I have yet to see a genuinely good-looking, youngish, self-made woman in Thailand who has a pile of her own money and assets. Anytime you hear some geezer on here boasting on about how his wife is so rich, doesn’t need his money, and is with him purely for other reasons, you can bet it’s either complete rubbish or she’s a fat old maid that nobody would want to plonk anyway. There are only two kinds of women in Thailand. Hot and poor or fat and rich. You lot all know it, so let’s not fool ourselves. Now take your pick. Which kind is yours?

Bob, I rent my wives on an hourly basis, yes, that's wives, plural. I usually visit with them about 6–8 times per month, spread across multiple women, and spend no more than ฿15,000 in total each month, sometimes less, on the whole shebang. It's all about just focusing on a single part of my anatomy. No grief, no stress, no “I’ve got a headache,” no emotional breakdowns or mood swings to deal with. No dinner dates, no weekend trips, no strolling through shopping malls. Don't need any of that tosh. So I have complete control over all of my own free time. Plus, the women are usually half my age, never fat, entirely all by my choosing of course. I could go on, but you get the point, let’s just say I’ve got it made. Your fat old wife who doesn't want to get off the couch, can't beat my setup cuz. 🤣

In general, I believe foreign retirees are a positive presence in Thailand, more so than tourists. Retirees typically stay in Thailand nearly full-time, consistently spending money, including at private hospitals over time. From what I’ve seen, most of them don’t cause any trouble either. They tend to make an effort to assimilate into the culture and get along well with locals. On the other hand, I think it’s the short-term visitors, those who don’t grasp the nuances of the culture, that tend to create more problems for the local community.

Hopefully my presence has been a positive thing. I've put a lot of money into the local economy over the years, I don't cause anyone any trouble and I've helped a few of the locals extensively in many ways. I've also got a lot out the place myself in positive ways. So hopefully it's been a win-win on both sides.

From what I understand, most of them were living in Omni Tower, and many were also using it as a base of short-time operations. The majority of long-term residents, or rather, those renting month-to-month in that building, seem to be Arabs. However, I believe many of the sex worker women there have been forced to move out recently due to issues with the police. That said, the main building being used for short-time tricks appears to be Nana Condo. You can check it out on Google Maps. At night, dozens of Africans, ladyboys, and Vietnamese women line up along Soi Nana, just meters from that building. Thus, a lot of them take their customers there. I’d be surprised if any building at the far end of Soi Nana were popular for short-times. It’s too far, and I doubt many of their customers would be willing to walk that distance. Besides the Nana Condo, there are also several small short-time hotels within meters of that area where the women are all standing around and hooking customers. So there’s really no need for anyone to trek to the end of the Soi for a short-time room.

It is mainly Omni Tower. Daily fights. Daily incidents involving police. Daily immigration police raids. Not just Africans. The article doesn't mention it, but lots of Uzbeks are in there too, but they aren't as troublesome.

Which Sukhumvit Soi are you referring to?

It is very likely the subject condo building is Omni Tower. And a second one called Nana Condo.

You do the math...

Thank you for all the replies. Very helpful. I'm 158cm tall and weigh about 60 kilos, so I'm not so big, but in other areas I'm very gifted, like a horse! Still wondering about what to do given my situation. Oh, well.

Do people think that size really matters a lot in Thailand? I’m just curious, because I’m not so big.

What's that sitting on top of your ride mate? Looks like a huge durian got into a fight with a cannabis bud and lost. 😂

Simple Minds. African Skies.

Your welcome. I called their toll free number earlier today, before I posted that info, and they were the ones who told me that I could buy a SIM on eBay, have it shipped overseas, and activate it by calling them once I receive it. At first, the guy said I would need to insert the SIM into a phone to activate it before they could convert it to an eSIM. Then he corrected himself and said that if I didn’t want to do that, activation could be done through email once I had the SIM card in hand. I'm assuming that if you don't even want an eSIM that maybe you could just put the SIM in a phone and activate it that way. He didn't mention anything to me about not being able to activate it from overseas. But I don’t have any personal experience with this issue or this company, and I don’t plan to buy one of their SIMs as I am already satisfied with Numero. But if you want to call them and ask questions, here’s the number: +1-888-777-0446
