Yes. Thank you pointing out and confirming exactly what I was talking about in the first place which was lefty use of far right -

kimothai replied to JoseThailand's topic in General Topics
"Far right" is simply a term used by the radical left to get attention. Even common sense seems like a far-right concept to lefties. -
Crime Brutal Bloodshed in Pattaya: Briton Stabbed, Suspects Vanish
kimothai replied to webfact's topic in Pattaya News
Not to minimize what sounds like a horrible experience (which sounds out of the ordinary) for you, I think crossing the road (assuming that's what you were doing) can be dangerous almost anywhere in Thailand. When I see cars driving badly/dangerously in Pattaya, I more often than not, notice the license plate is from outside Chonburi and usually Bangkok. -

I think it's only dangerous for people who do dangerous things. After 17 years here, never a problem, same for long term friends. -

Makes one wonder how many other completed buildings in Thailand are built to the same "standards" as the Chatuchak building? -

Markets Rebound as US and China agree to slash tariffs for 90 days
kimothai replied to Social Media's topic in World News
Cherry pick or not they are still outdated. My original post was not about defending or complaining about Trump. It was to say that people (usually the left) who only complain and never give credit when credit is due are simply people who cry wolf and after continuous complaining they just become irrelevant and in some cases become a laughing stock. (or as I stated "a car alarm that that nobody pays attention to). -
Markets Rebound as US and China agree to slash tariffs for 90 days
kimothai replied to Social Media's topic in World News
Approval ratings go up and down. I see you decided to cherry pick a chart from mid-late April (when there was a lot of tariff uncertainty). These polls/ratings are too easily manipulated and I for one have little confidence in them (as I seem to recall Hillary beating Trump). Trump moves so fast with the "art of the deal" that most ratings are outdated by the time they publish them. -

LOL S**t! Now I have to go turn off my car alarm. -
Markets Rebound as US and China agree to slash tariffs for 90 days
kimothai replied to Social Media's topic in World News
The problem, as I see it, is the only people complaining is the left in the first place. Most people understand that the work that Trump is doing takes time. The USA economy didn't get into the current mess overnight and it's not going to be fixed overnight. China has already made agreements (albeit only 90 days) so that's a great win, but time will tell. It's not just the stock (which as of yesterday is now surpassed the April 2 level) that I am talking about. It's every single thing that Trump does (and I don't think a list is required) the left is adamantly complaining. It's like the old saying of "crying wolf", after a while nobody pays any attention and worse, they just laugh about the complaining. -

Markets go down - lefties complain Markets go up - lefties complain When people complain, no matter what, they just become (as per Fetterman) a car alarm that nobody pays attention to. -
I can't imagine flying into either Bangkok airport without having a taxi waiting for me. There are so many reasonable priced services online and all you have to do is use google to find them. If personally used Mr. T for many years and never a problem. Service available 24/7. The only time service may get dicey is during Songkran.

You are correct about assigning a beneficiary to a individual brokerage account in a Schwab International account (ie :you can't. I tried unsuccessfully). You can make an individual a "trusted person" who can have full control of your account. I believe that the "trusted person" is canceled upon your passing. You can have a beneficiary on a Roth IRA and I'm assuming a 401k is the same (I currently have a beneficiary on a Roth). I know this doesn't answer your specific question, just FYI.

Tourism Thailand Acts to Boost International Tourist Safety Amid Decline

I think an old proverb is appropriate for Thailand: "you reap what you sow". -
Kamala Harris Reemerges with a Stark Warning on Democracy’s Future
kimothai replied to Social Media's topic in World News
Well, if you want to discount the only thing (Electoral College) that actually counts, that's up to you. I chose to consider what counts and that WAS a mandate. -

kimothai replied to Social Media's topic in World News
I'm guessing you don't understand the results of the electoral college. Your own lefty, James Carville was spot on when he characterized the left as "stunningly stupid" (his words, not mine).
