That is not the question, and it does not happen between people from two cultures who can barely communicate in their own local languages.

We have to see how this pans out eventually. It looks like a perfect solution for my friend, who was looking for ways to stay in Thailand for 6 months without leaving Thailand. Now he gets an agent-assisted retirement visa every year.

Here is a hilarious thing. A Chinese student in the USA spent close to 120K USD using his various cards and then went back to China. He then posted on social media, thanking Chase, Bank of America, American Express, and a few other banks for financing his stay in the US, and then cursed America for its imperialist agenda.

I agree with this wholeheartedly. When you pay cash, you are very alert not to spend too much. There is no impulse buying, and one would buy the absolute necessity and anything that person is going to use immediately. With credit cards, a person needs to be very disciplined.

You are right. I don't have much cash money, but banks just love to give me credit, and with 100+ credit cards, I've got close to a million dollars in available credit. Why do I need money? I live on other people's money while I keep my 3 million dollars in my 401K, IRA, and Roth.You're right, I don't walk around with cash.

or a criminal who loves cash.

The expression "cash is king" only applies to investments because when the market is down, if you don't have cash, you can't take advantage of that. In all other cases, cash is the poor peasants' or criminals' mode of transaction. The credit card is the king because: 1. Fraud protection, 2. Cash back 3. Using other people's money.

I have smoked weed even when it was illegal. I could buy from various sources. It was a chocolate man in Bangkok, Nana security guards, and some motorcycle drivers. Even during COVID, I was able to procure it, though at a hefty cost. The quality was poor, and the cost was high. I was never caught for smoking weed but I was once caught for smoking ice. I had to pay 10,000 baht and spend all night in a room adjacent to the police station, where they wanted me to tell them about the person from whom I bought it. I bought it from a chocolate man, but I kept insisting that it was a Nana lady who came to my room and we smoked together. After four hours of interrogation, I had to pay 10,000 baht.

Do you have any link to prove it. I don't have a link to prove otherwise, but I have this Pattaya News legal corner article that validates my claim that motorized scooters are forbidden on public roads if power output is more than 500W.

Where did these debates take place? Thai taxes are determined by debates?

This sounds like a ridiculous use of grand proportions. They are going to track every ATM and credit card purchase and then match that with who is a resident (staying more than 180 days) and who is not. I doubt if Thailand will have that capability in the next fifty years when they cannot manage simple websites efficiently for a sustained period.

Are there no license plates on these scooters? If there are, then it is already registered. If it's less than 500W then there is no requirement for registration or a driving license. Of course, if there is an accident, you have to take responsibility.

For the price of reparations for a dead body, a couple of family members can travel to Thailand and have his body cremated.

People who are desperate to live in Thailand and don't want to go back home.
