travelmann Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 I met my wife about 6 years ago she worked for a small chemical company on a salary of about 12000 baht a month, its seems so long ago now but her life has changed dramatically, I marrried her 12 months later and bought 4 condos for her to rent out and she quit her job and did this fulltime. Since then she has gone from managing those to managing over another 70 odd condos and regularly pulls in a salary of 150-170k a month. Its hard for me to think how much her life has changed yet she remains often wearing secondhand clothes and eating the simple things she likes. No big fancy cars or condos for her she still has a studio flat just nearer to the BTS. Shes done most of it off her own bat once she had the initial start up via me. We still live continents apart but this year w e will finally be together fulltime. Hard for me to imagine how different her life is now yet she still seems unfazed by it all. Has your wife's life changed dramatically since meeting you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swissie Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 Well Travelman, once you live with her "full time", you will find out. But, according to your description of her (unchanged) lifestyle, you may have found a diamond among the ruff! Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know her quite well i stay for 2-3 months twice a year and then come back to work in the UK although she has little sparetime for me now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zzaa09 Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 No. Same here. She remains pretty much the same. I surely wouldn't want it any other way.....:jap: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moonrakers Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 Actually I take back the words (that I didn't actually say) I missed the bit where she turned the 4 condos into 70 condos. Fair play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andrewbkk Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 When I met my wife she was a toilet cleaner in Nana Plaza. Now she owns a Ferrari garage, 27 condos and three of the top hotels on the Chao Phraya river. So yeah -- she's changed a lot, but I still get to take a dump everyday in a clean toilet.

saraburioz Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 What on earth is the point of getting married if you stayed continents apart for 5 years? Obviously, she has benefits - what do you get? My wife has changed a lot as we have 3 kids. I don't need to buy her condos as she is very rich and was when we met. Frankly, I wouldn't be able to trust a poor woman if I even had the cash to buy her things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

metisdead Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 Perhaps the OP had a valid point to discuss, seems others are more insistent on trolling so given this: Ok close the thread mods its a waste of time obviously This topic is now closed.
