How to become a millionaire (as a billionaire) in Thailand... Classic!

My question is how does a. Billionaire lose that much money and not know.

He obviously had to work to get it.

 

Hell he makes silly Farang look like rockstars 

[steven100]

The story doesn't really explain.   So it took him 18 yrs to see his billion go down down down to 10 million.

He didn't see his bank balance going down down down ....  and decide to put a stop to it. ?

 

oh well'  he's still got 10 million,   and her family are all quite wealthy and rich and happy.  ????

How the billionaire thought an 18 yo leopard would change her spots is beyond my comprehension. She's just getting started.

So he's known her from birth 

[Gottfrid]

Just strange that he didn´t notice anything before billions have disappeared.

I know quite a few rich people get their money by illegal means, or by bending the rules , but if you have that much money, why would any sane person choose a freelance prostitute? There are plenty of greedy women out there would would do anything to be with a rich man. Beautiful women who will sleep with anyone if their wallets fat. But then again, sometimes karma does hit the right people.

After reading the article, it seems to me the only thing she asked for was the money for her father's surgery, everything else he offered or just provided. How is that theft or fraud?  He paid her for a service, and she provided the service.

Doesn’t make sense. How do you go from billionaire and buying a couple of cars and a few other luxury items to being almost broke. Where’s the hundreds of millions that have gone missing. The story isn’t painting an accurate picture. Btw it’s good to see rich Thai farts also getting fleeced. 

[Tropposurfer]

Sadly the gods gave us two heads, but only enough blood to run one at a time. 

 

Man, he must have been senile to allow a gal fleece him for 'billions'. Millions maybe but billions !!?? 

 

In the years I used pay for play freelancers, with some over many years of regular contact any fleecing was minimal and no request for 'sick buffalo' money was ever handed over.

Entirely worthless thread in the absence of photos of the young lady.

45 years old is not a young lady.

Quite.... just varying price mark

[trainman34014]

And when they question her the answer will be ''I did it all for my Family''....the stock answer from all Thai Women !

[andux]

LOL the story sounds so fake.

 

My guess is that someone read the buffalo story while having a drink in Nana Plaza and came up with this sh*t.

 

 

[redwood1]

Well her family is now stinking rich......So maybe they could give him a job mowing the lawn on somthing on their new estate...

[newnative]

     No fool like an old fool.  Perhaps there's more to the story than the Thaiger article but, if not, I'm not seeing a crime.  He freely bought her all the things mentioned, freely paid the hospital bills, freely paid her large sums monthly, freely gave her other large sums of money, etc.  Freely started the business mentioned.  Now he wants his gifts back.  Good luck with that.

      The real crime is how he could have blown a billion baht so stupidly and been so unaware of his dwindling fortune.  Now, with apparently just 10 million baht left, he comes to his senses.  Welcome to the real world, guy!  Welcome to Cattle Class when you fly.  Welcome to normal housing, normal restaurants, normal shopping, normal everything.

      You're 70.  10 MB doled out at 50,000 baht a month will buy you 16.6 years, which will get you close to 87 years old--if you survive that long, which I find doubtful as you seem to lack enough sense to cross a street safely.  You'll still have a larger monthly income than many Thais.  I suggest you learn your quite hard-learned--and quite long--lesson and practice some fiscal discipline--or you may find yourself sleeping in whatever car you have left.

Good Job Girlie!

Great mix between 3 Luxury Cars just as a gift and the obligatory 300k for father's surgery as a little self treatment...

 

I love these Thailand "I lost all to a biach" stories.

They getting told from the stone table as first hand story or in high class places where only the most professional beauty has a chance to be part of the story.

As long you are only rich enough to buy cheap, you are safe from such gold diggers LOL

[Walker88]

I suspect they mean a baht billionaire, which is about $27 million. Not exactly Forbes 400 level.

 

It's still surprising if she extracted a sizable percent of that, but even the greediest gold digger would have taken her ill gotten gains and disappeared long ago if she pulled more than a rounding error from a dollar billionaire.

Because most billionaires are not really billionaires.

[Bangkok Barry]

Haven't we read similar tales dozens, maybe hundreds, of times where the person who has been tricked is a foreigner. Not involving such large sums, of course.  Interesting to see there are gullible Thais as well. But I don't see how he has any grounds for fraud. Everything he gave her was of his own free will. Trying to save face, I suppose, blaming her instead of himself. Just another example of a Thai never taking responsibility for their actions.

Gold diggers go with rich men that have money. Prostitutes go with anyone that has money.

I've not encountered many prostitutes that would go with anyone that had money. Most of them pick and choose their customers.

I dunno - she has a billionaire boyfriend but is still a freelancer. I wouldn't get your hopes up for a cancer cure from her.

Sorry to show my lack of refined English.

I am from Australian stock too. AFAIK, there are no convicts in my ancestry. 

Not being judgmental, but isn't the term "fine Australian convict" an oxymoron?

It's not only farangs who are targeted then. Any fool will do.

[Hamus Yaigh]

This "news" story makes no sense at all if the reporter is not going to explain how the idiot billionaire became a billionaire in the first place?
