I'm not even talking about this. I'm talking only about the financial aspects. Maybe it's not even worth it even from the financial perspective. As for the "illegality", there is an obvious solution. Make a 1-month contract with every guest with a clause allowing early cancellation.

That's why paying for Thai social security makes sense! There are no exclusions or pre-existing conditions.

First of all. Don't need to tell me that Airbnb is technically illegal in Thailand! I kinda know that. I wonder if it's really that profitable to buy a condo in Thailand to Airbnb it, considering the current property prices. The ROI seems not to be very high. There are plenty of Airbnbs for 1000 baht or under, which makes it hard to make a real profit. Thailand is known for it's cheap accommodations, and the only way to make good money here is to aim at a higher-end segment. But again, what would be ROI for a higher-end condo? In my opinion, there are much better options around the world (or even within South East Asia) to invest in the Airbnb business. For example, Vietnam, where Airbnb short-term rentals are more expensive than in Thailand, while property prices may be lower.

It's a good place to buy to rent out on Airbnb.

The Base was completed in 2016, making it almost 8 years old now.

Why hasn't this topic been moved to the Banking section?? It has no place in the Visa section!

You sound like you are in a retirement age already haha

Even the younger generation speaks very basic English at best.

Although most Russians don't speak or even understand English, I don't think that's the main reason. There is plenty of information in the Russian language from independent media that operate on the Internet and Youtube. Russian-language opposition channels get millions of views.

I heard that UOB open accounts for tourists, but they require an initial deposit of 50,000 baht.

And then helps with immune response to it

Everyone knows alcohol is bad, tobacco is bad, processed meat is bad. Does any serious research contradict that?

You call serious science myths?

What about a long-known connection between red meat and colon cancer?

She should've invested in a private retirement fund or real estate instead of education for her children

Can't say anything bad about the locals either.

I find the majority of Indians in Pattaya nice and polite.

Anyway even with an online appointment, you have to wait a lot. It's not really efficient

Showing up at immigration for 15 minutes just to get a pre-approved stamp in the passport is still better than waiting there for hours

I just learned that an electronic visa extension system has been around for a year in Bangkok and now is being implemented in other tourist provinces. Has anyone had an experience using it? How convenient is it?

A great portion of Russia's GDP comes from oil and gas. Thailand doesn't have that. But if you compare salaries in Thailand and Russia, you will see that they are pretty much the same.

1000 baht ($30) is not cheap?
