    It's called mitigating risk.  You do it in every day life without even thinking of it.  It's no different with trading.  You look for indicators, signals, high probability situations, and then you decide...

    I don't see how this is any different than deciding what car to buy,  what home to buy, or anything else related to finance, or even life.  It's pretty macroscopic.  Sometimes you win and and some times you lose even on high probability situations.  

    But if you think this and putting it all on black is the same thing, well, there's not much we can do to convince you otherwise.   To be honest, I used to gamble on sports.  Trading and investing requires far more discipline

    Today I shall mitigate my risk by putting it all on red, because that is what worked yesterday.

    The guy in the bar has set himself up for further confrontation,he should have been stretched out

    I think he's the bar manager of that place.  If that vlogger shows his face on that street again there are a lot of people who will want a piece of him.  Thai and farang.

    Vietnam about to open up without restrictions and Thailand keeps shooting their own feet

    They are removing some restrictions on flights but they are still not issuing tourist visas.  They have not even begun to talk about what if any restrictions they will impose when they do start issuing tourist visas.  Everyone seems to be following Thailand's lead to require travel insurance so I suspect they will do the same.

    That is true.

     

    After I had used Google Voice for several years, they started periodically asking me to re-verify my landline/cell.  Fortunately I could use an Ooma device to re-verify.  I haven't had to re-verify GV for over a year so maybe they've abandoned that policy.  Once you've verified a US based number hopefully they won't ask again.  Perhaps you can use the number for a US based relative/friend to get GV up and running.

    No they have not changed the requirement.  You still require a US SMS capable number to sign up and to verify (one time) on the app. 

     

    US VoIP numbers (that anyone can get) that are SMS capable may also work but YMMV.

    He never said that, liars about him did. Stick was the most decent person I ever met in Thailand, most foreigners are people who need to be avoided, but not him.

    All anyone needs to do is go to the website and search and see for themselves.  I believe those old posts are still there.

    I believe you have to go back to before 2010 to see the transformation.  I think he left around 2011 but I stopped reading before that so I don't know.  Looks like he kept posting from NZ or wherever even though he didn't live in Thailand anymore.

    A long time ago I was with a friend in the little fish and chips shop in Soi 23. We talked about the latest article from Trink and I explained to my friend what Trink wrote about computer viruses was total rubbish "the guy has no idea what he is writing about" and all that.

    After we left the shop my friend told me: By the way, do you know who was sitting behind you? Bernhard Trink...

    If I ran into Stick I would gladly tell him to his face what an idiot he was is trying to claim all Pattaya bargirls have HIV.
