Why Do You Even Drink?

[Woke to Sounds of Horking]

Real simple. Older men flock to Thailand because of woke libturdishness in the West. Ever seen how nasty looking and scowling Western women look these days? Sheesh. If looks could kill. Couldn't imagine entering into some kind of legal agreement with them. Thanks to all the woke sh!t these Western b1tches hate men - and they don't even know why - that's how effective the programming has been.

You said, "It's quite interesting, when I was a Cayman lawyer earning 6 figures I got my then wife a job as a secretary. She earned 60,000 dollars on top of my salary. Do you think she paid for the rent, food or necessities? No. All saved for her."

 

Sorry, I can't account for dim people, if guys can only retain a woman if they pay for them then it is not my fault.

 

I can give you my contrasting story though.

 

During the 1990's and 2000's I was earning about £140,000 as a freelance software engineer a year through European contracts and one USA contract,  it was mostly tax-free seeing as I set up the company in the British Virgin Isles.

 

My then-wife had a 150-seat Thai restaurant in an expensive area in England from 1994 and for the next 27 years, the takings were £12,000 a week, and the profit margin was high. 

 

I think after salaries and other costs, tax etc she made a profit of about £150,000 a year, our two kids went to private school all of their lives.

 

We pooled our money and bought a few houses over the years, they are now worth millions of pounds, and we retired early.

 

So that is one example of a male and female pooling their resources, therefore, your claim that women either expect not to work or keep all of the money themselves is not the case, it might just be happening to people like you. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You are seriously dim, but are not aware of it, clearly. I said the ex wife got a salary, she worked for the money.I never had to pay her a cent, she made plenty of money. The law firm she worked for paid her 60,000, I did not. That woman was fantastically loyal and there was never a question of "paying  to retain her", what are you on about?

 

If the takings in the restaurant were 12,000 a week, even with a high profit margin of 10% that's 1000 per week. Hardly big coin.

 

140,000 a year plus 4000 a month but you bought "a few houses" that are worth millions now? How? That income is nowhere near enough to "buy a few houses worth milions".  You'd have to put down 200,000 deposit for a house worth one million, but you bought them like confetti on a 140K salary? Do tell how, lol. I bought a house in the sought after area of St Albans in 1998, even in 2024 that 4bed house is only worth 500,000., 

 

Anyway, I was able to buy houses, whilst they're not worth millions, retaining my autonomy is priceless, being tied to a 60 year old aging woman because of finances would be my idea of a living nightmare.

 

My two kids also go to private school, btw, hardly a big accomplishment, tons of guys on here send their kids to private school.

I live in a large, three bed detached house, all rooms ensuite, set in 1.5 rai and a maids house in the garden ....rent free.

 

In return I pay the bills......2000/3000B/month and for food and drink.....coppers.

 

Not a bad partnership as partnerships go. 

 

And how old is the lady?

That's good going.

 

Anyway, I guess I should clarify. In instances where one or two parties are in economic need, they may well pool resources, as there is otherwise no way to meet bills and living expenses. However, where both parties have a sufficient income, or one party has a relatively high income, it is common for the party with the highest income to meet the cost of daily necessities like rent, food etc, particularly if that is a man. If a woman then makes an additional salary, the man normally has no issue if she keeps the money for herself, and she certainly is inclined to do so.

 

The fantasy of a true "partnership" where both parties pay all costs exactly equally, is quite rare, and when it happens more a matter of necessity than desire from both parties.

 

In your particular case of course the lady probably has no additional cost in letting you live in the house, so this is a mutually beneficial relationship.

You Da Man!

By the time many guys get over here they are already losing their sex drive. Some guys use medication to maintain an erection, but I guess that can't be good for you if taken all the time.

 

In addition, if the sex drive is not there interest typically wanes as well. So they are here searching for something they enjoyed when younger, but only doing it once in awhile.

 

I guess that's life. When the ability to actually retire somewhere you wished you could be as a youngster turns into not that big of a deal when you have the means to make it a reality.

 

Same with a lot of things. Expectation can trump obtaining what you desire. The pursuit of your goal can can be more fulfilling then reaching the goal. Planning to retire in an exotic country can be more exciting then living there.

 

Someone gets all pumped up in their mind getting ready to move. It gets built up too much. Then the reality of it does not measure up to the expectations and fantasies manufactured in their head (can lead to complaining about a lot of stuff once you have made the move 🤔).

The main rule of the thumb here is never "buy"...always "rent" !!

 

Always be worth more alive, then dead. Putting anything in the woman's name is the last thing to do if you want to live long enough. It's same back in the West but here one can get bumped off just for a scooter.

 

Many think they are the one and only, while behind their backs,  the fine lady is enjoying intimate yoga with multiple other partners.

You're never the one and only, unless living in a strict Muslim country.
