so presumably if they are under 50 they have a full time job ?and get two months or more holiday allowance

Or funds to enable them to not have to work ?and can then afford a long stay visa

I understand you have to stay in Thailand over 180 to be classed a Tax resident but the final details have yet to be worked out as is normal with Thai Officialdom

Having traveled back and forth to Thailand over the last 14 years I soon came to realise that if you would just send the funds you intend to spend in Thailand

Flights ,Accommodation, Sustenance et al ,immigration would be happy for you to not come at all

Best advice is to get a 90 single entry Visa in your home Country and then use 60 day Visa on entry by flying out if you need longer

You also need to be aware if you stay longer than 179 days there may be Income Tax issues to deal with
