No savings, huge debts: More and more Thai seniors struggling to survive
connda replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
If banks were not predatory they wouldn't extend usurious loans to people who probably can't pay them back. Essentially banks are guaranteeing a life-time of debt slavery for those whose wants exceeds their needs. Consumer beware. -
I had packages that were "out for delivery" today but no joy.

Who Must File the FBAR? A United States person that has a financial interest in or signature authority over foreign financial accounts must file an FBAR if the aggregate value of the foreign financial accounts exceeds $10,000 at any time during the calendar year. That's pretty much any US citizen who is using the 400K or 800K 'in the bank" option for immigration purposes.

Does anyone know if delivery outfits like Kerry take Songkran off. I've checked Lazada shipping and I have a couple of packages that are on the "last mile" of delivery, but I wonder if I'll get them before April 18? Experiences from past holidays?

Planes are "flown" and on the ground they are steered with your feet. Now what do you call that? "Taxiing".

I "ride" motorcycles. "Drive" imho implies a use of a steering wheel as apposed to using body mechanics to steer a bike or motorcycle.

I don't know. But if you had been slugging back pints of brew before you get on your motorcycle and get pulled over, will they arrest you for 'drink driving' or 'drunk driving.' ????

It's that time of year. Make sure to file your FBAR with FinCEN if you have funds in a Thai bank account. From the IRS site: "The FBAR is an annual report, due April 15 following the calendar year reported. You're allowed an automatic extension to October 15 if you fail to meet the FBAR annual due date of April 15. For individuals file here: http://bsaefiling.fincen.treas.gov/NoRegFBARFiler.html

Driving on Thai roads on a motorcycle is an new experience to even most proficient motorcyclists. They expect the roads to conform to their experiences on Western roads. Then they come here to find there are no rules and drivers do the most moronic things on the road. Hence: The Most Dangerous Roads In The World where 80% of the fatalities are: motorcyclists.

Exactly how is "Vote For Us And Receive 10,000 THB in a Digital Wallet" anything but illegal electioneering? Where else in the world can you promise to pay the electorate for their votes if they just make sure your party wins. At 70+ years old I know what democracy looks like and it doesn't look like vote buying in any form.

Ahhhh after three years of pandemic - just let people have fun without "No This!" and "No That!" With that said, Mrs Connda and I have been to Big C and Makro to stock up and made a last run to 7-11 yesterday for snacks and we're hunkering down for the next week at home. Everyone else? Have fun and Happy Songkran!

Wow those are dirt cheap now. -
No. But you can buy 3M filters to place on the A/C filters. The A/C filters only filter out larger dust particles. The 3M filters down to 2.5 PM particles.
