Come to Thailand with a tourist visa.

Open a bank account.

Put 800k in a bank account and never touch it.

Go to immigration before your visa ends, extend it 30 days and at the same time change the visa type to get a retirement visa.

who knows when immigration will change its mind about the COVID visa?

There's one choice, 30 days first. Hope some other extension is available after.

Insurance is necessary for OA extensions when visa is issued outside Thailand.

Get a tourist visa. Bank the cash in Thailand. Get a NON O visa in Thailand. No OA insurance needed forever.
