TLDR : Answer Summary
The discussion revolves around obtaining a 90-day O visa based on retirement in Thailand, with a requirement of 800,000 THB in a Thai bank for visa extension. Alternative advice includes considering the OA visa, which offers a one-year multiple entry option without needing funds in a Thai bank, suggesting that funds can remain in an Australian account. There are mentions of obtaining a Non-O visa while in Sydney for banking purposes prior to returning to Thailand.

Look at getting the OA Visa for retirement while you are in Australia. Gives you one year of multiple entries into Thailand. No money needs to be in a Thai bank. Keep it in your Australia bank account.
yes...in an Australian bank account.. will get you the OA Visa with 1+1 year max stay in Thailand. Many OA Visa holders to return to their home country prior to the end of the second year AND obtain a new OA visa using their Australian bank account... thereby avoiding the need for a Thai bank account deposit of 800,000 Thai baht.
