Gold price is too strong, that's the main reason. Gold is high because the USD is weak and the US economy is full of uncertainty.

weak, meek and tired. It’s embarrassing to watch a once proud nation turn into a steaming pile. No wonder millions are leaving

OP@Todd ********
millions aren't leaving it mostly illegals being deported. Perhaps Canada would like some. And meek? How? Yes we are tired. Tired of a mess at the border. Tired of the world taking advantage of us like Europe. All these decades they let their militaries deteriorate while they depended on the US nuclear umbrella.

I mean it makes sense, the Thai markets are pretty sound in comparison to the us and Europe. £1>42baht now, 3months ago it was 43.7 💪🏻🇹🇭

Ok so your rent went up a little bit if you’re converting your home currency…ok

I decided to get a few extra $ converted in my account before it gets worse.

@William **********
you can reasonably try to keep 12-18 months of expenses in Thai bank to minimize the fluctuations, but the overall trajectory for USD isn’t looking good

Try being an Aussie, only around 20-21 baht

that was the Biden admin. At least the US still has freedom of speech unlike Canadian censorship bill!Mary ********

yeah Biden had me strapped as his administration was woeful and the DEI hires kept making mistakes on my account. Trump got in and it was sorted within a month with back pay.Todd *********
@Mary *******
don’t be sad Mary. Better days ahead for you I’m sureMary ********
@Todd ********
I am definitely not sad. Trumps done amazing for me. I don't worry about the conversion rate because I keep enough in my account to wait it out and I am actually happy for the people in Thailand that their dollar and economy is gaining strength.

why do you think all the smart ones have left the country? Nice to see Marchand win a cup though as soon as he left beantown lol. Bourque v2. You can only win once you leave
Rich ************
@Todd ********
love Marchand!!!! But Canadian hockey plays have to move to the states for a chance at the cup! Last Canadian team was 1993 Montreal! I enjoy watching NHL while in Thailand it’s on while I’m having breakfast and I don’t fall asleep between periods!
