@Andy *********

the whole thing is ridiculous- thank you for a sensible response.

@Wa***

I’m not misunderstanding anything. The first response to his comment - and the same person doubled down in following comments- - directly about the cost- so for that guy, it is about money- he pounced on the cost- in an effort to discount the comment.

A suggestion was made- which is what OP asked for. Someone responded snarky and even with misinformation and that’s never been addressed. This person explained it was the best advice he had and that it was the option that worked for him. Every negative response to that has been a reach, envy - and implying that he said it was easy and available to anyone. He never said that. I look at words- I respond to words. I understood the words and the obvious salty self pity, trying to act like he said something outrageous or inappropriate- he didn’t 🤷🏻‍♀️

Is 50k really that much when you look at the value there? Is 50k honestly that much at all?? For a person with any employment at all?

It may be within reach of this OP who has the means to buy property and travel with regularity… she asked and he made a suggestion based on his experience, which is exactly what everyone else that answered did. He isn’t some villain because people want to read into it and claim it’s an oversimplification 🙄 we don’t know her status or resources. People need to grow up- he answered OP, why do people feel the need to comment on the suggestions of others? It’s inappropriate behavior and being defended 🤣

@Jet *******

all he did was offer OP another option, and state the cost. That suggestions and facts were accurate. The other commenter was highly inaccurate, but has support 🤦🏻‍♀️ 🤣 let’s ignore that him being salty and trying to make someone feel wrong ended up just exposing his pettiness. There was no discussion about the percentage of people it was available to? It was a suggestion and an accurate quote of the cost?

@Todd ********

At the end of the day, anyone that doesn’t have 50 K baht- (which was what was challenged as being incorrect info/amount and also ‘not accessible to most people’) to set themselves safe and legal in a country, shouldn’t be there at all. Ridiculous.

Only people wanting to hang out in SEA would be crying about that amount of money. It’s embarrassing. Now you’re a 1 percenter?

I feel so special to be in your orbit 🤑 🤣

I’ll just rest here and wait for the backpedaling…

I don’t know why this group is so argumentative. It’s so childish but then again as I mentioned, SEA. Most and yes, I mean most, western men in the region have a deep need to be ‘correct’. I can’t imagine that it’s not exhausting because it’s exhausting even to witness.

@Todd ********

I figured I better circle back and clarify since there was so much static passed since the original remark.

Are we really talking baht? 50k baht?

@Todd ********

why can’t it be both? 🤭 drunk, and stupid aren’t mutually exclusive.

@Randy *****

maybe she’s already married? 

What is your passport?

@Samuel *******

interesting, thanks. I’m pretty happy where I am, but I always love to be in Thailand also. 💖

@Samuel *******

but you can’t renew an Ed visa can you?

I never knew there was a real one so I’m curious 🤷🏻‍♀️
