Lorry

Did I say I saw it on the internet? I didn't. I asked BBL. And I did something like that. Worked very well. For a couple of 100,000s, and a limited time frame (like a year), any other solution - like what you suggest - is not practicable. Way too much trouble. And the expenses will eat the principal. I would do it differently if it's many million baht ( @TallGuyJohninBKK sounds good). And if OP is just looking for a solution for his eventual death in 10, 20 or 50 years, in that case the whole thread doesn't make sense. In any case, and whatever solution, for sums like OP's sums, I would keep the Thai judicial system out of it - as has been said by another poster. It will be a lot of effort, very expensive, and in the end, the bureaucrats and lawyers will cheat the girl out of her money. Uneducated, poor Thai girls always lose against the vultures, be it Thai bureaucrats or lawyers from our home-countries. I have seen both. Keep them out.

Yep. A short time (only a year) after my mRNA vax i broke my leg - i should have known! Later my father died, he was only 91, and even he wasn't vaccinated, I did my research on TrumpsTruth.com and found, that the death of close relatives is a well known side-effect of mRNA.

It's not the membership that gets you a discount. It's the BigC credit card that gets you a discount. Completely different.

This problems about matching Sim and bank account are easily sorted out: It only took me five calls to AIS, increasingly frustrating. A couple of calls to my bank. Three visits to three different AIS Centers. Two visits to 2 different Samsung centers and 3 visits to phone repair shops, because the nice AIS girl who finally helped me match Sim and bank broke my phone (with the banking app) for good. A visit to NASA to buy a new phone, that was the easiest part. Setting up a new banking app on the new phone, easy. So easy!

Here is Bangkok Bank's answer: a cashier check doesn't expire. Anyway, if you fear it might not be honored after many years, you can always cash it from time to time and buy a new one. 20 minutes, 20 baht.

The Chinese - the only ones that matter - do not agree: https://www.bangkokpost.com/opinion/opinion/3067122/safer-tourism-needed-now From this editorial: "recently, there have been reports of Thai police extorting bribes from them for minor felonies such as smoking vapes, as well as offering VIP services to Chinese tourists in exchange for money. Worse still are the reports of Chinese nationals being kidnapped here by gangsters, including their own compatriots. A recent case in Ubol Ratchathani province saw seven Chinese men kidnapped by eight people, including four police officers and one ranger, who were later arrested for allegedly trying to extort them out of 2 million baht. This problem has existed for years, and the previous administration led by Gen Prayut Chan-o-cha also failed to tackle it. Meanwhile, immigration police graft and fake national ID cards or illegal permits issued by the Ministry of the Interior allow many foreigners to live and operate underground businesses here."

You can always bring your own oxygen tank. You can also rent one. It's your choice.

Good. Working barefooted in the rice fields (Thailand, Indonesia) gives you melioidosis, leptospirosis, etc etc. In rich countries (Japan, Taiwan) rice farmers wear boots. Gives you fungus, pretty much untreatable, but not deadly.

Connda is writing typical ##### Actually, if you live on a farm in Mukdahan and do some outdoor activities there, the risk of melioidosis is not negligible. You will meet people who have it. It doesn't help that the medical system in Mukdahan or Yasothon is fairly limited. If you live in a high-rise condo in Bangkok, and never venture out of your building as you have a 7/11 in the building, don't worry about melioidosis.

Face scans (BP yesterday ) You are not supposed to use your gf's app to order a car and than travel anonymously. It's called surveillance. DNA tests, like in China and the US, will come later.

That really needs complete trust. And she will spend all of it before you die. You can buy a cashier's check (bank check, bought over the counter for 20 B) at any branch, in her name. Keep it in your drawer together with your passport etc. She will find it, once you are dead (if she is an uneducated rural girl, it would be helpful to explain beforehand what a cashier's check is). She can cash it at any big branch, takes 20 minutes, completely legal. This requires a lot less of trust. She may not know of the existence of the check, or she may know, but doesn't know, where exactly you keep it.

Never heard of this. Is this really true??? I used to have BigC membership. All I got for it were endless (like, a meter long) slips of paper. Neither I, nor any Thai I asked, ever figured out anything useful from these slips. So now I always say, I don't have membership. Faster, anyway. Am I missing something? 5% on all BigC purchases would be a lot, I hardly shop anywhere else.

In Bangkok, you can be pretty sure that water playing will be only from 13th to 15th. Other places might be different

You got your answer 5 posts later, by Britman

If you had read the story you would have seen the number. Yes, it's very low, but I am not going to explain the necessity of rabies vaccine. Go and get yourself bitten!

If Fucidine helps, it was folliculitis.

In my home-country, there are subsidized fares, too. There would be a huge outcry if they wouldn't apply to foreigners. Actually, only foreign tourists have to pay (the subsidized fares). Foreign migrants don't have to pay at all.

That's true. And I was recently told that all these 'polite nothings' (like when an American buying a coke at 7/11 says 5 or 10 times 'thank you') were not the norm in my home-country either, about 100 years ago.

A nonsensical thing farang do: sitting on a chair if there's a perfectly clean floor to sit

Interesting. Could you please explain this a bit more?

Motorcycle accident, with brain injury and some broken bones

Which plan do you have, seems not expensive at all.

Baht (you can figure this out if you read his whole post). So hos policy is dirt cheap

In Thai relationships, it is considered a sign of trust and real love not to use a condom. The pill is cheap and easily avalable, and at strategic locations (like Ramkhamhaeng) there are 24-hours pharmacies to sell the morning-after pill. Of course, the pill doesn't help against HIV and STDs

Isn't Canada Day now on the 4th July?
