Is it a problem that ibdont hsve income now( but enougb of money from the selling of the property) to get the DTV?

Any experience?

You cannot start a Yoga Studio on a DTV as you cannot work within Thailand.

Yes, i do not want to work, i want to do soft power muay thai and in the future practice and also donsome retreats in tempels and meditation. This goes well with my buisness in Austria as a yogateacher, and thats temporal while i am in Austria. In Thailand i will not work.

No. You are applying for soft power so you need 500k baht in a regular bank account plus you can use the money from your house sale to show how you can support yourself on top of this if asked
