Sad story for sure, and as someone who lived in Bangkok at that time I know of this stuff very well. As for me, I would say NEVER fall for ANY woman in Pattaya, the whole place is like that. Go for fun, never love. As for me, I married an Amazing Thai woman I met in Bangkok. She was finishing getting her University degree at RMUTT. She was also working as an English teacher in an after school program at the same time. Her father was a monk from a Chinese Family, and her mother was Thai. She was stunningly beautiful inside and out. To this day I feel like I hit the lottery. My wife NEVER wanted anything to do with my money, we have a son. And we moved back to America together. I did pay a dowry. $15,000 USD to marry my wife, as is the custom with a good family that raise a good woman. She was an amazing wife, and mother. Wise way Beyond her years, with the kindest heart. Sadly last year I lost her to breast cancer. But we both truly loved each other, and it was the best relationship of my life. I just wanted to say that even with all the bad stories, of Thai women, I want people to know, there are very good Thai women also. And as an American, I can say "Good Lucky" finding a relationship like I had with my Thai wife in America. Not sure if I could ever fall in love again. But I never known what the real feeling of a soul mate was until I met my wife. But my biggest advice to anyone going to Thailand looking for love, is to know their culture very well, and be a good communicator with patience, understand the things you think are just normal in your culture, are not in Thai culture. Knowing her culture well, and being well read is a big key to help you. Funny but after coming here to America, my wife never wanted Thai girlfriends. She felt the Thai girls living in America that she met where all bad women. Most ex hookers, or that type. Thai women who did not even know my wife would meet her, and ask how she hook me, and ask for advise to help girls friends or sister to get American husband, like my wife was an ex hooker who tricked an American. It would really piss her off. She very quickly my wife said "I don't need any of these Thai girls as friends" I felt sad about this. But that is a good Thai woman.
Good story, I know many stories like yours here in the states, and I think it can happen, but let's face it, the minute guys get off the plane play and pay is the name of the game, results are dum and gloom, with pleasant stories of lust trip object is done until next time, and next time
RIP Thomas. Sounds like he had worked so hard over the years only to be hard done by. Thanks for sharing Peter, hopefully this will be a wake up call for other guys.
Gee, that really escalated quickly at the end! Was not expecting that. The moral of the story is ... become a UK taxi driver with a council house, but don't buy a bar in Thailand.
A divorced sixty-year-old man travels halfway around the world and starts a relationship with a woman one-third his age, hands her all his money, what could possibly go wrong, ha, ha.
You have a gift in telling good stories Peter. I enjoy them even though most are on the down side for us farangs haha, Love your channel, stay safe my friend!!
OMG..... Peter, this is a very sad story .In fact it's frightening me . Thomas was a great guy , worked very hard all his life .He didn't deserved all this .....a very sad ending ,indeed. Thank You Peter for another excellent video. You are a very good story teller and a pleasant English language speaker !
If you have been cheated to the point of suicide, taking the culprits with you seems like a _thoughtful gesture_ towards all the other good people out there. Just sayin...
After a 1.5year in that same mould I feel myself trapped in that grey zone between the ultimate last chance to live my love story or become a member of that flying club. Very suicidal position. Bitter moon is shining above. My story would be soon on your screen ~
Too sad of and end for Thomas. Sorry to hear about such a nice dude. I hope many guys can learn from your videos to avoid these pitfalls. Thank you Pete!
Excellent story , good lesson about reality in Pattaya .... never underestimate the " creativity " of these girls. thank god I have done my "research" before moving there .....
Never underestimate the power of Puddy. Like Mick said in the Rocky movie women can weaken men and make them think with the wrong head I was with my Wise Old Irish friend we were drinking in a bar two guys started fighting over a woman my Irish friend turned to me and said would you look at those two damn fools fighting over a little bitty piece of the Puddy.
Bloody hell! This was more engaging than a Hollywood movie. Honestly, I don't know whether to feel sorry for or angry with Thomas but I ended settling for angry. I know it might appear insensitive but I actually feel very very angry at him after listening to the story.
