The politicians peed away said taxes, while they created a country where many retirees are having to choose between eating, and staying warm. Taxes were paid and spent. The fact is the current generation is paying for everything through their taxes. No one will be cutting your pension. There will just be a requirement to stay in the country. I don't think this will happen soon, but probably in the next 10 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No chance ? Don't be too sure with database AI integration in west. Since the last 2 years, and because of Brexit , the immigration in UK and EU look at the stamps and pages in your passport ! I’m British . I was asked in Heathrow where I lived, I said France as I’m a resident.I had my identity card to show.,This year, Swiss air Nice to Bangkok transit Zurich, forgot my French identity card at home . Got a right telling off from the strict Swiss as I passed through EU queue window , UK passport, resident of France , forgot card !! If you don’t have your card or proof, normally they’ll stamp your passport. In my case they were lenient with a warning. I think a load of visas. and stamps from Thailand didn’t help, although my maximum stay in Thailand is 4/5 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

British pension is what around 30k baht a month? What a sad joke. Brit state pension currently 870 quid a month = 39,150bht at today's exchange rate. I'm happy enough with that, it's much more than I ever anticipated Edited July 18, 2023 by BritManToo 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yes, headaches more and more official checks at every turn.... 2-factor authentication to buy relatively cheap things with paypal now and elsewhere.

cardinalblue Posted July 18, 2023 Share Posted July 18, 2023 You leave a tip never pay a tip which is a solely voluntary act were you wrong in getting kicked out of the bar? don’t understand your defense as it seems you both had a different opinion on a subject… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JensenX Posted July 18, 2023 Share Posted July 18, 2023 (edited) How to deal with a Thai woman? Well, first of all, they are not all the same so we can just generalize. Please don't get upset if my generalizations don't fit your personal relationship experiences. If we're talking about bargirls, then the answer is quite simple. Keep the relationship 100% sexual. Don't get intimate. Don't get personal (stay as far out of her personal life as possible). Am I the only one to discover that once the sex is over, everything else is annoying? Get out of there asap once you've had your fun. If the fun has gone - get out. Taken down to basics, she's interested in money, you're interested in sex.

problemfarang Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 (edited) So you were discussing about money and who must take care of the family at a BAR with a MAMASAN who is basically a pimp. She lived in a sociality like that for years and thats her way of living. You were aware of this, right?

AustinRacing Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 Would you argue with a sugar producer that there are health hazards associated with consuming sugar? If you do, you’re likely to hit a brick wall. You’ll be in constant conflict if you think like this all the time. Hope you don’t. Life is too short. Enjoy the offerings at the bar, just don’t overdo the candies on offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some people might attempt to have deep and meaningful discussions with bargirls and mamasans, but there is a reason why so many choose to discuss this on an expat forum instead. When you're talking to bargirls, keep the discussions as superficial as possible. Talking to you is just a job for them - they would rather not have to. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GinBoy2 Posted July 27, 2023 Share Posted July 27, 2023 Maybe I'm just kinda old fashioned, but I do always pay the bill when we go out. It really is irrelevant since me and MrsG have joint finances, but maybe it's part of my dinosaur brain, and hers too, that I get out the credit card when we dine out. Don't know why, and I'm sure someone will tell me why it's wrong, and it makes no real sense but it makes us for whatever reason feel good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Far as I'm concerned, women wanted equality, so they can have it and pay for things themselves now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
