  1. No problem, you just need your new bank info to add yourself as a recipient.
  2. Bribe? I don't think so. A bribe would be given to the authorities to quietly drop the case. A cash offer of financial compensation to the alleged victim is called an "out of court settlement."
  3. At this point it could be Bill Shatner's spoken word rendition of "Yankee Doodle Dandy". This one's from '78, cover of an Elton John song, so correct era and lifestyle.
  4. Taxact seems pretty useless for free filing if you can't file a Schedule B. If still having problems, try this one: https://www.olt.com/main/home/default.php Includes: Home ownership Crypto or Stock Sale Rental Property Freelance/gig worker Self-employed Contractor
  5. Yes, you screwed up. Simple solution. Just pay the extra $80 to the agent.
  6. Sorry about that! I was responding to a poster who claimed Chinese headlines would not read the same. I posted the actual headline with the English translation, plus a link to the source so that readers could check my work. I didn't wanna just say "nuh-uh!"
  7. Shirley, you can find a lovely, young local lass willing to learn the exquisite art of baking beans. Teach her how, and she can sell via Facebook to all the old foreign farts on AN.
  8. I've got four savings accounts at Bangkok Bank, two fixed accounts, and a mutual fund account. Open as many as you like.
  9. Do you have the passport translation and MFA legalization you used for your marriage certificate? Yellow book took 20 minutes, no charge, issue pink ID also took 20 minutes, 60 baht.
  10. Oh, yes. Very stupid. Wife's family should be paying YOU the dowry.
  11. Fly to Bangkok. Wander into any street market during off-peak times. Approach random seller. Order two dishes of xxx at 40 baht each. Offer additional 500 baht if they show you how to make it yourself.
  12. This is kinda clicky-baity. This fine gentleman was sentenced as an "habitual offender" ( two prior felonies) which under state guidelines tripled his five-year sentence for arson. Arson usually carries a sentence of at most two years. The hate crime enhancement raised that to five, as state law says a hate crime must be charged at one level higher, raising it from an aggravated misdemeanor to a felony, class D that carries a 5-year sentence. He received 15 years, the maximum for habitual offender.
  13. You have internet banking approved? Log on. Register new account. Register old account. Transfer all funds from old account to new account. Old account with zero balance should close automatically.
  14. Not exactly. Where's the insult? Calling a man a man is simply stating a fact.
  15. Jeeze, man, it was just an April 1st prank. I didn't realize your request for equal prankin' on the other guy wasn't serious. Oh! I get it! April Fool's!
  16. Well, to be fair, he did say two ladyboys, so grabbin' 'em by the kracken............
  17. There's no need to wait to file an FBAR. I keep a small spreadsheet updated, and just need the conversion rate to file early in January. Only takes about 10 minutes online for 7 Thai accounts and 3 Chinese bank accounts.

  19. Dude, an immigration officer pulled you aside and asked some questions. You were not "arrested." Had they not let you in, you would have been denied entry, not "deported." As to being denied what you are entitled to, no, you are "entitled" to nothing. However, you may be seen as abusing the visa-free entry for genuine tourists. So, yeah, that was a "rant."
  20. Well, that seems perfectly reasonable. That's what I always do when a Chinese man repeatedly attempts to rape me and takes my cell phone. I surely don't want the police to be able to ping the phone to track down the alleged rapist......that I won't bother to report.
  21. In other news, Thai man videos foreign woman micturating and posts on intertubes. Netizen outrage against man for broadcasting obscene or offensive content via public websites in..........3.....2....."She's a witch!"
