Doing Things Legally This is for people with Thai visa queries, work permit queries and queries from people wanting to start a business in Thailand. How can you make enough money to afford to live here? Will the BOI give you priveledges?

The buck was worth 39.5 baht on May 21, 2006 -- the day I moved here. If it gets back there, I'll be happy.

I hope the clusterfuck involving the Thai government continues driving tourists away.

The baht has a ways to go. The Aussie dollar has fallen about 10% against the dollar, the UK pound 13%. The baht has only fallen about 8%. It will fall when the BOT runs out of dollars to buy baht.

Oh no doubt they are supporting to what end I have no idea. The exporters were screaming as it got stronger. But they are reporting huge growth in exports, would be interesting to see where that growth is and if it's real.

If the dollar actually does rise against the baht, I might be alright, even though the won is sliding. The wife and I were talking about this last night...at 40 to the dollar, I manage to stay even to the signing of my last contract.

More turmoil is ahead...I hope it means the baht slides further. I hate losing money for no reason.

^ It was just announced Bank of America may be lining up a purchase of part or all of Lehman.

The dollar continued its upward trend today. I think tomorrow might be the day we see 35 baht to the dollar.

yep, it was the bank I was referring to

I could not say at that time, due to confidentiality stuff etc

Lehman had been trawling around Asia trying to get extra funding, and failing

The sarcasm of your post leads me to believe that I have broken client confidentiality.

Is that correct?

They are still looking for a buyer, and the US Treasury will not come to the rescue apparently, except letting the Fed provides more cash

They might go Bearn Stein,
