  • I headed over to Bangkok Soi 39. This area in Phrom Phong has incredible condos and places to eat.
    Here's a few links for my favorite credit cards. I try to check the links often, but let me know if there is a problem. If they change the offer on the card, I may need to update the link. Full disclosure, I get a few airline miles for referring a new customer. You should get the same public offer at no additional cost. Thank you very much.

    Another great video - I stayed at an Airbnb condo on Soi 39 for almost two months 4 years ago.
    I am 73 year old widower moving to Bangkok in few months. I'm not grouchy yet.😊

      Ya man. I'm not grouchy either. Life is good. Many of the grouchy types were a jerk when they were 40 years old too. They just make me feel better about my life.

    Greetings Joe, another amazing clear and scenic video of magnificent locations in Bangkok. You are correct on the use of space in Asia, very conservative. Surely Boon is well and having the time of her life in your company as well as her endeavors? You think that truck has enough mirrors, looking good though 😂? I have never seen so many electrical wires clustered together as such in Thailand, Wow. What model iPhone or Android are you using to film with? Happy Birthday 🎁🎈🎉 Joe! Thanks so much for sharing and I look forward to your next episode of adventures in Thailand 🇹🇭.

      I've edited 8 videos since I made this. I have no idea what I said was 1%. Tipping? Or, I remember saying 1% of people were jerks? I'm not sure, but I'll take your word for it. There are some real characters out there. I was a mailman/veteran. If you were a jerk to us, we just threw your tax return away. Ha Ha. Problem solved. I'm kidding of course. But, don't piss off a mailman.

      Most of that is old coax from cable TV and Internet. It's everywhere in Thailand. I've never touched it, but I think it's harmless.

      That might even be a bait and switch price. I knew a guy who was paying 220k. Many of those sites online are just trying to get a new customer. You call about the 120K place, well that's gone, but we have a few 220K to see. It's gonna be out of my price range either way.
