Is something mentally wrong with you? You keep on asking the same question hoping for a different answer. Also, who the heck wants to be a Thai citizen, we just want to live here because it is cheap. Stop asking the same question, you will never be a Thai. They don't want you.
good luck, I am semi retired in my late 30s. I have been here for 2 years and see people just take the easy way out of life. I just want everyone to make sure they don't have to work hard the 2nd half of their life because they put their career on hold.
you only get 2 border runs in a calendar year and they are going to deny you soon. Also, if you don't have 500k, you need to go back and make some money. There is something call a career. Take care of it before you have your cake. Thailand is not a place to be without money.

baht a year. After tax it might be 30k. If you leave the 800k in a Thai bank, it is dead money
