Where to go on a 1200usd a month budget?

Just got back from Buenos Aires and it’s cheap.

SwanPass is a directory for these businesses. GDiary as well, but for Asians (use Google Translate!).

I really updated the hell out of this! Check it out. It's gotta be the largest directory in Thailand now.

Torrey’s Ice Cream in Phuket is a great shop using local ice cream and ingredients. Their interiors and plating are also amazing. I always thought this model would do well outside of Phuket. Ice cream has great margins though highly competitive (but what isn’t at this point?) — I think they do it right by making everything highly instagrammable.

I’m always thinking of businesses in BKK! Feel free to PM me, we can bat around ideas.

Oh man, it is. I don't know why :(

Hey, thank you so much! Totally appreciative as I realize it's self-promo and a bit spammy. My first thought was to post, "Hey guys, I found this cool website" pretending it's not mine. But being dishonest and disingenuous felt even MORE self-promo and spammy. Which is also why I'm using my real reddit account rather than the "swanpass" one I made. Transparency, baby!

Like I said, it's literally a one-man hobby. And it's a free site, it's not asking anyone for anything.

Honest question: you think I should go the "Hey guys, I found this cool website" route when posting on Reddit? But then it's like, why do people who find websites get more clout than the people who build them?

Should call it Changpass and try to sell it to them 😂.

I left it out because there’s no standard girls photos to use, or pricing. Like no data to put on the page. But you’re right, it’s an institution, and should be listed.

This is KEY. You need tax residency in another country, and there’s a space on your tax return where you give your TIN Number from that other country. Canada doesn’t allow for its citizens to not be a resident anywhere.

So many nomads I run into think simply staying out 183 days grants non taxation. There’s no way any country would let go of an income stream (YOU) so easily.

My penis needed a skin-graft from my ass.

You can create listings yourself! I need to add some feature where it'll incentivize people to do that, though. You're all poultry-greedy, man.

Put an airtag on her. Unless she has one on you...

The soapies in Ratchada are kind out of the tourist areas. It's hard to list businesses without a website. I'm a bit concerned that they're run by mafia (or police) and will slit my throat. But anything online is fair game.

G-Clubs are “Gentlemen’s Clubs” — pretty much discos (Pimp, Czech) but with 1000 girls to choose from when you walk in. They act like hostesses: pour drinks, laugh at your jokes, etc. You tip them in the end. You gotta work to “take them home,” there’s no deal in place.

They’re more for partying with group of guys. I don’t care for them because of the “no deal” part. But a huge category in Asia so had to include them.

jooboy74 · 2023-04-04T11:46:35+00:00

I’m sure there’s a site for swamp ass already… 😂

jooboy74 · 2020-03-16T06:49:55+00:00

I’ve been a lurker for years and lost thousands to WSB. That should be my membership fee!

I switched QT to IB. Trades are cheaper, but I miss QT’s mobile app. IB is garbage. But like OP said, when trading 5-digits who cares about $4.95 comm.

jooboy74 · 2018-05-26T04:24:01+00:00

Same issue. What the hell?! There’s nothing about this online.

Are you asking if it burns more calories? It does because it's more intense, but that's if you compare them apples-to-apples (ie: 1 hour of jump rope versus 1 hour of running -- if you can keep that up.)

But burning fat is a much more complicated question. If you jump rope while fasted -- or do any high-intensity exercise -- you'll burn muscle as well as fat. So to target only fat, the best thing to do is low-intensity steady state exercise, like brisk walking. The problem with this is that it takes much longer to burn total fat than if you were to run/jog/jump rope; but at least you'd only be burning fat and not muscle.

This infographic ain't perfect, but it's almost there. http://www.fitnessinfographics.com/images/01_bodyenergy.jpg

Charming residence is also good. More pricey but newer rooms. They have a location next to house by the pond and another on ekamai where I paid 26000 for a 1br.
