of course Andy you never misread anything and are perfect! Of course he said 40k euros the first time and not the second so there is that. I guess I could have assumed the first one was correct but then you know what happens when you assume something! Perhaps in your infinite wisdom you can advise him.
If the requirements for the visa state you must show 500k baht equivalent and you showed 40k baht equivalent I don’t see you getting a DTV Visa because you don’t meet the requirements.

Do your Non-O Retirement Visa there. Figure out your money/banking situation — have a couple of available options. Get a google phone number and update your banks and credit cards with it. Do the 12 month when you get here, have opened your bank account and seasoned your money 2 months
the rules are being followed by “You People”!! Now if Thailand would actually put specific hard and fast rules instead of leaving up to the IO Who’s having a bad day and wants to impose their own guidelines then this discussion wouldn’t happen over and over again.
Perhaps you should learn to read the rules or post the specific in writing guidelines — C’mon let’s see them — The People are waiting!!
