So, Does Your Darling Know All Your Income $$$ Amount?

[thehelmsman]

This might pertain more to the guys making good coin outside of Thailand who have households in Thailand. Or, is your lady simply satisfied not knowing all the details???

For me, I've been honest about real estate holdings but when it comes to a income dollar amount working offshore, I don't give details away.

Says a lot what you think about your darling/lady, whatever that may mean.

[Neeranam]

I never used to be honest but I find the older I get that honesty is a virtue that is very important in my wellbeing.

Most importantly the mother in law doesn't know

[Sealbash]

Why burden her pretty little mind with this knowledge?

I did not say anything about not being honest, I said I don't give all the details.

[Bernard Flint]

Details of my wealth are in a last will and testiment in Thailand. My other assetts are in a uk will for my son, at the moment.

Yes ,she knows my pin numbers and all my bank details , she has a British bank account and in the case of my death can transfer everything to her account. why not ,?

[Pomthai]

Full disclosure here too.

[David48]

She doesn't ask ... I don't tell.

We are smart enough for that.

She gets what she needs ... as distinct from what she wants ... another smart move.

She asked for a Payrise recently, explained why ... action ... granted.

I could not be happier ...

Yeah, same here. Works fine.

No

[JockPieandBeans]

Knows how much is in my Baht account and has an ATM card for it.

Does not know how much is in my Dollar account or UK account.

[Gonsalviz]

Darling or wife?

My wife knows full well the state of my bank accounts and has ATM cards for all. She also works and has her own accounts. Which I have no access to. Although I am pretty sure her accounts don't match mine.

[thrilled]

I don't believe she knows everything.She does know quite A bit.

[ezzra]

Whether she'll wait till you die remain to be seen....that is the question...

[jcb2001]

Depends if she is your wife or girlfriend? My Thai wife of 40 years knows everything and has full access.

I think we see a difference of relationship in these responses. If I were in a shorter-term physical relationship with my woman, I would not disclose my finances. If I were in a longer-term emotional relationship, I would disclose my finances. It seems a matter of trust--and yes, trust can be misplaced.

[chiang mai]

Yes and she has full access to it all including PIN numbers, she is the sole beneficiary of my will so why not..

Probably a lot of problems stem from Mr. Newbie Farang inflating, exagerating his wealth either explicitly or implicitly when trying to impress/snare his potential darling/lady.

Then when reality hits the fan, connubial bliss could be replaced by metal detectors and a resident food-taster as "until death do you part" sounds increasingly imminent and ominous.

All on a flash drive here for her.

[thehelmsman]

As one other poster stated - Why bother her pretty mind with all that.

Anyone who has gone through a divorce knows it's best to error on the side of caution.

Not giving all the details is dishonest if it is a wife or girlfriend you respect. If it is a rented "tee rak"or subservient country peasant you feel you are superior to, fair enough.

To which are you referring?

If you get hit by a bus today would you want her to have access to your hidden cash or not?

Being honest or forthcoming are two totally different things. The biggest mistake i made was being forthcoming about my income to my significant other. Oop's

Expectations!!!! Much better to cry poverty, only then you will find true love in the LOS....LMAO!!!

If i die tomorrow my money goes to my children or immediate family. Make sure to have a will in place or the attorneys will get it all!!!

[thehelmsman]

It's easy being honest if all you have is a Social Security check deposited monthly.

I'll bet most guys who are still getting better than average paychecks working offshore don't tell all.

She has access and you dont. No surprise there. TIT

I have not been declared mentally incompetent so NO I do not disclose full financial details to any woman no matter what nationality she holds.

I guess they know now that you guys are hiding your money.

I should say they know now you guys are hiding their money.
