The wifes daughter and son in law and their mentality..

Some years ago  I  loaned   them  money to buy a second hand pickup, which the guy uses   in his   own  work shop. (He is  repaying me,( slowly)

The  wife (  my wifes daughter)   completed a  computer programming course , over a 12 month  period, for which  she paid several thousand baht fees.

They  then decided they wanted a new pickup.   For appearances   sake..  Despite my objections, my wife  loaned (?) them   several hundred thousands of baht, to  pay cash for same.

They were offered 80,000 baht  for their old pickup as a trade in, but  no,   the  son in law  reckoned he could  get more buy selling it  privately.

Ok,  now  the    girl  has completed her computer course, was offered a  office job, at 450 baht a day in a large  factory nearby.  Her husband refused her

permission, as he  states he is worried she  might get a boyfriend there, and leave him.  So she sits home all day now..  As for the  old pickup,  after 12 mo nths,  still cant sell it,  highest offers hes ever got was  40,000, but hes  hanging on now for that elusive 80,000 baht...   But  hey,  T.I.T.

Well I would just comment it was your wife's money and its her daughter, so would just let them get on with it.

Personally I wouldn't get involved if they ask again for a loan of my money.

Never be a lender or borrower.....

Hiso life....
