Wife transfers from dependent visa to Retirement Visa in case I pass away before her.
@LivingNThailand I assume you keep that 800K locked in an account throughout the year for Immigration purposes. I also assume you transfer other funds to cover monthly expenditure. If you can afford to make a monthly overseas transfer of 65K per month to your wife's Thai bank account in her sole name, then after 12 x monthly transfers she qualifies for an extension based on retirement independent of you. -

BREAKING NEWS Second Assassination Attempt-Secret Service get Trump to safety
You sound rather paranoid. What freedom did the Supreme Court erode? As for gerrymandering, it is a plague at every level and done by both parties. To you, the path to dictatorship is happening even now, with Joe Biden in the White House? Interesting... -

Commerce minister plea: Time to cut the baht and boost the rates
Tourists don't care if it's up or down 10%. It's a temporary cost for them. Expats living here care a lot more. -

Today I met the first farang returning home because of exchange rate
Western currency losses are due to Japan raising interest rates. Previously with Japan charging under 3%, the big big boys were borrowing billions of Yen at 0-3% then buying western currencies to short term invest at 5-7%. This devalues the Yen and boosts the price of the western currencies. Then Japan raised their interest rates, so they sell their western investments, sell the western currency and buy Yen. Cashing in their profits and reversing the flow. Nobody in their right mind borrows money to invest in Thailand. So the Baht is not affected by this seesaw of buying and selling. -

Shingles - Worth the vaccination?
There 2 diff. vaccines. Shingrix is 2 shots & more effective, higher cost. Old one, Zostavax, is 1 shot, less effective. I doubt it is still used. We paid about 1600 THB I think. Look at hospital websites for diff. prices. Try Thai RC. -

Reduce taxation by gifting.
It's several factors, chose the one that excites you most: - not enough potential new tax money to be had, amongst a mostly rural poor. - no political will to pursue poor people for tax - giving subsidies with one hand and taking away tax with the other is mean spirited and unproductive. Chasing the 75% has never been a priority, because other tax channels have taken up the slack, VAT, corporate etc. Now times are financially tighter, all avenues are being examined but the ones that have best payback will be first. -

5 Former Defence Secretaries Urge UK to Allow Ukraine to Use Long Range Missiles
If your goal is a forever war then that is an excellent approach to take. Both Ukraine and Russia are corrupt. The media spreads propaganda suggesting this is good vs evil but I doubt that is even close to being true. What is accurate is there are no winners in war other than the arms manufacturers and those who help themselves to the money being used to fund it. The losers are: 1. Russian people. 2. Ukrainian people. 3. The western taxpayers funding this nonsense. The only reason it continues is that the western taxpayer is funding it. Nobody voted to fund this war in the USA or the UK and I should think taxpayers from these countries could think of many, many better things to spend the money on. Remove the funding and Zelenski and Putin will be forced to negotiate. -
