ldnguy Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 The plates are worth more than the car. I would have taken the money and got a new car. But then again I am not the rich elite of Thailand who can spend money like that while other suffer in poverty. You can also spend money while much of the world lives in poverty, but I bet t doesn't stop you. So have a go at richer people if it makes you feel better. But the fact is that people are suffering all over the world while you spend your money. Money you most likely got from being born in a Western country. You have money just because you were lucky enough to to be born in the right place. So continue to spend your money while others suffer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ldnguy Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 More money than sense. How do you know how much sense he has. You've never met the guy. But it probably makes you feel better to mock others. Maybe time to take a look at yourself. People with money usually have enough sense to be able to make money. The losers look on and think they don't have any sense. I suppose people living in abject poverty who can't even afford to eat most days would look at farangs drinking beer at a bar or drinking coffee at Starbucks as having more money than sense. It's just a matter of degree. You think he has more money than sense ONLY because he has more money than you. It is petty jealousy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ldnguy Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 (edited) Find out who gave him the money , let him prove in what honest way he made it . If he can ...OK If he can't .....confiscate the money and put him behind bars. Same in europe . Can we also do the same for you? They don't do this in Europe, so no need to spread lies. Many people buy number plate in UK and none are investigated to see where they got the money. <snip> Many people are wealth because the own land or businesses. Most wealthy people have accumulated wealth legitimately. But some poorer people, like you, would prefer to believe that they got it illegally. <snip> Edited October 1, 2014 by Jai Dee flame comments deleted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fakser Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 This will make him a target for some, hope he has good security. Rich but not too clever. The interest of any driver is to bare the least rememberable number plate. If you want to skip a traffic ticket make it hard for the policeman to remember it if you are on the run.

Morakot Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 it will probably be a good investment and could be sold on in a few years for an even more ridiculous sum, potentially to someone else who quickly needs to find a place to 'invest' a large amount of cash.

daveAustin Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 So what's the difference between this and people in the West paying $10m+ for old paintings and other trash? Some farangs on here love to knock Thais but worse things happen in their home countries. So this guy wasted 25m baht. In USA they wasted $4 trillion in last decade or two bombing other countries. I wonder who caused less damage to the world. In case you're American and don't know the answer, it's the Thai guy. You could make your point without coming across as a loved-up Thaier than Thai pleb that sounds like they have spurned their homeland after their whitey significant other dumped them. Investing wealth on paintings suggests class and sophistication, wasting daddy's money on a freakin number plate (wherever you hail from) is just sad because it is ALL for show. Btw, that $4T you say was wasted likely generated double that amount in arms sales, engineering contracts and all that juicy black gold that was acquired, also helping to rid the world of scum... while the Thai guy continues to do F all for the world. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

graeme64 Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 And so many young Thai people can't even afford to go to university. Sick... Sounds like you're jealous because a 19-year-old is more successful than you are. It's funny that so many farangs get so jealous when they hear of a Thai person with more money than them. Perhaps it hurts that they're not top of he pile like they thought they were. If you're so concerned about Thais that can't go to university, why don't you do something to help. Maybe sponsor a student or set up a charity to help. No chance of that though, as your type just prefer to whinge all the time. Actually, I am appalled by this child/families behaviour and agreed when I read Euroflash comment. I work full time at a children's charity and volunteered here for 2 year before that. I have no issue accepting the fact and often comment when talking about fund raising, the fact that the rich Thais' have WAY more money than the rich Farangs. But this is ludicrous. And yes the money could be WAY better spent. But that goes for a lot of things. But when you about stuff like this, yes it annoys me. And yes I spend my life trying to help others. And Yes I whinge a lot G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JacChang Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 When a rich man buys something, he does not need to ask for the approval of the poor. Hey, it's his money, what do you care? You think 25 million is a lot? It's just change. Worry about your own problems why you don't have even that chump change, before criticizing others. As long as this purchase wasn't illegal or harm anyone in any way. Just think of it as the rich giving money for public use, he's not complaining, why are you? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Number plates in Thailand are not trash, as it could be possibly the only one in existence, the price of that number plate will only go up in value. Let's say 20 years down the line, someone richer than this guy, will want to have that number plate, and will offer any price affordable to receive it. Like any economy, that money spent, will be circulated in the public, just depends who benefits from it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ldnguy Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 (edited) How is it a waste of money, as many on here claim? The money has gone to either charity or the state, so the money will be spent. If the number plate was bought from another individual, the same would apply. The seller would have 25 million to spend. It's just money. Money circulates. It can only be wasted if it's locked up somewhere and never used. Spending it keeps it in circulation and others eventually benefit in ways you can't see. Maybe it will go towards building a hospital. Maybe it will go towards helping the poor. Maybe it will be spent on a building, thereby creating building jobs. I don't see how it is wasted because it's moved from one person's bank account to another person or company's bank account. The money still exists. How on earth can anyone say it's wasted? If you think rich people like this have too much money then you should be celebrating the fact that they are getting rid of a huge chunk of it. A rich person is 25 million poorer. That seems to be what some of you want, yet you also seem to wish he didn't spend it. Make your minds up. Edited October 1, 2014 by ldnguy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
