Not at all. What's embarrassing? No idea what you're talking about. Everything confirmed with Sydney Consulate and they're the people who will issue it. I think like others you're misreading what I'm saying. I'm only talking about RETIREMENT purposes, nothing else.

I visit Australia twice a year. I'd just bring wads of cash and get my lady to exchange for Thai baht. Done deal! It's a winner!

Referring to LTR for retirees. If you re-read my post you'll see the last line:- "Dream come true for retirees". Which it is, no question about it!

Not designed for retirees but can certainly be used by retirees who want to avoid the financial criteria, and pick up other bonuses with it. Also avoids going to immigration every year, which is a huge plus

I've got it worked out from the retirement angle. Most retirees don't want a work permit. And with no financial criteria to meet in Thailand there won't be any tax liability in Thailand
