  1. The Dunkel and the Weizen got my attention, but there are pretty good imports already here, though they are expensive (Franziskaner and Weihenstephaner).
  2. I would put them in the same category as Budweiser, swill.
  3. Went back to the states last year, visited a local brewery (Treehouse Brewery), I would die for one of their Milk Stouts (Eternity) right now.....11.8% and the taste of Heaven!
  4. Well, like I found when I was hit 3 separate times by Thai drivers, "farang, its his fault!".......though I ultimately ruined their day with 4k dashcams. LOL
  5. What happens when someone else pretends to be you, setups the app on their phone, and you have no idea it ever happened?
  6. Hey Watson, do you eat food to get fat? If you can't drink alcohol without getting drunk, you might wish to visit your local AA.
  7. It probably doesn't matter, we live off my wife's Thai salary already, we are trying to keep from sending money if it's not needed....but I just want to cover anything big, like a new car, or another condo purchase (the wife likes buying multiple condos and renting them).
  8. Historical to me is when I arrived in 2016 at 36 baht, it hovered around 34-36 for a while, then there was the 29 baht which was really bad.
  9. Believe me, I've noticed, I sent some last time it hit 37.21 ....but now I wish I sent more.
  10. I could use one more bump close to 38 baht to the USD before that point, I may send one more chunk to last me until late 2025, so I can make decisions on the future after the dust settles.
  11. Singha and Chang both taste horrible, I've come to the conclusion that Thai's drink to get drunk, not because they like the taste of beer.
  12. Rules and Laws mean nothing here, did you just arrive in-country?
  13. "Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, but expecting different results."
  14. I guess there will be less condos, houses, cars, and Rolex's bought.....that should help the economy! ;-)
  15. Ok, so large savings in US banks, if slowly transferred to a Thai bank.....is that taxable? For that matter, is all money being sent to Thailand considered taxable until its not?
  16. So, you would ONLY have 2,750,000 baht per year left to survive on? But yes, I agree tax sucks.
  17. Gawd I feel poor, I would be gone and back in the US right now with those numbers, but I agree with the last part of your statement.
  18. If I had $4 million per year I wouldn't even be in Thailand, this would be the last place on Earth I would want to live.
  19. If this is true, or holds after several appeals, they will have to build more jails to hold all the corrupt RTP.
  20. Malaysia is a predominantly Muslim country, birds of a feather flock together.
  21. Yes, nepotism suits his skill level best, that or shoeshine boy.
  22. They really had to dig to the bottom of the barrel to find the nitwits they have in charge. Typical Thai Government Announcement: "Ready, Aim, Fire!"
  23. I remember when I first moved here in 2016, there were many investigative articles where the supposedly "Organic farm goods" at markets and stores were laced with chemicals. I would take their label of "Organic Farming" with a grain of salt.
