  1. I'm chancing myself between 65-80. Anyone know if that might be good enough? The home ownership thing... I'll never own expensive condo here / low grm here. That's kinda doomed me.
  2. Because it's not the requirement of the job? Perhaps when speaking Thai students are (generally) not learning English in that process? Because Thai grammar teachers are a thing? Perhaps speaking Thai in the environment would mean more work, meetings without compensation. Dunno...
  3. Precisely And to be clear it is a rare moment I bump into another foreigner (including the half dozen workplaces) that another farang speaks better Thai but whatever. Thx
  4. No. Teaching English in dead central Bangkok. Imagine if I'd lived in Nakon Nowhere I'd be teaching that instead. *I can go anywhere, do anything. Many foreigners would and have thought I'm fluent but I'm not conversational. Thai is a language of 75M users. It is not used outside Thailand. There is no financial benefit by learning Thai. Thailand does not give PR let alone citizenship for all intents and purposes. The real question, even married is why one would bother? This is especially considering the difficult tonal nature of the language. Lemme guess...you have a pink card as well with no purpose other than ID What contribution was made by your post? Nothing. Right. Please spare me further contributions.
  5. Male. Myself. How fluent is fluent? Hold a conversation or a certain academic level? Is the test an arbitrary panel or standardized exam ? *Thanks Jack. I'm just looking to get a gist.
  6. Does anyone have the lastest information, assessment of trying to obtain Thai citizenship? Associated costs? Estimated time? Lawyer mandatory? *Married *Have made large and genuine contribution to Thai society *Will obtain basic verbal skills * Job 10 years over 40k, taxes
  7. So happy he's recovering well ❤️‍🩹 ❤️‍🩹 😜
  8. This is stupid and demonstrates nothing. Needs at minimum to be ratio / percent of population. Of course China will have more than Thailand it's 1B vs 70M
  9. I'm really jonesin' for a proper bowl of clear broth Pho with steak and or brisket? Anyone?
  10. Haha...oh, the days. Cambodian runners from Pattaya.
  11. I've had 11 loaded since about six months after launch. I've had no serious issues whatsoever. One time I had to do a rollback and every install I had the same issue. After about a month it resolved / fixed bug. Got mine tweaked out, very personalized. I also have 12 GB ram which is sufficient for what I do. But I've also got the system very leaned out. No issues. Maybe funky search Microsoft has screwed up search for I don't know how many iterations. The question is do you have tpm2 and can you run the version?
  12. Not to hijack the thread but what's the problem?
  13. I'd thought about this. It seems easiest option TBH. I'm thinking with the Thai taxation issues... when incoming funds are marked as government pension it will obviously be taxed in States (in vast majority of our cases). Other than having to explain to large lump sums that are the equivalent of the monthly payments.
  14. Thank you all. Manila: Does anyone have a fax number? They'd once asked me for a lot of confidential information via email. I thought this a bit sketchy. Comments please.
  15. Thai Air What a wonderful airline 25-30 years ago
  16. SSD is small 2nd SSD there? It's blank. There should be two these days. No mention of graphics card Ryzen CPU I'm all about Asus myself.
  17. Could you provide me with a bit more detail on this option please? How are the funds transfered (abroad). Cost? Issues?
  18. Lol. What an outright lie. Roaring! Enter Biden online cheerleading, disinformation squad stage left. Legal immigration isn't any higher than years past that I'm aware of. No DCF anymore...we wait 18-24 mos. Roaring... another laff https://mishtalk.com/economics/2024-q1-gdp-underperforms-expectations-at-1-6-percent-vs-2-3-percent-expected/
  19. Hi Bangkok Bank direct deposit via BBL NYC Do I need to set up a special bank account to have social security deposits or can I use one I currently have? Thanks
  20. Somehow I doubt Chonburi beaches were 44 degrees 🙄
