Keeping  US Number - 

      Hey  folks, coming over for good  in October - I  need a  US number for ONE reason only - 2  factor authorization!!  Literally every day,  for banking, Paypal, government, practically anything I log onto here,  they  send a text to my US number so I can log in.  Of course I will have a VPN when I arrive,  but how  do I  keep a US number [JUST to receive texts, won't be making or receiving calls with it!!]. I will keep my  phone  from here, and buy one there with a Thai number -  how can I go about making/keeping this one  as my "US phone''?  Thank you
