  1. So, for you retiring in Thailand is a pipe dream. If you won't risk it with 23 million. you never will. If, as another poster mentioned you have diabetes. Then for sure you will never reach 100 years of age!
  2. What makes you think you will live to be 100? Sounds like you will never retire in Thailand!
  3. No assets limit. But UK expats don't get any annual increase in the Pension if living in certain countries other than the UK.
  4. Since making that post I am aware you can now get interest on funds lodged with wise. However. if you read the details you will see that they put funds into the bond market. Whence their using Barclays and JP Morgan depending on whether your account is USD or GBP. They even explain that depending on how the bond market is doing, there may be times when there is a restriction on funds being withdrawn/converted. So funds are at risk as any investment. Seeing the state of the economy in the west with possible recession, stagflation, even a possible collapse of currencies. The bond market may be the last place to have money invested. imo. Not sure of your tax status. But you are probably liable if any tax is due on the interest earned.
  5. So you are for transitioning kids before puberty, or Just attacking him because you don't like him?
  6. Sounds like you have the problem! Afraid of letting go and living your life. As the saying goes. "The best laid plans of mice and men".
  7. I suppose it's the Republican states that have defunded the Police then! I really don't know who you are kidding. Certainly not me.
  8. Actually, as an outsider looking in. I would say the politicians are conning their electorate. Sadly the electorate are falling for the con. Banana republic anyone!
  9. I understood your post. It's just that Biden is being accused of similar things, and there seems to be proof. So forgive me if I got confused. I know Trump is a target. But everyone has him guilt before it has been proven in a court of Law. But that is just a minor detail for Trump haters! As I am sure Biden's Grifting is a minor detail for Biden supporters.
  10. the only evidence needed is Biden is senile. No way is he making policy decisions. He can't even string a sentence together.
  11. Absolute rubbish. Under colonialism they were slaves. But the colonials prospered.
  12. If you can't see that Biden is senile then you are blind!
  13. The whole thing is a joke. The UK has been powerless to stop boat people from reaching the shores of not so Great Britain. Saying it's about economics and democracy is miss characterising the problem. For centuries the west has been raping the African continent. Now they wonder why these people come to the UK. It's payback time. After centuries of colonial control. the colonies are now knocking on the door.
  14. Is it really because of Trump? I mean Biden is just a puppet the strings being pulled by someone behind the scenes! It seems to me there is a vendetta emanating from maybe the Clintons and Obama who it is suggested is really running the show. Clinton herself yet again pushing Russian interference. It seems like an easy excuse to make for a failed political system that has stopped working! It is an obsession to keep Trump out of office regardless of the damage to the country. All so Clinton can get some payback for losing to Trump!
  15. I couldn't care less. I'm not American. But Americans are so intrenched in personality politics. The country is the laughing stock of the world. What a mess your politicians have made of the country. But it seems no one care about that. It's just about stopping Trump or Biden depending on which camp you are in. It's really sad.
  16. There is no income tax on interest earned from banks. Certainly not on 800K Baht which is only about 24K GBP luck to get about 600GBP interest per year!
