May I ask which bank that is? I used to transfer small amounts from my Bankwest account and would always receive a phone call asking for what purpose.

I couldn't agree more. When the U.S. Fed reverses their policy of raising interest rates into a recession, ending their tapering of bond purchases and resuming QE, gold and silver will soar. At the present gold silver ratio of 75/1, silver will outperform gold. Ultimately, I see the stock market falling 80% and I have long thought that this will coincide with a worldwide real estate crash. A 1929 style depression is very likely. Personally, gold and silver are my investments of choice, with a bare minimum of cash in the bank.

Interesting article. Thank you.

In the same way you think America "liberates" countries under brutal regimes, Putin is liberating Ukraine from the Ultra Right neo Nazis of the National Guard of Ukraine who have been battling pro Russian forces in Donbass and killing and terrorizing ethnic Russian citizens of Donetsk and Lugansk for the past eight years because they wanted autonomy from the corrupt government that was installed after the American government fomented an uprising in 2014. (Regime change) The United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights {OHCHR} has connected the Azov Battalion to war crimes such as mass looting, unlawful detention, rape, torture and other atrocities.

I used an agent in Pattaya for the first time in nine years of living in Thailand. 14k baht and was quick and easy.

I have a Bangkok Bank debit card and for the first time in the three years I've been a subscriber, Netflix was unable to process the payment at the beginning of this month. When I inquired at the bank, I was told it was a problem with Netflix. I believed them because I discovered that others have also had problems with Netflix's payments processing system, but after reading this thread, I'm thinking it is a problem with the card after all. Having said that, I have never had a problem with the card in the nine years I've been a customer of the bank.
