Can you get the elite Visa for $4,000 a year? I thought it was flat rate 500,000thb ($16,000 approx) up front for lifetime?

Yeah I don't mess around with Thailand immigration or your going to have to deal with constant fear and hassle of payoffs.

I know I'm surprised too. Maybe don't mention those things and just say that you're here to buy a condo? And then buy their stupid insurance. I think they favor investors with money over everyone else to be honest.

I had no problem on a tourist visa. Told them I was staying for 6 months, and was looking to buy a condo. Said what do I do with all this money? I'm scared to carry around all this money. Showed them a big bag of money. They sold me some type of life insurance 6,000thb and allowed me to open a bank account. Really in the end they just wanted the money. Lol.
