  1. Ha, Ha, not telling and I do not want to get this agent in trouble. Do your own shopping and due diligence.
  2. I agree, just use an agent and forget the 90 day reports and money in the bank. I was quoted two thousand Baht for the agent to put the money in the bank for me. So much easier and cheaper.
  3. I get checked more than a few times per year as I do not trust most Dermatologists. I have had blond hair most of my life and very fair skin. Last November I was diagnosed with Melanoma cancer on my right tricep after a biopsy was performed. Another Dermatologist earlier just froze it and said just to watch it. After the Melanoma diagnosis, I had surgery on the cancer area and I was shocked at the size of the scar, almost three inches. My surgeon told me he had to remove part of my tricep muscle to get down to all the cancer area. So yes, it is a very good idea to see a good Dermatologist regularly.
  4. I would have to agree that waiting until full retirement or pension to move to Thailand drastically reduces ones changes of a better experience and enjoyment. I moved to Thailand at the age of fifty three when I was already retired for five years. Three years later I married a woman over thirty years younger than me. Now in my 70's, I am really slowing down and wish I had retired earlier in life. I would not have as much money now but I would have been able to enjoy Thailand at a younger age when I could fully appreciate it.
  5. I sure do miss the Dutch pancakes.
  6. Stupid is as stupid does. I guess that is why they call it dope. When I was much younger I had a friend who was constantly high on ganja even though he had a very high IQ. One night while high as usual he decided to clean his 12 gauge shotgun in his parents basement. Unfortunately, in his severely degraded mental capacity due to his being stoned, he forgot that there was a shell in the chamber. A while later his parents heard a very loud boom and ran down the basement. He must have been looking down the barrel when it went off as he was decapitated. More than fifty five years later I still morn the loss of this friend. I know this would have never happened if he was in his right mind.
  7. Maybe if you take that mask off you will not be so angry. Breath in, breath out and enjoy life and Thailand, if you indeed do live there. Today I will go to the Bangna Mega Mall for a walk around and around for exercise. On the way I will be able to enjoy the many lovely Thai people out shopping. Then I will be stop for a bite to eat at the many restaurants and continue to observe. Life is good in Thailand.
  8. "Conservative laws?" Such as the near total acceptance of prostitution and the allowance of the indulgence of ganja is conservative? And the almost total lack of enforcement of laws is conservative?
  9. Life is too short to not enjoy a little silliness once in awhile. Bob has a gift of gab and wants to share it on this forum. I appreciate his ability to entertain and consider it refreshing after so much negativity by other posters.
  10. So very true Grumpy, "no enforcement of the rules/laws." And then when someone is sued in court, the judges are corrupt and can be bought. Been there, done that. The Thais just do not care and are used to living in slums and therefore are not interested in maintenance and improving buildings. If I were to ever buy another condo in Thailand, (I never will again) I would buy one where a Western Corporation manages the building, not the lazy, cheap, corrupt Thais.
  11. A very beautiful woman and a very lucky man.
  12. Media = Evil = Democrats
  13. No, not just one, but many, take a look:
  14. I am sure there are many handsome Indian men looking for a "premier global tourist destination."
  15. Oh goody, I just cannot wait. But what about Greta? Is she on board?
