  1. i do believe that your original post went over the heads of the opposition . ( opposition here meaning those still clinging to the usual "news' "facts" .) Thankfully even this forum has shown that sooner or later other views will get out, and also many members have seen with their own eyes what is happening . And being such kind and loving souls ...... are graciously stepping to the side to let the crowds of booster seekers be assured of a place in line .
  2. Not as simple as "just going to land office" and making a usufruct . They can deny it or charge a fee ( percentage of the land value) .....depending on circumstances and/or their "discretion" . NR .... you really should consult me ...... my fee is exactly the same as the value most people put on my advice 😅
  3. soi 3 and SRB have "learned" ...... and i guess i have as well . our comments are not those of "bitter old men" . just maybe trying to give real life examples , from which we (hopefully) learnt . don't think any of us will be taking the leap off any tall buildings ...........
  4. be cautious....very cautious . very famous book called " A KILLING SMILE " .
  5. All these "BEST LEGAL" ways to do things are only as "best" as the family you marry into , and the moves you make accordingly . Those with success stories almost always use their critical thinking and experience in making good choices. Much more so than those thinking the law or lawyer is on their side. Many stories on thaivisa if one has a month or two to read them all .............
  6. by the way..... my gf has a lovely house here in Doisaket that she wants to sell . i will gladly sign release of usufruct for any of you rich guys . (only bad air a few months a year ) 🙂
  7. " With the exception of being in control of selling it........ or, as i have stated, "kicking" your legal wife/ husband out without a legal judgement .
  8. i don't believe you can kick your Thai wife out ....legally . Just as the wife can not kick her husband out if a legal marriage registered in Thailand . Maybe best NOT to get married, but get a usufruct (for life) on the title deed (if allowed by the Land office) . uhhhhh like i have but i have no illusions about what difficulties there would be if i wanted to kick the "owner" of the property off the land 🙂
  9. not really correct . the property ( and house if it has one) is legally his to USE . ( and in effect, if not reality, control who lives there and what can be done on the property ) . and YES, it can not be sold without him signing the agreement at land office to REMOVE the usufruct . HE CAN NOT SELL THE PROPERTY as he is not the owner . period as for the other point ..... do not think someone can buy the property until his usufruct is removed ( and who would anyway ) . But MY EXPERIENCE here in CM , and also in Lamphun province, is the head of land office immediately says that FIRST the usufruct must be rescinded by the person before any sale can take place . What lawyers can or can not do ..... who knows ?? Money changing hands unseen can accomplish much .
  10. we had some business here for many years..... but not anymore. actually like our house , but yes. the bad air forcing me out . Like to be outside .......... so going down to coastal area somewhere .
  11. I have heard from another guy living here that there was someone ..... sounds like Paul .... so i will contact him . also, you are right..... not fun playing realtor , but in my experience "good ones" are not..... good . 🙂 even one that comes "recommended" sometimes can be a big disappointment .
  12. good idea to tell and show everyone . you never know , and actually i only got one buyer from a facebook posting .
  13. After a hundred years ( slight exageration ) living around CMai I also am selling . I have sold some properties before , using online forums or word of mouth . My ONE agent experience was NOT a good one , very little done but they did have a three page contract i had to sign. I stopped that at expiration date ! Facebook forums would be ok BUT agents are posting continuously their stuff. By day 2 your listing will be on page 20 . And yes, agents will call you . Still, worth posting on various groups . Anyone interested in a 2 1/2 year old strong house , about 110 sq mt on 178 dw of land in same general area as Luang Neua ..... Doisaket .... can PM me .( price around 3.5 m) I also have experience (buying and selling about 6 properties over time ) and can answer some questions regarding usual things one might encounter in sales/ buying . (NOT ADVICE ... just my experiences ! )
  14. Interesting that this "procedure" hasn't seemed to change over the years . It was twenty odd years ago when i rounded up two neighbors i barely knew ( can you help, i need two witnesses to go to the Amphur with me to vouch that i live here) . they were a little hesitant, but off we went in my car and all was done with no problem . I lived in that location and was friendly with them for a long time ( some gift baskets at Christmas once in a while ) . that yellow book, which some on here think has "no use" ...... saved me the hassle of dealing with immig. asking for the proof of address each time i renewed my drivers license . And, once or twice at other times .........
