This is why we have to suffer here from hearing the every detail of our penthouse-dwelling members’ gut-wrenching extravagances.

I see that here all the time... people who complain abt regualtions then want individual regulations custom made for their situation...

Surly that's worth a annual extension with no questions asked. So a country should welcome in criminals, drug dealers, scammers and human traffickers with no questions asked just because they spend $1500 a week? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trujillo Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 I think it's very possible to spend what the OP says if you are living in a very nice house and paying very nice rent. By the way, the 800K baht in the bank, if you leave it there permanently for the interest and visa qualifications, is an opportunity cost that you probably should figure into your calculations, to some degree.

(no matter how much they protest) And I'm pretty sure you're projecting your own image onto others because it reinforces as right, your reasons for coming here. Personally, I'd been living in Hong Kong for several years and finally reached a point where I was burnt out from working, had enough money and was at the end of a significant piece of work. I'd recently divorced and couldn't see the point in going back to the UK so I decided to take a year off and spend it somewhere fairly inexpensive that I knew quite well. Far from wanting to come here for the women, my motivation at the time was to never get on another plane again in my life and to spend time in a culture that was very different from the West, sex and women couldn't be further from my mind. A year later I was starting to become normal again and I decided I liked being here, the following year I dated for the first time and at the end of that year I met my wife. Three years later I got on a plane again, for the first time. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SymS Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 500k baht per year, but 200k of that are "business expenses", so if immigration were to check that would be 300k per year. If the law changed or/and I manage to get PR or Thai nationality this would triple (1.5m baht/year). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I probably didn't make that clear enough at the start. But its been entertaining reading Again FUNNY GUY!!! you write about how your "wealth" or spending habits should buy you privilege then say it is not a posting about money... but it has provided some interesting quibbling amongst posters... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
