What steps should an American take to establish a food business in Thailand while on a tourist visa?
Neale *********
Mega risky difficult business to open in a city saturated by bars and restaurants already.

Better you buy some crypto currency, hold it for 10 months, make a load of monry then ditch that idea.

Should I visit a chiropractor or hospital for back pain in Thailand?
Neale *********
A cheap Charlie initial trick would be to take some ibuprofen or other inflammatory medicine regularly for one or two weeks as it might be an inflammation problem, then go down the more expensive options. I have a history of back problems and it usually works.

They said I don't need to deposit the 800k, so I can keep the money in the UK or in my business making money instead of stuck in a Thai bank account

I read a fixer can deal with the 800k deposit for you.

So i went to several agents in Pattaya and they were offering the same deal. The retirement visa fees were going to be an extra 10k
