Why some of us did not get COVID symptoms …even though we were exposed.
RIP your friends and family. I don't know anyone who died from Covid but my mother died after getting the experimental mRNA Moderna bivalent vaccine. She suffered a blood clot, stroke and severe brain bleed 12 hours after the jab. She was otherwise in very good health and had just passed a fit-for-surgery health check for a knee replacement. -

Trump on Immigration: "We need a lot of people coming in."
Either you are law abiding or not because right now you are being a massive hypocrite, preaching mainstream media talking points when never previously giving a single <deleted> and simultaneously slagging Russian for illegal activities. A country has borders, rules and regulations or not. You're either a bot or a paid shill for the MSM. Get back to your Ukraine thread -

Trump Reiterates Warning to Hamas on Hostage Release
The article contradicts itself completely, you are deliberatly ignoring that fact along with if any of it is credible then it just proves Hamas are recruiting children to fight for them. Now there's another can of worms to open up. "A source told the Post on Wednesday night that the total numbers remain unclear, but that the quality of new Hamas fighters receiving weapons is far inferior to the state it was in earlier in the war, given that many of them are untrained minors." Your disregard for a poll carried out by Palestinians directly in Gaza is noted. "In the Gaza Strip, support for Hamas stands at 35%" -

EV Charging Stations (CS)
Well, unless BYD announces an extension of above free/reduced rate charging promotion over the coming hours the promotion ends 2 Jan 2025 at 11:59pm....just a few hours from now. Yeap, when the clock strikes 3 January the promotion is dead. A 5 month and 2 day promotion (it started 1 Aug 2024) that a government spokesperson announced in late July would be a "12" month program, but I guess BYD had a different idea like BYD maybe told the govt they would "think" about doing 12 months and the govt took that as a "for sure" 12 month promotion. Anyway, I topped-up with some more free electron this evening/2 Jan....get my last taste of the free electrons. This was my 80th free charging sessions as I've had very good access to ReverSharger Red Pin chargers in the greater Bangkok area that I typically drive around. I stopped at the Red Pin chargers frequently in my normal, day-to-day travels to the grocery stores, mails, mother-in-law visits, etc.,...and rarely did I have to queue more than a few minutes. In fact, I would say around 95% of the time I did not queue at all because I pretty much would only stop to charge if a charger was available or the charging app showed a charger would be available within a few minutes of me arriving at the charger. About the longest I ever queued (the few times I did) it was only for around 10 minutes. On the "average" I would top-up when having around 70% SoC..but quite a few times I could be starting from over 90%...and one time I started from a SoC of only 8%. I basically would top-up if driving by a Red Pen charger that was open and it was part of my normal, daily driving routine; I "did not" make any special trips just to charge. On 1 Jan when the wife and I went on a 416Km round-trip road trip I added 15% (about a 10 minute charge) of free electrons during the trip to ensure I had SoC-to-spare to get back to Bangkok. And then once getting back home to Bangkok I refilled the electric tank the next morning with free electrons from around 25% % SoC....this promotion paid our fuel bills for our New Years Day drivefest. At Bt8 per KWH, which ReverSharger charged during each session, I got a little over Bt12.3K in free electrons during the promotion. For my BYD EV with a 60.5KWH traction battery (my electric tank size) that amounts to over 1,538 KWH which equates to over 25 tankfuls of free electrons. Starting tomorrow/3 Jan I'll dust off my wall charger and return to charging at home at a total cost of approx Bt5.2 per KWH. -

Tax optimization as freelancer/entrepreneur
Why not set up a bank account in a neighboring country that you like? You go there for a small holiday every now and then. Go to the bank. Withdraw a sum on money the day before you come back to Thailand. Declare the money. Throw it in the safe and live of it for a while. ATM withdraws for the offshore bank helps as well. Just remit as less as possible. Why not spend the 111,000 baht on holidays, rather than giving it to the Thai government for NOTHING. It's not tax avoidance. It's tax minimization. Some may argue this, but TIT, so the chances of any problems is near zero. Did the same when in Singapore for the F1. Brought back a chunk of money. -

What Books Are You Reading ? (2025)
Colin Falconer was my discovery of the year in 2024. I just love it when authors blend historical fact with page turning fiction and come up with a literary feast. I've just finished 'Stigmata', a novel set in a little known period in French history during the persecution of the Cathars in south of the country. As usual with Falconer, Some great twists in the story and a completely unexpected ending. (plus an epilogue to bring you back down to Earth again) I've already downloaded my next book, so I'm all set to go. Happy reading for 2025.
