It is easy to travel around Thailand and video to promote travel. I was very happy and then answered ok" "job in thailand" "He hired me to make a video" "I learned a lot from working with this company and then having fun. But I quit that company after I worked there for a year because I did not like it." .... I disagree that many 'digital nomads' are stating that on their websites - that is not 'online income' - I think personally if the authorities take any action they will just target these easy wins - especially as he's written in Thai stating that he took a job in Thailand making a video. Maybe he had a WP though, who knows. Not only needs a work permit. But all those videos he makes need a permit and a government minder. At least that is what is on the books.

I'm not sure whether Mormons get some kind of formal WP (volunteer?) for their mission or not. I'm sure they have the financial resources to be a registered NGO or charity in every country they send the kids to.

ThaiCitizen Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 Not many commenting on his video in his defense, he makes some very good points. However, some just dislike him, as he has made it big here. Pure jealousy, due to them probably working as a TEFLER or in a factory in Detroit or Bradford at his age. This guy has a huge fan base.

Well done son! Like the guy or not, or his stuff, there's a lot that could be learned from how he's carved out a living for himself by doing what he enjoys. In Thailand, no less. Where others are wondering how long their pile of loot will hold out in Thailand, his is growing bigger while he's having a blast. Or I can resent the guy. One path will burn a pit in my stomach. The other may allow me to grow my nest-egg after I give up my real job. To anyone who thinks he's an idiot, how much did you make here in Thailand last month? (Full disclosure- I made more than he did, but I didn't have the fun- and mine will end some day when they quit mailing my paycheck to BKK).

If his visa and work permit is to be a missionary, he's going to need to convince the Thai government that torturing animals is God's work.

Are you trying to tell me that Youtube in anyway can be connected to moral. Unbelieveble. You can take the whole Internet, and you can´t find moral, more than in the way of trying to explain what the word means. That´s why it´s better to leave the things to the laws in the country you reside in. You must be the first one to not know that Internet is world wide and can´t be controlled. Therfore you can not associate either Youtube or Internet with the word moral. Just an impossible mission, but by all means, good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
