U.K. State Pension - probes on resources in 2025
Not sure whether these forthcoming changes to UK State Pensions will apply to expatriates: But they do indicate a desire on the part of the UK Government to limit payments to O.A.P.s, using as a justification the suppression of fraud etc. (A pity the Government cannot be more careful with the money the politicians and bureaucrats throw at their pet causes) Funding of pensions, public and private, is of course known to be at risk. Because of lower returns on 'safe' investments, which in turn forces pension funds to invest in riskier assets. And 'safe' investments such as gilts and commercial bonds are becoming riskier because of currency devaluation and economic slow-down. To which must be added, in the case of expatriates, that the much slower economic growth-rates of the G7 countries relative to those of many of the countries whither they have moved, will, if the trend continues, lead to increasingly unfavourable exchange rates. We are living in turbulent times, and the relative stability 'the west' has known in the recent past is not necessarily a good guide to the near future. -

Car recommendations
Personally not a fan of hybrid, as no seeing the need, practicality of 2 systems. But, if going with an ICEV anyway, PHEV or HEV would be better, I guess. BEV fan myself. MG fan also, since had / have the ZS, ICE & BEV versions, respectfully. Had Toyota & Mazda in the past, and wouldn't buy another. Overpriced underperformers. -

LTR visa application for wealthy pensioner and non English documentation
I think this is more of a "rules are rules" = "must be in Thai or English so I can check the box" thing - rather than them understanding it. I would check with local translation folks and see what they quote. Make sure THEY handle getting the translation certified - so if any issue with that part, they deal with the Thai govt office (MFA) who certifies it. -
