It’s unlikely that you can. With 60 day exemption plus 30 day extension then a border run you’ve covered almost 6 months. Keep doing that and you’re likely to be stopped.

Look at DTV. If you can get work online then you can do the ‘digital nomad’ thing

The DTV may suit your circumstance.

I hope you’ve researched foreign ownership of businesses in Thailand because there are quite a lot of regulations.

No. Too expensive. But I have read on these pages that the agents can’t do it now.

But the Catch 22 is you can’t open the bank account on a 60 day visa exemption.

They won’t tax the 800k - it’s not income.

Not quite true. Some of us have had relationships with women we meet on dating sites. There have been a few that were only looking for money, looking to improve their lives and they weren’t bar girls.

How many times have you visited her and how long did you stay?
Ralph *******
I’m a similar age and have had some very good relationships. I now have a very sweet lady.

There are many Thai women that see farang as an opportunity to improve their lives. There are some that are looking for a loving relationship. It’s a bit of a minefield.

My advice to you is to not choose too young.
