I’m always amazed at how people make huge life decisions, just cross their fingers and hope it works out, like life somehow owes them… and they never even think about what if it doesn’t..

Coolest sentence in this story is "I didn't have money to put petrol in my bike, because I didn't have money to buy anything in the shop".

Without retirement funds or a passive income, it's highly volatile to move abroad.

This one did have a different ending and I am very happy for him. I hope he gets back to Thailand soon.

So he brought her a house some busineses and is still sending her money? So she only has to take care of herself, she pays no rent owes nothing on those business. Yep she loves him 😂

He followed his little head rather than using his brain. Relied on luck & hope dreaming of retirement, despite not having any financial stability. This was always going to end badly. Pure luck at least that his 2nd wife appears to be supportive, that's rarely the case as soon as they get the man's money they're gone. But, then again she's still receiving money & anticipates more money will come

So they're obsessed with grey decor and furnishings in Thailand too? How depressing.
