Question about changing from Money in the Bank to Income Method for Retirement EOS
Thanks, @Liquorice, yes, that is my understanding as well. I was just wondering if I need to bring the balance up to 800k for the last two months before the application, after the seven months of 400k. -

Trump's war ending/preventing reputation is tanking
Donald Trump fired back at Tucker Carlson after he accused the US president of being “complicit” in Israel’s attacks on Iran. The former Fox News host and MAGA figurehead rebuked Trump and the administration in his newsletter titled: “This Could Be the Final Newsletter Before All-Out War.” Trump replied: “I don't know what Tucker Carlson is saying. Let him go get a television network and say it so that people listen. Thank you.” Trump fires back at Tucker Carlson after he accuses US president of being ‘complicit’ in Israel-Iran attacks -

Tourism Israel-Iran Conflict Puts Thai Tourism in Jeopardy
File photo for reference only The ongoing Israel-Iran conflict is taking its toll on Thailand's tourism sector, with a potential 50% decline in arrivals from five key Middle Eastern markets. The recent turmoil has already led to decreased visits to popular destinations like Phuket as a result of airspace disruptions. Thapanee Kiatphaibool, governor of the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT), revealed that the Middle East crisis significantly impacts air travel. Airlines such as Emirates, Etihad, and Qatar Airways have rerouted their flights to avoid affected zones. Only Tehran-based Mahan Air has temporarily stopped flights to Bangkok and Phuket as a direct result of Iranian airspace closures, disrupting Iranian travel completely. The Middle Eastern markets of Iran, Iraq, Jordan, Lebanon, and Syria, which represented 7% of June 2024’s Middle Eastern tourist arrivals, face a potential 30-50% drop. June's travel typically sees increased traffic during the Eid al-Adha festival; last year, it attracted 7,165 tourists. This sharp decline could significantly affect anticipated tourist numbers, with projections falling between 3,500 and 5,000 visitors. Thapanee also voiced concerns about the broader impact on Middle Eastern tourists from Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Oman, Kuwait, Qatar, and Bahrain—nations accounting for 80% of the region's market—should they perceive travel as unsafe. Key Thai destinations like Bangkok, Pattaya, Phuket, and Chiang Mai may experience the most significant disruptions in hotel occupancy rates. The tourism situation remains fluid, with the potential for rebounding arrivals in July if tensions ease. Airlines like Royal Jordanian plan to introduce new routes, including a biweekly Amman-Bangkok service launching in August. Nonetheless, a complete recovery hinges on how extensively the conflict inflicts damage and disrupts travel. The TAT aims for a 1.06 million Middle Eastern visitor influx in 2024, a growth of 11% from the previous year, targeting an impressive revenue of 86 billion baht. Whether these ambitions are met will largely depend on resolving the current geopolitical tensions. Adapted by ASEAN Now from Bangkok Post 2025-06-18
