Been here 26 years + for your information. Speak the language and have a near and full grown family of my own (HERE). I interact with more than several several Thai business people who are well to do whom are my close friends, as well as middle and lower class Thai of all variety whom are my good friends. So I get around a lot. I'm sure that guy will have a problem over this at one time or the other with his wife. No disrespect, but I would gather I probably have more understanding of Thai people and whom they are for their culture in my left pinky than you may ever have in your entire time here. 

Congratulations on your left pinky.

 

To fit all that culture in it must be as large as your ego.

Something tells me, this gentleman and his lovely wife will have a long and happy life together.

Out of sight out of mind where no feelings are hurt or ugliness remembered thus having no foul done with little petty money give aways.. And yes I on my own do support the fun and games to keep the institution of the boys club alive here. Just as I get older not as much as before as my house is more comfortable.

A mindset that allows a little, mostly grows to allow more with time. Also hiding one thing, many times lead to hiding more. 

It´s not the right way to go. Even if it´s not very manly, the guy is doing the right thing. That when it comes to hiding or showing openly.

Yeah, not that I really care as most of all of us do not know any of us personally. That is unless you go seeking foreign companionship outside of this platform with Thaivisa members. And as having to really prove cultural knowledge and awareness, I don't. But my statement stands and most foreigners don't have one iota of common sense or a clue for what's going on or how to truly be and act with Thai of all flavors. It is complicated for most to ingest.

hahahaha. If the hat fits, then yup!

That's one lovely, understanding and happy couple! Most probably he lets the wife/lady handle the money. Nothing wrong and perfect understanding which might be too complicated for some people to comprehend. All are having a nice time, without the complicated 'mensa' attitudes!

 

Hell, he didn't even slide it under her waistband or put it in her bra.

 

No big deal.    And each lovely got only 33 THB  from the whole thing anyway.

You got  that right. The Boys club that actually put Thailand on the map. Not that I go out too

much anymore, but I do entertain guests visiting being men and women and they all appreciate to have the oddity. Normally the business men are more profound. Been with the same woman 20 yrs and out of sight out of mind is certainly the best way to go.

Doesn't he have his own money? Why's he giving his wife's money away? 

When going out for a drink, I always give my purse to my GF. If one can trust his lady 100%, this is not an issue. But, 99.9% seems to NOT trust their partners - as per the majority comments on the TVF

Disagree, his wife took it in all in good spirit... looks like they are a good partnership.

She obviously has the purse strings so he can't take one home !!

Indeed. In this case perhaps the DNA has less to do with nucleic acid and more to do with "Don't No Anything".

I kept wondering if the guy was going to "cop a feel" in the normal drunken Thai guys' manner in such situations, where they push the money into the pretty's cleavage (or other bodily section) and do some mauling in the process....

 

I think, the Thai guy's pregnant wife probably wouldn't have been too happy about that kind of scene, so probably best that this particular guy avoided it, at least in THAT situation.

I trust my missus of 12 years 100%, but I'd never ask her to take care of my wallet for me - I'd feel naked without it! 

TIT. Mind you not sure if my missus would be to happy with me. Not the girls but the Bt100.????

 

My wife always used to hand me 20bht notes to stick in their knickers or bra tops.

She always expected me to cop a good feel at the same time.

Thai women are often like that.

 

Thought the guy in the video was a bit restrained.

Thai humor is difficult from those that come from a rigid, straitjacketed culture.

I disagree, read my post #47.

Not only my wife, but seen a load of other Thai wives doing the same.

Agreed, seen plenty of guys who spent their life here, but learned nothing.

My pocket never has more than 500-1,000bht in it, she can hold it if she wants, no need for trust, I can take the loss. She can eat it or steal it, if it costs more, she's the one paying the excess.

 

Same for blokey evenings out in Vietnam/Cambodia/Philippines.

$30-$50 in my pocket, no cards or ID or junk, when the money is gone it's time to return to my room and sleep.

Yes and some geniuses have a hard time driving a car. And even if THAI visa says if you don’t see the humor in this then one needs to learn more about THAI culture is tilted and off. But everyone has their opinion and mine differs from that.

Life is all about choices. He could have chosen to not pay the girlies. Maybe that would have been a better choice.

She looks like a keeper, I love a girl with a good sense of humour and who can have a joke and a laugh.
My wife would have acted exactly the same.

As would have mine because she knows that I have no interest in going out for a takeaway from McDonalds when I have fillet steak at home and neither does she
