Realistically I had my wife sign a prenup. 

I had that with the 1st Thai wife.  Although, reality is, if living at village with her family, if they don't want you around, you really should leave 

 

The POA was way more important, and sold the house, ASAP, without her at the land office 

I never have had that problem.

 

I explained to my wife many years ago (no paperwork was necessary) that any money she earns is hers, and my money is in reality our money. It supports us and sends our Thai son to university.

 

Lands, house, land rentals etc are all in her name, everything is paid for and she gets 50% of 2 pensions when I die.

 

Money, house, land etc is of no use to me when I die. I can't take it with me, so my wife benefits from when I am alive and also when I am dead.

 

And she deserves it all.

You guts really need to get a life, other the critiquing my replies, and giving me thumbs down emojis.  But hey, thanks for the chuckles.  

FYI, I don't use thumbs down emojis.

 

You shelled out what? 800,000 baht for an EV? More?

 

I bought a 2006 Toyota Vios for 230,000 baht about 12 years ago. It had 83,000 km on the odometer. I've done 120,000 km in it, never missed a beat. It's worth about 80,000 baht now.

 

That's 12,500 baht a year in depreciation. What's yours, Mr. Financial Genius?

This is a bizarre post that only reflects on you as stupid. Why are you denigrating your own wife on a public forum? Is this how you get your kicks?

Did you miss the part about she doesn't want to share the money with her husband, but happy to take his money? What kind of woman and farang (you) think that's OK? 

Old saying - what's yours is mine - what's mine is mine!

Thai marriage law states anything brought to the marriage initially by either party remains with that person in the event of marriage breakdown.

 

To me, that's much fairer than Western family law. I would still be a millionaire under Thai law.

 

You are confusing said assets with a monthly allowance, which is a different and negotiated situation.

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 .........

It's insane. My gif is 25, doesn't have a driving licence or money to pay her rent if it wasn't for me helping her. But she owns land in Roi Et inherited from the father. She could be richer than me for all I know.

Well depends if there is real love or she is just his life long paid servant.

 

Obviously Mr Brit have advocated his view for years, and to be true, it doesn't seems his former statements serve him the credibility of he is paying her for her services. 

 

And you also advocates for every relationship is a paid contract she doesn't contributes with money and pay her share of the bills. No matter she being a housewife and taking care of kids

Allowing all Thai women to have full rights to buy/sell land regardless of a change in their name (to a married foreigner) was a move to make things equal with Thai men.

She was one of the most beautiful women I'd ever laid eyes on.

Zero common sense or ability to manage her finances though.

But that's not a problem as I have enough, as long as I keep a firm hold on it.

 

Me recognising our differences, doesn't stop me loving her.

If your children are stupid, naughty, foolish, reckless, do you stop loving them?

Not much different in the 'west' when it comes to divorce court, whether right or wrong.  Somehow the chickies, come out of court with the better deal.

 

Thankfully we were DINKS, and I was poor, for the 2 divorces, in the USA 

 

I'm bragging again, married 4X ... y'all impressed 

Need some relationship advice ????

I'm on number 4 too.

Number 1 turned into a meth tweeker.  The court gave her custody of my 18 month old daughter.
Number 2 turned into a lesbian.  I actually thought she was gay when I first met her.  Then it was, "I guess not."  Then she went to Desert Storm 1 and came back with a crush on her girlfriend who was very hetero.  She found a gay girlfriend and that was it.  I saw it before she did. 
<Interlude> I got custody of my 11 year old daughter after her tweeker mom abandoned her.  My daughter was a really tough kid.  I had to turn her into a normal kid.
Number 3 was significantly younger than me and I met her while finishing university at the ripe at of 39, she was mid-20s.  I was in incredibly athletic shape and was consistently pegged as being in my late 20s. However, she was around when my daughter was killed at 18 years old.  That was tough no doubt, but 9 years later she finished college, had a job waiting for her, and moved in with her "lab partner" who was younger than her.  I took early retirement at 55, said "F**k it" and books a flight from LAX to BKK after divorcing her and never looked back.  We pretty much split everything except my retirement.  She signed that over to me considering she had a lucrative job and I was now unemployed.  I was done with the US and farang women - "Hello SEA!" 
Number 4 is 8 years younger than me which now puts her in her mid-60s.  We have a novel relationship that works and it's lasted 18 years, way longer than the first three.  If we came into money, we'd split it. with portions going to her, my stepson, the local temple and me. Greed doesn't define our relationship.

Just refreshing your dating stories and what we discussed lately. Seems you are all over the place trolling

However - saying, "I'm not sharing any of this with you, farang," is rather greedy.  You do support her and your kid, right.
And yet when the fickle winds of fate change direction, it's "P*ss-off farang, you get nothing."

 

This is my line of thought as well. BritmanToo would have done so much for her, paid so much for her..and this is how she repays him. The problem of doing anything for a woman is that after she's received the benefit she gives no credit for it whatsoever anymore .They're all ungrateful ingrates.

You're clearly trolling here. It's very simple, I have a gf in Thailand and a Filipina wants to come see me on 10 July, it's not hard.

That can happen when you marry a bar girl, who is in it for the money to start with.

This is why the gf was talking about doing housework equally.

 

It's all falling into place.

Every woman is in it for the money!

Only the payment plans differ.

Some want cash up front, some want your home and pension at the relationship end, some will wait to inherit when you die.

Dear boy, garner some respect for yourself. That's not a GF. If you are paying her rent, it means you aren't even living together.

Sounds like a father/daughter relationship. But you aren't being a good dad.

Whilst that's true, this move by your woman represents an attempt on her part to uni-laterally change the terms of the relationship.

 

You would be well advised to unequivocally stand up to her and tell her "No", so she understands she can't change the terms of the relationship on her own.

 

My Russian ex wife suddenly came up with wanting children. After great resistance I agreed, and it was the slippery slope to completely annihilation.

 

This is how women operate, they seek to destroy by a thousand cuts, you don't even notice it and suddenly you've given up all your power.

Pitiful. I haven't been with even a single woman like that. I don't think you need to focus too long on why you post what you do.

You created your world. So that is what exists for you. There are other options. You just chose your path.

Another pitiful commentary. But yet, instead of being a man that tells his 'GF' no, you capitulate and demean yourself by paying for her company.

The younger guys wonder why the heck some ladies choose to be with a much older guy over them .  They don't get it .    The older the guy.... the less time to have to put up with him !

Not such a dumb strategy if you think about it .

 

and yes.... others choose something with less body odor,  but then try to get payment more on a monthly basis . 

 

Mine just loves me for my sharp sarcastic wit .     

 

ok Jake C .  Let me have the blast of scorn .  haha    This is Thailand, and like it or not there are many scenarios regarding male/female relationships.   Remember, even the "good ones" have a very large failure rate

I long ago accepted men have no power in any sexual relationship with a female.

 

Briffault's Law

"The female, not the male, determines all the conditions of the animal family. Where the female can derive no benefit from association with the male, no such association takes place."

Again, that's true, but within the relationship you can still have a certain amount of power. The woman will always try to challenge it, by making demands which change the nature of the relationship, so you need to stand up to her and make clear it's not acceptable. If you just let it happen, then indeed, in the long term you will have no power.

 

I mean think about it, if she's in the relationship because she wants something from you, that alone gives you power.
