If you want a real bodyguard, armed, gonna be at least 20-30K baht per 12 hours. I'd say pointless to have an armed one as they won't shoot anyone for you at those rates anyway. More likely that they would cheat you, if people are after you and it's worth money. So you might as well hire a random Muay Thai guy in that case and just have cash ready for issues.

Entry worrying with Volunteer visa history
ChaiyaTH replied to Shueng's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Yeah it is pretty easy indeed, my yearly extension is due early December, almost considered to just do 1 weekend trip to Vietnam or Kuala Lumpur + get 60 days non-o child extension on top = 105 days each time... At least from next year I will do that in between, then it is more like 15 months in total if doing a year extension at last. -
Israeli man arrested at Phuket Airport with 55 firearm bullets
ChaiyaTH replied to snoop1130's topic in Phuket News
55 is like barely 2 mags with 5.56 average. Normally if new they are on plastic clips as well so this sounds like he is just one of the less bright people around us. -
If you pretend you sold the wrong article by accident it is a civil case and not considered fraud, some criminals use nominees to setup endless seller accounts on platforms, cash the money out until the platform finally blocks them (if at all). Or some even do refund if the consumer is not giving up, returning it etc etc as they know few will, with the latter, they can go on forever.

Classical fake just like with USB sticks on Lazada and Shopee. Even you could get 20TB for that price, I would be scared, as you can't rely on the normal lifespan of the disk due to quality.

That is actually ironic if you think about it, they made it more attractive to do border runs than to get a tourist visa. Certainly not worth the 15 days more knowing it costs 2K in fees aside of longer duration abroad (hotel cost etc). -
Thinking of going for Apple for the first time..
ChaiyaTH replied to brewsterbudgen's topic in Apple Products
Any professional user would change after the average of 5 years anyway, then if it comes to some security bugs due to older versions, that is just not a statement at all. First of all because the main target is still Windows computers aside of a majority of Windows computers running on outdated software too. The usual unsupported updates for older Macs also usually barely affects functionalities or the ability to still use all software over a full decade. -
Hope she leaves you soon

Only one way to find out anyway so pointless to fear something unless you know more than you tell us. I would personally actually do a border entry in such cases, as at least it's less hassle then when being refused. Could just go back to Malay, Lao or Cambodia hehe. -
I don't believe a word of any of the things they say there, in terms of THC or CBD percentages. Not to mention I would not be surprised half of those 'newbie ganja farmers, usually Thai farmers doing the actual work, using pesticides and the like to get the best results or avoid bugs, while not flushing with water the last 4 weeks. If most weed was actually even close to 15% of THC, the crappier cheap ones would be much nicer and also more populair. I think the majority hardly makes it to 7% even.

Yeah I mean, I was a business line seller for Dell and Lenovo for years, and then I met my MacBook Air... Quit my job too. -
Why are many visas based on age?
ChaiyaTH replied to timoti's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Because the returns on rent suck, aside of the fact that the quality of build here would need a new house by the time most finish a mortgage, so that is just like renting as they will need a new loan. The only who should buy are those who earn so little, that paying the mortgage is the only 'significant' way of saving for the future. It is an old concept, it is not for the future and even in all the decades that worked, you would still been 2x richer if you invested it elsewhere. This is also why it's usually always old people who recommend it, it's all financial education they have: 1) Work until you can't even have sex without viagra 2) Don't live above your means, live very boring and sober to save money you never spend alive 3) Buy a house, renting sucks, as you can see in point 1 and 2 above, I figured life out as a genius. -
Selling a House Privately

You simply prepare the proper description, details and photos. Then you start posting it everywhere you can, and you repeat posting this as long as needed. -

So how do you like it so far? -
Why are many visas based on age?
ChaiyaTH replied to timoti's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Because just like many other types of laws, they are written decades ago, you could say to be the ''old world'' would make it very uncommon for people to work remotely or retire younger so far away etc. To add that visa's were never an issue until the big changes since Uncle P., thanks to corruption or just repeatedly paying the max 20K fine, not having helped to push changing immigration laws to modern times. But we are close, it is just that progress here is turtle speed, might still take 5 years more before we see proper change. But just like with cannabis, it can also be changed out of nowhere. Nobody would have thought you can good indoor anywhere without having to be scared either, if you told them 5 years ago. They will need younger people as old people become more scarce. -
I know how it grows naturally but this looks like anorexia combined with claustrophobia but I forgot that everyone in Thailand is now cannabis expert, guess that is why most of the weed sucks so much too lol.

Never bring your designer clothes to laundry shops, I did it with a few 3K baht polo's until one day the laundry shop decided to suddenly use a dryer machine, ruining all my polo's instantly. This while she never did that for a year using her 2 times a week. Expect them to do the most stupid things, as they likely will do that. No brains, no thoughts, just doing first. Thailand: the only country where you can safely bring 20-30K baht value clothes to a laundry shop, as it never will be stolen, juist ruined instead.

Oh cry me a river, scammers come from everywhere, certainly more Thais scamming Thais than the seldom farang like this. Prefer to get rid of whiners like you, as scammers suck so much in life, they leave themselves sooner or later.

Hahahahaha that is a very good one too. People always do better taking the 10 baht coins to Europe, looking like 2 euro, to then get beers at bars at night free.

You should not plant them so near each other, they have too little space as well it seems they get too little light. The distance between the nodes is too much. I see many people grow long skinny plants here, not sure why, as you might as well have a very big plant harvesting 500 grams VS 10 plants harvesting 40-50 grams each only.
