In the past 6 years, I can't recall ever filling out any papers for immigration. Yes, I used to but it's been a long time. I'm surprised is there paper work collected at immigration?

thanks for the information. Yes, had to read into the details a bit more. It's clear now. They want you to be wealthy invested into Thailand as well. Which 100 percent makes sense.

it's all good. 😊.. it's Facebook. Sometimes the responses are for good laughs. As long as someone can provide the useful information it's worth the ask.

Yes, thinking it through the issue for me would be the Thailand Investment no matter how I look at it I'm not ready to lay those kind of assets in Thailand, would prefer to hold my assets in US. Best path for me will be retirement visas.

nothing extra for 300 baht. I assumed usual and customary, but I might be over tipping. A Thai friend of mine said the same 50 to 100 is ample.

trust the "free" cost you more, they know how to finesse it. They good. You gonna have to feed her. She will hang around as much as she can. Better find a GFE that has a full time job.

even having a girlfriend actually cost you about the same, cause she will eat for 3 people by herself. I never seen girls so small eat so much. 😃😃. Basically you need to double your expenses for GFE.

Be careful massages can be deceptively expensive. Let me tell you how. Sure 350.to 400 baht massage. Then tip say 200 to 300 baht for tip. All the sudden that is $21. But because you think it's so cheap , you get a massage every other day, where as at home you might get s massage one every two years.

Now , I didnt even add in , the persuasive young therapist that convinces you to give her an extra 700 baht tip to make the massage real good you like.

Brothe money goes fast when you are trying to enjoy yourself in Thailand. You will be surprised at all the unexpected cost.
