You could go to the thai consulate in Lao and get a 90 day single entry Non-O visa based on being over 50 (retirement).

It would require you showing proof of 800K baht or the equivalent in a bank account, a medical certificate and a police background check.

You can get it at either thai consulate in Lao, Savannakhet or Vientiane. It costs 2000baht.

Once you have that you could come in, get stamped in for 90 days and then when that runs down you could go to the immigration office in your area and apply for a yearly extension of stay by meeting the proof of funds and providing the documentation they require,
