Re: Rental Scam in Cha Am, Beware!!!
Kendo, Yes...really its no problem, I was angry about being lied too but the 30K baht is not sending me to the poor house. I wrote the money off the day I handed it over. I felt it my obligation to help other farangs avoid the scam. I am not the first but if we do not post these things then others w...

Rental Scam in Cha Am, Beware!!!
I pondered whether or not I wanted to post this but I felt(as did my GF) that it was important and the right thing to do to help others avoid being scammed by this couple. While I am angry about how they scammed me it is more important that this info be out there so others will not get caught by the...

Re: Living on 1000 baht per day
Thanks for everyone's candid and informative posts. I do enjoy reading them to further understand life here. Although I could go and cut and paste quote after quote(and in some cases take things out of context) I wont. I think a few of you misunderstood my post. I am saying that I find it interestin...

Re: Living on 1000 baht per day
Although this thread has gone off tangent as most do it is still offers value. I also wanted to add a couple of other comments. Firstly I may come across as bashing Thailand and quite honestly I am not. I have enjoyed a lot of what Thailand has to offer but I will not blindly sit by and agree with a...

Re: Living on 1000 baht per day
In most regions home property taxes are based on appx 1 to 1.5% of the homes sale price. So in reality if you buy now you can enjoy much lower property taxes. :). This is one of the key reasons I am moving back to California. I can have a quality home on 2 to 5 acres that is mine and I am not check...

Re: Living on 1000 baht per day
From an American perspective, 1000 baht or 2 or even 3 is a bargain. SuperJoe had it right... you must buy your residence if at all possible. Property taxes in Thailand are insignificant and unless you live in a fancy condo or live in a hi-so moobahn (or have a manicured football field for a yard, ...

Re: Understanding Thai females
One thing I've learn't recently (and maybe to my cost or relief) is that above gold, houses, SUV's and motorbikes many Thai women, especially from Isaan villages want a farang child. I've been told it means a status upgrade and more security if the farang is more than a casual partner. I've even he...

Re: Understanding Thai females
to avoid her taking it to the next level with threats or using sex as a weapon.:D. SEX......now I know that's something I should be aware of and I'm pretty sure it's something that I did participate in sometime back, but for the life of me it's such a long time ago that I can't quite recall what it...
