At my stage of life just hoping to get to the departure stage without having to live in my car, given the pathetic pension, inflation and unaffordable rents.

This ain't the country I grew up in any more.

Are you back in NZ??

Age 67 now, nothing left I want.

Except another drink, another joint, another pizza and another turn with a hooker 1/2 my age.

 

Enjoy the rest of your non-drinking life, it may not be long, but it'll sure seem like it!

My goal in life is to be like you, BMT!

People who know me say,if they ever opened my mind nothing but 

pu…… would come out! 

It can be a curse sometimes though!

that is, Thinking with 2 heads.

Don't wish to grow old here. 

Want the wife,  to see and  be part of the real world.

she can then make her own choices.

same as  stepdaughter can do, if she chooses. to stay in the Thai Matrix or not. ( she is welcome to come as well)

I have seen most of it over here. warts and all.

23 years now, time to move on.

Not interested in 23 years more, it will just be same same but same.

a little bit tired of Thai so called culture.

Could make a new thread as to why I will relocate.

but, not interested in the 3000 pages of  BS.

The day I leave, when ever that is , will be .

So Long and thanks for all the jumps.

Recent goal: survival. (my family died out during Covid, so there's nobody but me to take care of me.)

Then an old one, that's got me through tough and good times: remembering what's important to me. Quiet, nature, few machines...it's different for everyone. 

For years I had one profession; the bottom fell out of it, so now I write books. They've become successful, so I feel kind of responsible to people who read them. I write better researched & written books. They're just good stories, frankly, but factually correct.

And paying attention to what I eat, how much I exercise, sleep, etc. That works; fewer dr visits, for sure.

Many goals.  Good luck to you. I know it's not easy.  Thanks for asking.

From NYTimes Paywall  April 11, 2022

 

'Cheap as Chips’ No Longer True in U.K. as Prices Soar for a Favorite Meal
The costs for fish and chips, a working-class staple in Britain for well over a century, have rocketed as the war in Ukraine has made the main ingredients scarcer. Of 10,000 shops, 3,000 may close.

 

HARTLEPOOL, England — When it opened in 2020, business was booming at Chunks, a store serving dozens of portions each day of Britain’s best known takeout meal: battered and deep-fried cod with fries, or chips as they are known here.

 

But even before the war in Ukraine further pushed up the shop’s bills for energy, fish and cooking oil, inflation had already forced the owners, Sayward and Michael Lewis, to raise their prices twice.

 

Now, with another spike in prices driving away customers, Chunks is on the brink of failing.

No idea. Never lived in one.

 

People who brag about money on the internet never have any. I know that.

Instead of giving up booze why not just drink sensibly. In your 70s/80s a small drink now and again is one of the few pleasures you have left. My only goal now is to keep breathing.

Of course. 2 or 3 beers a week will do you no harm.

I am 99 and my goal is to enjoy Pattaya every minute.  I have 200 million baht left, and I like to be around my fellow men who understand Pattaya is heaven.   I’ve been here for 54 years, my life’s goal reached.

 

Thailand……life goals…..three words that don’t work together.

More honest than most.

I have far exceeded my goals in life, which puts me in a quandary of what to do now. For the moment, I am relegated to entertaining young ladies in my condo in Pattaya, maybe its time for new goals.
