How can I obtain a DTV for myself and my wife in Thailand?

The user, who is 54 and has a pension exceeding the DTV requirements, seeks guidance on obtaining a DTV for himself and his wife who is under 50. Comments indicate that the DTV is primarily based on having a certain amount of cash in the bank (500,000 THB) rather than income from a pension. They suggest that one spouse can obtain the DTV while the other applies as a spouse. Alternatively, pursuing a retirement visa for the user and a trailing spouse visa for the wife is recommended, especially since obtaining these visas can vary by embassy.
