The advice came from Krisada Sektrakul, deputy manager for capital...

To be fair, I spent £35,000 last winter so this year is cheap.  |

I don't understand your need to fly off to Paris biz class for the weekend. Fecking nutcase. It was three days in Amsterdam ya daft bastid. Cost me about £4000, but in return I celebrated my Dad's birthday with him and my Mum. Worth every penny. |

I understand why Krisada is only a deputy manager, are these amounts adjusted for inflation ?....if not then already low amounts will be lower, and further under the current "visa rules" one needs THB 65k/m or 800K in the bank So it seems Thai immigration have a better grasp on retiree finances than a deputy manager for a financial company My retirement current plan is as follows Planned out currently until aged 80 very simply = USD 960/week or thb 135k/m, this factors a bit of inflation, medical insurance etc |

Your right didnt read it properly and assumed they also meant farang retirees as well... I shall say a 1000 hail marys, and ride a baht bus with a group of Iranians as pennance for my sins  |
