  1. Ford. The blue collar favorite.
  2. K-bank app allows you to set the daily limit right in the app without any intervention at an actual branch. Used it a couple of weeks ago and transferred 650k in one transaction, no problem at all. After the transfer I set it back to 50k limit. Not sure about BKK bank. I quit them a while back. And I find k-bank much better than BKK bank.
  3. Make a will here. Make your gf the executor. Make your gf the only beneficiary. Problem solved. Make sure you trust the gf!
  4. Thanks all. I'll pick up something on lazada or shopee.
  5. It can be very expensive to get all those extra amps needed to charge 1 car, let alone many in the same condo at the same time. No condo association should even consider it. You want to drive an EV, make sure you have somewhere to plug it in before you buy one.
  6. I need a couple of network cables around 10 meters long, whatever the latest spec is, cat5 cat6, etc. Anywhere in Pattaya that can do this? Thanks
  7. Only bring what you need when you need it, with a bit of a cushion of course. When you kick off it's much easier to control where the money goes in your home country than in Thailand.
  8. Yes, that Vietnamese civet coffee is wonderful.
  9. That would be what, 1.14 gazillion dollars? $114,000,000,000,000. Even Musk doesn't have that much coin.
  10. Alberta is to Canada what West Virginia (or Tennessee or Kansas or ...) Is to the United States. INBRED all the way.
  11. Here's an older thread on this: And another, although lots of peanut gallery nonsense here:
  12. Hell, why go all the way to Russia? They could have moved to Alberta and accomplished the same thing. Last time I was in Alberta it was pretty much the same as any of the INBRED states like NC, Tennessee, etc.
  13. Probably a cm ruler anyway, not inches.
  14. Thanks. I'll give them a try. I had problems with alldaychemist(s?) last year. Talked my way out of it but not something I'd like to do again.
  15. What does she label the contents of the shipment? Any meds I've had shipped in that are marked as meds are grabbed and you have to present an import license or some pre-approval documents.
  16. Big-C extra has lots of breads like you mention. I like the low GI loaves. The tops in the basement of Central also has a good selection. Some is time dependant. The multi-grain I like there shows up around lunchtime.
  17. The gold standard for blood thinners is Eliquis(apixaban). Very little bleed risk compared to warfarin. There was a thread recently and I believe @Sheryl posted the generics available in Thailand. Mail order would be the best source for price regardless of where you live in Thailand. Sources in the same thread.
  18. There was a takeover. You expect rates to go down after that? 555
  19. No. I only showed the business card from the Bumrungrad surgeon, Dr Koonlawee Nademanee and said he told me get an EKG. After I had done the EKG(and had received the results) they had me check in at a desk where they inquired if I wanted to see a doctor. I of course declined the offer.
  20. Just did the EKG at Bang Lamung hospital, Pattaya. All in 650bt. I'm a new patient there so no idea how that breaks down into registration cost, id card cost, and EKG cost. From driving up to triage and leaving with the EKG took a bit under 90 minutes. Quite a smooth operational.
  21. And further, if you are able to ask......... then you need to consume more!
  22. Add another item to the list of f-ups the Republican have done or are doing that will cost them the next election. 1. Abortion 2. Failure to pass bipartisan immigration bill 3. Failure to fund Ukraine, Israel, Taiwan Keep it up boys. Give away a big majority. See statehood for Puerto Rico and DC. 15 supreme court justices. Etc. Keep it up, please.
  23. This is news to me. I spoke with SI directly and we discussed moving existing mutual funds from Vanguard to my new SI account where they would remain in the same fund. My big concern was avoiding the tax hit of liquidating a mutual fund with a substantial amount of taxable income. I was told no problem. There is definitely a restriction on brokerage accounts not being available to exist if you have a foreign address. Vanguard closed mine years ago due to this.
