were real happy campers. I'll bet they didn't have a say in the matter.

Do the crime you have to pay. Problem is there's to long of a waiting period between sentencing and penalty being carried out.

And what does it say about districts that have long been deep red, where voters are no longer feeling they can succeed on their own?

Guess it means they're looking for some freebees.

Folks will continue to vote with their pocketbooks. Who can help them the most? If you're on welfare, enjoy special benefits and want to continue then a dem is likely for you. If you still believe in the American way, believe you can succeed on your own without entitlements...then voting dem maybe wrong for you.

That was the place my parents with 4 kids landed when they immigrated to the US. Lived in a 2 room shack so close to railroad the walls shook when train went by.

I have had them in the US. Work good in dry heat. Add a block of ice to reservoir helps lower temp. Typically inserted in windows. 

They've been caught. A "dark skinned" foreigner and his wifey. I believe news said he is Arabic.

I've been meaning to ask. What's the significance of the captioned, lower case "trump"?

Careful, you might get sent to your room with no TV.
