The first paragraph has rung true for many, however thats due more to luck than investment sense and likewise people importing funds now could be in the opposite position of loosing half if the baht weakens and foreign currencies strengthen.

Rent is always wasted money and owning your own home is always better even if you don't own it outright due to laws here but tens of thousands of people have lost their life savings by doing this.

Do you mean it would be stupid to ask him for his license plate for the next lottery. I mean, when he was so lucky with the police and all that. You know as well as me. It´s a sure winner. The millions are finally here.

Sure, two years ago we were 95/5, baht/Pound, today we're 60/40, people have to adjust their position based on events and their needs.
