Looks like Mr. Tretnes is having a hard time down in Pattaya.

He made fortunes (well.... everything is relatively) hundreds of millions of baht in Norway operating "gaming / slot machines"

Looks like the wealth did not bring immediate happiness....

can't even afford a decent bong by the looks of it

I didn't think it was legal to buy a bong here.

i actually thought that was a decent bong he fashioned himself. kudos to the creativity the yabba god brings to the chosen few.
