Investing and math reality 101. Invest 800,000 bht at 6% over 15yr with 0 contribution monthly = 1,963,238.04 bht. profit= 1,163,252.19 bht. Now, I realize you maybe loaded with more cash than the King, or your investing philosophy is "different". Good for you!!! Others, may find it insightful/helpful to be informed/aware of the "options" based on their decisions. Does that help you understand or NOT?

mike787 Posted May 17, 2019 Share Posted May 17, 2019 5 minutes ago, StevieAus said: Use the income method instead, Compound interest is calculated by multiplying the initial principal amount by one plus the annual interest rate raised to the number of compoundperiods minus one. The total initial amount of the loan is then subtracted from the resulting value. The Income Method measures national incomefrom the side of payments made to the primary factors of production in the form of rent, wages, interest and profit for their productive services in an accounting year. ... Hence, value of national income method should be the same as the one calculated by value added method. They are mathematically inversely proportionate. NOT the same. Avocados versus Beer.

Absolutely not, just holidays and play 2 week millionaire then go back home where a dollar is still worth a dollar. I'm afraid you'll need a bit more than that for a bottle of water : The average cost of the most popular bottled water in Australia is $2.75 per litre. Therefore Australians may have spent up to $2 billion dollars on bottled water in 2015. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pravda Posted May 17, 2019 Share Posted May 17, 2019 Aussies can get a job teaching English. Put 43,000 baht a month in the bank. Get extra teaching gigs for day to day expenses.
