Could you please explain to me why a tourist should NOT have a bank account?

What's so dangerous about if?

(And please don't give me the cr@p abot mules. Mules are Thai. )

Bank accounts in foreign countries are used to evade taxes.

You come as a tourist, open a bank account and voila have access to several different marketplaces as a "Thai resident". Also very useful for crypto scams etc.

I think having a work permit or a Thai tax ID is perfectly fair for opening a Thai bank account.

Of course, foreigners in thailand with no income in thailand should pay zero tax.

Can you imagine what would have happened if, say, Trump had been photographed doing that to his wife?

 

Or Boris Johnson face palming his wife?

 

World outrage.

 

But Macron gets a face palm and everyone nervously laughs it off. Totally normal if your wife is 25 years older.

 

I am telling you those two, there is something very not normal about them.

So you don't believe Trump?

The key thing apart from what you mention is that the insurance cannot throw you out/not renew when you get old(er).

But they can deny your claims. A win win for them.

I see this in the forums all the time .........

Posters looking down on guys living in Pattaya, elderly, guys living on a pension, living in a rented condo, supporting a woman and her family, men spending time in bars, or smoking weed/tobacco, etc.

 

Why not just enjoy your own life and stop looking for fault or judging other people?

Funny you post this cuz you are the first one to laugh and judge the guys who don't pay to be touched.

Especially if their wife is full blooded Chinese with MBA

Met one off Tinder. Late 30s, runs a nail salon in HCMC, had flown in on the aforementioned tourist visa. Had a great attitude and lot of fun. 

 

This was, of course a casual encounter and not paid a paid exchange, right?

Because I can't imagine a woman running a nail salon to fly all the way to Thailand to prostitute herself 

When living in another country you should always have plan B C and D.

How did expats manage before internet?

You shouldn't be paying anything extra even with tariffs. If amazon "forgot" to include tariffs in their prepaid import fees then open a chat with customer service and they will sort it out. You should be paying zero, no matter what ups or Thai customs say.

What are your import fees on the invoice?

Also, what does the tracking say?

Ever since the election, I've had this persistent mental hitchhiker. It won't get out of my head, and frankly, it's starting to smell a bit like stale campaign promise.

How would Donald Trump deal with Thainess?

No, from a legal perspective she owned the condo. The bank just had a security interest in it. 

 

Very normal.

 

I am actually impressed how a 711 girl can own a condo. No idea how she could do that, even if she earned 30000.

Im impressed that you believe every word these women say.

Gotta go. Canada  is expensive and have to kick wife out to get some work.

I wasn't bragging, she told me this. She bought her own condo. I had no reason to doubt her. 

 

 

Well of course they do, and they care about a better lifestyle. Even the 711 girl who owned her own condo, you can bet your bottom dollar she wanted a man who would help her get a better condo.

 

In fact she told me, if I come to move to CM with you then you have to pay me X so I can pay my condo. She was totally up front about this. So you say they can earn their own living, yes they can, but they want a man who helps them pay the bills, it's just the way it is. Because they can get away with that. If we could get women to pay our bills, we'd probably do it too.

 

Ultimately I have no problem with hypergamy, a woman selecting for a more competent or richer male. This is how society progresses. Is it harsh on us men sometimes, sure, but this is how society progressed.

She didn't own her own condo. The bank did and was looking for a guy love her true to pay for it.
