Not sustainable to live like that in the long term, someone had to go....

I was just about to post that. I would guess most couples end up that way after the honeymoon period after the excitement of building a house and pick ups all around

RIP

If he was strolling naked around boyztown things me have ended differently

And be stuck on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere thailand about to get an overstay on my visa...?

Yes. You admitted you near had 5 ACCIDENTS!!! overstay is 500 baht per day.  You place a cheap price on your own head thats for sure

You could have pulled up any number of taxis refuelling at the servos he was drinking at.

I have to question your sanity. Why didn't you jump out after first alcohol stop? was it to inconvenient for you, surely your life is worth more?

What!? I think you missed some of this. We are paying EIGHTY SIX THOUSAND baht per MONTH for her care, plus meeting our own financial requirements for immigration. 86k per month is way way over the 65k requirement for her, but immigration does not recognize this because it is coming from us and not a foreign source. 

Send the money back to your home country and resend it back to her Bank account every month. They don't care who sends it as long as its in her account every month.

You can then bank transfer to her care center or pull the money out via debit card

I wear very large, loose shorts as it is!

Penis reduction surgery perhaps your only option

Try switching from lycra to oversized cargo shorts

No need to pull them up to your rib cage unless your 70+

I don’t follow your logic that common areas are being abused. Is it abuse like graffiti or purposely breaking things or is it wear and tear caused by what you deem excessive usage? Surely you must understand that whether it’s the owner or the tenant of an apartment, the usage is just interchangeable. You are not creating more usage rights so you are not abusing a right, you are just exercising it. The rights are the same. You may think some owners or tenants may have excessive use of the common areas but how do you define “excessive” usage and do you expect a judge in a court of law would accept a complaint based on your definition of excessive usage, or even the concept of excessive usage of common areas in a condominium. So long as a person, whether owner or tenant, is using a common area or facility for the purpose it was meant for its not abuse. 

 

I respect your right to express outrage at a situation you don’t like but it would not be smart to stop “forking out” your common area fees because you think the common areas are “being abused” as you will loose that argument 100% and could end up losing your condo if you don’t pay for a long enough time. 

 

 

"Im not forking out common area fees so Common areas can be abused."

Didn't mean literally not paying especially now we have 100% strict enforcement.

did you not read my previous post? wear and tear plus noise and security concerns

People in condos are not just interchangeable their is a massive difference between short and long term. Indians and chinese and koreans had no problem sleeping 4-6 in a studio . 

You miss my previous post #86?

"Condos are for long term tenants most in ours working 9 to 5 and during this time its fairly quiet especially pool and gym. 

Before we had strict enforcement the building was like a <deleted> amusement park !! kids screaming running up and down the hall hallways , the pool full of kids peeing and screaming, the Gym which now has strict dress code full of Asians and indians (indians 6 in a studio ) in bare feet taking up all the machines

At night hookers and lady boys roaming the hallways coming and going, parties until the wee hours with thumping music . I could go on (lower sukhumvit)

And you think thats OK, what the hell is wrong with you !! "

What a bunch of whining little ninnies. Are these people really hurting you or bothering you somehow? Stupid law that says you can't rent out something you own as you please. 

Sounds like you having good whine yourself.

Don't know to what extent the tenants broke the law, but if a country encourages and takes into account the sneaks and snitchs from any Tom-Dick-Harry or Somchai, it is not a good thing and leads to abuses that as always,  the innocent law abiding people will be the first to suffer and be harassed. 

Your right its not a good thing. Its a GREAT thing. I have and will continue to report suspected abusers. Im not forking out common area fees so Common areas can be abused.

Im waiting for the ...My wife is a high ranking IO and she said (insert)... post to come along any minute now
