Money pours in for Brit and Thai wife and child down on their luck in Buriram

Thanx!

 

That was my plan, maybe I wrote it easy to misunderstand.

This is the reason to go with his son

The wife can stay until Home Office finds out. No mercy because he is ill. They have shown this attitude in a number of cases lately where people got deported after years  working in Britain. No doubt he will decide what he wants to do. He doesn't have funds for 3 airfares which will cancel this idea unless a generous soul will come out of the woodwork.

BTW, all those who condemn this man and tell him to go to U.K. don't seem to realize that in U.K. the tax payer funds such cases. Aren't many of the sneering contributors here British tax payers?

    yada, yada, if you do't want to help then just shut up about it... of course you want to do a bit of virtue signalling though.   Some people get down on their luck because of different circu

More responsible to only have kids if you're in a stable, loving relationship.

Maybe "he"  was  but his Wife  thought otherwise.

Why worry if other people want to give him money, up to them, you just sound mean.

Yeah. I am mean, when it comes to western men who don't prepare themselves.

Someone working who doesnt get paid for FIVE MONTHS !!!!

Please, alarm bells would or should be ringing after a month.

No sympathy for this bloke.

The wife and child, yes, i feel for them. Because they have this bloated oxygen thief kickin back waiting for the bleeding hearts of this world to provide him with free money.

Work and prepare yourself like the rest of us . Pretty simple really....

Personally.......... I feel my money's worth if I give to somebody Thai in Issan like the girl 22 years old, a nurse, who was stopped at a red light and some lady driving a car  (probably texting) hit her (at almost full speed) from Behind as she sat at that red light and sent her flying 30 meters, she survived and is going to live a questionable future...... I'd give to her.... But not to this guy (Maybe the wife and child he leaves).....

Most of the world views children as an asset to work cheap and provide for them in their old age.

Your world view is very recent (last 100 years), and only used by white men.

 

I would consider your world view to be the one in error (providing free stuff for other people), as it has brought about feminism, the death of the white man in his own country and the imminent destruction of the western world.

That's a sad  world for  sure

Send what you can afford.

 

Do not worry about if is a scam or not.

 

 

Give blindly to the lad who could not manage his life.

 

Good goal.

 

 

Very good joke. You don't think honestly money will help manage his life???

A stable, loving relationship involves 2 people.

Oh dear, the hard men have arrived.

 

Let's beat up this guy without having a clue about his circumstances.

 

I have a friend,  90 years old, 7 years overstayed. Husband died and his kids took everything. She's had a home here for 50 years. 

Do you want her address so you can go also her around hard guy?

Dont come on social media and beg for others to cover your shortfalls and shitness.

If you breed, be prepared to take responsibility, support and make sure for tough times.

This grub is nothing but a grub who is now begging and can't even dump and wipe his soot pipe.

You too, can flick this bloke a lazy 30,000 baht.

Cheers

I saw the Vid of that accident, I thought she was dead at the scene, I was happy to find out she'd survived, I hope to find out more about her condition and recovery prospects. Agree, I'd help any fund that was raising cash for her.

She didn't and neither did this guy.

Some people like to help others, some like to slag them off, to make their own miserable existence seem better.

Yes....... The latest a few days ago showed her sitting up in a hospital bed holding up her hand in an 'OK' gesture....... How her future will go is a guess but she is out of the 'critical' condition............

I certainly prefer to give to a 'Poor' 'Innocent' victim than to a 30 year 'loafer' like this guy in this post.............

If you had no sight in a better future, would you stay in the same situation?

or

Go and find help in your own country and get your life back on track rather then begging for funds!

I know what i would do.

He didn't go out to beg. Take time to read the background or just move on and keep your money.

So in UK they separate a mother from her 5 YO son, despite she arrived on legal dokuments? Somehow I have hard to believe that, but very interesting. You don't have to prove it for me, as I'm not that interested in the "case".

 

BTW, it is 2 tickets initially (one way). Mom/wife have to stay until visa is done.

 

I'm pretty sure that he would not get much help if arriving alone, but everything changes with his son.

As I stated b4, if this bloke was alone, I wouldn't care less.

I am astounded at how means minded so many posters are. None of you have any idea of this mans circumstances. What happened to him in his life what brought him to Thailand nobody knows. Even if his problems are the result of bad choices he made does that mean he does not deserve any sympathy?

"maybe" he was in a  relationship like that and then his Wife decided otherwise, people change, especially with age. Many people divorce after the kids have grown up also, want different things in life, personally all my ex  girlfriends over the years, I'm glad I didn't stick with any of them.

Didn't marry until early 40's and I certainly  think differently now  than those previous 40+years.

Not necessarily, and, using real exchange rates, £600 is only B26k. 

 

The basic state pension is a maximum of £122 per week, £488 every 4 weeks, but depends on NI contributions that have been made.   If there have been no contributions then there is no pension entitlement.  If he's been here for so long it would not be unlikely that he had not kept up those contributions

Total nonsense, why dont you hold your silly noise

Full Basic UK state pension is approx 160 quid

And you'd be right - married 2010, son born 2012, divorced 2017.

He didn't beg nor did he go on social media.

A Thai movie star did it.  ( try reading the thread  )

 

So I guess that will be at least two trees you will be cutting down. Make that three because you will be wanting to cut my tree down I suppose. In fact, if you are planning on  major deforesting  you had best get yourself a chainsaw since you are going to be needing one.

"Oh, my company hasn't paid me for 2 months now, i have a wife and child....oh well, nothing is wrong, but my money is getting low...."

"Oh now it has been 4 months since i have been paid....things are getting a bit tight...."

5 months = " I'll just lay down here like a bloated whale, shit myself and get my wife to deal with that, while people in social media land give me their hard earned money because they feel sorry for my wife and child"

Show me your tree, i will gladly hack it down for you

Sorry. I get a bit frustrated with the current trend of "go-fund-me" types of situations.

Be responsible and sensible enough, to see a bad moon rising, especially after 5 months, and do a bit better than this waste of space

surely he has a UK state pension of some sort and no harm to him but his health issues look like he has stuffed himself over the years into a slug state, does he smoke drink ?

 

Pretty sad state of affairs that only he has responsibility for

I believe he would need an income of around £18,000 a year to apply for his wife's settlement, plus more if a child is going as well.

Sent from my SM-G920F using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app
 

 

he could soon get that with all the benefits they stupidly give away and , housing , disabled , and state pension or working at a desk 25,000 a year

Your life can change in a moment and all that money you saved can be eaten up in medical bills and travel expenses quite quickly.  Some human compassion might not hurt- It costs nothing.
