Must Read Its Happening - Law to Tax Overseas Income Now in Progress
Feel free to send all your money to them if that's how you how you feel. Since when is it right to take what's not yours. Remove all the foreigners that feeds this country and watch it implode. Must be a true liberal...not paying fair share. What a joke.. -

"BBC Accused of Bias in Israel-Hamas Coverage: Over 1,500 Breaches of Guidelines" I'm surprised its only 1, 500 breaches of the guidelines. The BBC is getting worse, its so far left now its almost on a par with CNN! -

Investment for income stream for a Thai
Let's start with the good news: there are index funds in Thailand that track the SET 50, SET 100 and MSCI Thailand indices. That is the only good news. Would you want to put your money into one? Here's the last few years' performance of one such fund. (The fund is the red line.) In 2020 it fell 11.5%, and in 2023 it fell 12%. A white knuckle ride. I suspect your partner would be extremely uncomfortable with performance like this. More bad news is that the income versions of these funds don't pay out regular dividends. This fund last paid out dividends in 2019 (though it's about to pay out again this year). This is a Thai fund peculiarity: if the capital value of a fund falls it stops paying out dividends until the capital loss has been recovered. It applies both to mutual funds and ETFs. I think you're being unrealistic hoping for a steady 5% without effort. Best to stick with bank deposits. 2.5% might be achievable with fix term deposits. As a Thai citizen your partner will have access to some better products than are available for foreigners. -

Trump's Proposed Mortgage Ban for Undocumented Immigrants Sparks Debate