  15. always all this bickering, bickering, bickering . and the results are in !! not one of the stuck to their computer warriors has yet to change their stance or source that they believe gives the TRUE facts . ah..... but go ahead boys . the high school bell never rings here on our favorite lunch room
  16. and.......... big, big corporations and tech monopolies
  17. yessir . when confinements and strong mandates put many humans on a downward spiral , it was for others the dream they had always ( well, since early fantasies of fame and power ) hoped for. Locked in prisoners with nothing to do but cruise the forums looking for a creative outlet for their meaningless existence . ooooops , a bit harsh there Rumie . And so . the explosion of online shopping and home delivery gave a certain group of closet warriors the greatest gift of all . Freedom ! That's right , the freedom to not have to compete in the real games of life , where honor and respect are gained by deeds performed with one's unique set of abilities and dangjai ( nah, don't learn thai . pfffttt ) . "rumak, what you goin on about ? mate . " ........ "sorry, what was the topic again ? .... these CM pm2's are doin a number on me "
  18. I am absolutely thrilled to have two of the greatest forums , not just in Thailand but worldwide ! ... joining forces, mods holding hands and doing sacred rituals to enhance their powers of perception of good and evil ( posts ) . Seriously , for an old, bitter man like myself......prone to outbursts of" NOT SO ! RED BULL ! " and other tin hat theories that have no place in a free world .... This will be a blessing . No longer will i need to put energy into two different media legends to receive that vaunted vacation to solitude island . NO sir . Now, just one "misinformation" required to be given a firm reminder . NOTE: To start off the new "union" ...... all members shall be required to undergo a .....uh..... little quiz ( for placement purposes only) . All will be given this Rumak post to read and then answer a simple question : Was it a. inspiring and honest b. typical far rght Trump hogwash c. slightly tongue=in=cheek d. duh ( emoji, emoji ) disclaimer: i have yet to peruse the new rules and guidelines , but i am sure they will be just as fair and impartial as they have always been . Viva la union ! Onward thru the fog..... and may all hold their members high in the glory of a new chapter for mankind.
  19. Nightime dribble, dribble ( and i am not playing basketball ! ) Don't want to take meds ( though i am sure many of you will comment) . would like some stinging nettle USER REVIEWS 🙂
  20. Exactly the same amounts that I give to my wife . I wonder why I don't get the same terrific response ??😇
  21. You have pretty well described the exact procedure (s) I go through . Youtube has plenty ( too much really) of ideas, but i'm sure you have a few favorites to check out when needed. I always get a kick out of the overweight housewife in her dining room trying to show the correct way to fix a herniated disk.... or some such thing ! Very importantly , in my case and i think many other "seniors" . is establishing which body functions are not producing what they did at early and mid life. For example , why vit D supplementation, and magnesium, and collagen etc are so important as our body produces less as time goes by . ( of course, this is a simplification of a .imo, vital if not foremost reason for our bodies degeneration ( hope i die before i get old 55 ..... well, that didn't happen so i guess even some ageing rockers are now going "healthy" . As you wisely state ..... DISCIPLINE is the key . And it seems that key seems to have been lost many moons ago for the comfort seeking homosapien race . Just give em a bag of fritos and one of those hypnotic devices glued onto everyones hand . btw: what is your age ? i will be 74 in a few months . ( i don't believe it !!! )
  22. Did the BKK doc give you instructions and time needed to get healed before playing football ? Do you find fault with any of the consultations/recommendations which you feel contributed to your worsening condition?
  23. i believe you are one of a small number of poeple that try to find the source of the knee ( and other) problems , and then work at finding what works best to alleviate the pain and regain normality , as much as possible for your condition. The average "expert" , no matter what credentials they flash, do not lead me to blindly following their "this is what it is, and this is what you must do" . Note: i have remained quite healthy , with many challenges to tackle, IN SPITE of receiving many varied suggested regimens . Mostly R and P . ( rest and pills !) Anything resembling getting to the root problem has mostly been ignored or misdiagnosed. ( and i have been to numerous "orthopedics" in the CM area over the years) . The average "consultation" almost always gets a cursory movement of the troubled area, a quick analysis starting with " i think you have ......" , followed by trying to sell me 3 packages of colored pills ( always paracetomin among them ! ), and of course some latest anti-inflamatory drug . "come back if you don't get better " .... Of course, now that i am older .... the standard remark is that we all age and have these "arthritic type pains ) . What they don't know or say is that there are many, many types of arthritis ... and in the case of the knee... a ton of factors that could be involved : https://orthoinfo.aaos.org/en/diseases--conditions/common-knee-injuries Since i look in very good shape, and have strength in my leg ( relative to other old farts) ...... they basically give me a thumbs up and say " take alleve, be careful with diclofenac ( does work for me, but not good for the body ) . blah blah blah times up. Sure could use a basketball players orthopedist to tell me what the real cause is .. maybe i will start a Go Fund me hahaha ligaments, bones, meniscus, deterioration, tendons . How to figure out the inner workings as time wears the body down . Diet, exercise, suplements, stretches, and lets not forget standing on our heads and rubbing crystals. and, a bit of laughter never hurts either..... btw: i walk a bit, stretch a bit, stationary bike a bit , take magnesium and boron, and collagen ...... don't eat crap , .... doing the best i can 🙂
