People first - like the quack that left the baby's head in his mother?
For the the most part, the doctors were dedicated and knowledgeable,
the quacks weren't allowed privileges at our medical center.

All power to you, but even Doctor's aren't perfect and don't have all the answers, just as fitness professionals like myself don't.
Last year a Caucasian doctor advised me to leave the polluted city I live in. When I left the surgery I saw her standing outside smoking a cigarette....
Worked with Physicians for 20+ years, like everywhere else, some are
healthy, some smokers, some overweight, some drank way to much, not
to mention the pill poppers ; people first than comes their occupation.

thailand is not a place to come to celebrate christmas, it is not a holiday here and 'celebrations' are limited to the commercial side with shopping malls being decorated and playing christmas carols (yawn), hotels, restaurants etc. frequented by foreigners may be decorated. there is very little understanding of christmas not surprising for an inward looking Buddhist country.
new year is a celebration but be prepared for crowds, little crowd control, pointless security measures, bombs in litter bins and at bus stops and a long walk home as the roads are gridlocked. i stay at home.
You should visit Our Church, lots of Christmas Spirit...also,
I love BKK and the Decorated Hotels and Malls at Christmas!!

Imagine all The Holiday Celebrations will
be quite low key out of respect for The King!

Plus 50,000 Baht extra to allow for currency fluctuations during the "seasoning period".
As as long as your Soc Sec and Investment Income or
other Private Pensions = 65,000 Bath per month you
are not required to show money in a Thai Bank Account
( Thai Immigration use 30Baht to the Dollar to calculate..

You must bring proof of:. Your monthly Social Security Benefits.
Any State Pension Benefits
. Investment Income Statements, Stock,
. Mutual Funds, 401,403 Benefits
You sign an affivadav, under penalty of purjury that the information
is true. There is a $50 Fee for the service and Notary Service. They
usually do not ask for proof of your income, this has been the practice
in the past. (. This year I know of only two people who were asked to
submit proof, something new perhaps,). It is better to take your proof
with you, just in case they ask!
You our must first make on online appointment with the Embassy.

Only buy a condo in your name. Tell her after you have been
together for 25 years you will give it to her, she can sell it
and than build a house with the money. You're crazy to do
anything else.

Most people are realistic to know that Thailand is not a good place to be if you become infirm. Most Thai's rely on family to take care of them when they are old.
Also health care, without decent medical insurance you are going to be in a whole world of hurt.
Now if you are lucky, and the woman in your life is willing and able, then you may be OK.
If however that's not the case, just make sure you have a bolt hole back in your home country, preferably near your kids. I know my eldest daughter would look after me....my youngest daughter? She'd have me sleeping under a freeway overpass!
I wouldn't count on your oldest daughter either. If a child would
let her father sleep under an overpass, it tells what kind of a
father she had....KARMA. ( For the drunks.)

Some people are delusional and fooling themselves. Old people require advocates, guardians to look out for them and to speak out on their behalf when they seek medical care or need to make a major purchase. The reality in Thailand is that it sucks to be old if you do not have someone to there for you. As soon as you become mobility impaired or incapacitated it is game over. Look at the sidewalks. It's impossible for anyone slightly impaired to get around. There are no community services for elderly farangs, save for some charities, and who wants to be a charity case?
Old people are ignored by the health care system. Toss them some pills and get them to go away. Misdiagnose, or mistreat and who will say anything? The elderly are vulnerable and easily exploited. Toss in dementia and bring a bag to haul off the bank account.
Sorry, but people who do not have a social support system that they have structured and have funded, will have an unpleasant stay in their older years in Thailand. Thai people don't care about some old guy that is incontinent, nor will they take care of the lady who has dementia.

You never come here to earn money unless you
have an executive position with a company and
they send you.
Pay sucks
here. You come here after you,have worked
hard and accumulated money, than life is great for
those who have the money.
