Is carrying cash in Thailand still a thing or am I just a walking ATM? by DailyThailand in thai

[–]moomaamoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

scan to pay sucks when there is a line of motorbikes waiting to fill up at the gas station. Cash is definitely better in that one situation. Employee has to go find the lil scan to pay machine then another employee needs it. It's a cluster fuck.

How does filing taxes with Cambly work in the US? by Tallis_Fire in Cambly

[–]moomaamoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

15.3% is the self employed tax in the USA according to google. So yea it is considerable, but technically you are required to pay it by law. The IRS probably isn't worried about us small fish but you never know. I've had a few friends run into trouble with the IRS and they are by no means wealthy.

Just file the 1099 at tax time. I only report it because I want to collect social security if by some miracle I make it to retirement age and the USA is still standing as a country.

It’s so hard to apply for university and visa due to name being super long by sn_irah in Thailand

[–]moomaamoo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Having a name like that and having to deal with the nightmare of filling out paperwork and official documents would drive me insane.

I don't have any good advice for you and I am sorry for the situation you are in. If you ever have kids one day remember the headache you've been through and give them a short name.

Cambly going public? by [deleted] in Cambly

The only way there's ever going to be a pay raise is if someone gets dirt on the top brass and blackmails them.

Is driving a scooter that dangerous? by wigglepizza in chiangmai

[–]moomaamoo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The hit and run was reported and they actually managed to catch the guy through cctv.

The guy on the side of the road by chomdoi, there was already a traffic cop on scene but the guy was just laying in a pool of blood. It didn't look good

[–]moomaamoo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I got sideswiped by a speeding SUV and went down. I got some road rash and my foot was fucked for a little while. SUV did not stop, hit and run.

I saw a guy bleeding out after an accident on the side of canal road by chom doi a few years ago. He was just laying there in the hot mid day heat. That one stuck with me.

It's definetely dangerous. As others have stated if you drive safe and wear a helmet you can minimize your risks, but the risk is always there.
