there's no benefit of moving to western countries right now. Besides the fact that maybe an older foreigner could give her a better life, maybe he'd treat her better than most Thai men in her age range?

Love and respect. Lots of thai men aren't very good to their ladies. Older foreigners are more likely to be good to them.

Should I transfer $3,000 to Thailand now with the exchange rate at 35.48 or wait for a better rate?

James ************

I've never traded FX. I trade crypto and a little stocks. And pushing a small group like this for an agenda to make gains on forex trades is comical. It takes hundreds of billions to move it. I was just giving honest advice. I exchange what I need to make it. And when I see large spikes in the US dollar I exchange larger amounts.
