This would become true once they remove the LTR visa.

Just another dinosaur with a telephone pole up his arse.

Witty answer of the year IMHO.

Let him vent, ageism is the only ism left. But aren't we glad we are Boomers, I would want to get old in 10 years..

Guest they meant "Thai pervert", which is probably a pleomasm.

Great, gonna get down even more once TRD starts extorting me.

Yeah, but the original said also something like "my fellow Americans".

In Portugal a retiree pays only 10%

Used to be a great airline with sex flight attendants. Gone the way of Thailand in the last 30 years. Mostly overweight gogo dancers in the bars..

All, or none. And anything in between, such as the 17% flat tax.

Definitely not AFAIAC. Anyone thinking of retiring in Thailand now would have to be brain dead.

You know that's plain wrong, any income remitted the year of earning has always been taxable. For instance anyone who got his pension transferred directly has always been liable to pay IT on that income. For that reason I have always "seasoned" my pension and continue to do so as RD 743 in ambiguous in that regard.

Looks like your earnings are below 1 Million.

I worked hard for my pension.. Paid 23.7% of my earnings for all my working life. Wish you the best for your old years AH.

Unless they keep the LTR tax exemption.

Tasmania is this place AFAIAC. NZ South Island could probably qualify as well but I have never been there. I have also fond memories of Dorrigo and Bellingen.

This leaves us with the less than 180 days a year residences. I encourage everyone to consider it. We don't want to pay into a deeply corrupt system.

Anyone still using that?

Not allowed on AN. But you can find it in less than a second.

This was first published by the same newspaper early June. As I don't know how resilient RD 743 will be to this change, when this comes into effect, I have been cutting expenditure at the level of my tax exposure of 22%. Been looking also at the possibility of staying out of country 186 days a year. Right know we should all advertise that we have the means to make such a change ineffective as we either won't spend our money in this excrement hole and/or spend their expected tax revenue elsewhere by becoming pleasantly nomadic. I can see myself 3 months in Malaysia and another in Vietnam.

Can remember being at work completely stalled in around 10:30 or 11. A 12:15 visit to one of the many Hungarian girls operating in Geneva with a [often anal] massive release was enough to get me flying again at 2pm. Always worked. BTW, I have ADD. Now people use Ritalin, so sad.

So that the they can kill someone else.

Yes, AN Slob Land doesn't like a fit senior. They hate the idea that he still can run and probably enjoys a great boom boom every other day. US vet pensions probably allow him that too. Good on you Bro.

As in "sleeping"?

Or pretending to be. Pretty sure that these days some people pretend to be poofs to gets jobs.
