hey Thai visa .com!!!!!

 

how about adding a "really really likes" button.  I really really like this one!

 

 

I guess maybe cause.... "even" in the USA.... we don't have banks anything like they have because of the money.  and their central bank now holds a nice chunk of just about every stock listed in New York... with dollahs their central bank converted from francs conjured with negative ****nominal**** rates.

that makes it really really hilarious.  and those dollahs are so precious... for a little while longer.  that's the biggest bet we will ever see. 

 

and just maybe why a real Central Bank decided to hold listed equities rather than US Treasuries?

ahem..... Thailand?




  

Lay off the yaba.

Maybe they don't have cashier's checks in thailand? ?

 

 

Guess they do, but only use them for totally 'legit' business, ...land deals very seldom are totally! Anyone paying registration costs on the (real) full value of a real-estate transaction in Thailand, erm...?

Perfect timing by the perp. Had to be Bank employee or relative who knew detailed timing about the real estate deal.

yeah.  word gets around very quickly.  Even if the bank employee handling the cash was honest and played no part in it, others in the bank see things, a janitor, one of the tellers that had nothing to do with the transaction, etc.  And of course all the other relatives or acquaintances of the family or wife.  So easy for somebody to overhear something, even if the guy's wife's family had nothing to do with the crime.  You just have to assume you are a potential target from anybody and all directions and take precautions.  Doesn't mean you have to be paranoid, just don't make yourself a target, don't keep large cash around, etc.  Any farang or Thai for that matter in a big new house is viewed as  a potential target

Should I need to "prepare" 500 000 Bahts for the next day, not sure I would go as far as to put the money under my pillow :smile: 

...but for sure not in another room than my bed room :whistling: pffff

Family, wife was yacking to the family ( boasting ) about the money.

So a family member took care of it for them.

The other houses were robbed as cover for the inside job.

Straight out of a Jack reacher storyline. 

cash as in  unreported income type of land deal?
