People are far to glib at ignoring the mental health issues that may result from the stress and anxiety that may have built up in the poor sod. Just hope you don't get yourself in some like type situation and have some schmuck throwing insults at you. Maybe he told People at home he had a marvelos life in Thailand With this wonderful GIRL and that every thing was fantastic here. Hard to og back then when People would smile funny at you and say "told you so" and "you should have......." he just wanted a good life after a Lifetime of hard work. Hope he is in a NICE Place now. REST IN PEACE "What do we now" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a question of finding the right ladies, that does not happen (often) while your on a holiday as you have not enough time to know the person and your in holiday setting. Plus a bar girl.. come on that is just stupid. There are probably good bar girls but they are outnumbered by the bad ones. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Jip99 Posted May 4, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted May 4, 2018 A very sad situation and I am one who finds it difficult to imagine suicide as the best option available - I accept all the comments about the ability to think rationally etc, but I just hope I never find myself in that desperate position. Every poster on Thai Visa has a story and the deceased in this case is no different. The reporting (and many thread posts) don’t help us to see the real individual. The deceased was John Edward Charles Toms who is said to have first visited Thailand in June 2012. John was born in February 1950 so he had 62 years of a life in his home country before landing on these shores. What do we know of his life - had he been married, had family etc back home. Reportage suggests that he was a “British businessman” and “retired from British Steel”. He had a pension of £1,163 p.m., was a father of one, his wife (whom he was divorcing) was 55. He became engaged to Thanyaporn in July 2012 and bought her a 36k motorbike in August 2012. They married sometime later (I have not seen when) although I fail to see they can “have a teenage daughter together”. John met Naritha (the girlfriend aged 49) in March 2017 and he left his wife in November 2017. She switched to a younger Dane and now lives in Denmark. I am just trying to assimilate the facts because I want to avoid the easy mistake of judging, or jumping to conclusions, based on news report/TV posts. John would have have been in receipt of a UK State pension which probably accounted for half of what he received - the remainder being a British Steel occupational pension. This pension supplemented from teaching in Thailand. “British Businessman” - this may be based on the LLP business that was registered in April 2015 and dissolved in October 2016. Mrs Thanyaporn Toms was also a director of Sawsadee-Thai-Fashion-Jewelry whose registered office was in Tonypandy. This address is shared by Foundry Construction Limited, the director being Dilwyn Lewis. John is said to have ‘burned’ £100,000 savings and was £50,000 in debt. that equates to £25,000 p.a. plus pension/income from teaching. My interest in trying to establish a few more facts is to get past the sensationalism and judgementalism of the headlines etc. Here is a guy who saw no option but to take his own life. That is sad and should be avoidable. Surely there were some family and friends from those first 62 years (someone Bank-rolled the £50k). Surely there were friends from the last 6 years. As often, there are more questions than answers in this case - perhaps they should remain unanswered. R. I. P. 3 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it is pertinent to challenge this because it isn't logical. Not sure where alpha male and attention seeking come into it. We need to challenge this alpha male thing because that's what killed the guy in the OP. He saw himself as the provider to a whore and then killed himself when he could no longer provide. This should have been nipped in the bud at the outset but it wasn't and that's partly because of people like you who whinge on about respect and other such intangible nonsense, instead of talking frankly and openly. Captain Saveaho, is white knight syndrome not alpha behaviour. Most of them decided on this line of work because they are lazy/like sex/party/booze/drugs. As for the suicide, 68 ain't a bad age, I'd be happy with another 6 years too. Many of my pals have died well before that age.

I have pondered this over the years - and, yes, I have the Captain Saveaho T shirt....... From my very first day in Thailand I had this overwhelming desire to improve the lives of the poor young wenches, who had been driven into a life of serving the needs of aging western gentlemen. I believed, and still do, that every 1,000 Baht expended is doing some good and provides me with a warm, charitable feeling. A generous 10% tip on top - and another 100 Baht for the girl’s bastard child - just adds to that sense of ‘doing good’. It is therefore natural that that we then progress to adopting one of our choosing (some Expats go as far as marrying). Saving them from their former life of servitude is often recognized with a reciprocation of warmth and caring - sometimes with loyalty and gratitude. Occasionaly, there will be a ‘bad un’ that does not come up to scratch and repays your generosity with greed and loathing - these need to be weeded out at an early stage and replaced with one who can conform. As long as that cycle can continue there should never be a need to contemplate suicide - being able to walk away from, or turn your back on, something that you have committed most of your time, money and heart to is a necessary skill for longevity in Thailand. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dfdgfdfdgs Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 It's a cute post but why give them money. Let them make their own. Thailand is not that poor. They can make 500 baht a day quite easily and live on half of that. If they choose to give the rest to their family, well that's their business. They're not going to be homeless or destitute. Better to find a girl who can support herself, plenty out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swissie Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 To blow ones life savings on a "Lady" is one thing, but to borrow 50'000£ from family and friends and then make a fast exit? He was fully aware, that he would never be able to repay the loans. Something like this I call despicable behaviour. Surely, his creditors will join in the RIP chorus, but from their point of view the RIP probably stands for "Rot In Purgatory". Cheers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
