Syrian government falls in stunning end to 50-year rule of Assad family
I see some claims that the plane he was in crashed and he may be dead. All the fog of war, of course. Will need to wait and see how things shake out. One thing for sure, Erdogan and Turkey are jubilant. They were behind this. -

Is there anything good about getting old?
Then, in the hindsight, do you think you lived "wrong"? Obviously, I also made some mistakes in my life, but in general I think I choose a good path. -

Introduction to Personal Income Tax in Thailand
The money that you have banked in the UK is subject to Por 162 and is NOT tax assessable in Thailand, you can remit it to Thailand whenever your want, free of Thai tax. Your two UK pensions are tax assessable here but you are also entitled to quite large tax deductions and allowances in Thailand. In your situation, from what you have said I would imagine you are liable to about 500k Baht in exemptions and allowances in Thailand before you have to start paying tax at 5%. If you give us some approximate numbers I can be more specific. -

Is there anything good about getting old?
Ah, reflection time My younger mindset was do it all ASAP, as I might crap out anytime, especially since sex, drugs & RR seemed to be my hobby. Thankfully only a hobby, and not a lifestyle like too many of my peers ... most gone for various reason. Got all the thrill seeking things out of me; going fast and not killing myself (cars & MC), jump out of perfectly good plane, white water rapid, swim w/sharks. Waited till TH for bungee, as not paying silly price just for a rubber band thrill. Remember thinking, stoned in a field thinking, as late teen, about the future, and just thought, this will do, just chillin', with no worries. So retire ASAP, so can do just that. Becoming a working class hero, even more so, retire ASAP. Old age is pretty much just that, but straight, minimal ganga & alcohol. Give me a guesthouse with a view and good munchies and I'm happy. Working for airlines, I got traveled out, so no desire, where most seem to travel after retiring. Never had or wanted kids, but now, since raising one from 2 ish yr old to out of Uni, can't imagine not doing. Glad I waited till I had the time & money to do it right. Having kids when most do, would have thrown a wrench into my smiles way back when. That accidently worked out perfectly. And a big surprise how rewarding it is/was. Now can't imagine what the last 20+ yrs would have been without her in my life. Don't know how I made it to 70, lucky, blessed, 'God is my co-pilot' (Atheist 🙄), definitely appreciative, and realize how fortunate. Might even squeeze 10 more year out of being a LPOS 😎 -

Thai lawyer argues most expats won’t be impacted by personal income tax
So on that basis I could use the balance of my investments and bank accounts as at the end of 2023 and be confident that I can transfer up to that amount into Thailand over the next several years/decades without any of it being taxable in Thailand? I didn't realize it was that simple.
