  1. Hilton has a nice buffet
  2. Pictures required: You and your spouse in front of your residence, in front of your mailbox, in your bedroom/kitchen. Mailbox must be clearly legible. No self taken photos. accepted, full body in all frames. All passport pages 1 on each A4 paper. Copies signed and dated.
  3. They have frozen the accounts of many farangs here as reported by AN members. SCB will do same day bank statement and letter BB won't.
  4. Well done and welcome to the jungle, we've got a lot going on
  5. More men have done incredibly stupid things with their cash. Just a paid internship matey.
  6. She wasn't that 'kind' of Indian. The US got did a pretty good job of genocide with the original aboriginal American people. No remorse or reparations.
  7. Thattvapp.to has lots of sports channels and live US TV....
  8. My dog and I go to the post office and get the mail every Saturday. I've brought them candy and fruit and they take care of me fine. I always get taken care of first, wonder why?
  9. Good advice, luckily I never listen to anyone ever, unless it is she who must be obeyed.
  10. Licorice/Peppermint or spearmint tea with lemon, honey optional. Veldent mouth spray deep in the throat. Hydration is key, you are in the age group that doesnt drink enough, but plain water doesnt work. Aloe with water also..
  11. Have had one since 2020, also has local phone support for the first year which was great.Bought direct from Apple.
  12. Very cogent answer. Cooking and baking both take time and are rewarding. Growing weed has time consuming attributes. If you move back to LOS, live near other expats. You could meet similarly bored people for coffee. Living on an island is seldom varied and lonely by yourself. Good luck.
  13. Bangkok banging you say. Sounds like you've made a smooth transition.
  14. No, We need more expensive weapons deployed worldwide by robotic troops taking orders from AI. The 'helicopter $$' they keep throwing out won't last. 20-year environmental reconstruction isn't in the budget projection.
  15. Promise them we'll never cut Medicade and the Hoi poloi don't give a whit because they can smell lies. Caveat Emptor with any such political BS. The billionaires are entitled to the tax breaks and more, thanks to future generations.
  16. The Thai baht is accepted currency here and you will be able to exchange USD into other denominations easily. I have a Charles Schwab International account with free checking and 0 ATM 🏧 fees, accepted everywhere. That way you get to own and trade stocks and keep the money in your account.
  17. This applies to any bank changes for SS direct deposit in countries served by FBU Manila.
  18. Forget about using the My Social Security website. The applicant must have an ID certification from the US Embassy in Bangkok. When completed that must be sent via hard copy to FBU Philippines along with banking info. The ID certification can be done via regular mail.
  19. From your post it seems like there is a systematic review occurring, which is fine to weed out the non-compliant or illegal aliens. We either can bear it, deal with it or get on our horses and go -- totally up to the individual. Thailand seems to have a reasonable idea of where aliens live and IDK what is so wrong. Been here 20 years and no one has asked me anything. Stopped once for speeding and once to show a policeman my bag exiting a bus at Ekammai.
  20. Curious to know what you think of Da Nang and if there is anything different than here. Been 3 times to N and S and found food options very limited outside of sandwiches and soup bowls.
