The balance is in her own back account. He has no access to that account.

What a sad world we live in where nobody can trust anybody!

 

And there are many people who cannot trust themselves!

Umm no.
He kept 1 mil and put 5 mil in her account. Supposedly they know (somehow) that she took 2 mil out, leaving HER with another 3 mil that HE can't touch !

Recently saw a viral video where a woman tells her man she doesn't trust his friends, then to prove it she calls his friend who claims the guy is with him at that moment - and she proudly proclaims "point proven!". And here I am thinking "who the **** let's their woman have the phone numbers of his friends?!? No good can come out of that".

Similarly I'm here thinking "who the **** let's his woman handle his money?!? No good can come out of that". Even if there wasn't a "relative" involved - the money would get spent very quickly in her hands. Terrible idea all around.

I am sorry to say, but women around the world have proven to be increasingly fickle.  A man should never take it for granted that things are always rosy and the woman of their life will be forever devoted to him. 

 

It is a definite sign of the times.  Women have never been so unfaithful as current modern times it seems.  The old time of couples wed for life is history.  Men should self insure themselves against financial losses.  Never, ever take women for granted. 

 

Men have become the victim of 'wokeness', have become SIMPS and chest beating 'White Knights', trying to outdo each other as the feminist movement gains hold worldwide.  Men are falling for the scam IMHO.  Men have historically been the promiscuous ones, but women have caught up and possibly overtook men (women have the advantage of being able to be more promiscuous as men typically chase down women of all shapes and sizes).  

 

Women easily manipulate most men, who unfortunately too often place women on a pedestal to worship.  Modern social media and global internet access to other cultures has ensured the downfall of traditional cultures. Thai women are just the same/worse than the West. 

 

I came here with the naïve idea that Thai women were more trustworthy than the West.  Definitely not the case.  And it has just worsened over the near 20 years I have visited here.  Just look at the women glued to their phones, taking selfies all the time, totally self absorbed in vanity and narcissism.  Individual stories of "oh but my wife and I have been together for xx years" are exceptions to the trend and therefore do not classify as the norm. 

 

If you have money, for sure you have a better chance of retaining a woman here.  That dries up and they will walk away in a flash.  And in this case, this poor Thai guy foolishly entrusted the money into his partner's account.  Morals, dignity and ethics are predominantly no longer present in this terribly fickle society.  And it is not exclusive to Thailand.  it has been replaced by selfishness, greed and narcissism worldwide.  

 

 

 

Insightful...

Honestly, I dunno why Thai men get such a bad rep here; the women are on another level.

Because most of them sit around all day getting p*ss*d on cheap Thai whisky. Then beat the sh*t out of their wives. Good old boys 

[sateuk]

Just proves even more that Thais only care about themselves, the woman not even worried about her kids giving them nothing

Sadly enough- those guys' wives don't cheat on them, usually. It's always the nice guys who take care of their families that get done for by crappy wives. No good deed goes unpunished.

At least from what I observed, usually it's the kids who are expected to take care of the parents, not the other way around. Complete opposite from western countries, but it is what it is.

Agree entirely, but not when the mum and dad win the lottery 

[PomPolo]

Not just a Thai thing so not sure we can relate it to Thai culture.
I am sure there are many western men that have been taken for a lot more than 5mill by a scheming foreign x-wife, I know I fall into that category ????

Feel sorry for the guy maybe just a little bit too trusting and naive over his relationship status with his girlfriend.

Sounds legally like he hasn't got much of a case, just made a large gift to his GF.

[steven100]

you win the lottery here in Thailand .....

 

a)   you can't keep the ticket in the house because the neighbor will rob you in the night and steal it.

b)   you can't give the ticket to the police to register because the officer will keep the ticket and do a runner.

c)   you can't show it to somchai while having a p_ss up with him because he'll kill you later when your drunk

d)   you can't give it to your bank for safe keeping because the bank clerk will take the money and run.

e)   you can't tell the missus because she's bangin your friend and they'll both take the cash a clear out. 

 

It's impossible to trust anyone here.

Would have only taken him an hour to open a bank account and got VIP status with that deposit.

Nice guy but doesn't seem the sharpest tool in the shed.

Pol Lt-Col Somsak Ketphiboon of the Thawatburi police said no crime had been committed.

 

The account was in the wife's name and she was entitled to do as she pleased with the money. 

So, the man deposited his money into her account (presumably for safekeeping) and the police say that it's now her money - as if he gifted it to her.

Man needs to get a lawyer to go to court and get an order to freeze that account until the true owner of the money can be established - him (or possibly 50/50).
