My ex Thai gf told me she wants me to bring her back to LA for a whole month so she can enjoy the socal life. I straight off told her I can do 2 wks max because she would bankrupt me. We broke up the next week because I choose not to be broke. So guys, don't bring your gf back to your home country. It is a lose-lose situation.
Thailand is always an exporter of goods, so it makes their stuff more expensive. A stronger baht is not good for them. Also, they are not hitting their tourism numbers this year. The Chinese economy is struggling. It is pathetic that the government has to give 10k baht starting this week to struggling individuals to simulate the local economy. For sure, I know they are selling bonds to give out the 10k per person. They are giving money they don't have in their budget.
I think you are fine with an ed visa from a university. It is the ones with an ed visa from a language school in Pattaya that would be questions. Come on, it is an open secret that the language schools in Pattaya are scam schools. Just make sure you have a re-entry permit with a letter from the school.
Like regular Thai people, they will be slow and lazy to act. The strong baht will weaken demand for condo and big purchase items. The economy is already struggling and this will send them to a recession. The need to drop their interest rate next week.
you have no idea what you are talking about. It is the opposite, it matters to the well off. If you want to buy a condo or a nice sports car, you will pay 10-15% more now compared to 6 months ago because of a weak dollar. And 10-15% for a couple million baht matters.
how do you have the heart to ask a girl to pay for things when her job pays 1000-1500 usd a month? You can easily spend 200 dollars on food at Disneyland in a day.
