  1. I would teach her to fish. Look at possible business opportunities, her taking a loan out and building something from there. I know it is a fake story. I always ask for ideas on earning additional income. When they don't want to work then run, run fast, run far. You will always be the ATM.
  2. Enjoy the lovely accomodations. I hope your cell mates will give you a friendly welcome once word gets around what you did.
  3. I see it people will just say they have Alzheimer's disease. Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). HIV/AIDS. Crohn's disease. Epilepsy and seizures. Glaucoma. Multiple sclerosis and muscle spasms. Posttraumatic stress disorder. Serious and ongoing pain. Serious nausea or vomiting caused by cancer treatment Or any other qualifying symptoms to get the med card. I think I qualify for stress and pain as I have a Thai girlfriend
  4. 20 years so you couldn't have calmly inquired about the theft allegation and clear the matter up? I understand it's not easy sometimes like herding cats getting everyone on the boat again but you choose how to react angry or just laugh it off. We apologize for the many idiots you have to deal with trying to elevate their social status for a video or picture.
  5. Sorry Qatar, If they are coming out of the South Carolina plant you will probably be better off buying the Comac C919. You know the saying if it's Boeing you are not going. Hopefully Boeing will get the production, quality issues worked out but with the stories from employees that say management is telling them to just push planes out and letting QA fall below specs is concerning.
  6. I've been hearing about this scam back to the Posh Pete days. Yeah, I've got the officers/officials paid off you will just walk right through. Nice little holiday and some spending cash. Sorry, I know it's a tough lesson to learn but anyone who is believing this needs help.
  7. Naturegift Coffee. No joke. Know three people tried it and had positive results.
  8. Kid doesn't have phone with SIM service? First thing I did when bought the kid a phone is set up the Track My Phone account. Hope she is found safely soon.
  9. Strange question but anyone noticed that claw machines in Central, Terminal, etc being all off past week in Pattaya. Is this a new law or did the operator just fold?
  10. You want to crack down on it quit placing trees, electrical boxes, etc zig zag down the sidewalks. Yes signs, etc also. Hopefully the one photo I saw was accurate and they just warn once then seize whatever and put it in the bin.
  11. "Although these efforts have not been widely publicized, he reassured the public that security measures are being implemented thoroughly." I can only hope and pray at temple for this to be true. The headwinds could be from higher cost, less disposable income. Japan, Vietnam etc have been investing in growing tourists, only so many may be looking at Asia for their destination this year
  12. Some of us are eager to pay our property taxes in Thailand. That statement has never been heard in the US. I understand why someone in the US complains about inflation when property taxes, health insurance, college tuition, eating at restaurants, and many other things are expensive compared to other countries.
  13. The Hotels have to be licensed, pay taxes, have technicians available 24/7, some pay franchise fees and have certain certifications also. Not every room is rented everyday so the price is actually the cost of the room, hotel expenses for an estimated average occupancy time frame. Airbnb just has building maintenance expenses, annual property tax, and possible loan costs. Cleaning fees are additional but included in the hotel. I liked Airbnb many years ago because the unit was in a building for residents and I want quiet and to relax when I go back to the room. Hotels people come and go at all hours, come back and make noise after drinking and don't care if you disturb the neighbors
  14. Definitely one of punishments should be that they spend time in a morgue to see what possibly caused the patients early demise. They want to block an ambulance but if he were inside that ambulance he would want people to clear the path. Definitely think some of these people's brains are baked from being in the sun to long.
  15. From what I've seen the Chinese mainly visit in tour groups, travel around to pre-arranged destinations, eat at buffet restaurants, not really causing any trouble, don't seem to buy much since it is probably cheaper for them to buy in China. Am relieved that the 50 tour buses that use to parked throughout Phra Tamnak have dwindled with the reduction of Chinese Tourists.
  16. I'm not from UK but wouldn't you just get the increase for 1 year which internet says is 4.1%? The airline and cost of living in the UK would end up putting you even further in the negative.
  17. Then my plan worked. The appearance is of low value to deceive any potential thieves. My friends have had their gold necklace, gold bracelet liberated from them because they want to be flashy and try to impress others. I don't blame the victims, it takes some next level stupid to try to steal from someone on a plane, with usually limited escape routes, cameras everywhere in airport, and adequate security.
  18. No just running away from what they somehow classify as insurance which oddly enough includes a premium payment, deductible and co-pay. Talking about Scams. So I pay, then for you to pay I have to pay a certain amount first, and then that is not enough we split the bill 60% you pay 40% I pay. Does that sound like something you would be interested in? You are essentially self funded in the US since to afford a lower premium you have a high deductible.
  19. I just wear cargo pants with zippered pockets. Backpack has Water, snacks, tissues, foam earplugs and are not desirable for a thief so never been stolen anywhere in the world.
  20. Does anyone know if the Chonburi/Jomtien Immigration has the ability to make an appointment online? I checked the Main Immigration website and it had every Division but what I believe is the Central Eastern Division for online appointment application. FYI, for a Extension of Stay based on Retirement. Thanks.
  21. Dunning-Kruger effect on display here. If he wanted to separate from his wife he could at least wait til he got home.
  22. So they have a parking problem in these key areas. Sounds like the need for either mass transit or more efficient use of Truck Taxis with parking lots in certain areas were people can park and ride the Taxi or Mass Transit to their destination. The other problem with congestion is the ability of an Ambulance, Police, or Fire Truck to reach their destination in a reasonable time.
  23. I'm waiting for the Neural Implant with many languages to be created. I'm to stupid to learn Thai. Additionally I enjoy not understanding a lot of the nonsense that is spoken on a daily basis. Keeps that little bit of hope for humanity alive.
  24. Thanks, I always give them to many papers and they give back what they don't need. Just trying to make sure less familiar are prepared.
  25. I don't see the requirement for the hand drawn map to your residence on the list for Extension of Retirement using the 800,000 baht in the bank method. Is this no longer a requirement at Chonburi/Jomtien immigration? Thanks.
