No, I come in on last comment and saw the list, and didn't notice it was someone else's post as not quoted, but do see the different name at top of list now. Don't live in USA, but asking for someone who already asked. OK, Got it. Wonder if that person lives in the USA ??? Guess that person doesn't know how to use the internet either, or both of you are being rhetorical for a but of a USA bash. Be happy you live here in TH, and hopefully don't drink Folger's.

Where do you live ??? Without name brand or vendor selling, hard to say. Why not ask Google what WalMart or Costco is selling them at. Beef comes in many grades. Coffee seems to be the correct price. What did you pay for the Folger's 6 months ago ??? Buy USA to avoid products that are affected by import tariffs. Seems a simple solution.

Certainly not an endorsement for 'SmartHome' products 😎

Along with possibly using an agent for IMM ... at a guess. Should have been on a plane, less than 5 months ago, when he could afford it, maybe, not waiting. Where's that 800k or 400k at ? 73 ... so can't complain too much. So many didn't make it that far.

Great list of the good things, now do you have any negatives that President Trump has done ???

Have to disagree with them experts, unless it's just a coincidence, which I usually don't believe in. Though can't say it's always caused by a dream, or maybe just can't remember, and one of those one minute dreams and forgot her name, sort of like a 'one night stand' Luckily there's always a warm body next to me in bed ... oh crap, that was the dog 🐶

Can't comment for myself, as don't use, except for Imm. In every month, out every 3rd month. Limited features due to USA rules. Wife is quite happy, as am I, as they call and inform her when to move money around to avoid taxes, which would add up to quite a bit per year. No probs for her transferring funds, paying for things, along with unsecured CC issued (Visa), even though unemployed. She doesn't hold any loans with any banks. Interest sucks, but that's banks worldwide and why I never used them, except back in the '80s' for a couple mortgages & lines of credit for investing. They are what they are, and smart people don't use them, or keep money in them, when alternatives are available.

Waiting on COLA, but so far, doing an excellent job ... ... Tax break next year if needed ... border fairly secure ... criminals getting deported

Don't live in either, but it would have to be Songkhla, as smaller and closer to all the water. From the edges of both, they aren't but 15-20 mins apart. Convenient to have Hatyai that close, as better, more choices for shopping & hospitals, if needed.

I use to do the almost yearly or so full work up, as OP, plus a bit more. Now I only get ... ... HbA1c ... lipid panel ... ap (b) .... ap (a) if never had, and just once, to know genetic disposition ... maybe, full vit / min work up, but yet to find a place that does it, though haven't looked very hard. Full work up w/ultrasounds (full abdominal) is nice to get once. PSA is useless without a baseline, but if done yearly, then can clue you in. Rest of the blood work is good to know. More info at link, as was going to point out missing things in OP, but they are included, if clicking on link. Just imagine doing that if you have questions. https://healthdeliver.asia/services/health-check-up/ Strange packages, as usually, higher price, more added on, but seems some added, some swapping going on. Never seen done like that before.

Interesting, as didn't know they offered FCD accounts. AI confirms it. If not having a trusted Thai who invests money wisely, I'd probably go that route. Especially if one is set up financially and don't really need to use much of it to live on. After mid term, depending how much the Reps lose in Congress, and if a downhill slide of the economy in USA, the Dems could regain control and USD get much stronger, as Trump prefers it weak. First term he came in around 35, and took it to 30. Trump 2, almost 34 to low 32 now. I suspect the fake COLA increase will also be low. Would be better to hold USD till next administration, as much as possible IMHO. Mine is in THB, but land appreciates faster than any exchange rate would over any 4 year period.

Was always laid back, unless in the mood to do something really stupid, just to see if I'd survive. Think I've matured, and haven't tried that it quite some time. Boring, but safer 😎

Hell yea ... I can binge on those all night, YT shorts of ICE agent arresting scum, and giving protesters against them doing their job a beat down, when they get in their face. National Guard crackin' heads is fun to watch also. Beats most new releases from HollyCrapWood, with few exceptions.

Never had Xmas spirt, till having daughter. That was short lived, as about 5 yrs old, she asked me if Santa was real. The moment I asked ... 'Do you really want to know ?' She knew she screwed herself

Easy to avoid getting killed by firearm in the USA ... don't piss anyone off. Most solved murders are committed by known assailants. And they would be, spouses, GF/BF, partners. Not victims during a crime. Already mentioned, most deaths, are suicides. Although anyone that serious, will find a way, and nice to know, an easy & quick way was available IMHO

Here's a fun fact for y'all ... hunters 'theoretically' same more lives, than people killed in 'mass school shootings'. Rational is, ~200 people die a year in auto accidents caused by deer. Now if millions, yes millions, of deer weren't killed, that ~200 would be much higher. <200 are killed in 'mass school shootings' every year. So hunters save more lives, than loss to mass school shootings by nutters. Yes, it sucks that 1 kid is killed in any school by forearms or any means at any time.

I did that above, but I must be on your ignore list ... ... assault rifle = FULLY automatic, not 'semi' ... class over https://aseannow.com/topic/1375127-deadly-shootout-rocks-downtown-alabama-2-dead-12-wounded/page/5/#findComment-20136352

They are not assault rifles. An assault rifle must be able to select or made to shoot, on fully automatic. Meaning pull the trigger once, and it continues shooting till empty or you release the trigger. With few exceptions, none have been used, and the few that have, were issued and available only to military personal. Already mention, 1970 @ Ohio State. Another involving a military issued rifle, killed 6, at a defence contractor factory, I think.

Actually none have been carried out with an assault rifle. Since they've been illegal for almost 40 years. Prior to 1986, most recent murder with assault rifle was 1970, National Guardsmen at Ohio State. Then 2 that I know of, also in Ohio, but decades earlier.

Not enough prison beds anyway. Just think of all the loss revenue, if the criminals were actually locked up and not allowed to crime crimes again.

That's correct, and all the unsolved murders (40-50%) are obviously done by legal gun owners while defending themselves, so didn't stick around to bother the PoPo with unnecessary paperwork, or clog the court's dockets with cases surely to be dismissed. You graduated from simply ignorant, to just plain silly. Smoke another one
