Delta Shift

It's getting better by the minute with this guy ! US decadence gaining momentum fast 😄 <deleted> it's just too retarded to not be priceless...

Too late for that I'm afraid :D Danang is already super popular among smart westerners. I go there every 2-3 months and it's getting busier and busier. But fear not. There is still massive room for growth and I don't think prices are gonna up substantially anytime soon. I already have my eyes set on Myanmar. When the war is over (could be soon from what I've read) and before things get back to normal it's gonna one hell of a destination ! That country seems to be pretty clean compared to dirty Thailand and Vietnam. Anyways... I'm rambling...

Revolut is deffo a good choice for card payments. Based on my research it is actually the best option out there as long as you don't withdraw with it. Just remember it's a DC and not a CC. This type of authorization-required card might be a problem for things like renting a car ( I think you need a proper CC for that). Revolut is a good choice but you might wanna look for something else when it comes to withdrawals. Revolut gets pretty expensive on large withdrawals.

To get a physical Wise card, you'll need a proxy in the UK able to send you the card upon reception. However you could just go for the Wise virtual cards for online payments and wallets. Revolut does send cards worldwide and offers virtual cards as well.

Absolutely. Danang is even better than Nha Trang imo.

And how old are the girls you're trying to connect with ? Most younger women in prosperous urban areas don't care about older guys anymore. It used to be the case but less and less so. Most older dudes in Pattaya are dating the bottom of the trash can most of the time. The only places one can still find older farangs with good-looking young Thai women are in lesser known towns. For example, I was surprised at the number of old guys (more than 50 for sure) with young and rather good-looking Thai girls in Cha-am. I think the reason for that might be the way the economy is developing. Not only in Thailand but almost everywhere really. A shrinking number of cities is getting an increasingly larger share of the pie. Girls is Pattaya probably enjoy a degree of abundance that allow them to be picky. In ghost town Cha-am, not so much so many of the younger girls don't seem to have much of a problem getting involved with a 50, 60 or even 70 yo farang with a bit of money to secure them. Anyways. Good hunting :)

Absolutely

Best of luck to you and your friend

What are you talking about, sport ?

You better get use to it, bro. It's only gonna get worse as more and more lonely old farts relocate to Thailand for retirement. There is something deeply wrong with the system we live in imo....

I don't care, bro... I really don't.

Never gonna work. No credible commitment to the rule of law, pretty average infrastructure, massive pollution problem... Rich people tend to be pretty smart. My money is on them not coming to live in Thailand anytime soon. LoS can be happy if it gets low/middle income retirees and young digital drifters. The mongers era is pretty much over imo.

If Chinese law enforcement really gets involved in this, criminals are in for a big surprise. They ain't the Thai Royal police style. Far from it.

Don't get involved in a conversation between two members, especially if it's an argument. You probably wouldn't like others to do it so don't do it. Pretty simple. As for judging my views on a given topic, no problem. Go ahead and let me know if you don't share my views on Wise and Revolut.

No explosion here, my friend. I said what I had to say candidly. He did the same. Period. As for you maybe you should mind your own business ?
