  1. If it's legal and you can't use it inside your own home, what's the point? I repeat. Bunch of Karens.
  2. Bull. So they're gonna ban tobacco too within condos. Both smell.
  3. I was recently told by a cannabis shop owner that dry herb vapes are illegal in Thailand.
  4. Bunch of Karens. People have the right to enjoy the space within their condos. What's next? Criminalizing odorous stir fries?
  5. Let them investigate. It's terrorism if he was motivated by an ideology. If it was just apolitical insane, it wasn't terrorism.
  6. It isn't and it doesn't That wide street is probably Canal Street, adjacent to the French quarter.
  7. Are you the posting police?
  8. But Americans are U.S. tax residents even if they've never set foot in the U.S.
  9. Billionaires, sure but regular people under the delusion that Trump cares about them -- suckers and marks.
  10. As far as the Trump voters, some people voted for the fascism, and some people just voted for fake promises of lower food prices. We're getting the former.
  11. Do you know for a fact that Fidelity accepts Google Voice? Many U.S. financial firms do not.
  12. You're trippin' in the maga bubble, brother. www.forward.com/fast-forward/362855/bannon-said-nazi-influenced-his-world-view/ Bannon Said Nazi Influenced His World View – The Forward Steve Bannon apparently referenced an infamous Italian fascist thinker as influential on his own ideology in a talk he gave at the Vatican three years ago, continuing to raise alarms about the extent of connections between the chief White House strategist and the far-right fringes. Bannon made passing mention in that address to Julius Evola, who actively wrote under Benito Mussolini’s regime and afterward, espousing a philosophy of Traditionalism that presented concepts like equality and progress as false ideals. His work has been taken up in the past decade by leaders of the “alt-right,” with the white nationalist Richard Spencer praising Evola as one of his intellectual fathers. Evola has also been adopted by far-right parties in Europe, including Hungary’s Jobbik and Greece’s Golden Dawn. www.huffpost.com/entry/steve-bannon-camp-of-the-saints-immigration_n_58b75206e4b0284854b3dc03 This Stunningly Racist French Novel Is How Steve Bannon Explains The World | HuffPost Latest News This Stunningly Racist French Novel Is How Steve Bannon Explains The World
  13. Been with Fidelity OVER 45 years. I'm still spoofing them that I'm a U.S. resident although I have heard that they are no longer closing existing international people but there are restrictions such as not being able to buy Mutual Funds but you can still hold them to sell later. But you can buy ETF and stocks.
  14. Yeah, the cost of getting resettled in another country would be much worse than the Thai tax for me. That said, I really think Thailand should consider granting some kind ID to foreign tax resident taxpayers that would be required to be honored everywhere that double pricing is now the game. Not a driver's license. A specific care for that. On the other hand, I suppose that would need to be updated annually so perhaps not so practical.
  15. Thanks. Interesting. So is Fidelity now requiring SOME kind of two factor for all logins?
  16. As with everything, tax impacts are an individual matter. Clearly global taxation could be a live in Thailand deal killer for many expats, but personally (as long as social security income remains excluded) it wouldn't be so bad for me.
  17. How does getting voice verified work exactly with Fidelity? So you call in everytime? Does that involve talking to a human every time or is it an automatic system once you have set it up? I kind of like the idea of voice verification. I have the same issue -- no U.S. mobile to get texts. A question, when you log in to Fidelity from Thailand, do you log in from Thailand or use a U.S. VPN? Maybe that triggered the extra demand? Personally, I have a way to do a real U.S. login without VPN (a device set up for that purpose in the U.S.).
  18. Of course it's Trump and the entire maga fascist movement. Veddy Dark indeed.
  19. As far as remittances to Thailand, correct. As far as economic activity IN Thailand (working, business, rental income, etc.) it's irrelevant if you're a Thai tax resident -- you'd still be subject to Thai tax.
  20. Trump never appealed to me anyway.
