800000 bahts in a Thai bank account, Sure I will be happy to use it every month and put my oversea income into a portfolio or use it for online trading! I do not see the advantage of let it sit stagnant.. Perhaps interests in Thai bank are more as what I am thinking off … or some do not need to worry to see the capital decline..

Note:

The bank certification of deposit (of 800,000 baht) must show that the money came into the bank from another country.

-Can i transfer from my bank account to my oversea visa ( via internet ) , said the need sum for retirement ?

Go to the bank in Bangkok and withdraw from my visa , said the need sum ?

ASK a confirmation letter from the bank this money was from oversea ...?

Amount is not a problem as I already done this exercise !

-Can I apply for retirement when I pass 49 and one day ?

been in thailand for the last 8 years on a 3*3 months visa and few 1 year

-Can I mix income and deposit ?

I have a income, a lease on a commercial property, can I use a part of it as a prove of monthly income? embassy will do it ? presum a letter from my accountant will be helpfull ?

I have statements showing deposit every monthsfor the last 9 years ?

Note:

A Letter from your embassy saying you wish to retire in Thailand For an applicant …

Is it a easy formality?

Thank you

must be then , just find it when i went to lotus first time last week . good selection there ( computer shop ) save time for me as to go to pantip, think the price bit cheaper to and no one trying to sell you sex dvd / cd !

a new ( i think ) setup of few shops selling everything need for computer , include good selection of cd are in the same building ( 4 floor ) of the new lotus / tesco ( open 2 month ago ) in pinklaow , just near rama 8 bridge .

info for people living in this area .

Did not choose segregated or non-segregated account,just went with purchase of certificates .

here is the step i took :

http://www.jaggards.com.au/news/medusa/article_6.asp

see at How to order Perth Mint Certificates

they charge 2% AND they did tell me no cost of selling with them ( have to see ) , minimum charge for certificates and tax .

they do platinum , but no palladium ..to buy bar is ok , if you want to have insurance and storage , coin have a premium ( mainly silver )

10000 dollars ( au ) of silver is around 30 kilo , need a big safe for that !

i went with the certificats , to be able to trace them and add them into my will. they are in my oversea safe .

i got some thai gold for emergency , but anything can happen to here , bank vault get rob ... shop refuse to buy back ... get hit between safe to shop ... misses get it before !...

i do not think anything can be black and white ...

'bolloxed' not in my hard copy dictionary or in word ! must be a slang ..

will you explain ..

The grass greener on the other side ?

It look like both of you are successful where you are .

To break away from it could be negative .

Perhaps if you want to feel like living in Thailand you could start to buy a property there, and visit some time.

Regarding the children, international schools who give a good education standard are very expensive, more opportunity I think for European children.

But as you said, someone with family could give you a better on hand experience.

When you are in end of kowsan road ( burger king ) turn right ( tanao road ) cross the big avenue ( ratcha damnoen ) and follow this avenue to the second soi on your left , this street have some gay places , sakey one of them .

It happen to a friend ( well similar problem ) , we took the unit back to pantip and the shop did reset something in setup .

flick flick flick and everything went back to normal ...

A friend of mine who work in a TAT agency , told me every time a tuktuk bring a customer, the driver get a commission ( purchases or not from the farang) ..

Same go in the jewels or tourist shops ..

He said have the same farangs doing the round with the same tuktuk every month and get some of the commission cut !

Not sure if it is the norm for all the TAT agencies ?

Anyway the two TAT business ( big sign in the window ) around my place are the worth services orientated travel agency I saw .