Thanks for sharing.Very sad ending to this story but people need to hear all sides and angles. A legal concept exists that is useful for property ownership in such markets. A company is created that owns the assets (property, house, flat, land, lease to a shop or bar etc), the business (bar, B+B, hotel, shop, car rental or whatever), operates it, pays taxes and all other dues. The owner, shareholder and director of the company is the guy from abroad therefore remains in control of the capital and the business. This structure is 100% legal and widely used. I mention this so people like this gentleman knows, hopefully they hire a lawyer to set it up for them. My motto is trusting is good, only trusting yourself is even better. Dare I say had this gentleman deployed above legal structure, he would be healthy now, had his business, maybe even wealthy and his woman by his side (with a bit of luck). If he wanted to be decent and generous by her, he could have given her a percentage of the business as they would have worked together to build it up from scratch but he would have kept the property lease within the company and 100% in his own control, but of course events took another course and proved fatal in this case. If people learnt to separate relationship from transactional sex, if they accepted that in Thailand they only find transactional sex and nothing else, we wouldn't hear such sad stories.
@@ThailandBound so, I have question for u. I met a small town girl that has all the aspects of a good girl. I really low balled her and asked would she live w me for 8,000 / month. She told me that she made 15,000 a month... but she said, she'll do it, cuz she wants love... cuz she's had bad relationships. Now, u said, a a good girl would never accept money. But she's willing to do half of what she makes, if that story is even true. Would u consider her a good girl or a part time freelancer? Keep in mind, it was my idea to pay her. And I purposely picked her cuz she's not beautiful... just average. I wanna live w her for 6 months, then leave. That's our agreement. Will she do something nuts like kill me in my sleep with her brother? I've already told her, I don't have much money. I've also told her - this is not a love thing, this is a deal for beach company. She 26...im 36. What's ur opinion?
I recall you recently retold this story, but it was the very shortened version, though nontheless impactful. It was interesting to hear tihs story again in the full version. It's a tragic story and, at the same time, serves as a chilling warning.
I’ve heard of men protecting themselves against financial loss by “gifting” 25-40% of their home to their parents (provided you can completely trust them and they fully understand the terms of this arrangement) as a means of insurance in case things go sour with you and your wife ( weather she be foreign or local). That way they gift you back that portion of your home once the divorce is well and truly settled ...
Such a sad story I wonder if the lady ever knew what Thomas's end would be. I hope she did know that way she would have to carry the guilt herself. Thank you for sharing that story with us.
Great Blog, I hope it saves a few other men from getting sucked in by these woman. There should be someone standing outside the airport handing out one of the books that have these type of stories in them. I know of a man that is getting taken for a ride right now.
Great video I've been going pattaya over 20yrs Many girls I know as friends work in the mall in the daytime And walk beach road at night to freelance Many men think the ones in the mall don't go with clients But it's not true Yes there might be small percentage that don't work at night Thank u from New York city
Peter, I'm a huge fan of the "love stories" on this channel. This should be mandatory viewing for single men, age 50+, contemplating a visit to Thailand to run the bars. All potentially "handsome men" be forewarned!
Very bad Karma for those two. People think they’re getting away with something, but the law of Karma, or as you sow, so your reap, will catch them. The pay back is X10 which can take many forms. This law applies to everyone. So they will pay dearly
Love your comments. Been there done that then I meet my wife just a local girl from the north. Had schooling now me and the family are family. Not only that she takes care of me more that’s more than I could ever see. She was nothing to do with bars.my wife never drinks. So don’t give up hope that you could meet the girl of your dreams
just come across your blog peter and find it very informative for people who have recently started visiting Thailand, after living here for over twelve years with my Thai partner who was a bar girl when i met her and living with other ex pats who are having long term relationships with ex bar girls it can sometimes work out if its friendship and companionship your looking for but like you i have heard many stories of tales of woe but there are many falang living contented lives up country with Thai partners whos voices are never heard in Pattaya or Bangkok bars but some very interesting comments on here
Thank you for this very interesting story. I really enjoy it. I hope that others going to Thailand for the first time will not fall for the same thing. I have families in Thailand and I've been there several times. There are many good Thai women but you have to know where to look and be realistic about your expectations. A good one is not going to ask you to support her unless you already married her. That's not normal. They would be too embarrass. Just don't let the outer appearance fool you because there are good and bad people everywhere.
