Online brokerage account in Thailand

I am having a problem with my American brokerage firm. For some reason they, Scottrade, does not want to support expats that live in Thailand, seems as though it's okay to live in China? Any Americans have an online brokerage account that supports us in Thailand please let me know. I know I can fool...

new O visa

We tried to get my Thai girlfriend a B1/B2 tourist visa to come back to America with me for a couple of months with no luck. Talked to the chief of American immigration, guy named Tim, and what he told me sounded pretty stupid. No written guidelines on questions for his examiners seems as though the...

Re: Thanksgiving

we deep fried a turkey a few years back and it was the turkey I have ever tasted. It only takes 45 minutes for a 12 lb. bird and it seals all the juices in while making the skin crusty.

Re: 90 day reporting

Thanks again all. I'll probably do the 90 day until I figure out where I really want to live. This next time over I will make sure I attend the trivia contest and meet the likes of you.

Re: 90 day reporting

so I could then just renew my visa every 90 days forever? wouldn't this circumvent the money requirements needed for an OA visa? sounds like a plan to me

Re: Where not to live in Bangkok?

The photos I saw of the condos looked decent and yes I know they are just pictures. I was hoping for some direction as to a general area to look. I am coming in January to search and start renting. Will probably be moving in April.

Re: Flight to Thailand bargains

cheapest I've found from the US Philly to Bangkok on Qatar is $1160. Qatar is the best airline I've ever flown. Even the food is outstanding and the flight attendants are sooooo hot.
