  1. Let me guess...you haven't been in Thailand long.
  2. You get nothing until you decide to convert some of those USD to Baht. But then, you probably knew that already. The ignorant are the only ones that don't know the real story...
  3. You need to get that woman away from the family (maybe). I took my wife away from the village...to the US where we resided (among other places) until we returned to live here in Thailand. My wife got jobs and I made it clear that whatever money she earned was hers to do whatever she wanted. She sent some to her family occassionally, but mostly she fed her own wants and saved the rest. Upon our return to Thailand to live, she spent most of her savings and some of mine on building our first house here. Mind you she always worked and now receives a monthly check. I also give her some of mine, but I take care of us and the household, she is free to do whatever she wants with hers. We (meaning me) have never had a problem... Get out of dodge man. If she come with you, she'll love you for it. And she isn't working, then shame on you!
  4. Wait a minute...what's this about giving monthly payments to the wife's parents??? That a bunch of bunk!

  5. Hmmm. Spent the money and didn't tell you. On the other hand, you haven't been monitoring your account. I could become a victim same as you. Thanks for the reminder. I do keep an eye on things at all times - so should we all...
  6. Check YouTube...there are several videos on there one about Pattaya using the Bolt App...
  7. According to the Bolt Taxi information I just searched, you can order a ride and pay for it all through their Bolt App... Your driver(s) could be ripping off the company.
  8. You don't go into a branch to get the app. You go to the Google Play or Apple App store on your phone and download the app. Enter your account details and you're in...
  9. Some people haven't figured out that paying off your balance monthly precludes any interest charges.
  10. Please...anyone who has spent 5 minutes in Thailand knows that farmers were not the primary benefactors. People are only "out of pocket" if one invests in a market they don't fully understand...
  11. Went right over your head...it's about reducing the money spent chasing and jailing people over a drug not much more dangerous (if even) than alchohol. We're talking about millions (billions) of Baht. Oh, and let's not to forget the taxable legal commerce created. Income, regardless of the amount, is way better than expenses.
  12. Yes, you're right, but it's true. No one expresses their real thoughts and opinions. All you have to do is read the comments when someone is accused of wrongdoing... Look at the stark differences between comments about Blacks versus Whites (regardless of national origin) Asians, Muslims (from any country), Arabs, Russians... Go ahead prove me wrong. Weird, no, reality. Racist, yes, you act like racism doesn't exist.
  13. Granted, you may know where you are and what's going on around you. Weird statement - I think not. By the way, I known hundreds over the years and many are still living here...most have moved on. This is not about knowing someone for a certain amount of time. Just read some of the questions asked by members of this forum - both old expats and newbies - and you'll see that many are in fact "fish out of water." Maybe not you specifically, but many constantly can't understand that they're "Not In Kansas Anymore" or the UK or Austrailia, or Denmark, etc., etc., etc...
