Bangkok Thai Red Cross has it, 2,300 baht, 3 times required.

Plus while we're on the subject, is it still worthwhile taking over 45? it's recommended for under 45 but there must still be a benefit?

Good info.   I would say why not?

The only legit arguments against older people taking is that it hasn't been tested on older subjects.  But if a vaccine has no negative impacts on a 30 years old, it won't have negative impacts on a 50 or 60 years old.

Where can one get an HPV vaccine?

How many shots and what is the cost?

Can a perfectly healthy 40 years old male get it?

It doesn't hurt get protected.  

Speaking of health insurance, I keep hearing that 70 and over cannot get health insurance at all.

I am a few decades away but what do you do in that case?  If you are 70 and over.

No company would actually sell you one? What do you do?  Have 3 million baht in the bank?

Are there catastrophic health insurance with super high deductible for a 70 years old?

Be honest with the consular officer and within the application. 

Tourist visa's are not meant for long term (less than 6 months) and your wife will need to show that she will leave the US within 6 months.  Having a good and stable job and owning properties in Thailand would be good evidence but then the husband is going to be the US.

If she wants to stay longer, may be you should just go ahead and apply for the immigration visa  for a spouse? It will probably take a year to get all the paper work though.
