It used to be we could get an income affidavit from the US Embassy. That was the route I went until immigration changed the rules and would only accept the affidavit if the embassy guaranteed what was stated on the affidavit was true. Only a couple of countries do that and unfortunately the US isn't one of them. So about 6 or 8 years ago when the new rule came into effect I started using an agent to fund the 800k for a few minutes. For the 65k/month route it would be good to hear from someone that uses Pattaya immigration how that's working out for them. Everyone I know, or have read abou

For health insurance I'm with IMG. I also have the worldwide rider that includes coverage in the US. Annual premium at age 68 was $2,800 paid this month. That gives me $5 million of coverage with a $2,500 deductible. Another popular one with expats is Pacific Cross. From what I've seen, cost is about the same for almost as good of coverage as what I have with IMG. On the subject of shaving, I switched from foam in a can to shaving soap years ago as it's much less expensive. Both my Mach 3's and shaving soap are sourced from Lazada. The razors I buy from the official Gillette store to avoi

dkmotorbike is his user name on the Line app. I'm like you, I have my old tried and true methods for communicating and am loath to adopt anything new; and this is coming from a tech geek that enjoys coding and database work.

Flying a drone in Pattaya......

Another good video from this guy's channel. If nothing else, he has some beautiful background scenery. -
I'm sitting at BKK now after another safe ride with one of Nam's drivers. Excellent service. She arrived about 30 minutes early, which I appreciate as I'd rather have the driver wait for me than me wondering if they're going to show if they try to show up exactly on time. Got my first ride ever in an EV too. Her car was a BYD model.

I remember reading somewhere that tremors from quakes are directional in nature. Google AI confirmed my memory. -

There was a video posted elsewhere that showed the guy getting ejected from the cab shortly after the crane tore away from the building. RIP to the guy. -

Just a heads-up to the board admin

Odd post, I never said or even alluded to you making up or fabricating the problem? It happens that some problems are local to the user's location, which may be the case this time.
