Ok here I go
Trying to find exact post but can not find
So if My wife and I enter Thailand
And get stamped for 30 day visa
Then go get a 90 day visa
Then go apply one year
Can I do all this there in country
Or should I apply here
I here less things are asked from you
If you do it in county
And if I understand this
If I go in country and apply that way I don’t need the 800000
Not sure that’s why I’m asking
Because if I still need a big deposit
Then will just apply for 90 day
Then retirement visa
We are in our 50s
Just trying to figure out the easiest way and not huge coat out of pocket
Because if it’s my wife and I
Then I think we are looking at  1600000
also my company will still be running in the states
So I show more then enough for income for month or year
TLDR : Answer Summary

They inquire about the financial requirements, specifically the 800,000 THB deposit, and express concern about the costs involved.
