Popular Post nev Posted July 1, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted July 1, 2019 Not another gloom and doom topic on Thaivisa, We all know the exchange rates are not in our favour and we don't need reminding everyday that it isn't. There is nothing we can do about the strength of the BAHT let's move on to other more interesting topics. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course the Tv financial gurus saying " never put even $1 into a thai 3rd world bank" did not do to well. many more years of the baht destroying most foreign currency still to come..bring it on ????

But its the pound thats getting pounded and the pounding is done. Krone/Aussie dollar/Nz dollar all far worse with 30%+ losses in the past 4 years. Euro not much better from 50 to 34 in 6 years. When someone picks the pound out of a bunch of failing western currencies to slam I always think 'remainer'. Because it's a political statement they're making. Pound is down 4% against the USD in the past year, 1% down on the Euro, not that much of a difference IMHO.

Entirely without prejudice It has nothing to do with Brexiteers, It has everything to do with Powerful Remainers. Ask the Bank of England it was knocking the pound down the second the vote was in and for no reason other than punishment for voting the right way. Those same powerful remainers are continuing to hold up and screw up Brexit thereby denying democracy. You think you have it bad! Try living in this god forsaken country where food prices have deliberately gone through the roof, council tax is another mortgage, and we are having our ass taxed off us at every turn on top of which having worked hard for 47 long years saved all we could after tax in order to try to enjoy a few luxuries in retirement but instead now having to spend those savings to support a disgracefully low pension because the said savings attract 0% interest. Do yourself a favour come back for a month and see just how far your money will go, and then just maybe you will stop bitching about something you appear to know very little about. And that goes for the rest of the Oh woe is me brigade Yes 38 baht is a far cry from 55 just a short time ago and it is making life difficult, but brexiteers did not cause it. Currency manipulation by the banks is doing it. Why is the baht so strong and the £ so weak? It is because it is politically expedient to carry out an illegal action and ignore it’s illegality. Why is the Australian dollar, and many other currencies so weak? Is that also because of Brexit? Or does it have something to do with bankers and politics??? Come on I know the coffee is total c—-p in Thailand but if you wake up and sniff hard enough some of you might just smell it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
