According to most of the resident TVF posters/gloom and doom naysaying horde your life is impossible and YOU must have a problem (some call it happiness).....

Personally I agree with you....

Most people are as happy as they decide to be.....

Not in Thailand full time yet, maybe one more year at the grindstone. However, I concur with your observations every time I am "home", and looking forward to being there full time

5 out of the first 6 things you shouldnt get involved with in thailand.

If you do dont come here and moan about it.

^^ and thats why I love statements like yours ,

Wife 11 years

Son 9 years

Buisiness, turning 1m$ per anum with healthy net margins

House ( morgaged ) costs less than renting a similar property.

So they must be 4 of the 6 , as to the fifth must admit you got me ,

Should I not have friends or the correct Visa ?.

And congrats for keeping TV up to scratch , couldnt have a thread without input like yours , thankyou

Sorry, read it wrong. I thought you were not happy about all the things you listed.

Carry on.

Agree, but to some (many?) Nothing to moan and complain about would be like removing oxygen !

Gosh, gasp, shock, horror and certain death would follow,

how dare you be positive !!

Wife 11 years??? Don't you think she is a bit young....

Just kidding- great post!!!

Yep agree, happy maybe 95% of the time, compared to 20% of the time on a good week in the UK...

I hate Thai driving; (Thai) dogs; Thai food; yet I'm loving my life here in Thailand. I love being retired & having sufficient money to get by on. Love the weather; love the spacious bathroom in my house where I can sit in the shower & wash my feet; love the ladies; love riding my motor bike (came to it late at 70.)
