Popular Post colinneil Posted June 7, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted June 7, 2019 Why is the OP just sitting there feeling sorry for himself? Been there just the same, got jailed, left with nothing, borrowed 10.000 baht from Prakonchai nick. Got back to the UK and worked bloody hard to get back on my feet, and i was 61 at the time. 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was talking to an old retired guy in a pub in Worcester where I now live, some months ago, he was moving out to live in Thailand the next day. He has/had the same girlfriend for 7 years in Thailand, she had convinced him that it's not possible for a farang to own any property in Thailand, condo included. we all know that farang CAN own a condo in Thailand......so part of your comment is wrong........ 5 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post nausea Posted June 7, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted June 7, 2019 (edited) Another bl#*dy "log into Facebook" video. On the face of it a casebook study, wonder what his immigration status is if he's broke. And I can't believe the 11 hours ago, snoop1130 said: He hopes that he will be reunited with her one day. The story's all a bit too neat if you ask me. A cynic might think it's designed to evoke sympathy from the Thai authorities. He's changed a bit in 10 years, natural ageing - maybe.

She even ran a laundry business that Tony, 56, financed. Not to worry. Tony had brought a nest egg of 10 million baht to Thailand. It was bound to last. So, if, after financing all of the above, he still had a 'nest egg of 10 million baht', what happened to that money? - Shoddy journalism? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CMNightRider Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 Thai bar girls have been fleecing naive western retirees ever since they have started coming to Thailand. There are so many sad stories like this. To add insult to injury, the Thai government has gotten into the act by requiring western retirees to deposit their money into a Thai bank. It looks like many of the western retirees are staring to wake up on this one and leave Thailand. At least the bar girls were doing something to make these retirees feel good. The Thai government has instructed Thai Immigration not to make these people feel good, but just require them to deposit the money. Any western retiree considering moving to Thailand for a happy retirement, should have their heads examined, lol. 1 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that my friend was seriously funny....I am still laughing. However I do feel sorry for Tony as naivity and an open heart is not a bad thing and we need more of it in this world but when arriving in Thailand for the first time one needs to tuck those qualities far far away and use your brain and not emotion in the LOS.

Brickbat Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 Easy pickings are world wide. Not just in Thailand. Aussie women get scammed for millions on dating sites. And that’s $$$. Not baht. But they take a bath. When you appear vulnerable, the sharks appear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Dustdevil Posted June 7, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted June 7, 2019 10 million baht isn't that much, not enough to be called "wealthy" in the west. It's just $322,500. That amount is "wealthy" only by Thai village standards. To be sure, it's barely enough to retire in the West at age 65, as long as there's some social security "pension" to back it up. But to take it to Thailand and finance a half-dozen projects? I'm surprised it lasted more than a year. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
