It's about a knowledgeable moderator telling a poster he was full of it! Was he blunt? You bet however the posters stupid comment invited that. Blaming his Embassy actions on Thailand says it all and deserved a blunt reply .

We can do without that poster bad mounting his Embassy and Thailand but not the knowledgeable moderators on this page and I know that's the opinion of the majority and I bet you do too.

When my Embassy decided not to do the money verification I received sound advice on my options right here on this site. I implemented them and had zero problems with using monthly income. Had the poster come looking for advice he may have received some but he received what he was looking for.

@Ken ******

your opinion which is clearly not shared by myself or the majority.

@Ken ******

fantastic for sure and also a very knowledgeable moderator.

@Steve ******

over two decades here and no visa problems and I find it very simple. After my Embassy quit the income affidavits went to 65Km monthly with no problem and then to the 800K and now to the LTR. If you actually have the income this is a easy place to retire.

@Steve ******

lol with 48 years married to Thai women and never divorced. Marriage is sharing

@Joe *******

I understood you didn't and I'm also not a mind reader. Maybe that's because I have been around Thailand for five decades and us old timers had a lot of the same opportunities. There are still great opportunities here.

@Joe *******

he let us know by his comment he didnt have money then! I was in the same situation,

@Michael *******

yup. I'm on year 23 and look back at what we missed but the wife looks at what we did not miss. I'm old now but life has been good to me and I'm forever grateful.

@Joe *******

lol you have no idea as to what was available at give away prices over the last few decade's, evidently. Glad I did not listen to people like you when we moved back a couple decades ago.
