Do you know (Americans SS) to change ?
I find the easiest method to contact Schwab is through their online chat function. I use a desktop all the time... not a smartphone. Not sure if the online chat function is available on their phone app. I've asked them dozens of questions that way and the Schwab customer reps have always been able to answer/help. -

Schwab brokerage accounts operate pretty much the same as any other U.S. brokerage account, including these days typically no transaction fees on stock purchases and sales. Schwab Bank mainly has their checking account and debit card, with no foreign currency fees and reimbursing foreign bank ATM charges. Schwab makes it easy thru online banking to move cash back and forth between the two different sides of their operation, but both are available through the same Schwab online interface. Schwab Bank deposits are FDIC insured just as with any other U.S. bank. In the past, anytime anyone wanted to open a Schwab Bank account, Schwab would automatically include a companion brokerage account, even if people never wanted to use that.... But in the end, many do end up using the brokerage side and holding very substantial investments there. They make it easy, including easy to move funds between their bank and brokerage, and likewise easy to do online typically next day ACH transfers to and from other linked U.S. FI's that the account holder may have. -

I forgot to ask you what Thai bank do you use to get a cash advance on your US debit card? I used to use Bangkok bank but I've been told they don't offer that service anymore. -

The benefits of living alone as an older man
Yes, people in old age tend to break bones because they get brittle. Things like hips, not arms. When that happens they tend to not heal and it puts a lot of stress on the body. That stress causes other problems, like the immune system not being able to fight off many things including infections, etc. It does not mean someone is going to die right away, it just means they are getting old and they are headed in that direction. Many other signs appear, basically just ailments of all sorts, things not healing, one thing complicating another type stuff. Pretty soon you're going to the doctor all the time, taking all kinds of medication and realize your body is giving up and why the hell has your schedule started revolving around hospital visits. -

About the high class hotels
Gone are the days when posh hotels were family affairs. Staff who didn't job flit; that you could build a repor with and would welcome you back as a long lost friend. The Rock Hotel in Gibraltar was one, great customer service, nothing was ever a problem. Just follow a few house rules, as in don't leave your windows open unattended otherwise the bloody apes were 'In like Flint' and rummaging and stealing and making a right mess. The Goodwood Park in Singapore, another classic of outstanding decor and Customer Service. The Manderin Oriental in Hong Kong still retains its magic, in fact there next month for a school reunion. The Gran Melia Victoria in Palma de Majorcca as the flagship 5* hotel of the Melia Group use to be brilliant, until younger management in Melia Group took over the reigns, staff changes, modern upgrades, lost its magic feel. Use to swap Christmas presents with the door staff, 40 years service, dropped for younger inexperienced staff, same with the Head Concierge, who had Les Clef d'Or dropped for a 20+ something without a clue or experience. When high class hotels are run by Bean Counters the magic stops, they become functional as opposed to wonderful memories and experiences. -

He was not using an ATM.... he was doing a cash advance at the teller. Bangkok bank used to offer that service for free but apparently has stopped it completely earlier this year. I just opened a Krungthai bank account because they offer that service but they do charge 200 ฿. That's not too bad because with a Schwab card I can get up to 15K US$ per advance.- 1

China Expands Approval of Thai Poultry Plants for Export
The economy needs diversifying from mass cheap tourism. But it's stuck in a constant addiction to the cheap mass tourism because of the actions of the rules put in place. As with ever it's always the quick cheap fix. Policies of letting every man from every country enter thailand and essentially now stay as long as they want is going to harm the country. It will be cheap tourists. Do you see many indian tourists going into shopping malls ? No. The economy has been warned so many times it needs diversifying, the way Malaysia and Vietnam are doing. -

there certainly are other U.S. banks and credit unions out there that have lower or sometimes no FCFs, but you pretty much have to venture outside the world of the various U.S. mega banks. An expat first has to understand and be aware of just what FCFs are, and then do their bank shopping with FCFs as part of the equation. -

Global YouTuber IShowSpeed Crashes Tuk-Tuk into Temple Wall, During Livestream
When you see the addiction these youtubers get from the outlandish you even begin to question whether the crash was even authentic or staged. Who knows. -

No dns sever?
The device is provided by the building management. I think it is configured as an access point. When working, the addresses for ethernet and wifi are the same, but not net connection when opening a browser on ethernet. If you manually change the dns address and save it the ethernet works for about 15 seconds. Note: the wifi connection works all of the while. It seems that the only way to fix this is to to a hard reset on the main server and router. Then 9/10 times the problem will resolve itself.
