It wouldnt matter if you zeroed their debt, within a short time theyd be back in debt, due to their own stupidity, live within your means whether it be a mansion or a jungle shack or neither.

did my own gate work myself, motor thai watsadu as mentioned, foresee remote control, gate made by Thai friend 2 gates 4.5metres each 100k total (50k each) delivered, motor 9k alsao 2 ir sensors tro stop an idiot closing the door on their car, work free....done by me also got a stainless motor cover to go over the plastic motor cover as plastic and sun always ends badly in time, cost 1000 made locally

Ultimately the responsibilty lies with the borrower, but responsibilty is a dirty word in many countries now especially Thailand. I treat all their rules as a joke knowing full well the scale of the corruption here and do my best not to pay into their various money wrenches inc their " new" tax rules. Im not funding irresponsible peoples bad choices.

Dunno what the problem is, I used meth as a kid many times, first time I was about 10 yrs old although I did have soem supervision initially until I knew how to use it, I had very liberal parents who wanted me to learn new things and i really enjoyed it, remember it well, one of my friends same age also used it. The good old days when you could easily obtain it, hours of fun.

Id have zero faith in that having just asked them two questions and a day later being told the opposite, I went physically to immigration as well not even phoned them to be sure, they still changed their answer the next day.

Ive done the marriage visa for over 15 years at Hua Hin, first year had total %$^t of an Officer, wife complained and it got passed as the officer said one photo did not include ALL the bed, ridiculous what thats supposed to prove with 10% of the bed missing?, theyve been ok ever since UNTIL last week , we normally go in twice, once to check what they need the day before "this year "and the next to actually do it. That paper is normal now. Went in as normal on day before it was due , was told the bank letter was ok from that date for tomorow and now told you dont need the witness to be there physically as has been the case for the last 2 years. Went in the next day and the officer that told us wasnt in, but now it WASNT ok for either, new bloke never seen him before, then he starts saying we need an electric bill with the Wifes name on and her name must be on the tabian baan with me ? I have a yellow book and she owns 10 condo;s and moves her name round when she wants to sell one, something about tax , dont ask me. Anyway she said this to him and "eventually" it got done. But whats normally a fairly quick if lengthy paperwork exercise took 4 hours. I think the guy was just a <deleted> this year but who knows......also were "offered" one of their witnesses, so the whole things a farce really and a money making op now. In the end we called our policemans wife as witness and went an got her gave her 500 baht and lunch for her time.

this response is so full of crap, i mean i have 2 friends who have solar businesses selling mostly to Thais...............WOW big surprise in Thailand who would have thunk that, and what the hell is my commen t about byd seal, I asked whats its depreciation would be, honestly this threads so full of <deleted> it defies belief, stating stuff I havent even said and another gasp wow 180k members in a population of 70 million when they say evangelists now I know what they mean, Ill leave you to your little clique club and of course call away at TROLL its the go to response KHUN La

youre talking <deleted>e , most Thais dont have enough money until tomorrow.,

Nowhere have I said any of that is wrong, so you have no idea of my understandings, what I have said is for most people in Thailand its impractical, Jesus they havent got enough money to get through today yet here someone posts about a 1.6million baht car running their house as almost normal with a roof with more solar panels than the size of most peoples houses and a water collection system thats enormous...........its simply not practical or even remotely affordable for most Thais. Thats guys house is an exception, a massive exception and at a large financial cost out of reach of most Thais.

Is that a requirement before posting then, Ok leave you to it like many other taboo subjects such as global warming, transgenders, racism, EV's solar is now in that category it seems. U may delete all my posts.

does your average somchai in the village have a 1.6m baht car and 30 panels on their roof with battery back up? seems most Thai live hand to mouth and as pointed out above 1 -18000 btu aircon is gonna eat up 30k in solar panels alone without batteries..however knock yerself out telling me how almost everyone can now afford it when most cant. Its not about me having solar its about most Thais having it. I could have solar till it shines out my arse but I dont want any maintenance hassles just another load of stuff to break at some point, Whats easy is mains power.

whatever happened to honouring a contract in this world?

They can also move on to the cat and pigeon problem the "kind" feeders have produced, theres no end to the stupidity.

Having had rats inside a building here gnawing at pipework I hope u have some sort of protection for that lot

let me know the depreciation in 3-4-5years time on those as i suspect its going to be high, total cost of solar install total cost of batteries, impractical for most.

126k UK https://www.comparethemarket.com/car-insurance/content/road-traffic-accidents/ Thailand 939k https://www.nationthailand.com/thailand/general/40023780 yea looks pretty similar to me give or take 800k must be the Thai calculator....pls respond with at least 5000 words or more or get the guy who tells us hes been here 20 years or more to chip in, I promise I wont be reading it😉

Thats one hell of an assumption for 4 years I was doing 30k a year in Thailand in the UK way more, had to buy a new car every year . Im 108 years old, first responders here are fast...........speed = $$$$

ive always had a good🤪 eye. My trip is about 250k each way I live past HH. I guess I must have imagined the whole thing, you know come to think of it youre right, Ive never seen better more caring, safer, unselfish drivers anywhere in the world. Ever drive at night....

Head of village tells the villagers not to burn in the day burn at night as no one will come to check.

I get flocks of them fly over the land at head height around 6-7am everyday......so no still many about, but best I ever saw was a group of 6 Hornbills fly over, only ever seen them once very low easily identifiable, had Peacock a few months back appear otuside my garage.

Increasing living standards and giving women the right to birth control.......something many religions do not like.

I know from driving in the UK that I rarerly came across any severe accidents like I see here pickupsd sliced in half, brains all down the road motorocyclke riders cut in half as a lorry goes over them etc, UK daily roadkill 3 I think, Thailand pick a number 65-100 daily

So we have as difference of opinion, welcome.

Sorry too busy,off out to buy 100 packets of incense sticks.........

No problem at all Ive been doing that for years, built 4 houses by myself ( i dont mean supervise I mean lay thre blocks) take care of 5 rai of fruit, so the choice is $10 or none at all, pretty simple choice, work hard save hard, start young and save. Alternatively whine an moan how lifes not fair. On top of that certainly no one around Prachuap will work for less than 400 a day.
