Relocation to Thailand - Thai Customs
Hello guys, I'm moving to Thailand and after donating 80% of my stuff to the thrift store I'm about to hire an international relocation company and ship some belongings of personal value to Thailand. Most of the items are pretty common: books, photos, posters and paintings, clothes, and some dishes with family value. The only odd thing in the shipment would be a used foosball table that is not available in Thailand, I would like to think that having only a few items that needs customs clearing and import duties would be manageable. Does anyone have experience on how to coordinate this with the Thai Customs and which items to avoid in the shipping that may cause a lengthy and costly bureaucratic halt at the customs? Any previous experience or sensible advice would be very appreciated Thanks, Matt -

Trump Attempts to Delay Sentencing in Hush Money Case
He will not go to prison at sentencing. Not going to happen. Trump just wants to postpone the shame of being sentenced to probation or house arrest at worse, most likely suspended until after November. -

Lying on the ground can be unsafe if there are water monitors and snakes in the area. Also centipedes and stinging ants are more prevalent on the ground. Animals sleep in trees for a good reason. -

Trump Attempts to Delay Sentencing in Hush Money Case
I suspect that less people intend to vote for him than the current polling shows. By now everybody knows if you speak of DT with anything less than abject adoration you'll get denunciation and death threats. -

Can you defend yourself?
I useally smile, and back off, or face it, so far no one tried me. Happened in Fortaleza Brazil, 3 men gave it a second thought in a side street I used as a short cut in the middle of the day, something I was told not to do. I was lucky that day, no consequences, just a heads up, always listening to the locals. -

Baht becoming ridiculously strong
Your position is based upon gold having a fixed supply. As has been pointed out, supply and demand is a major factor in determining a commodity's value. Australia and Russia have the largest gold reserves in the ground (about 2/3 of the worlds unmined reserves), If they so wanted either one of them could flood the market and crash the value of cold. The US holds the largest gold reserves in the world, and if it wanted could release some gold and manipulate the price of gold. I offer that the value of gold is inflated through manipulation. It is not as bad as the ridiculously false high value of diamonds, but it is there. Some countries do not bother with gold reserves. It's an expense to hold and to store and for what? Gold is only one commodity. Canada does not have gold reserves, although it has about 6% of unmined world reserves. Its reasoning is sound. The country holds US$10+ billion in foreign exchange reserves, consisting of a diverse number of foreign currencies. Canada also holds massive commodity reserves in oil & gas, lumber, minerals, water, food and power generation. The Canadian government holds billions of assets in financial instruments that are used to respond to market pressures. Gold is one single commodity. A basket of diverse valuable commodities spreads risk and is far better to respond to catastrophic incidents. You can't eat gold, but you will need electricity and petro products to operate, and you will need potash to grow crops, fish to eat and lumber to build with etc. Modern wars are more likely to be fought over food, water and energy. They are not fought over gold. -

Trump Attempts to Delay Sentencing in Hush Money Case
Judge delays Trump’s sentencing until after the election IMO the judge is going to sock it to him. Should DT legitimately win the election the situation will be dumped into the lap of the US gov't. The Originalists will come up with all sorts of comedic talking points (as usual) about how the founding fathers would handle a case of a felon becoming president. Apparently the founding fathers had no qualms about strip clubs, otherwise they would have mentioned it. 😳 -

Splitting my time between Thailand & my originating country....
9 months a year on visa exempt since 2017 i dont believe you never heard of a single person being able to get away with that. Valid point about visa exempt as oppose to setv since it currently offers same amount of days at present. However immigration will only let you get away with so many visa exempts per year before they ask you to get a visa thats 1 reason why people in Thailand for most of the year would still get the visa to decrease the chances of being denied at the airport for too many visa exempts. -
