What are the bus schedules from Suvarnabhumi Airport to Pattaya at night?

Thomas *******

@David ***********************

The best option is 140 baht bus takes a little longer that a taxi does and costs less, that's obviously prior to 2100. After that it's taxi only. Calling people idiots for answering a question you obviously thought you knew the answer too, priceless....

Can I maintain my retirement visa status while working outside Thailand every year?

Thomas *******

@Greg **********

thank you all for your answers. My SO is Lao so even if we got married it wouldn't carry much weight here in Thailand as I have been told.

Thomas *******

@Dave *********

that's what I plan on doing. My question is, since it has to be in my name only, after I pass, hopefully not anytime soon, how do my people here access that money?

What are my options for finding work in Thailand as a qualified welder and builder?

@Sophie ********

I just bought a weed eater and many tools today at Mega Home for less than the price that I could have ever approached in the U.S.. The weed eater alone would have cost more than the final price.

Google translate saves us everyday. For the pollution we go south and the heat i can't escape without leaving the country entirely.

I will add that I have no family in the U.S. and I will be happy that my family here can benefit from my hard work over the years.

really can't argue that, for me it means my retirement money goes farther and I can help my family and those around us better than I can at home. In the U.S. I would have to keep working until I died and they pulled me from the seat and put another driver in it.
