    Why do a proper job when you can make coin by re-doing it every few years ?

    Seeing as it’s privately owned they are only throwing money away , not making any ...

    Apparently soi Chaiyapoon is getting treated to a new surface this festive season. The iconic soi pothole is no more.

    It’s merely  taking a break .......until the holes reappear..

    A picture I wish I wasn't posting. By far and away the most polluted skies I have ever seen in my 15 years of living in Bangkok. Not sure what is going on, but since about 3pm on Wed afternoon it has just gotten worse with geometric progression. And to make matters worse, it is not a normal Bangkok construction dust or carbon monoxide pollution.....this is Beijiing like crap where you can taste the plastic particles in the air. DISGUSTING!

    Things are changing and I am not so sure for the better here in good old LOS. I get asked regulary when buying things here " Cuse me sir, you want to use True Merchant Select"?  WTF is that?  

    I was in the central the other day buying some Christmas goodies , my bill was 300 baht over the cash money I had ...but good old debt card saved the day ......some changes are for the better ....some of the old coffin dodgers need to be dragged kicking and screaming into the new millennia......

    Also a motive of the card companies. It’s so easy now to tap a card especially a credit card. Before you know it you’ve spent a few grand. With cash in your hand you know your budget. I have fallen into the trap last few months. Scratching my head where the hell did that lot go. All
    Of a sudden you get a end of month bill and boom they got you. High interest rates and forever in debt. Iv seen it happen here more and more. Debit card from your account is nearly as dangerous. Tap tap tap and suddenly your account is empty. So tap the CC and fall into the trap.
    I’m going back to basics. Cash is king.

    I hardly ever used money when I lived in Qatar , I used to have a Uber account so that’s transport covered  to the bar , and I used my debit card while in the bar ,if I wanted food I used a good delivery app that I had an account with ..I had a few small denomination notes for tips ....
