How much sin sod for 28 yo single mom of 2 Bangkok suburb (Rangsit)
Thank you all for the answers. I know my situation is unusual, but it’s certainly real. Here is some more information before I reply to each of you. I'm not a too naive farang though. I'm trying to get kids for cheap as possible with her. Background: I'm a 22-year-old U.S. student graduating in Summer 2025, planning to live several months a year in Asia. From January to May 2025, I’ll stay in Asia to study, then return in June for exams (on a tourist visa, staying in Thailand for 90 days). Afterwards, I’ll work in the US. but visit Asia several months a year. When I’m older (late 20s), I plan to live in Asia more permanently. I met her in February 2024. That summer, I stayed in her home while taking online classes, paying only the power bill (4,000 baht/month). I got sex daily, and she became pregnant, but we lost the baby in September. This winter, we discussed me staying with her for several months, getting her pregnant, and giving a 100,000 baht Sin Sod. Money: I’ve given her less than 10,000 baht directly over nine months. She earns 10,000–15,000 baht/month as a hospital or teacher’s assistant. She hasn’t asked me to support her kids, but I assume the little money I’ve given goes toward them. In 5–10 years, I see myself working in financial services in the US or Asia, or possibly as a remote digital nomad in data science. The former is more likely because remote jobs are hard to get. Concerns: I’m worried she views me as an ATM due to the high Sin Sod demand and fights about money, though she was very kind while pregnant. Justification: It’s cheaper to have a family in Thailand, and $3,000 is much less than U.S. costs. However, it’s still a lot for me, and I’m concerned she might restrict access to my kids if I don’t provide more money down the line. She’s okay with no US visa. So far I plan to negotiate the Sin Sod down or pay over time. I’ll fully support my child but not much more, but I won’t be present half the year. I won’t need to buy a house or car like her ex—he already bought items my child can use. -

Help needed with one question about UK frozen state pension.
@Keith5588 I read that Telegraph article before. Let’s break it down. 1) It says that if you spend 183 days in an unfrozen Country then for the rest of the time you can spend it in a frozen Country and still get the current rate for the whole year and any yearly increases BUT YOU MUST HAVE YOUR PENSION PAID TO THE UNFROZEN COUNTRY. 2) Where it asks what if I return to the UK and then leave again it gives the example of returning to the UK in 2024 and leaving 6 later in 2030 and says you will keep the 2030 rate but after 6 years how could the DWP say you have not been a Habitual Resident of the UK. In the comments there are links that say returning British Citizen Expats have to apply for Habitual Resident status and that the decision will be sent to them by letter from the DWP but if they fail they can reapply when they think the meet the criteria. Also Mike Lister who showed the contents of his letter from the DWP were the DWP clearly stated there is no set period of time to establish habitual residence and it is about convincing the DWP assessment that you have settled back in the UK with the intent to stay and that you need to be classed as a habitual resident to reset your state pension so it doesn’t go back down and the same is said in other links. So with reference to the above is anybody confident that going to the Philippines for 185 days then returning to Thailand with no intention of returning to the Philippines that the DWP will freeze their pension at the current rate it was when they returned to Thailand. As I read they would say you was in the Philippines for over 183 days so you get the current rate for the rest of year then it goes back to the rate it was before you went the Philippines. Did Les actually ask it as once I done 185 days in the Philippines I will return to Thailand for good and will my pension be reset at the current rate and not go back down or did he ask along the lines of if I spend 185 days in the Philippines then return to Thailand will I keep the current rate. They are 2 very different questions.
