  1. you were perfectly clear but the local part is difficult (beachwise). rent a house with a private pool. dime a dozen in Patts
  2. again not local If price is no object then the N/E or N//W sections of Koh Pi Pi have what you want. You may want to ask in the Thai Visa forum (genaral topics and Pattaya section). This site is filled with folkslike me that don't have the baht for private beaches because we (I) spend all our (my) baht on thai hookers. T.V. has folks with baht
  3. not local, but, Koh Chang has that. I'm sure Koh Samet has that. Koh Si Chang (Sri Racha) may have that.
  4. Not in Thailand. Buddah is the God here.

    Dilemma?

    Sir, Since you are asking; You need to get that gal in line. How did she manage to procure your funds? " she explained that they need it " Who is THEY ??
  6. I've only lived in Thailand for 5 years. I'm slowly but surely getting over how poor most of these folks are. I used to tip 100% for haircuts ( the total price wouldstill be 300% less than where I come from). Now it's 25% (75 baht all in). I've stopped tipping at KFC (never could get anyone to take the tip). It's been near 20 years since I've seen a full service gas station in the U.S.A. . " I just tell them not to tie their shoe-laces in a revolving door. " (:
  7. My word! Pound for pound; that's almost 200% the going salary for a gal in that neck of the woods whose best option is being a maid. Don't pay that much. Give her at most 4k baht per month plus room and board. Pay her once per month. Do not give her advances in pay. Give her zero days off. If she stays for 3 months then give her a 5k baht per month for the next 3 months (25% raise). If she stays another 3 months; marry her.
  8. Did you say something? I can't stop looking at your avatar...
  9. Steak, potatos, Steak, pizza, pasta, chicken Steak, salad, Steak, S T E A K
  10. Great paint job. Congrats on finding thai men who can work hard and break little. Does the boss have any sisters?
  11. Your other option is getting a letter from your embassy stating that you have monthly income of at least 40K baht. Once you have that all you have to do is report every 90 days ( do not need to leave the Kingdom and you do not need any balance in a Thai bank).

    Dilemma?

    That's your answer Sir. All she has to do is go to the hospital in her Amphur. If they do not have the capability to treat her she will be refered to the provincial hospital. There she will get all the help she needs for less baht than a cafe latte. This is the only answer. Do you have dental insurance?
  13. I have not found a self service gas station in Thailand. Every time I get fuel I tip the person who filled the tank (weather they clean the windows or not). Usually 20 baht (65 American cents. Fuel more expensive here than in America.). The Thai gal by my side always gets on me for tipping at the gas station. Anyone else tip when someone fuels their tank for them?
  14. why dont you just quit your job and return to thailand and be with her here? You could teach english in her village and make about 30k baht per month. That's like 5 times the monthly salary in her part of thailand. Tell her all that I just told you and see what she says. Then go from there. GL
  15. sizzler is pretty good if your in the area.
  16. I'll tip when I want and I never give business to places that require a gratuity on the checkbin.
  17. Thanx; BD. Anyone else have info on residential rentals in Ubon Ratchathani?
  18. Looking to rent something in Ubon city, or near, Sept to march. Anyone with info?? Thanks in advance
  19. Sorry. No answer. 1 question though... Can farang get a mortgage in LOS?
  20. IA has a great no frills platform. This helps when your internet is under 500K and 2 seconds matter. Worst case scenario is his streaming data from E-Signal will be 5 seconds late and his IA orders will take 5 seconds to go through. IA is the best kept secret out there for folks who trade under 1,000 shares at a time. If he is only trading the NYSE he will be fine. 9:30 AM DST is 8:30 PM here. If his building is sharing bandwith then he should be good to go at that time of night. Pattaya should help him relieve some of that stress.
  21. PM Lordflash. He should be able to tell you which buildings are hardwired and which of those have the reliabli internet providors (if they exist). Often in buildings, folks have wireless routers going. You can usually piggyback off that signal for free.
  22. Is he actually sending orders to a human? That human will then send the order to the market maker. The MM will make the trade when he covers the spread over commission point. Whole lots of time there. He can send an email with a 56K source for that. Even if he is day trading on a web-based trading platform, 512 is more than enough. Which service has the least amount of down time would be the first question I'd have.
  23. It's worse than that. This guy starts 2 threads for two different questions that are already answered in the other HC/Eden infomercials in the members bar (also started by friends on the HC owners, to instigate infomercial). Shouldn't the infomercials be in the business owners forum? 3-16-07 Has anyone written about the Eden Club on this board? Evil
