observer90210 Posted November 4, 2023 Share Posted November 4, 2023 Just now, save the frogs said: 99 per cent of people are "toxic". You need to live in a cave to avoid them all. Wow that's harsh. Kindly permit me to think that all people are not bad to that extent. Or elese maybe I got lucky ever since I started to brush away the toxic ones ? It's like a rare stone, you need to look a bit to hit on one. Have a nice evening and thank you for your comment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont' worry Bob, Churchill was also one, yet I think he sort of made it out in life I think !!. Not to mention other renowned authors, heads of state through history with diverse perversions or addictions. So no harm in being an alcoholic, as long as it does not harm/hurt others then oneself perhaps. You are fully right on the drunks or even sober jerks you refer to. "Quality" people who are just looking to rant, argue, contradict or be rude. I plainly put them on "ignore" on social media or in real life in society just politely smile, say "oh that's interesting" and turn my back to them and interact with somebody else away from the toxics. Thank god everybody is not like that. Have a nice evening pal. Edited November 4, 2023 by observer90210 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's like a rare stone, you need to look a bit to hit on one. Have a nice evening and thank you for your comment. No sorry, that comment was too flippant. Most people have some issues or complicated aspects of their being, but they are still decent people and it doesn't mean they should be avoided. Everyone has some issues. But some people are just downright nasty and will deliberately try to poison you. Those are toxic and should be avoided and are maybe only 20% or something. Sometimes, I'm toxic too .... and then I need to pull myself back and keep myself in check. At least I try.

It's way easier for a foreign woman married to a Thai man. As for being elderly and alone in Thailand, Again only a problem for you as you married a Thai woman too old to have children with you. Actually I do have a Thai child with my wife, although not exactly a child anymore all grown up and his wife is about to give us our second grandchild 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suggest you Google news articles on the State Public Trustees in each and every state. IIRC there have been problems in both Queensland and Western Australia, with the trustee denying people access to their own money. No accountability either, with their actions protected by law. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2022-10-16/wa-public-trustee-under-fire-over-fees-to-manage-estates/101499296 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better to find a friend or family member. Make them executor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
