For 1/4 of the world population daily affordable food and a stable roof over their heads would mean happyness.

Uoii! So where does your information come from? Certainly not by studiying basic physics. Try it, it's the pathway to your enlightenment in todays world.

If only you could get yourself to study the nonsense called "physics" eliminating all ather facebook nonsense that is your source of information you would automatically stop posting your habitual nonsense here. Try it! To understand the world it doesn't take facebook, it takes physics,

Last night while sitting at the bar a guy joned me. He talked weird stuff. I diagnosed scizophrenia, paranoia, narcism, sexism and other mental disorders that psychiatrists would have a field day. He seemed to have some knowledge as far as "microeconomics" are concerned, but clueless when it came to "macroeconomics". Got tired of it, payed up and left the bar. On the way out the bartender caught up with me and said: "You have just been talking to the president". The president of the local hog-breeders assoziation, I asked? "No, the president of the Unitet States" he replied. Thankfully at this point the alarm clock rang. Much to my relief, I realised that it was only a dream, as in real life, something like that could never happen.

Fortunately I invested 90% in long-term situations. That's where I made my money. Basically, I made my money by sitting on my rear and let time work for me. At the same time I must confess that trading the markets can be exiting. Back to the OP's wife: Many online platforms offer "small-accounts" (1000$ or less) or even "trial-accounts" where no money is involved. I suggest OP's wife go this way before larger amounts of money are committed.

Correct. Depending. on year, it fluctuates between 70 to 80%. Plenty of newcomers every year, replacing the players that have run out of money. The Casino-Effect: New money always floating in: "If I don't win today, I will win tomorrow." Whereas the "win-quote" at the roulette table are higher than short-term trading at the markets. 50/50 versus 70/30 . Viva Las Vegas or a noodle stand in Thailand? The noodle stand in Thailand to be preferred.

Will take place in Switzerland. According to my thread, no assurance of "quality work", as such procedures are performd by "assistant doctors/future surgeons" at "University Hospitals". Well, one has to learn the trade somewhere, "University Hospitals" a good place to learn the trade. Rant over.

Very helpful, as usual. REZUM is relatively new. Trying to avoid a Guinnie-Pig situation, is "Laser" older or newer than REZUM?

First: She needs a low-cost internet brokerFirst/platform with minimal bid/ask spreads. Look at www.oanda.com. Second: Said trading platform freely informs, that 76% of their short term traders lose money. Third: Technical indicators of all sorts are less reliable on a short term basis than on a longer term basis. Fourth: A whole industry has emerged to "butcher the traders". Producing false "breakouts", "running the stops" etc etc etc I used 10% of my capital as "trading money", since 1973. On average, it yielded me a measely 2% per year. To be considered as "good", as I have avoided the destiny of 76% of fellow traders. Based on invested capital, I would have made more money by selling noodles in Thailand. A final word: If "trading the markets" would be easy, we would have no plumbers, bakers, accountants and brain surgeons left, everybody would be getting rich by "playing the markets".

After I had my REZUM done, I spent 3 months in agony. Massive infection. While urinating, I had to press a pillow against my mouth to muffle my animalistic pain sounds. Needless to say, that I am not keen of doing it again. Looking at TURP, it seems to be even more invasive/radical than Rezum. "Laser" was mentioned. Less invasive as the 2 above? At what time intervals would "Laser" have to be re-done?

Apperantly not! Therefore I must conclude that there are no more BJ Bars left in Pattaya as there is no "input" forthcoming concerning this issue. As I gather , Japonise "comfort bars" in Tokio have discovered this business concept, Thai ladies much in demand, earning much Dollars for very limited basic performance.

Never mind my "Desperate Appeal". Your "Desperate Appeal" seems to be to turn Pattaya into a "Family Resort". Any Person claiming to live in Pattaya aiming to make "Pattaya a better place" with his Family is a hypocrite. Stay out of this discussion or join Jehowas Witnesses and remove yourself from such a wicked place like Pattaya. By all means, before you qualify sinners below saints, Pattaya is not the place for you and your phylosophy. The "sinners" of Pattaya will always outnumber the "saints". You will be more comfortable living in Eastern Timbukto, where women are veiled from top to bottom. Therefore, my asking for BJ Bars is as reasonable as your yearning for turning Pattaya into a Family Resort.

In short: Are there any old fashioned uncomplicated BJ Bars left in Pattaya? If yes, where?

Of course, Fox News consumers will qualify such things as "Fake News". Other news sources are part of a "news conspiracy", preventing the "Hillbillies" of America in combination with other mentally less gifted to gain power. Now they have gained power. Them not knowing yet that they will get poorer and poorer in the process.

This guy is also a Dual-Citizen, having lived in the US for 25 years. Was a member of the finest golf clubs in Arizona, as well as a welcome visitor and supporter of people living in tents or in their cars. So I know "the bright side" as well as the "dark side" of the American dream.

This thread sails under "the deal of all deals", it may have escaped you. It has to do with the Ukraine and not with the mental framework of a real estate developper that managed to convince a good part of the US electorate that by imposing "tariffs", promessing increased "wealth" for everybody. The only profiteers will be his "buddy-billionaires". If a nation needs "tariff protection", it means that we can not compete in a globalised world. To secure Ukrainian resources would soften the economical incompetifeness of the US. Outside of "silicon-valley" nothing much is happening.

Surely, you have been following "Fox News" for the last 200 years. As you are not willing to comment "on topic" I will disregard your future comments within this thread.

The reason Donald "inherited" the best economy since the 80ties has been documented manyfold. It was not owed to his "Genius". I would kindly ask you to comment within this thread. Otherwise I would suggest you open a new thread: "Donald and the future blessings of the world", for example.

The usual, when even the Trumpists can't really follow Donalds way into the "golden years". Care to comment on my thread or rather not? "Trump bashing" as a standart reply is not sufficient.

REZUM again? Had it done in August 2022. Now prostate problems arise again only after 2 1/2 years. Do it again after only 2 1/2 years? According to my statistical life expectancy I would have to do it 4 more times. Ridiculus! What to do?

An exagerration for sure, but as long as there are "nations", there will be "nationalism". Care to comment on the topic?

Easier to trade with friends. As with enemies all trade stops.

This has got to be the greatest deal ever. Donald will get 50% of future Ukrainian natural resources, while Europe should guarantee the survival of the rest of the Ukraine. Something Europe can not (militarily) provide. The fly in the ointment: Unless the US gives "guarantees", no mining giant will invest a single Dollar in exploring Ukrainian resources. Start-up mining costs massive amounts of money. The very fact, that Donald will rely on Vladimir's "goodwill" (practically making him the grantor of the independence of the rest of the Ukraine), shows a degree of political naivete that is unrivalled in recent history. Finally leading to the conclusion that Donald doesn't give a hoot about a US/European friendship that lasted for 80 years. Benefitting both. By persuing this strategy, the US will end up with no friends in the end. But having to deal with a formidable new enemy: China. With no friends left.

Foreighners are excluded from Thai Social Security if not working for a large company. Thai government employees get a pension. Around 20K per month. All other Thais get an "old age pension" amounting to THB 600 per month on average. This is not a "typo". It's sixhundred BHT per month. Furthermore, Falangs can not join the 35 BHT health scheme.

Long before, every village had a "village fool". Talking illogical trash: Limited to the village. These days, internet provides a platform for every "village fool". Possibly reaching millions. Looking at "Influencers", half of them belong in a mental institution, including their followers. Modern times.
