I don't "think" anything about what you like, I just go by what you post and judging by your attacks on and contempt for the main stream (read; sane/moderate) press I'd say you don't like a free press if it attacks someone you support.

You attack news organizations like CNN all the time but strangely enough there's never a peep about the sycophants at Fox News.

The free press should simply report the news without any spin, how about that. From the start the liberal news agencies have been after Trump like rabid dogs nipping at his heels. 

Just report the news and let the public decide for ourselves.

In my Navy days the rate was $30. for $20. due on pay day, 50% interest.

From guys I talk to 15,000bht to an agent will take care of things. No worries Mate.

The handle bars really aren't that bad, you'll get used to them in minutes. 

I've used them and they're retarded, oh well, either import or conform.

Has anyone found a weed wacker with throttle on the main bar instead of using those ridiculous handle bars, soooo unhandy.  

Does anyone believe "Better Call Saul" will continue after next season 5? I speculate a new show will happen showing Saul after Breaking Bad. If you watched Better Call Saul you saw the opening scene of the first season with Saul working in a Coffee/donut shop in a mall. I believe that had a reason.....stay tuned.

Canada is known for growing the best pot . So tourism may go up too. Fly to Canada get stoned go skiing,or white water rafting or fishing you name it. Or just rent a cabin in the woods and chill out.

Or Colorado...…… same, same

Yep. Thread should be shut down. He’s just been playing games on here aka trolling

I like games, both sides of the fence told their story, some with honesty and humor. How anyone else lives shouldn't influence your lifestyle. This is simply a sharing of ideas.

Makro has pretty much everything, no need for Tops. Freshly BBQ'd fish is my favorite market food 180bht ia a nice meal for 2 adults and child. They sell those fresh spring rolls for 50bht/pkg, a nice snack.

Tops is over the top for me, I don't need beef. We eat mainly seafood, occasionally chicken.

This is a pretty basic looking house. Not much skill needed. You get what you pay for I guess when it comes to hiring builders.

I find it hard to believe workers were paid 200bht/day unless they were not Thai or maybe 15 yr old kids.

I've seen dishwashers at home pro.  My washer has it's own heater with two different temp settings.  I'd imagine a dishwasher could do the same.  Not much good if it dosen't sanitize. 

My dish washer also cooks, washes clothes, and a few other duties.????

Guess Philippines is looking good for some. Exchange rate 50peso/USD, beers are in the 50 peso range at many bars, cheap rent, good looking girls. Easier access to western food.

He could be bisexual you know.

So if a guy pokes a real lady now and again, he's not also gay. Huh.....OK

Did you hear that Ladyboy enthusiasts, you're now Bi-Sexual, well some may be...….the rest of you are just plain gay still.

If you would have a kid in that school would you prefer that she and the other teachers have enough money for a reasonable living? Or would you prefer is they have second job and are tired in their first job?

I'll bet the Thai parents of her students would have no pity on her, I'm sure they can only wish for a 15,000bht/mo job. 

In a perfect world of coarse, pay her 100,000bht,mo. Close to what a native English speaker makes in a good International School. 

I stayed in Issan for years and guys went to Bangkok for 10,000bht/mo jobs to support their families, because in their home town a 10,000bht job was out of reach. But, this little princess thinks it's just so unfair.....boo-hoo. You think her family back home has a 15,000bht/mo job. No back home she has a lazy father and family sponging off her. And leave all that tradition crap at the door...…..

How about she spend her time getting a different job, a second job, she willingly took this job and now whines, boo-hoo. If you don't like the pay, don't take the job.

So 3 good friends get together, pool their money and rotate it between accounts for their turn with immigration.

Tell the GF, you would like to borrow 800K 3 mos/yr from her family.

I've been talking more about this to others lately and I'm surprised they all use agents. I seriously don't think this can change. What may change is the agent's price may increase as more wheels to grease.

Can anyone advise how many months would be acceptable to qualify the 65000k monthly income option ( 3 or has to be a full 12 months prior to retirement visa application).

Thanks

I've asked this same question twice now with no legit answer in sight, hopefully they will listen to you.

Not a straight thing - a deviant thing.

 

Have we met???????

For those of us who have kids in Thailand and go back to US yearly, it seems a straight Non-O multiple entry is the way to go, every 3 mos, do a border crossing. I'm not retired yet but will be so next year and all this is quite confusing.

One thing doesn't make sense...……….. If the 800,000 is required to be deposited into Thai bank, then why isn't the monthly deposit also required to be deposited into Thai Bank. I hear what is being said, but still don't understand the logic.
