I'll be 50 in September. I have a pension from the U.S. military. However, I still dabble online and do webdev stuff and what not. I'm also considering taking Thai language classes. I could apply for the retirement "O" visa, but I don't want to be limited to not being able to work. Plus the 5 year length of visa is appealing. I have no problems leaving and coming back every 6 months. Hence why the DTV is appealing to me.
