Thanks for the information, nice going I see the difference compare to where I have my money. Personally as I noted to each his own but for me here I have enough to worry about rather that run around jump throughs their hoops I do that enough already. I want this money which is way over the 800,000 to be accessible to my wife as soon as my number is up. Why, through the years I hear get a Will and Trust, but from two cases of expat I knew prior to their death had one yet with it seem useless still one has to go through probate and that takes time for my Thai wife that seems worrying to her. In one case, an expat Thai wife died, she had a Will and Trust, yet when he try to execute even after a court order everywhere he went to her hometown, the judge gave him a hard time, he had to hire another lawyer to process everything when he got the order came back to Pattaya went to land office, they couldn't care less what the order was these offices are in their own world. With that said , I feel that is the same way with banks here, each branch has their own thing! So I keep what is necessary in the account for Immigration when my number is up she walks in take what she needs or use the ATM card. The amount more than enough to tie her over until the rest comes from overseas. Sure the difference as you noted is great but I don't want or trust the banks or government here and have money back home in C.D.'s and Mutual Funds accounts that last 5 five years plus gotten returns in the 15% range to more than make up what I might get here. Thanks for sharing but here it is a mine field of mistrust.
