Medical costs? I mentioned the 30 baht scheme which is for Thai
citizens however for the rest of us... I take a high blood pressure
medicine, an ACE inhibitor named ZESTRIL. I pay US$ 16.66 a box. I
just had a look at an on-line U.S. shop
(http://www.fdarxmeds.com/buy/online/Zestril.shtml)
selling the same stuff for $51.20.
My wife takes a similar type of medicine Blupress at $63.00 a box at
http://www.allrealmeds.com/atacand-b...ess-p-216.html
My cost here $26.00.

Aaargh!
U wanna say you cannot afford laxative in the US???
BTW U admit you R not allowed to buy anything against Alzheimer
disease and troll addiction?
How sad for ur relatives 'n the neighbourgh in the Bangkog dock!!!

So you see, not only are your wages in the range of 25 or more times
the salaries are here but your entire infrastructure is mammothly more
expensive so any effort to compete seems to be doomed.

And I don't even want to start on the different tax burden in
countries outside the U.S.
Uhuu, especially when you're NOT on the right medication!!!!

"Rather a poor guess as I came to Thailand 40-some years ago and have
a been married to the same (Thai) woman for 42 years. Have one son, a
daughter-in-law and two grand-kids (5 & 7) and have lived in our
present house since 2526. Prior to building this house we lived in a
purchased house in the same district for 9 years and before that in
various rented houses in different towns up-country. Now that you have
given us the benefit of your brilliant and penetrating insight into
the life and times of Good Soldier would you like to enlighten us
further about things in the Kingdom?"

I feel sorry for you

I know my boat needs work I now nothing about, Its a 75 so I'm sure
nothing is like new but I really enjoy sailing it,

If you plan on selling your boat try to fix what you can, it will prep
you for your next project (And yes unless you buy new your next boat
will be a project) Even if its little fixes it still will help.

I don't like sea food so I'm for no fishing...lol (the wife would
slap me over this)

I have the perfect boat because I've been able to sail a season for
very little invested and if it works out we find something that we can
live aboard I would never say mine was a mistake by any aspect.

If you don't learn anything more then what to look for next time.