It is really good story it is sad but it is educational like you've said you should not judge a book by its cover. Thanks a lot. I really wish bad luck to that destructible girl and her disgraceful friend.
Hi Peter, I’ve been a long time subscriber to channel and I’ve. I’ve heard all your stories, but I must’ve missed this one……….. I would imagine it up in a very hard story to reach out because I can assure you it was a very hard story to listen to, and I felt so sorry for the poor guy, and obviously his children back in the UK and some it was very shocking I wasn’t expecting that sort of end, but it is reality and you know I salute you for reaching out even though it must’ve been hard for you to do so special someone you know…….. now I’ve been told by many people and listening to your channel but it’s not a good idea to buy properties with Thai girlfriends because of the reason you’ve just explained, but then someone said if you buy a condo it’s different you can have a condo in your name if you’re a foreigner, is that true?
Yes that's true as long as the ratio is no more than 40% foreigners to 60% Thai in one block I don't know if they actually enforce that because it seems to be a lot of foreigners in some blocks a particularly around the Sukhumvit area but that's the law anyway
I can't believe what Plaa did to Thomas. Biggest mistake is to ever purchase anything there. If you want to live there just rent. No headache and it's cheaper. Love your. . Peter your content is great. 90 percent of us love your channel and content so keep them stories coming! Will be coming ro the diamond jewellery exhibition in Bangkok on Sept so I hope to see you if possible
Hi Peter I have watched several of your videos & most of them show how mainly English blokes get conned & ripped off by these Thia girls & I can understand why because lots of them have lovely bodies & are beautiful looking girls & men of all ages fall for their lies. It reminds me of some different event that happened to several friends of mine but hearing their stories before everything went wrong for them. One of them a good few years ago now had the same sort of experience that you have described in as much as he went there quite a lot & met this girl several times & as far as he was concerned she was okay & you can probably guess the rest. As he had been there several times with her & he fell for her lies & like in this story I have just been watching of yours. They planned being together full time & she agreed that she would like to come to the UK & they would get married, then came the usual excuse that she would need money to send back to help keep her parents as they were getting old & needed help with life in general & that is why she worked to send them money but if she stopped working & came to the UK she would still need money to look after her parents (& all these stories end up the same). It seems to me to be that its a general story used to conn the British guys for money as it always seems to work. Anyway to cut a long story short he gave her a load of money & I can't remember how much so he could come back to the UK to sort out a home for them for when she would fly to the uk, which he did. Then he contacted her as he did regularly & arranged & paid for her flight to the UK plus he sent he a load more money to keep her so called parents comfortable when she left & she wanted enough money to put in a bank account she had set up so her parents could draw from it to have regular food & what ever they needed. So he did what she said & asked for giving him all the bank account details so he could transfer the money & as you can guess she never heard from him or saw her again & ended up losing several thousands of pounds. The second one was more recent only a couple of years ago, a different friend of mine who had his own business in computer programming & did quite well, then like a lot of English blokes had problems with his wife so he decided after making lots of enquiries about work in Thailand on computers & setting them up & programming them & was told there was loads of work out there for him & he should be able to earn good amounts of money so he decided to go there & see how things were. So he gave everything up here & went out there & he liked it & set up business out there. Then once he was earning good amounts of money he got tempted by these lovely looking girls & I must admit he loved the company of beautiful sexy girls & gradually he got involved with some of them & you can guess the rest . They ended up conning him out of his money & business for more or less they same way most of them do & has ended up with nothing & not even enough money to come back to the UK & recently I have not heard from him & would not be surprised if he joined the flying club as you call it because he realised what a prat he had been letting his cock rule his brain & lost everything to these girls getting depressed & did not know what to do. The amount of these girls out there that do this to older english blokes there must be a lot of these girls that are very rich & I can see why they all do it because they must know that the english blokes are an easy target.. So I will stop now & will look at many more of your stories & I am surprised that a lot of these girls don't get murdered because of what they do.
