tonytigerbkk Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Wow, 2 part time jobs and you are freelancing. How do you find enough time to think up such drivel for your posts? I know a few girls in Bangkok who freelance for more money. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonytigerbkk Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 1,200 USD per month for working 3 jobs. That's around 38,690 Thai Baht, way to go playa. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post KittenKong Posted September 19, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted September 19, 2014 Reading the replies to this thread one can understand the attraction of being badly paid and happy in Cambodia. I dont work anywhere but if I had to I think I would join the OP there rather than mix with some of the people who live in Thailand. 27 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Combined this with those commenting on the "Scottish threads" and the " English couple murdered" and you wonder what's happened to this place over the last 20 years to attract such individuals.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Aussieroaming Posted September 19, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted September 19, 2014 Silomplaya...I understand that you are a teachers aide, please ask the teacher to explain the difference between "their" and "there". I suggest that you might be able to increase your hourly rate to something approaching the minimum wage if you increase your grasp of English grammar. In the last week you have announced that you were moving to Cambodia as a teachers aide and have since upgraded your employment status to include two teaching positions and freelance tutoring. My suggestion is to drop the Silomplaya identity and take up the Pinoccio handle as it is far more fitting. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tonytigerbkk Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 (edited) CH, you still haven't (can't) answered my question, how much tax do you pay to the Thai government on the (supposedly ) 4 million Thai Baht that you earn each month?

eldragon Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 I'd say teachers working two part-time jobs make about the same amount here in TH. I'm told cost of living is a little bit higher in Cambodia b/c certain goods that are produced here in TH are more expensive there. The real LOS? People probably seem friendlier there b/c they were colonized and have a mentality closer to ours. But when it comes to lifestyle, I find Thais easier to connect with.

What Cyprus forgot to add to his post was that the 4.0m/m talked about was Monopoly money.... I am also advised Cyprus has significant property holdings on Park lane and Mayfair as well, from which he gets a signaificant rental income as well... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
