I think the red envelope is 500 baht per month. I could see 5000 if the owner is making 50,000 off some illegal stuff....but in this case it seems like the owner is legit and the cops are greedy.

I swear there is a BIG shopping center near me where everything is fake. fake shoes, for sure. fake everything, sold as "real." After a zillion years of living, I've learned to spend MORE and order from a reputable store online. If it's something disposable like shirts or something, fake is great!!!! electronics? nah, go real.

I've bought so many used lemons. Work great for like 6 months, one was covered under some weird warranty, ended up selling them all. It's NEVER the obvious lemon, but you know they lie to you and something will go wrong and they never tell you everything so you have to tell yourself the price "discount" makes up for it. nah. New BMW's were not cheap. I've owned five of them. yea, I probably "lost" like $60,000 on cars, but I guess I liked the status symbol (worth about $10,000 because some girls liked them). My most expensive car got zero compliments. lol.

I just got home.... Pattaya night life is the best!!!!!!!!!!!! OK, I'll sleep until 8 p.m. and then I better find a place open until 4!!!!!!

You would think the invention of the internet would narrow this gap................NOPE!!!!! 50 years is probably WAY more accurate than anyone thinks. 50 years ago America was better and worse in many, many ways.....but overall better and improving at some things while getting worse at others. I've been gone for 10-years, so maybe in 40-years it will be time to say good-bye to Thailand.

You will (a) end up HATING foreigners after you hear their horrible stories and (b) never want friends again in your life. This is a place for loners hiding in Pattaya or in ChiangMai telling others they are a famous influencer while NOT wanting to share their experiences. Zero foreign friends, but plenty of Thai girl "friends"....... as long as the money lasts

You haven't lived until you tried Mad Dog!!!! 1980's, drink, puke (vomit), forget everything... mad dog!!!!! I don't remember the cool MD label........surprised it still exists.

My dad always said, "save money on stuff like eye surgery, any surgery, anything health or education related." "Dad, what should I spend my money on then?" "Well, Pattaya and good sushi!!!" low cost = blind. lol

Xiaomi was NOT as good as I hoped it would be. A disappointment, but I used it for a few years. Honor phone better than I thought. Oppo worse Apple worse Another apple worse Google much better, but not 5000k sorry and never Samsung. I think Honor is a sub of Huawei, so I guess that's my recommendation around 5k if possible

She hates you because of how you look. despises you so much she wears a mask. You probably get her mad and raise her blood pressure just by showing up. You take time and give her money!!!! I don't care if she's a 5-star chef........... this is food made with hate, not love. lol

death pollution. WAY more cars, more pollution. people not polite when compared to other cities Tons of cheap backpackers who have way to much complaining energy overpriced lots of Chinese, but that could be a positive. more dangerous roads, but that's normal. farangs will give you the evil eye, or not look at you at all. very anti-social. I'm not in CM now, lol....................but I'm sure it's gotten worse and worse and worse and worse........ People MUST make it a "great" city to justify being in Thailand, but actually there are WAY more cities in SEAsia 100x better.... good news is most Thai girls or ladyboys in CM have already dated 100000000000000 dirty, cheap, boozing farangs before, so their English is probably OK. lol

I don't understand why ANYBODY wants a nice house, can't they just live in a 3000 baht room??!?!! Do they need 9 bathrooms!! Why have a nice car, my 1975 pinto can go 60 kph!!!! Why a nice watch, just get a $10 disposable. why nice pants...why a nice shirt.....why real diamonds....why gold, why silver, why anything expensive!!! yea, cheap is the way!!!!! You are living the Thailand dream!!!! Cheap Charlie for life!!!!!! Why get in a private jet, I ride a bus.......

Now I am reassured, great work catching them!!!! Both made 140,000,000 each, now retired. Fines will amount to 500 baht. Good system, nothing to see here.. move along!!!!!!

I'm Chinese and in China and we asked the same question when we heard the farang was in Thailand!!!!! Avoid those falangs!!!!! I'm coming with my 8,483,088 friends and we will be in groups of 300 or more!!!!!!!!!! Remember, way back around 1500 AD Thailand was probably like 20% Chinese. 0.0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001 percent farang In fact, prostitution was legal back then for the Chinese workers...... Pattaya reminds me of the old days!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Later, after zero deliberation, they got on a bus and headed to Pattaya!!!!!! Upon arriving back home, only the rice stories were told. Wow dad, you are such a kind, nice soul to help the poor. How he misses Pattaya.....

human trafficking. minor raped, since cannot consent farangs breaking international laws kids forced into sex slavery if you have been there, shame on you. destroying children. helping evil spread

As a former teacher, I've only seen about 80% of my students try to cheat. I probably wasn't quick enough to see the other 20%.

sounds like a match made in heaven!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm 98 and my gf is 19. When she turns 20, I break up with her and get another 19 year old!!!!!! Great conversations about Sponge Bob and TikTok and the latest nail polish craze!!!!!! Thailand...........................yes!!!! lol

Don't worry!!!! It's only been one year. Expect some news in 2038, maybe around September. I've done many 20,000 baht online purchases, but never over 50,000. This dude would not enjoy my 20 baht noodle shop. lol 157k could be a vehicle, sure. do it yourself. bank, local police, follow the money trail.

You are RIGHT!!! I'm in Russia now and most of the buildings are empty. I just found a sweet castle to stay in........sign on the front..... "Went to Pattaya, won't come back!!!!"

1. The dead is dead 2. Jab is better than getting sick 3. Long term Covid maybe 4. Now they tell us! 5. One study is everything funded by who? Lol. Crazies?

I'm a serious food writer. I have reviewed Red Lobster in AMERICA ONLY!!!!! In Thailand, I'm sure the best of the best of the best don't sue in. In America, absolute overpriced garbage. horrible. worst of the worst of the worst.

EVERYONE must know these are the most dangerous roads. At 20, you can find the internet. You can do some searching. You can be a responsible adult. play the game, pay the man!!!! I've never rented a motorbike, never will. Not worth it. So there are never stories about me. Want some excitement, understand the risks..... This is not a NORMAL country when it comes to being on a motorbike. I don't care about the overcharging, this is the result. If you are overcharged and not want to pay, check out. sorry, no symphony from me and motorbike accidents with farang. group of people, rent a car. take a bus. train. I'm going to the MOST DANGEROUS country in the world for motorbikes and will rent a motorbike. ok

Gay hookers come on bro……..

What are you talking about? Compare America to Iraq. Go live in Iraq!!!!!!! When you are in trouble, call on Iraq. Compare literally every metric Iraq versus America. Iraq would lose on every single one. Don't be sooooo salty Thailand didn't even CONSIDER asking your country for anything, not one thing, probably never heard of your country and on a map it's blacked out with ???????? Facts are facts. Don't worry, maybe Taiwan will call on your country...... NOT
