  1. Can you read ? Said i was married to one for 15 years . I get that they are cheaper to run and you can control them through money . But writing off all western woman because you cant control them or get a decent one is nothing but cringe.
  2. Sounds like you old codgers have been burned . I have zero issues with western women seems like your ego got battered by them Not wanting you . Says more about you then them .
  3. The other thing we have to take into consideration is the majority of guys that come to thailand have hardly had their choice of pretty western girls . They are not what i would call high caliber males . They have most likely been picking low hanging fruit in the west and then come to thailand and repeat it again but convince themselves this is real as they hold most of the cards now (money) its delusional to think some old farm girl rump is somehow A better standard then a decent western lady . Keep Convincing yourself that up until the money runs out …..
  4. Most are as dumb as rocks which is why a lot of western men prefer them . I was married to a thai for 15 years ,lovely girl but the miss understandings and still not being able to properly have a conversation (shes fluent in english) got me in the end . I have gone back to western and love having a proper conversation and there being no cultural miss understandings .
  5. Depends on where you are in America. I live in the NW and they make us brits seem outgoing . A lot of farangs in Thailand cant bear the thought that they are not the only gay in the village so tend to ignore other foreigners so they don't lose their perceived uniqueness.
  6. The 4-5% increases are probably right . The property tax on my house went up 15% this year ! This is also the reason rent shouldn't go up significantly in Thailand as there is no property tax .
  7. Glad your son gets to see you mate . Make up for that lost time and enjoy
  8. The restaurants are a front . The prize is the visa .
  9. Sorry I didn’t want to be a Debbie downer on your situation. Is there any way of upgrading the land title ? If it’s in pak Chong and you have a decent title the Bangkok people would snap your hand off for 3-5 million baht a Rai ! Going back to your original question I don’t think there is a problem with selling in the first year but you will have to pay a higher tax on the sale of the property as if memory serves my right you don’t pay it if you have owned it for over 3 years (I believe ) . Good Luck
  10. Not really . Just send it back using something like xe trade . I don’t know what the threshold is in Britain for money coming from abroad . Just send back just below that amount and you will be fine .
  11. What part of nachon Ratchasima is it ? My in-laws own land around pak Chong be very careful. A lot of the land around there is national park land that was sold illegally . There is a beautiful area called wang nam kiao (spelling might be a little off) where lots of people bought land there just to find out it was all illegal . You can farm the land there but you can not own it outright . You will see a lot of dead resorts around there for this very reason . All the locals are in on trying to sell the land even though they know they don’t own it .
  12. I can’t see how this can legally be done . If your friend defaults on the loan how do you as a foreigner take control of her house ? If I was the thai I’d take it to court and tell them you was entering the agreement with dirty hands knowing you would have to skirt (break) the law to take ownership . So when posters on here say they done this or done that they most likely didn’t do anything it was all done by their wife .
  13. Yep that’s correct. I sold a house and my wife sent the money back no problems . I’d send it in staggered amounts though .
  14. In a world where everyone is tripping over themselves to sound desirable It’s refreshing
  15. Long haul flights and the stress really weakens your immune system. The one thing we can say is no one really has a clue what’s going on .
  16. Who wrote this article ? The airline industry ? They also say that the hepafilters on planes wipe out 99.9% of bacteria ….. anyone that’s been on a long haul flight will safely say that’s bs .
  17. Why can’t you ? If anything we already know that the drs don’t really have a clue how it’s passed or how long it takes to incubate .
  18. Out of curiosity why can’t you get it on the plane ? Some flights are 20+ hours with recycled air . If anything the flight and airport is where you are almost guaranteed to test positive .
  19. Your wife needs a job with regular (not erratic) income every month or a business where she can show her income. This is what you wrote …. I can see why he replied to you now . Couldn’t see it before and assumed he had replied to the OP????
  20. Who’s talking about you ? He said his wife and step son and his wife and kid . He shouldn’t be supporting any of them when they are perfectly able to work and provide for their own blood .
  21. Once I finish work I’ll private message you. Thanks
