How much does health insurance cost in Thailand now?
Makoshark replied to Social Media's topic in Health and Medicine
I'm 73 and I was just refused. After 75 you are un-insurable by anyone in Thailand. I'm returning back to the USA in September. Medicare is F R E E You can always pay out-of-pocket if you want to go bankrupt -
I was rejected yesterday and decided it would be in my best interest to leave BKK before I get really sick. It's OK. Been here 8+ years of nothing but great times. Returning to the USA where I'm on Medicare and AARP. Nothing like free insurance.

Luma Health bumped me a few times but I was under 70 at the time. At 73 i might be un-insurable. Mister Prakan-talking with them this week.

Where can i get Kratom in large quantities in Thailand
Makoshark replied to driveout's topic in General Topics
Nat'l Institute of Health KRATOM ...................................... Researchers have found that people report using kratom to alleviate pain, to address symptoms of mental health conditions like anxiety and depression, to help stop or reduce opioid or other substance use and to manage withdrawal symptoms and cravings related to opioids and other drugs.Mar 25, 2022 What are the benefits of kratom for pain? Mayo Clinic Kratom is believed to act on opioid receptors. At low doses, kratom acts as a stimulant, making users feel more energetic. At higher doses, it reduces pain and may bring on euphoria. At very high doses, it acts as a sedative, making users quiet and perhaps sleepy.Feb 20, 2019 -

One-Way Flight Tickets Into Thailand.
Makoshark replied to XB12X's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
I'm returning back to BKK from NYC. For my tourist Visa, a return ticket is required when applying. I will buy my onward ticket to show my exit out out BKK. My question is this---since I have to apply for my Visa not less than 30 prior to departure, does that onward ticket expire. I am certain the airlines in NYC will require me to show an exit out of BKK ! ! ! Please advise. Thanks -

I've been smoking for over 50 years, in BKK for 6+. My daughter and her friends bring me 50+ cigars every visit. It's very difficult to find "fresh" cigars in BKK. When I run out, I go over to the Mandarin Oriental. Pricey but they have a great room to smoke in while enjoying cocktails. I find it more difficult to find a place to smoke ! ! !

I used to use MSH Int'l. They were bought by LUMA. I just turned 73 and uninsurable by them anymore. They referred me to Pacific Cross. As for the amount, I always buy 10 million bht. No drama, no worries. I used Mister Prakan. They are terrific. I've had surgeries and there was never an issue nor a raise in my premiums. You can use my name. [email protected]

In Nov., I was diagnosed as "LEGALLY BLIND" ! ! ! I just had it done in the USA. I went from 20-70 to 20-25 with the surgery. Both eyes. It's all out-patient, 3 weeks apart for each eye. Amazing surgery, but I still don't drive. I prefer to be driven ! ! !
