MrRealDeal Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 (edited) It won't matter .......... the Bht will be going up becayse if QE3 not because of the Embasy .... The dollar down is a better way to say it. UP for the bht means you get less fot your dollar.

Thinking is not so bad in first place... problem is that the Op has a preconceived opinion that something is going to happen and just seeks confirmation... But Op, you are right... something is going to happen... the Baht / US$ exchange rate will either go up or down or stay the same... your guess is as good as everybody else guess... but don't confuse some riots with wars... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Advice. Just ignore. You don't have to prove yourself to anyone or anything, especially here. (there's another thread about that going on right now - you can read it if you want a headache). It's just how things are on the forum. Fortunately, it's only a small few. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haters? What has your Iranian shoe crap to do with your question about the influence of the US embassy closure for the exchange rate??? what with opening a pastry shop??? you asked a question... people told you that it's an irrelevant question... and you told the people it's not... so you seem to know better... so enlighten us with your thoughts about where the exchange rate will go because of some riots in front of US embassies...

JSixpack Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 The baht will collapse and the economy will survive on bartering thereafter. Get rid of all your baht before then and be sure you have something you can trade. Gold always works here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see the haters that you refer to. There is a bit of sarcasm maybe, but that is because your question is seen by most of us as a really stupid one. Why on earth would you think that the US embassy closing for a week would have any effect on the $/Bt exchange rate? How do pastries have any relevance?? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't imagine a pastry exchange being successful in Thailand, though I suppose if Bill Gates had followed my advice I'd be typing this on an slide rule.

benever Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 With all due respect, if you are naive enough to think an embassy closing in Thailand has any effect on the exchange rate, you are far, far from ready to open your own business here.
