Thailand goes all in on The Homosexual Movement
One self admitted Queer. I suspect a few more and/ or Transexual as well. While some young 20’s Trans can be attractive the geezers on here should never have transitioned. It won’t work. -

That's fine, until extension time and they say, "Gotcha." -

Who's Gonna Win The Tyson Fight?
That is one of the most boring videos I have ever seen. If you have ZERO personality or character why would you start a YouTube channel? Monotonous drone. -

Thai Tax Returns for Foreigners
I agree. High net worth individuals will stay less than 180 days in Thailand. Crazy if they didn't. So, you subscribe to the old theory, "the Thai's would never do that because they would lose money." It hasn't exactly gone that way in the past though, has it? The numbers have already been crunched. Most pensioners will have to pay something, albeit, not too much, but they will have a tax liability here. Remember, a little out of a little can be a lot for some. -

Lawyer for Thai/USA will
I am a U.S. citizen living in Thailand, and I have studied this extensively. One cannot make a Will that covers all assets in all countries. The courts in each country will not recognize any part of the Will that discusses assets in a foreign country. So, finding a lawyer to do all that for you would be a difficult task. You need a separate Will for each country in which your assets reside. Fear not. Writing a Will that is legal in the U.S. for assets in the U.S. is so simple, why would you pay for a lawyer unless you needed to draft something like a "Living Trust" which requires a little more work. Google it, Youtube it, and you will find that Wills can be written by hand on a piece of scrap paper if you want. There are an abundance of "Will templates" online. Many are free. As for a Will in Thailand. As mentioned, it can only cover your assets in Thailand. It MUST be written in Thai language, but you can include an English translation, which is a good idea. There are a few requirements for Thai Wills which must be adhered to but nothing difficult (e.g., must identify the executor, etc.). You can pay big money for a lawyer which is what I did the first time, then I learned how easy it was, and did all my revisions myself. And take caution. When I trusted the Thai law firm to write my Will in Thai language, they used low-level admins to write it. Then I went to a second translation service and found many incorrect translations.
