Thats why i said i will probably know weeks in advance. I have friends who work in the banking sector in Thailand and mrs. Smiths childhood friend is an Economist who gives us advice. It’s all about getting your ducks in a row.

You can because a friend of mine did that very thing!

Well said mate. No matter what I know I will be fine. Mrs Smith too. We have assets, cash, gold and investments. I will know probably a few weeks in advance before anything drastic does happen here as I keep my ear firmly to the ground. At that point, any remaining debts will be paid off and we will liquidate everything we own into USD. If things get really bad we will move to somewhere our cash takes us furthest. In such dire circumstances you have to look after you and yours, it’s every man for himself, dog eat dog. The 30’s are shaping up to be a rather depressing time imo.

They are just jealous they dont have a strong passport like you. Let em be angry. You’ll soon be three sheets to the wind down your local!

Again, if there is no money in his bank account, and he keeps shtum about any potential relatives that can help out financially, then where is the money going to come from? It’s a case of no money no honey. No honey for the hospitals, that is…

And if you dont have the money in your bank to pay after you have received treatment? Off to the gulag is it? I dont think so, Lou.

It does happen. It happened to my sister.

Legally, there is nothing the hospital can do to stop a patient walking off the premises.

The fact is, any and all emergency cases admitted to almost any hospital worldwide are the responsibility of that hospital until discharged by a doctor. The alternative would be to have hordes of sick people dying in hospital foyers because they didn’t have the money for the emergency treatment that could have saved their lives. This is a predicament that hospitals actively try to avoid.

Thats a matter of opinion and you are entitled to yours. Try proving that in a court of law though. Not a chance big bird!

Just walk out the hospital when you feel better and fly home to get proper treatment. Tell em to stick the 400K! legally he doesn’t have to pay a penny. despite what anyone says, it is a hospitals duty to accept any and all emergency cases without question. Im not saying to walk out without paying is morally right, thats another story, but legally he doesn’t have to pay a cent.

too true mate, I could buy a lambo today and pay for it in cash if I wanted to. dont want to though,

....it must have been hungry.

sometimes it's buy 2 get one free, especially round Christmas and depending on how desperate the curb crawlers are. that's what a mate of mine tells me, anyway

should be good fella. just watch you dont put your back out with all that sexercise ;)

....You clearly have no idea how Economics works.

The Thai Economy WILL crash at some point in the near future. And bob smith will be here to hoover up all the spoils. I am cash rich baby and the ladies sure love it!

what was there to criticize in the first place? Geezer said the forum sucks, I said you know where the door is. and you said so do I.... Why would I want to leave when I like it here and I don't think it sucks? and why did you feel it was necessary to stick your nose in?

I'm not the one complaining about the forum am I, mouth!

I'm skint mate....

same mate. she's got it all. a far cry from the 'herrro, welcome' crowd on walking street...

nice one mate. you are winning at life ;)

Mrs. Smith works. I spend. she is absolutely minted, as am I.

will they be as attentive and responsive as 'support' on aseannow?

Security guards in Thailand are a complete and utter waste of money. They don't make me feel safe at all. Quite the contrary, they actually get on my nerves!
