I also thought about visiting the AKB48 theater in Tokyo. 

 

 

Feels like a million years ago, but I taught university classes in japan and faced a room of girls that really did look like that.

Brother hitting the PowerBall (since I stopped buying), and throwing me $1M bone.

 

I can't think of anything else, as have anything & everything I want/need.  Maybe a time machine and go back to being 21 yrs old again.   Strangely I'd being doing the same thing that I'm doing now, (chillin') just look and feel younger.

Just curious, if you already have everything you want, well done, but then, what would you do with the million?

And a follow up question that is asked in good faith, how much do you spend a month in thailand to have that everything you want lifestyle?

Go to a few luktung/morlam/likay/ramwong/kantrum concert, thousands of Thais and you will be the only white face, can't get more assimilated than that, especially if you smuggle drink in then start dancing!

 

Leaned more about Thais at concerts than anywhere else

 

 

Do you actually enjoy this music? Played it while reading the posts and the after 5 minutes found it quite unbearable.

I would love to hear of some storiesd on here from guys who left it all behind .

Last year I was in a bar in Soi Bukhao I actually bought the bar owner 2 or 3 expensive drinks to hear him tell me how his 2 adult sons( in Belgium) had not spoken to him since 2017 when at the age of 57 he divorced and came to Pattaya.

 

One of his sons was a police officer in Belgium and he spoke highly of him until I made him sad to talk about him ,"you must be proud of him " I said to his smiling shaking head ,yes he said half sad half happy face

 

"Sad he thinks your a failure of a Dad " I said back to his facial expressions turning to sadness , "he will probably never talk to you again " I said to him to watch his sadness 

Imagine you were put on trial, who in your life, from workplace to "friends" if you have any, even from this forum do you think would stand for your defence?

come on GG, you can be better than this!

Most people, but maybe not some of the misanthropic posters on here would say that being loved is the most valuable thing in the world. Beautiful people are loved easily. Women's lives are especially determined by their looks. Genetic inheritance seems the quintessential example of luck.

Fair enough. Men are boring. What you up to? Not much. What you know? Not much. What you think of (insert politician) big rant.

 

Women are more interesting. Better to look at too.

 

 

 

 

Do you follow any youtubers? If so, how many women to how man men? 

On the whole I find older men much more interesting than older women.

I don't go by studies or polls, as I didn't asked the questions.   I go by what women told me.  Most enjoying the relaxed, now worry free feeling, and getting their freak on, is way may enjoyable.   

Why do you spend your time getting to know post menopausal women well?

Divide the world into <deleted>, ok and nice (for you) and after that it isn't where you live but how you live.

I bet there's plenty happy and also depressed people in Monaco and my guess is the ratio would be the same in chiangmai.

Tuna and chickpeas are the cheapest form of high protein food. 

where to buy chickpeas in thailand?

In UK have Amazon unlimited for music. Great and only equivalent of about 200bht.

can I bring the echo dot to Thailand and keep my subscription or even get new one?

if not what equivalent speaker and service should I buy?

Why worry about free? An experience professional is worth the money without the headache of attachment.

Yes, I agree. Same as when I want to meet up with a friend. I don't see any difference between having real friends who like me, I just pay someone to pretend they do.

people say cost of living!! BS it's getting the same everywhere/ it's the pussssy admit it. cuz there is no women back home, your old ass would get an 19,20,21,22,23,24 year old to sleep with you

My council tax bill on modest terraced house in uk £125

Utilities to keep rooms warm not house warm £200

Rent in a small UK city of I were renting my two bedroom house £1000

That's £1300 or 52k baht a month to live 3 hours from London.

Thailand costs the same?

A big reason why the women's movement has been so successful in dominating the media and government iin the West is that when a woman opens up about "womans" problems all her peers rally around and provide support.

A big reason why there's is no equivalent men's movement is that as this thread shows, as soon as a man admits to a "man's" problem he is lampooned and ridiculed.

However, the only debate now, IMO, is whether humankind is so rotten that the ending of homo sapiens will be a good idea, or not.

are you rotten to the core? do you deserve to carry on?

A 500 Bhat room and a 50 Baht Pad Thai may seem cheap , but it wouldn't be cheap if you factored in lost wages you would have received back home .

  Working back home and you would ended up the day with more $ than you began it with , being in Thailand and you will have ended up with less

Your putting zero value on a person's time. Working is giving your time away for money. Most people aspire to be able to not do that.

Living the way society tells you to.

Work hard, be docile, forget who you are, get married, have children and shut it...

Charles Bukowski talked wonderfully about this.

 

 

Thank you so much for introducing me to a new voice. 

Which of his books would you recommend a first time reader?

I don't blindly accept the statements of anyone on social media. In Dr. Berry's defense, I will say he usually cites the research to support his opinions, with links to it.

 

Everyone's physiology is different. My own regimen of diet and exercise is based on a lot of research, cherry-picking what I thought made sense.

 

The results speak for themselves. I have been on medications for osteoarthritis, gastric reflux, depression, high blood pressure, night cramps and gall bladder pain, some for many years. Today, I need none of them.

 

In addition, I have been borderline diabetic with a overweight BMI and reduced kidney function. I am now back to normal blood sugar levels, have a normal BMI, and my kidney parameter has improved by 20%.

 

Part of the kidney improvement I attribute to not taking up to 750 mg of medications daily, I now only take 5 mg of medication for BPH. It makes sense the load my kidneys have to deal with is now much less.

Fantastic. Care to explain your old and new lifestyle?
