Popular Post webfact Posted January 18, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted January 18, 2023 Picture: Thai Rath A north eastern couple who live near the border in Sisaket scooped big on the state lottery yesterday. Wilai, 35, and her husband Rattaphon, 38 won six million baht with the number 812519. They chose 519 because it is the number of Rattaphon's new motorcycle. He had a dream that it was stolen. Picture: Thai Rath When Thai Rath arrived at their house in Ban Non Daeng there were twenty well-wishers who came to share the good news. They all live in an out of the way area in the shadow of Khao Phra Viharn. The media described the couple as the new millionaires in the village. -- © Copyright ASEAN NOW 2023-01-18 - Cigna offers a range of visa-compliant plans that meet the minimum requirement of medical treatment, including COVID-19, up to THB 3m.

Popular Post OneMoreFarang Posted January 18, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted January 18, 2023 I wonder how long it will take before they realize that 6 million is not as unlimited as they might think. Good luck! They need it. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post swm59nj Posted January 18, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted January 18, 2023 I wish them well. It’s enough money to improve their lives. Hope they are cautious with those “well wishers”. Even though they might not use it very wisely. They have more money now than some expats will have in a lifetime. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then, she won 1k and she was on the phone for days on end to tell everyone, so in the end her phone bill was higher then the money she won 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steven100 Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 That 6 mil will be gone in no-time , Auntie Noi wants a new house because the roof leaks, Uncle Ton needs a new Rice harvester because the old one has seen better days and Cousin Nok needs a new car as her old one is broken down. That's just a sample of things to come .... multiply that by twenty times and it's all over red rover. This time next year they'll all be on the Lao Khao again buying more tickets ..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneMoreFarang Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 If they live 40 years more, then the 6 million is equal to about 410B each day, for both of them together. Hopefully someone does that math for them. I know they could invest it and all that. But the 410B sounds very different than 6 million. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steven100 Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 I wonder if the wife will do a runner with the winnings in a few days I wonder if the policeman will disappear when they register the ticket I wonder will the bank clerk siphon the 6 mil from their account I wonder will his neighbor shoot him when they have a drink to celebrate Winning the lottery in Thailand .. ! what could possibly go wrong. !!
