  1. Hemoglobin and Hermetic for sure.  

     

    iron is very tricky.   hopefully a little folate (1/4 a folate tablet every few days, less is more) and vit. c helps instead, but the big question is:  What if it's NOT iron or folate?  

     

    could be heat, maybe a food allergy, not getting enough fruits or vegetables,  heart issues, stress, anxiety, traumatic experience,  asthma, etc......

     

    of course, check........ 

     

    i took some B12 and seemed OK, then I took a different B12 and the side effect was like you were yelling in your head.  luckily, after a few days, I threw all the pills away and only I knew what was happening........google was my friend, it seemed pretty common.. my point:  be careful on what you put in your body.  I stopped taking B12 altogether and I feel better.  got tested, and my levels were slightly below the mid-point on some iron tests.  "normal".  

     

    good luck, this one is tricky I think.

    On a serious note, each evening I do get the sweats and feel mildly feverish,

    It's 2021 and healthy humans are injecting themselves with something that makes them sick.......all because they won't get more sick.

     

    Why can't we evolve quicker??????  Eat this pizza and you won't get sick for 20-years.   OK, sorted.

     

    Now I'm convinced we are in a simulation 

  3. About salaries, I might be mistaken, of course.

     

    i asked in Thai if they had a contract.  I remember some saying yes.  I remember 7000.   Of course, the answer might be the amount they made last month (this was during Covid).   Maybe I asked the owner's sister, who knows..........

     

    if they are calling a masseuse on the phone to go to the shop, she's not getting a salary.   It makes more sense if none of them get a salary.   But it would be crazy if, during covid, they are making like 3000 a month.   

     

    got a good deal now.  One shop, one owner lady.   Once a week, two hour easy massage for 400.    I gave her the option:

     

    one hour for 200, I tip 100.  you get 300.

    two hours for 400.  

     

    1600 a month is OK for me, and she gets 100%.   

     

    yea......i'm gaming the system a little.......but her shop is not busy at all so I don't feel too bad about it.

    my understanding is if they sit there all day and there are no customers, the don't make a satang

    I think i've asked some before and I seem to remember the number 7000.   Of course, I'm old and I can't remember my name, but I'm pretty sure they get something.  I think if they are pretty busy they make around 30,000.   Now?  I'm guessing they are making between 10-15,000.

  5. Do yourself a favor, avoid indoor places with lots of people.  covid is still a thing, and outdoors seems to be much safer.   maybe only once a week to makro, buy a lot of stuff.   

     

    covid can happen anywhere, no question about that.

     

    to know about your surroundings, ask a Thai person.  it's the best way to learn.  

     

    everyone keeps telling me to avoid the Sinovac vax.   Maybe I should start listening to them.........but If I'm offered the Sino, I'll take it.  lol

    I have money but I pretend to be poor

    this is key.  a clever person can tell if someone has money by their complexion, demeanor, etc..... but Thais haven't spent enough time with the falang.  

     

    I spent maybe 40,000 on a piece of jewelry, so not a crazy amount.  if anyone asks me, i tell them it's about 1000 baht.  then they say, "oh, expensive."  lol.   ok.

     

    acting rich will only lead to problems anywhere in the world.

     

    but the falang gets the very young girl by acting rich, this is his only way.

     

    and then is shocked when she never really loves him.  lol

    Sin Sod is for the parents, so it can't be part of a divorce agreement.

     

    Once again, the falang comes to LOS thinking they are the smartest humans on the planet.......wanting to exploit the young ones.

     

    they leave broke, bitter, and sentenced to a lifetime on TVF.

     

    welcome.  lol

    We sent them a pic from Bournemouth beach

    I'm not a world traveler, but I don't think this beach is in the LOS.

     

    Someone paid for a flight ticket, accommodation, travel, food, whatever....

     

    maybe she paid 50% of everything......but if not, well, you are paying.

  9. I don't like the term, "free money," since everyone has sacrificed because of COVID.  

     

    But, it sort-of feels "free," so I'd sign-up as well.  

     

    In America, they are talking about this "free money" up to 2000 USD per MONTH!!!  

     

    I know, I know...... TVF posters have told us America is broke, ruined, doomed, everything............but I think it's because their country gave them 20 baht for a  bowl of noodles.

    that I pass with my dogs

     

    you mean trespass?    If so, this is irony.   You are mad someone's trespassing as you trespass.  lol.  dogs?  dogs in Thailand are suspect, she has a right to be afraid.  

     

    actually, it's your life.......you will lose no matter what, and you know that.   you already know they don't like you, and that's too bad.  they don't like your dogs, which is also too bad.  you don't feel welcome, which isn't a good feeling.   

     

    the question is......do you really want to make it worse?  to the point of no return?   to the point of you moving as you leave your house behind.

     

    this is not a war to fight........to me.   to you, ah..... up to you

  11. People say they will never help............God reads every post!!!

     

    If I saw some infants crawling to my mansion, of course I would let them stay even if they could not pay!!!!  

     

    if TVF members ran the world, everyone would be gone.    

     

    these stories are old hat....we know the worst falangs come here, so these stories will never end.   and then never end.............   these represent falangs of Thailand.   The 40 million sexpats............   i don't why anyone is surprised.

    But they repeatedly refused to pay the rent until nearly one million in arrears had built up. They cited excuses like Covid, their age and human rights. 

     

    They were told to move but refused. They were getting drunk and making trouble for other residents at the apartment. 

     

    these are not good people.   walking stick, or not.    

     

    would like to hear their life story..........this wasn't the first time they played this game.  

     

    perhaps a village of 1,000 people saved to buy this...hoping the rent payments will help them all!!!!  one guy is hired to be in charge..

     

    and then these people enter........and many lives are affected.    

     

    who knows.   maybe a dragon was involved.
