  1. An acceptable copy is one made by the US Embassy or Consulate at a cost of $50. Easy to do if you are close to Bangkok or Chiang Mai. The other option is to apply for an ITIN with an IRS Acceptance Agent. There are five agents listed for Thailand. Four in Bangkok and one in Samut Sakhon. No idea what the cost would be. Acceptance Agents - Thailand
  2. I just completed this quiz. My Score 70/100 My Time 137 seconds  
  3. If your only assets are brokerage accounts they may be Payable on Death (POD), or Transfer on Death (TOD) accounts and you just designate the beneficiary(s). POD and TOD accounts do not have to go through probate and you may not need a USA will at all. My Fidelity brokerage account and my Credit Union account are both POD accounts but I still needed a will for my other assets. Lots of info available online. Here is just one example. https://www.lawjur.com/do-transfer-on-death-accounts-mean-i-dont-need-an-estate-plan/

  5. They are usually referred to as "Safes". Home pro, Big C, Lazada etc. has them. You should mention a size. Were you're numbers feet, or meters, or mm, or cm, or parsecs ?
  6. And also the fact that Space X makes a few dollars from NASA as a government contractor.
  7. The quote is from YOUR link: "he was awarded the Bronze Star Medal with Valor Device," "V" Device, Combat "V", Valor Device. Different terms for the same thing.
  8. This is YOUR post and YOUR link. This is where the quote is from.
  9. The quote is from YOUR link
  10. This is from the link you posted which you apparently didn't even read: "During his time in Iraq, he was awarded the Bronze Star Medal with Valor Device, Combat Infantryman Badge, and a second Army Commendation Medal"
  11. The link you posted proves you wrong. Hanaguma was wrong about being awarded two Bronze Stars though. He was only awarded one. Because it was awarded with the Combat "V" that is pretty good evidence. He also was awarded the Combat Infantry Badge which is awarded for Performing duties while personally present and under fire while serving in an assigned infantry, ranger or special forces capacity, in a unit of brigade, regimental, or smaller size, engaged in active ground combat
  12. That is exactly the type of BS I dislike. The House majority being won by the Republicans is almost a sure thing. But posting fake videos does not help.
  13. I think the thread title will soon be correct but the link in the OP is just a local Kansas City TV Station website. It is not Fox, Or CNN, or AP or any National source. It will be official soon, but it isn't yet.
  14. Yes they Do. They just don't care. Mainly only a concern for state taxation.
  15. This thread was started by someone who is obsessed with making sure everyone he meets knows he is a woke fascist leftie cult member and not a normal American.
  16. Biden is the 45th person to serve as president, not the 46th. When Trump takes office he will also be the 45th person to serve as president. Here's a clue: 22 and 24 I know what you mean. This is just some interesting trivia that many people don't know.
  17. I just completed this quiz. My Score 40/100 My Time 136 seconds  
  18. Customs form had fairly accurate list of contents and the Metformin was described as "Supplements"
  19. Yes. I have had meds sent for years by mail with no issues but but if they catch it it is a PITA.
  20. About two months ago I had a package with a few clothing items and also a couple bottles of Metformin. I had to go to the customs office in Laem Chabang and open the package for inspection. Customs form had fairly accurate list of contents and the Metformin was described as "Supplements". No medications or supplements can legally be mailed to Thailand without a import license. They didn't just confiscate the contraband item. The entire package was confiscated. The lady I dealt with actually offered to wait to finalize their actions if I wanted to go get an import license. She even told me the office I would need to go to wasn't very far away. I didn't bother since I figured that it probably would be a waste of time. There was no issue with any fines, just lost the package. They said it would be returned to sender.
  21. TTB is the short name for TMBThanachart Bank which was the merger of Thai Military Bank (TMB) and Thanachart Bank.
  22. I just completed this quiz. My Score 60/100 My Time 78 seconds  
  23. Nam's Taxi Service advertises that they will do Bangkok to Koh Chang for 4500 Baht. Plus 80 Baht per person for the ferry. https://www.namstaxiladydrivers.com/services
  24. No they were not. More BS like most of you posts.
  25. How about using the stuff you take to get ready for a colonoscopy the next day? Called Colon-Prep or something like that. Would using that for a complete flush out say every 3-4 months, or every 6 months, be beneficial? I remember reading a post a long time ago that said colonics, which I believe is just a very thorough enema, can actually mess up your gut bacteria and kill off the good bacteria you need. I suppose using Colon-Prep would be like a colonic on steroids.
