They are hard to find. Have to look in secret places

Nice, I was going to post this also but you did a fine job of doing it for someone that has difficulty finding it themselves.

I agree, it's not for everyone but sure beats hop out, hop in. Just got back from Malaysia for two weeks, before that Vietnam for a month, Philippines for 59 days, Laos a month. Cambodia next.

Buy 2 Bitcoins, doesn't sound like a good financial plan to me.

Yup, I only put money in Wise for a transfer only so have limited exposure to belly up I hope.

What ever you use. Have 2, 3 or more ways to access your money.

Thanks for the reply. I figured that will be my next step, have not done it yet. I get a large enough Social Security amount from the USA that is more than enough for my expenses here in Thailand. I am figuring since it's a government pension and not assessed because of the tax treaty that I should owe no tax. Have to verify this with local tax office. I know I would still have to file a return which is not appealing.

Like a lot of people I have been watching and following this since the last quarter of last year. Lots of mis information out there just by reading the comments here alone you can see that. I watched two of Chris's You tube video's above on the subject when they came out and a few others. I tend to agree with no one knows for sure and wait for the Royal Thai Gazette. Even though I am retired and living here in Thailand and I planned on doing some traveling in 2024 anyways, so I planned on 179 days or less in Thailand (this is a known) with a wait and see and no tax filing in Thailand attitude for 2024. It's August 2nd now I have 58 more days to plan to be out of Thailand and hit the target. Good luck for all and we will see what happens.