More man from America Australia Germany and Belgium get ripped off how many more times than English guys the only reason that so many English guys feature in my stories and because obviously being English myself I knew a lot then
It seems like a common belief, in recent years, is a girl with a college degree is a good one. Like they are in a different class of people. Truth is you can't judge a girl by her level of education. A lot of girls earn their way through university on their back. Often times they get a farang boyfriend to pay for university, along with maybe a new house for mom and dad. Once she's gotten every penny the man has, he's shown the door. I've seen this time and time again. Guys think just because they meet a girl outside a bar it must mean they are in a different league and can be trusted to do the right thing. The best way to get a laugh out of a group of expats is to say, "I'm lucky, because my girl isn't like all those other girls. She's special!"
Good point mate, but the sugar daddy thing with uni student girls happens all over the world. Most of the time it’s a better option for girls than whoring themselves to different men every week . At least that way they can bring the man home to the parents and keep up the veneer for both parties ;-) . He’ll pay for her phone/ internet , help out with university fees, some money for clothes and give her some petrol money. But you’re right, when the man’s down to his last pennies he’s shown the door and the cycle begins again. ;-)
So true , 2 uk guys i personally know supported their spanish gfs through college/uni. as soon as the girls became financially independent the guys were dumped !
@@rassyconkerhead5548 Moral of the story: You can sexually exploit poverty-stricken young women to your heart's desire. Just don't go into business with them.
This is really sad. If i wanted to form a long term relationship with a Thai girl (which I don’t because i’m happily married to one) I certainly wouldn’t go looking in Pattaya. As you say many of the girls working in the markets and malls there are also on the game and if they aren’t they ALL know what the score is with the male farangs that flock there in their thousands and what is to be ‘expected’ of (from) them. Once a girl has left the village and hit Pattaya (other locations in Thailand are available) they soon become corrupted by their co-workers and the farang wallet. On the other side of the coin, i have seen on numerous occasions so many loud mouth, ignorant, hideous drunken foreigners treat girls appallingly so they too must have their own fair share of horror stories. You can only imagine the stories some of those girls could tell. It’s all very sad. So sorry to hear about your friend here.
I think people like yourself who are experienced with Thailand and won't fall for these kinds of girls that guys going on holiday for the first time don't know anything about the bars and are very susceptible
@@ThailandBound oh yes, it’s certainly a challenge to step back and walk away when the pretty girl is tugging at your heart strings. I’m not made of stone, I know just how it can get to you. Your channel is good to point out all the pitfalls to potential first timers but for every one that watches your posts (and hundreds of others on the subject) there are thousands - no millions - that haven’t and enter the place like a lamb to the slaughter. Like i said though, its not just one sided. some guys are just nasty pieces of work, maybe because of their own bad experiences in the past or maybe because they are just not nice people, but then I guess that goes for folk and places the world over. To me Pattaya is just a fun city. Playtime in between work, that’s all. Have your fun then go back to work. Easier said than done -.even for the more experienced traveler. I once read somewhere if you’re ever on a train to heaven and it stops in Pattaya, get off! - just don’t miss the last train home. 😉
Bitcoin is defying all laws of nature and TA in this new era with many speculations and many predictions gone wrong, it's outrightly wrong to just sit back hodl and wait maybe incur some losses along the line, that's a wrong mindset for an investors because as an investor finding ways to always increase and stack up more coins thereby making profits should be the way of life, even experienced traders are in doubt to take long or short position. People who invested in Bitcoin at the beginning or even in 2013 or 2015, when Bitcoin was crashing, have now become millionaires.

My now Thai wife and I went to Pattaya for a couple of nights( She only wanted to do a day trip) anyway after the first night she wanted out of there, she said to me Honey I'm disgusted how my fellow countrywomen behave, the sight of 70-80yo men walking around with 20yo women wasn't a good sight either, my wife comes from a very wealthy family, I actually met her here in Australia in 2012, she had already lived here for 3 years on a Student visa, she is very well educated with 2 masters degrees, we have been married almost 7 years, she now works very hard in the ICU of the local hospital and is 100% committed to me and our marriage, her family treat me as one of the family, never let us pay for anything, I remember 2 years ago us taking my Sister in law and brother in law to Tasmania for a weeks holiday, we paid for the trip, when they were going home before they went through immigration they gave us 1000AUD for the tassie trip I refused to take it, after much protest I took it, can't win with her family, have to come up with some ingenious methods to pay for things(and we have although very rarely) there are good Thai women out there, so sorry for Thomas, as you said he should have just gone back to the UK.
