Somebody here gets it & has a brain, finally. ????

But the food sucks.

Ok, did you get your vaccine shot. ????

When you start feeling jittery and uncomfortable it's time to consider other transportation options.

Getting tired of looking at people's dirty feet, shorts, flip flops and stinky tee-shirts. Anyone missing being able to wear regular clothing? Yearning to wear some nice long pants, closed toe shoes and an undershirt, but it looks strange when everyone else is dressed in cheap clothes with dirty feet. I guess the closest place to get away with it would be Bangkok, but even then would look strange unless I was at work.

I dread the day i need to get my contacts renewed here. Luckily i got a large supply from the usa last time i went back.

A man can't tell another man their hobbies. The Op will need to find his own hobbies, unless he really likes buying & renting properties, that's Ok too. The reason I brought it up is that it sounds like he has a decent size savings and won't see a return on the rentals for 20 years or so. So it seemed like something most people would not do out of necessity.

You may also want to consider if you're wanting to do this because you want to make a profit, or because your bored and just need a project or something to do. A lot of guys in Thailand kind of pick up these lame business ventures just because they are sitting around and not working. That's a lot of what the buying bars is about and also the vlogging channels. Try some serious hobbies or workout routines that get your mind of just sitting around.

Very common scenario. I rented a place where the landlord lady would poke her head out and look down the hall at my comings and goings. ????

So if you're 50 you wake up at 69 and realize you're break even? After 19 years of hassle with tenants and renting it out? ???? You then have 3k baht a month coming in? That's hilarious. I guess rents may have gone up by then so you can charge more in rent???

I'm not sure what you mean. It was a compliment.

It's not income coming in until you break even.

you actually get less ???? on you when you squat the problem with squat toilets is there is not a lot of water in the bowl, there is no tank. so you get less ???? on you, but you end up smelling and seeing it much more.

you have a small crooked penis

Who cares anout the protocol. you're there with your credit card, debit card and phone. anytime your allowed you can get a one way ticket to paradise.

Probably not the ones Thailand uses.

People misinterpret anything. So what do you do just not say anything? ????????‍♂️ Some people are experts at using the exact words needed to not offend, others are not, even though they are saying the same thing.

that's your problem, not mine ????

my guess is they are not interested in returning

Calling that guy a 'big joke' is bad for the country. they need to change that asap.

Not sure if they really have 10 years. People are dropping all over in their 50's and 60's.

Never trust railings and infrastructure to support you here. They don't seem to be anchored in or made to specs. Could be on anything, a boat, roadside barrier, etc.

Sounds like a mid life crisis. Men can have them later on, but normally happens in 50's. Get books on it and try to work it through. Take a vacation away from family and home to fish with guy friends of mid life crisis age and get out of your head.

Get a job (or get out of needing a job) and up your game until they ARE interested. See you at the top buddy! ????.
