What would you prefer, Brian? That the op discuss only their retirement visa or the virus, like every other poster here?

What the hell is gobbly guck anyways?

Nice. I applaud.

I just saw them. Hardly worth bothering with. There is plenty of delusion there.

It would seem he doesn't own a mirror.

Why bother with all that typing when all you wanted to do was tell him all this women are whores?

No, but it's a pretty decent way to cut your overheads when you can't afford rent or food due to covid.

Gone missing? You are living proof that some of them are right here on what was formely called thaivisa. (Thaivirus.com). It doesn't seem you are lacking for company either.

Yeah, it me that has issues understanding context.

4. I beleive you forgot to mention she says she will be bankrupt 5. She says she will be bankrupt. Oh, and dont leave.out the part where she is bankrupt. Toddling off now.

Thanks, I appreciate that you have taken the time out here to make assumptions about my lifestyle and misread the the original post

Not sure wearing lads is an appropriate discussion for this forum

Did you forget to mention crypto, or was the omission intentional? One would think with a life of such rich experience, you would be more prone to enjoying the benefits of your labours rather than, working yourself into a froth over an article it seems you havent even read. im sorry your vast assets weigh heavily upon you.

If satire is your goal, you are succeeding admirably. If it isn't, take a step back and give yourself a good look. What have you become?

Oh, the bitterness.

Actually, I just did. Again. It seems to me they explain that while they could afford it the logisitics of making it home in time are highly unlikely. The have decided to stay in the hopes the situation changes. I also noted that the woman had a job waiting for her, if she could find a solution. Does obtuse mean failing to read into an article something that isnt there? Have a lovely day folks, i have better things to do. My sliver spoon wont polish itself, and my trust fund is looking a little full.

I fail to see any bleating except from posters much like yourself.

They also seem unable to understand that they were very likely approached by media who had a story agenda they wanted to pursue.

Oh they will beleive you, they just wont admire you.

I didnt experience any real hardship, my baht spending power was unchanged. However, had I not deposited the money and converted it into thai currency it would have been worth considersbly more in baht terms. As it happened after a few great months at the beach, I got a job with a local company, got a bank account and deposited the funds that were under my mattress -- a few months later things went tits up.

I arrived in 96 with about 5 grand US. That soon became worth almost nothing whrn the baht crashed. Probably shouldnt have put it in the bank. I have been living, working and travelling in asia since with thailand as my base.

Arent we making some assumptions here! I have suppprted myself and earned my way since my late teens. I have been travelling since I was 25. No saftey net, just me. Your remarks date you as clearly as the other posters. People can and do earn money in ways it seems you cannot conceive. All this nonsense about trust funds and silver spoons just shows how frighteningly narrow your perception of life for the younger generations is. In do respect my elders, the ones who deserve respect. I have little patience for myopic internet bigots who refuse to accept that their way of looking at things isnt he only way. Who is clueless here, really?

Bully for you old chap.

Im sorry your life sucked and you are threatened by the notion that someone younger than you can arrange their life in a way that means they dont live to work.

At least you admit to being trapped in the past. Most on here think they have a clue. Things change. That time has passed, priorities are different.
