Can gold be used as proof of funds for a Thai DTV visa application?

Ling *****

when i applied for my Non O visa through the evisa site there was only 2 options, 1. 800k THB in your bank account or 2. 65k deposits per month for 12 months. Gold was not an option and won't work.

Can an expat in Thailand get a Thai credit card or should they use a home country card?

Ling *****

i make a profit out of my credit card as I have no fees and I pay it off all before the due date. Plus I get Qantas Frequent Flyer points and free travel insurance for up to 90 days. I will never cut this card up.
