CharlieH Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 That's a fact of life evident almost anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Berkshire Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 That's a fact of life evident almost anywhere. Perhaps he's talking specifically about newbie farang guys who are all convinced that they're "hansum man" and smile at every Thai girl they meet. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thehelmsman Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 I like money... I also smile when it flows my way. Working long hours is the downside. I think the smiles would stop regardless of where you are if the money stopped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
britgent Posted March 18, 2013 Author Share Posted March 18, 2013 All the above is spot on. I must admit to openly laughing in the face of anyone offering to let me buy land in their name! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Payboy Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Trick is to keep the money flowing only as long as the smiles are in your direction. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HardenedSoul Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 In every facet of life everywhere, wouldn't you say? I mean, I doubt anybody with money on deposit in a Cypriot bank is smiling now that up to 10% of their savings are flowing to their government, right?

Songhua Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 As long as I'm smiling because I got what I wanted by giving someone my money, they can smile as much as they like. It's a win-win. I wouldn't expect anybody's going to pay me to drink their beer or ride their taxi. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thenervoussurgeon Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Well the smiles are flowing towards the wife this week as her sister gave her 100,000 baht and tomorrow she is buying me a new pair of trousers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
