A teenager's view of the perfect retirement life.

Or a man's view.

Sad but he should have approached this forum for assistance. I believe there is a way out for him. RIP.

If I ever felt suicidal, this forum would be the last place in which I would appeal for help. There are a number of decent, compassionate posters here, but there is also no shortage of callous, self-centred folk just as likely to tell you to go end it all and stop ruining their day.

I don't understand this type of "reporting." Might as well read:

A City In Thailand: -- A person not from Thailand was found dead in a cheap hotel in a city in Thailand yesterday in what appears to be a suicide.

Police have identified the person as a foreigner of a certain age. It is believed the person died by hanging. Hotel staff alerted police after discovering his body. Police believe the person might have committed suicide after being dismissed from a famous private school. They found the termination document inside the room. Hotel staff said they last saw the person on Wednesday.

Why was he sacked from the school. Was this the reason for the suicide.

59 years old in a foreign country with no job, probably no money and no prospects of getting either one. It might seem like the most sensible thing to do.

RIP

Huh?

I really wish these people could talk to someone before taking this option. I find each and every case very sad.

How do you know he didn't?

Sometimes talking can make you feel worse, if the therapist isn't much good!

If my life consisted of taking a different bar girl every night, I'd probably want to kill myself.

I would think that I'd already died and gone to paradise.

When you hit Rock bottom there is only one direction left and that is up. Have a little faith and ask for help.

RIP

I think 59 years in this world is long enough. I'll be there in a couple years....why go through all the BS.....

Pretty negative thinking, don't you think? I'm 59, retired in Udon, got a wonderful [pregnant] missus. I'm fit, healthy, eat great, no illnesses, Not overweight, and have enough money in Super to live a very comfortable life. I'm looking forward to 69 and then 79.

Maybe you should end It all now, thus taking some of the negative vibes out of the atmosphere.

wow... He must have had some seriously bad stuff going on. I'm the same age and in the last 12 months we lost our business due to the anti-government protests and left Thailand after 14 years. got given the big 'C' diagnosis from the doctor, I'm now speaking to my wife on the phone daily rather than after work.... Nothing has made me even contemplate what this bloke has done, he must really have had some demons in his head. RIP fella

Seriously someone would hang themselves over loosing a job??

Another sad Thai ending.

Got to be more to it than just losing a job.

My money is on his lovely teeruk left him also in the process. No money, no honey, however regardless, neither losing a job or/and a GF is worth losing your life over, not even close.

RIP

At age 60 in Thailand, you are finished as a teacher.

What was he gonna do?

Just wait til ASEAN kicks in next year. Most of the current western NES school teachers, in SE Asia (especially, in last placed Thailand), will become immediately un-employed. Start saving your money NOW! You're gonna be needing it, in the (not very distant) future. A word to the wise, should be sufficient.
