@Troy *****

because I have an injured leg ( just tripped yesterday and set myself back weeks in recovery) and getting around is difficult. The Bangkok office is quite difficult to reach. This group is supposed to be for advice…you know, RELEVANT information, not information that is of no value whatsoever to the question posed by the person asking. Thank you for asking.

You do realize this is not a school homework assignment. You’re not required to participate if you have no valuable input.

@Nick ***********

is your office CW? I stated that I’m in Bangkok and that’s the office about which I need info. Thanks.

@Roberto ********

is there an actual bank at CW? I have an injury, so I really want to make sure this is one trip.

@Troy *****

each office has different requirements. I’m in Bangkok, but thanks.

Boeing stock? (kidding!)

I would not do any of this creative investing with having “a few thousand” in savings. Schwab invested in treasury bonds is a good, safe investment with a reasonable (over 5%) tax-free return right now.

@Roberto ********

I'm with Kasikorn. They have a machine at immigration? I've never updated the book at the machine, so I'll have to try that in the coming days.

@Paul *******

first year, so that should not be an issue.

@Graeme *********

Mine is easy to add...one transfer :-)

@Kool ******

Hmmm...I've never updated my book at a machine. Interesting.
