Damaz6052 Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 This story is about the cost of living in Thailand and why you have chosen Thailand to be your home. If you're interested in being interviewed please send me a PM. There's no payment it's voluntary and it's for the 24th March 2012. Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HongKongPhooey Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 There's plenty of older people on this forum but I think you lost them with 'There's no payment' I remember reading a thread on here once where someone asked if anybody wanted to write some restaurant reviews. It was obvious they meant only for the fun of doing it, but a few people on here suddenly thought they were Keith Floyd and were demanding thousands of Baht for their words of wisdom. Good luck with it anyhow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ping Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 I wonder if there are that many Qland expats here? In any event, if there are, no doubt a percentage of them will be happy to chase a glimmer of limelight, without payment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's very few Ping so it seems although many retires from NSW, VIC and WA in Phuket maybe the good weather in QLD has something to do with it.

SantiSuk Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 I thought OP had typoed and meant Old retirees, not Queensland retirees - in which event he would have lost the sympathy of his target audience form the off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Felt 35 Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 (edited) Dangerous topic at a time when Governments all over the world cutting pensions and set pension payments and disability allowances based on costs in country of residence and not costs where the pension rights was earned!

KarenBravo Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Thought it said Old, not Qld. Guess it is limited to Aussie codgers from the Deep North. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a point. Undercover Inland revenue officer perhaps. Thought it said Old, not Qld. Guess it is limited to Aussie codgers from the Deep North. Must admit, I thought it was a typo and the OP meant Old. Did that bit about a Brisbane newspaper get added later or did I just completely miss it? A bit too specific a group I would guess. Not only do they need to be from Qld, but they need to read TV and want to be interviewed. Won't find too many I don't think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did that bit about a Brisbane newspaper get added later or did I just completely miss it? No, the title always mentioned Brisbane newspaper, but I must admit I too read it as Old and not Qld ..

Ping Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 Yes, I didn't see it as old either - after all, would the opinion of a young (25ish) retiree be any less valuable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