Places such as Pattaya are not a true reflection of regular Thai Society, unfortunately some foreign holiday makers never venture out of these types of locations and as a consequence they have a very foggy view of Thailand.
@@ThailandBound Most definitely, but I have made some great friends in Patong including an Expat Brit and Swiss who have been happily married to Thai women for many years, but they are closer in age to their partners and very faithful, also 2 Thai brothers that own a Motorcycle themed restaurant, bar and Hotel that would give you the shirt off their back. There are some lovely places in Thailand to Visit, apart from Phuket, there is Chiang Mai, my wife's hometown Phetchabun is lovely, Pai, we did a 10 day road trip with the family from Chiang Mai around the"Golden Triangle" a must do!!, Krabi, Phang Nga etc, there is lots I havent seen over to the east of Bangkok.
my first time i went to thailand i was amazed..havent experienced anything like it..started seeing this girl..and chatted to her when i went home..when she started talking about her sick mom and money..being from south africa i immediately told her goodluck with her mom.and deleted her number and blocked it....but i also know guys who fall for these girls stories.real sad story about thomas
@@thegormlesstwit849 not really I could see through them and I've never been vulnerable or lonely. A lot of these guys who fall in love are very lonely guys or they might have just come out of a very messy divorce thankfully I haven't been in their position.
Yes I want a Thai partner but I would never put anything in my partners name, I would keep my savings in Australia, and if I buy something like property / condo it would be in my name only. And have a backup plan for Australia if things goto shit. I think you have to do a complete risk analysis in everything you do when marrying overseas or going overseas.

I felt quite bad for Thomas at the start of this story. Why are scenarios such as this one so common today? Thankfully, Thomas made the decision to change his life for the better. Hurray for Thomas!
@thailand bound, try making and collecting videos about Thai ghost stories. I am sure many South East Asian people will want to hear more about that. =D
Just wondering how come I can see my comment right away after I post it... Is it hidden so other can't see my email address? I know you said it would, but I didn't think I could see it right away...?
The email address you sent me bounced back? It had a capital H at the beginning so I tried that and with a small h they both bounced back. You need to check the spelling of the email address you left for me.
Never, ever, sell your assets back home to fund anything in Thailand. It is common knowledge that you only spend in Thailand what you are willing to lose, and that includes money spent on women. I have a Thai wife and we have been together 6 years. All my assets are NOT in Thailand and in my name only. She will only get some of it when I die, and since I take good care of her and she is a "good girl" (tm) hopefully she will not get any funny ideas about hastening that event. My main worry is that once she starts talking to other Thai women they can become corrupted and get bad ideas.
One aspect that perplexes me is the apparent absence of legal safeguards adopted by Western retirees in Thailand. While complete ownership of land may be restricted, which serves as a commendable measure to prevent property prices from skyrocketing and excluding most Thais from the real estate market, it raises the question of why retirees don't employ legal contracts for protection. I find it hard to believe that it is not possible to set up contractual agreements outlining the equitable distribution of assets in the event of a separation, thereby offering retirees a measure of financial security.
Sorry to hear this sad story about this chap. Your vlogs are essential for advice for people. You speak well and give out info without being judgemental. Keep safe and well.
Hi Paul, i have a fantastic story to tell you. Due to my job, I have extremely limited time to write. Is there anyway I can skype or voice talk to tell you this story?
Hi, my name is actually "Peter" No point really because if you simply told me the story over the phone I would never remember it so best email me when you have time, thanks.
You can certainly see how a guy can think if he meets a shop girl, she's not a working girl or that type of girl. Loneliness causes the brain to go on the fritz and do dumb things. Great advice again.
Absolutely tragic. I am married to a Thai woman and she never asked for money.She works constantly. I consider myself very lucky. We met in a Thai chat room.
I was shocked the first time I asked a 'good' girl out, it was actually in England. When she turned up it was actually with her aunt in tow ( a real aunt ). We had a good time but like I said a real shock.
