ORIGINAL POSTERI have a Thai bank account only because I have a Non-O marriage visa. It’s got the B400k but it is only for demonstrating proof of funds. I gave my Thai wife the remainder of our cash and assets so I don’t need money.
TLDR : Answer Summary
The post discusses how the individual maintains a Thai bank account solely for the necessity of having a Non-O marriage visa, mentioning the required fund amount of 400,000 Baht. It highlights their financial arrangement where they transferred remaining assets to their Thai spouse, indicating minimal personal financial needs. The comments include a mix of congratulations, humorous remarks, and prompts for clarity.

Without photos how do we know if this ham sandwhich really existed? You also gave such little detail it’s not helpful at all. Such as what kind of bread? Was it toasted? Source of the ham? Sauces? Mustard? Mayo. We need details.Jay *******
