Best current domestic air fares Chiang Mai to Suvarnabhumi
Thai Airway, Bankok Airways, Thai Vietjet and Thai Air Asia are your non-stop choices between Chiang Mai and Suvarnabhumi. Momondo is my preferred comparison site for this as it includes the Low Cost Carriers which some don't, just take care that your preference for hold bags etc carries over to the booking or that your comparing like with like.

Help needed with buying an annuity with my personal pension funds
I haven't used it myself, but I believe HL have a good online calculator where you can play about with variables like whether you want the income increasing in line with inflation or fixed, whether you want a spouse income on your death or not, and other such options. Worth playing around with probably to see if the results are in line with your expectations.

I know it's just another "expert" opinion, but this video claims US Social Security, UK State Pension, AUS and other country's equivalent benefit are all classified as Social Security and therefore not taxed in Thailand. About the 21 minute mark where she refers to the non-discrimination clause meaning foreigners must be treated the same as Thais.

My Thai Tax Office Tax Filing Experience...
Pity the fool is the expression that springs to mind upon reading this. You've been persuaded by crazy threads like here on Aseannow that there was a requirement to file tax info and further persuaded that failing to do so will affect your status with immigration. Please don't respond to any threads offering to sell you a bridge.

Money transfer for buying condo
As mentioned above, Swift is often better for larger USD transactions, such as your case, as it's the most commonly traded currency and spreads are tight, but the OP appears to use GBP which tends to have a much bigger spread and means Wise may well be the better choice.
