I'm just a fairly high achiever. Diet and exercise is no exception.

Speaking Thai - is it necessary these days for an expat ?
noobexpat replied to The Cobra's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
A house and car in Korat? what is this, a cliche? No sensible single guy who can't speak thai is doing this silly nonsense on his own 🫢 -

A fair scoop of irony in you (of all people) asking that question! -
You can't. Foreigner needs passport and ATM.

You can port the app but it won't work. You need the banks ATM.

The UK must cancel it's triple lock for OAP
noobexpat replied to TorquayFan's topic in UK & Europe Topics and Events
The under 50 who moves to thailand with £200k in his pocket and 50k baht income/month has to worry about what may arise. Now think of the guy who does not. -

Also a degree in maths, same as every actuary. Do you know what 4^(1/20) signifies? This also ties in with why i won't need the state pension. -

Correct ...and it is already on a glidepath to age 68 for younger folks i believe. -
Means well but mildly retarded as usual.

Been on a Qatar dreamliner in economy. Had these peculiar sliding seats with almost no recline. After that, i never used qatar again, only emirates.

We can't all be like you and get rolled on first in your wheelchair. Your two club feet are a blessing at airports.

Give me examples of you haggling & hustling ?

The ones i used wanted 1.8% Told them i would pay £1,500 upfront whether it sells or not. I will do the viewings. They did the pics and made a walkthrough video, which was really impressive. Sold for full asking price in 4 weeks. That tactic saved quite a few thousand quid. Good luck. -
I got a new phone last week - amoled screen - you can see it in direct sun, looks really great. Fingerprint scanner built into the screen. Latest android. Amazingly cheap. But took 5 hours to setup, so that cost me my monthly rent 🤣

All i see is a 6 pack to die for Enough fun with the forum toy ...i'm off out to play. Adios.

Great when you get to rattle a thai forum spammer. They put the cess in pit. The old limp belly hanging out 555 You have your lies. I have health, wealth and happiness (and lots of lady drink tokens for the gogo's tonight)

Haha rattled. I'm already a £millionaire mate, same as he is. I'm off to walking street in 2 hours. Fat pocket full of cash. Buy you a draft beer for you to sip on?? 😘

After hundreds of posts of dumb topics he got laughed off. About 4 months from start to finish. Not like here, where dross is encouraged. In fact, 39b beer has just been mentioned on there and here he is, spewing his dross. What a life.

Some things will never change - will they ?

You are trying to calculate the volume of a non-linear shape. What branch of calculus will you use? -
You do pay tax on it. Its at 0% rate. It is taxable income, but paid gross. This understanding is above your pay grade. Stay in your lane!
-
Yes ...i do have some sympathy that their systems are not perfect. Nothing ever is. For 90 something % of the people its working.
-
Incorrect, i'm afraid. My 85 year old dads state pension is way above the personal allowance. Just because the maximum now is £x per week ...doesn't mean it was changed retrospectively for anyone else.
-
Not an error because its not a mistake. Like applying an emergency tax code when you start a new job. Incorrect, but not an error.
-
Hmrc can't distinguish who has a frozen state pension and who doesn't. So they simply adjust your tax code by the generic % increase that DWP awarded for that year. Thats the likely theory, unconfirmed.
