So my wife thinks she's coming into a few million Baht (almost no chance).

And wanted me to sign a document stating any money she gets is hers, and I have no claim on it.

I say, "sure, no problem", and she brings over a notepad for me to write out the agreement.

I write "any money you get and half belongs to me" she tells me to sign and date it to make it official.

She asks me to read out what I wrote, and I read out "any money you get belongs entirely to you"

She walks off happily clutching the document to keep somewhere safe .........

 

You can't fix stupid!

True there are benefits to being married to a thai lady

Gambling or a new car? It's one or the other, possibly both.

Think she's trying to sell land for 10Mbht ........

She has a sticky rice farm in Lomsak and half a mountain in Nan.

Seen both places once, and never felt the urge to return to those rural hell-holes.

Nice insight into a loving relationship

Did she find another way to get your money?

From the wording, maybe I am as confused as your wife is.  Am I reading correctly that whatever money she gets (let me assume that could mean, she knows someone is going to give her money and you will have no claim on it! But did she mean something else??

And what would you do if she gets millions? Claim half of it? 

 

My agreement with my wife, everything in her name in Thailand is hers, and everything outside Thailand is mine.

 

At least the cars and motorbikes is in my name.

Thai True Love.    Tombstone of the poisoned farang:  ATM Lays Empty, and forgotten.

 

My first Thai wife saw my leg getting stomped by a herd of elephants and then I was poised by a snake and attacked by some soi dogs.  The hospital wanted 20 baht, and I couldn't speak to tell her my ATM number.   She left me there for 28 years debating if she should pay.  She never did.

1. I do not think you two are "legally"  married (done at Amphur) 

2. I assume the land is in her name on a land title ?

3. Even if married..... thai law is specific in that any assets previous to marriage belong

   100%  to the individual   ( any acquired later are joint property )

 

most thais can at least know this much .   maybe yours is "special ? "

First, you have stayed together quite long out of what I have read before. So, you mean she can´t read or understand basic English? Seems very far fetched to me.

After that, you say that you can´t fix stupid. Isn´t it really stupid of you to take advantage of, and fool her? A stand up guy, would just not sign if not want to, so please don´t start talk about stupid!

100% correct. Most of us foreigners knows that too.

I guess she doesn't realize binding contracts & wills have to be in Thai script.  Does she plan on getting a certified translation ?  Any witnesses to your signature ?

 

Me & wife ...  alll funds & property are already in wife's name.  I'm 70, and she's put up with me for almost 20 years, so she deserves it, and so much more.   Since she has it already, and still with me, it must be LOVE ❤️

 

Me hanging around any longer, isn't worth the wee bit more she'll be getting.  AND ... I don't need to look over my shoulder, as the longer I'm around, she gets 500k-1M more, every year.  I really need to start some frivolous spending.  Hey, I did look at that E-pick up truck

you do understand that any assets held before the marriage are the property of the owner.

haha   I have noticed that recent change of BM's perspective..... as I have been around long enough to remember his " i don't care if i die tomorrow"  attitude.   

Of course.... he had some serious UTI stuff going on at that time  😅😅

 

ahhh  life is change .    much depends on the urine and semen flow . 

and for many... how the "partner" has been acting like lately

 

"Go with the flow "

seems every Thai person is sitting on a massive fortune of land. They're all filthy rich.

 

My wife's dad (82 now) has 4 Rai in Mae Jo and she say it's worth 25MB. They can't sell it now because they can't find a buyer and blah blah blah but it's totally worth 25MB.

Not really! If you can´t sell it, it´s not worth the price asked.

Never misses the opportunity to throw in some reference to your assets .   Never.

Does add meaning to the reply.  On a retirement visit, not using an agent.  No real surprises, as I post about house & BEV, when queries are posted.  Far from rich, and simply enough.  Who doesn't make sure the wife & kid have a secure future when you're gone.  Not that either need me now.

 

Anyone, my or our age, that don't have some assets, then you made some really bad choices in life.  If I threw in I retired at 45, then that would be tootin' my own horn.

 

70 yrs old, don't own house (if wanting) or vehicle (no payments, if wanting), and living month to month.  How does that even happen ?   Especially if coming from one of those universal healthcare countries.

 

A house, car & oops fund ... that shouldn't impress anyone

HEY ... my dog loves me, even after she eats.   Follows me around all day, and laying next to me now.

 

And I'm sure she knows, if the would came to end, no food in house, and it was just me, the wife & dog, we'd be eating the wife to survive   And not in a good way .... for her.

 

Either can leave or kick me out, anytime they want ... and yet

I have read a few facebook group discussions about Thai ladies life with farangs, and trust me, they are almost up to the same level you find here 😉😅😂

 

what can you expect from a lady who do not have life experience or education ?
 

I guess his wife is as much educated as the average wife in here. And that is quite poor background for most. Some smarter than others by experience. 
 

just imagine a farang takes half of her sale of family property, ?
