Hmm..  I always liked Homers Simpson's way of thinking. 

 

Can we know what your reasoning is Peasandmash? Do you live in CM?  

I have made ChiangMai my home. I enjoy living here. I don't like the smog here. So when the smog gets bad, I leave. This year I had made a commitment which prevented me from leaving. So I accepted my situation and someone gave me a respirator mask to wear.

 i don't need to replace the batteries.. lol.. mind your cents and your dollars will take care of themselves..

this is exactly why i own a large car. lots of steel (ok aluminum) around me for when some drunk comes to wipe me out. 

I keep the 800k in a bank and rent a new 2 bedroom, 3 bathroom townhouse. the interest I make on the 800k pays for nearly 90% of the annual rent.

how wasteful, "blame".  Identify the source and fix it or accept the consequences of doing little or nothing to change the situation. blaming is the product of wasteful thinking.

15K baht? Transportation costs are a bargain! 

You get paid a grand total of 375 baht per vile of heroin and you gotta split that with your buddy... I'm left to wonder if the other transportation costs (gas, etc) come out of the 15K baht as well? Mmmm

I've had over 800k in a fixed Thai Bank account continuously since 2013. In the past I've taken the interest payment, but now I think I will let it ride (haha) as I'm sure in the near future more money will be needed to continue to live in this beautiful country.

Anyway, when I do go to Immigration to renew my retirement visa I'll be curious to see if anyone makes any comment to me whatsoever about checking my balance in 90 days.

No life after death? Those who think so will be surprised, no Heaven, no Hell, just a new life.

The observation has been made that at the quantum level there is only energy and intelligence. This intelligence may be consciousness that permeates throughout the known universe.

heartbreaking.

Supporting LGBT is Making America Great Again.

Thank you President Donald Trump.

Unbelievable! and horrible!

May God have mercy on their souls.

" I could switch to the 800k method but i don't really want to but with Immigration moving the goal posts all the time it may be the only option. So that's 3 months of me transferring in 65k+ a waste of time and money "

It takes me about 10 seconds to initiate a bank transfer via internet banking... If I were to include the time it takes to login into the bank account and time I take to snap a pic of the confirmation code it could take nearly 30 seconds... as far as wasted money goes,,,, I earn more in my Thai fixed account than in my money market account, plus Thailand doesn't tax the interest.

??? ????Can we trust what FAA says about the Boeing 737 Max 8 being safe??? The head administrator, Daniel Elwell,(appointed by clueless Trump), once worked as a senior vice president at Airlines for America (A4A), the largest lobbyist group serving the airline industry? What side of the fence would  he be on? Safety first or supporting Boeing? 

 

Yes, good thinking. You're right.. oops.. I didn't mean you're right (clearly). Anyways, you can go back to watching CNN.  They're now reporting a 737 MEGA has fallen on Jussie Smollett.

<snip> "THAI's don't really want us there, only our money. <end snip>

Possibly, other than someone's Mother, who does want a person who is a burden and has no money??

he seems like he's in shock. Alone and dying of cancer is very sad. May God have mercy on his soul.

heartbreaking... truly heartbreaking.. if i make it to 72 and someone does this to any of my family members, I will surely end their time on this planet. 

some people just want to be offended... the kids are not fully aware of the meaning of holocaust and the media wants to makes news (aka get views) from what is a display of ignorance. the real shame is that the kids parents haven't beat the living sh@t out of their kids for being so <deleted> stupid.

If you turn em upside down, they are all sisters

My heart is breaking... opps sorry that was gas. ????

I just sent 10K USD from my US bank to my BKK account. No problem.

Jesus said, "I have not come to condemn the world, I came here to save it". From this scripture it is clear Jesus knew of the evil man was capable of doing.

Jesus said, "I am the resurrection and the life. Anyone who believes in me will live, even after dying." This is the promise that believers and non-believers should focus on.

Today, the greatest minds of science have demonstrated that at the quantum level everything is made up of energy and intelligence.  What is the origin of this intelligence? Some claim it is consciousness, a soul that pervades the Universe. 

God Bless
