  1. In the end as a foreigner there are no rights. Thailand is a sovereign country and if doesnt want retirees tough. That's always the risk of being of retiring abroad without any form of PR or getting a passport.
  2. Could be.... Suggestion wife was having affair with the dead man. She promises him 300,000 naht of he kills him. Man tells mother he sold some land to cover sudden cash windful.... Swiss man manages to kill the assassin. Police raid house to see if wife has 300k baht ready as payment. Just maybe....
  3. Asian purchasing decision. "What's my cut?" Chinese suppliers wil pay large bribes, Pfizer won't. QED
  4. 95% I can. But after 15 years of research in SE Asia extensive research usually naked, including telling Indonesian Chinese from Malaysian Chinese apart etc. Wife now won't allow me the practice to get that up to 100%...
  5. First financial rule of expat finance is NEVER buy property or invest in a country where you don't own the assets and have proper legal protection. Invest in your home country, just spend the income in your new "home", rent or lease a property (keep 3-6 months cash reserve locally only). In Thailand if you give money to a woman to buy a house its money gone forever. In my TEFL days, in a small town, a new farang started talking to me. Typical story. He bought his wife a house, a pickup truck, a bike... then she threw him out for another guy. Next sucker. Broken farangs are a dime a dozen in Thailand. 2nd rule of expat finance, any money "invested" via a spouse or gf in most countries treat as a gift. You probably won't see any return and are disposable. This is true in any 3rd world country. One of my ex brother in laws, a Malaysian, lost everything to a Pinoy bargirl. All men of all nations are susceptible to stupidity! Third rule of expat finance is that financial advisors abroad are all filthy scumbags!
  6. Hi first dose I had a slight fever for 3 hours. Slight ache for a day. Second dose I started sneezing, runny nose, made it hard to sleep. Also had to sleep 12 hours after that went away, ached all over and slight fever. Took a day off work. I am 51 btw. Well worth the 90% (at least) less chance of dieing from Covid19. Some colleagues got very tired and headaches and took a day off also, one had two days off. some nothing.
  7. What you didn't get the free wifi with the Bill Gates microchip in the vacvine? I did and great service.... lol
