Pattaya - The Ultimate Trading Location

Quote from colonelangus:

On a 1-10 .............


Bangkok = 9


Chiangmai = 7 (i am an eater and BKK has 10 for every one restaurant vis-a-vis with Chiang Mai and is just much more cosmopolitan with so many more options for everything...IMHO



nice to get a counter opinion - thanks colonel. :)

3. don't know but deadbroke saying chiang mai down 35% sounds reasonable and i think he is comparing to the winter of 2007-2008 as december 2008 was unimaginably dead and much moreso than a month ago. at least, that was when we flew in there to circumvent the airport troubles in bkk?

4. in BKK, i had a really nice place, 2/1 85 square meters, on the 30th floor, marble floors and view, for 25k baht per month in walking distance to asoke station(now might be 30k). recently saw a place for 40k at the legend on sala daeng, new place and close to 100 square meters.
as we are only there half the time now, we have a quiet place a 10 minute walk to lumphini subway station for 9000 baht per month. whilst not what i would call "nice," have good internet and convenient to the city yet quiet in the jungle. google earth it and you will see what i mean, as many trees as the everglades.


3. You assumed correctly. (2007-2008 comparison)

But there is a bigger force/rationale at play ... IMHO + IMHO

worldwide bearmarket since Jan 2000 is still in force, so with this as a backdrop despite stock market rallies, the fact on the ground is upsloping drying up of DEMAND, job/credit scarcity and therefore tightening of the wallets. Businesses disappearing is not a subtle sign anymore.

4.

3-bedroom 2 storey, huge yard with fruit trees, unobstructed view of mountains, meadows, semi-olympic swimming pool within a 15 min. walk, ditto for gym., stable, reliable internet connection, pindrop silence = a boon for thread title (ultimate trading location) = peace and quiet to trade (= lose), think, formulate, write etc. :) :D

rent/month (furnished) = 8k Baht = $230

peace to all
:D

Dosent Dr Doom have a house in Chiangmai?

I love thai food but the thai girls look just plain awful


6 houses down the hill (60 metres away)


Thai girls look awful? :D :D

You see 2 pics of the ugliest souls and ..... ?

strictly non-hooker, northern elegant antelope, age group 20-30, requiring moderately tough closing, is the preference of this lion who still prefers to hunt for the soft stuff, though currently off the prairie by getting nailed real good by one such softie. But if ever single again, this is my preference, whether I'll be able to close or not due to older, dumber and slower ... :D

There is no shortage of them ....

nice photos man, you should post on the "daily hottie" thread. are you a "maeng daa"/pimp to supplement your income as a trader or at least pay your super inexpensive rent? if so, and you may give an ET member discount(on account of 95% of ET members being losers, or so go the stats), PM me.
actually, better not, my suspicious wife has all my passwords and will remove my member and feed it to the ducks in lumphini park faster than an auctioneer on crack (or Ben Lichtenstein)can say "bobbit, bobbit, bobbit":D
good luck trading today/tonight!!
 
Great place for a holiday if you're single. Good hotels, food, shopping, pussy etc.

Having said that - it's a shithole of a town (but that adds to its charm) with some of the lowest life you could ever imagine seeing, and I'm talking about the western men.

Think nasty ink
nasty football shirts
nasty accents etc

Yes, most monger destinations attract the cream of the crop expats!
 
The one thing that must be realized is that every country in the world, besides the United States, is a mongering destination. In fact, you can drive to Canada or Mexico and get the same experience. The United States is the only place in the world that truly frowns on prostitution. Everywhere else its like a joke.

The land of freedom is never truly free. You cant simply do whatever you want.
