  1. Even if you were single and with zero decutibles your tax amount would be 2500 Baht a year. Here is the tax calculator : https://www.uobam.co.th/en/tax-calculation Note that if you're married then it goes down to zero. As to your original question about WISE, it won't matter where the money comes from if you keep it under the threshold. However if you start sending much larger amounts then you will cross that threshold and with a little planning between 2 people I suspect you can stretch that out a bit more.
  2. I read that somewhere else as well and the first thing that came to mind is that they've rolled it (the proposed rule change) back a year. They have, haven't they?
  3. 14 million in salary alone never mind the investment income and likely zero personal expenses as PM. He must have been spending a lot to keep it so low.
  4. I find that highly unlikely, they may talk about it but it's never going to happen.
  5. From a simple cracking neack as it moves or was it a chiropractic manipulation? I've seen some of those manipulations and they can be very dangerous leading to injury like you say. Sometimes my neck cracks a little when I move it around, tiny amounts - this is not the same as having a chiropractor swing your entire body around by the neck nearly removing your head and resulting in a massive crack.
  6. Well it seemed very slow last week, pretty sure I clicked a link that took about 7 days to come up
  7. Ok, I'm sure there's a point there but I definitely missed it. I don't care if 'they' know I have some Bitcoin or not. Why would I?
  8. It's hatred, pure hate - that's the reason.
  9. Yeah, that's never going to happen, good luck with the vote on that law change. It is 'nice' of them to let everyone off the hook for anything prior to Jan 1, 2024 which is the way I read it. I guess they don't want to do 10 years of paperwork processing for what will likely be very little return.
  10. Some people believe the craziest things
  11. I believe this is an MPs only vote, going to be interesting to see how many of the coalition partners follow their new master.
  12. I've got a feeling the overweight ones don't do 400km a week.....
  13. I was more interested in your athleticism, do you train extensively to maintain an athletic physique? Because if you do then your high energy diet is going to be perfect for you
  14. Why are you atheletic? Most of us are not athletes.
  15. It's carbohydrates in all their forms, too many carbs of all kinds - and everything they eat here is overloaded with carbs - for example - rice and noodles - pure carbs. Carbs of course are just another form of sugar once they get digested. Eating rice is almost as effective as drinking liquid glucose which is the highest form of concentrated carbohydrate (read sugar) of them all. So anything high in starch (rice, potato, noodles, etc) and of course sugar itself are all carbohydrates and when combined together as they often are = this is the issue.
  16. Interesting, I had read about this new passport verification procedure and mentioned it in another thread - I guess as they are a foreign owned exchange they've been ordered by their foreign owners to accept foreigners as customers, unlike the Thai exchange which will now surely lose all of the foreign customers. One question - do you need to verify your address by uploading a bank statement or anything like that, I do use Kasikorn bank? I ask because for me this means going down to the bank and getting a printed statement, my address is still in the English language and I would hope they accept that - all the foreign exchanges did of course which is why I got them to alter the address from Thai into English and I don't want to have to change it back as most of the business I do is outside Thailand.
  17. They should have given this guy a medal, not sent him to prison.
  18. I hope the vote fails and the fallout from that breaks the coalition resulting in turmoil and a new PM.
  19. I read that they're going to fund it with a loan from the Government Savings Bank.
  20. They've been here, there and everywhere for a very long time. The only thing new is that they're operating in the open now.