That is a good sign. Hell until we where married, my wife would not even enter my apartment without her family with her. She did not drink, smoke, nothing. No tattoos. Always dressed respectfully. All of her friends looked up to her. She was the guiding light for them all, she was also the first to marry out of all her friends. All of her friends went to University just like her and had careers they were working towards in their goals. My wife went to RMUTT in Bangkok. Her family all lived in Bangkok too. Saimai District in North Bangkok. If I was going to walk into a bar, my wife would stay outside. Until we married, and even then it was very rare, and only after we moved to America, and after we already had kids.
Mate, people in general are naive, I know some educated Thai women who have been taken for a ride by Thai and foreign men. There has been plenty of stories of women taken for a ride by foreign men here in Australia. Lonely desperate people unfortunately are easily parted with there money.
I wouldn't even consider trusting my GF enough to invest this kind of money, knowing what's going on over there. I have a Thai GF, and she seems to be a good girl, but buying a house in Thailand in her name is a big NO to me. I told her, she's welcome to follow me, and live with me a good life if she wants. Under no circumstances will I move to a country where foreigners have practically no rights.
I know its a year since I commented but god bless "Thomas" and please dont do what he did, trust no one until they actually prove themselves- and even then be careful- dont pay your way to an early grave!
This is so common, it happens through out the world. Men are suckers for a woman to love. it seems to end with the man the looser. in this case he lost every thing including his life. If any man reads this and find love with a woman always be very careful you will in the end pay one way or another.
Spot on heard this a few times almost fell for it myself my friends from Belfast met a girl and was persuaded to buy father teds bar off second road 2 months later after doing the place up and stocking it the girl said she didn't love him wouldn't marry him and wanted him to leave straight away with no money he refused and following morning police came to evict him and he had to leave pattaya turns out the police sargeant was this girls husband at least it stopped me making a similar mistake
Simple rule in business is never ever sign over money to someone without some sort of legal right to get it back. In this case if he felt suicidal he should have at least taken the bar down with him, maybe torched it.
One simple rule is always play your cards close to your chest with these girls. Don’t wear expensive watches or Gold chains, don’t tell them what you got or splash money around too liberally to early. Perhaps employ the 50% rule: tell them you’re only half as rich as you really are.
@@snozzlehead92 that’s a good idea, but you would have to spend a little money upfront like take her to one or two (semi-expensive ) restaurants,dress well and of course have that car ( borrow a richer friends car for one or two dates) . But she better be smokin’ hot for that effort!
Hi Peter, so sad heard more than enough Bout the Pattay flying Club in my time in there just respect fun time that's it for me of course a lot of people get taken in I believe 60%of the workers have left Pattaya now big movement and no way we will get back until the summer at least for general tourism if then live changes thank you Chris
I knew it but was hoping for a different outcome// I would have spent my last cent for Pa and I and friend to spend the last second of our lives together!!!!
Even an intelligent person can fall in such a trap and lose all his( her) property if he (or she) does not get out of the relationship at an early stage.The more time passes a psychological bond is created which clouds his (or her ) reasoning power and one of the two will dominate.In this case the woman was in her country (that is on her territory ) and Thomas was a foreigner of a different culture.Unfortunately the end was tragic.Thanks for sharing that story.
The second you said he checked into a twelve story hotel I knew what was coming. Poor guy rip I've never heard it called the Pattaya flying club. I nearly went over a ballcolney in a hotel in Koh Samui. I came up the stairs after a night out and went to turn left to go to my room but as I was drunk went forward. The wall on the ballcolney was only about 3 feet high. Lucky the girl I was with grabbed a hold of my shift and pulled me back. Some of those hotels are lethal. I like to check that the fire escape doors are not chained up when I stay at one

Hi Peter , thank you for the story , and sad ending. But I don’t understand some men logic . 60 y.o. Met a girl half age younger , at least . Things were going well… sold everything .. did not add 49% of the company as suggested from Solicitor, as suggested , conclusion . 10K miles away from U.K. , after 6 months wanted to settle in Thailand with a young girl ? Who will do the same in U.K. ? How many men in UK or Europe have relationship with young girl at that age ? … unless very wealthy … well if some people want to live a dream … soon or later all dreams will end .
Sad story for sure, and as someone who lived in Bangkok at that time I know of this stuff very well. As for me, I would say NEVER fall for ANY woman in Pattaya, the whole place is like that. Go for fun, never love.
As for me, I married an Amazing Thai woman I met in Bangkok. She was finishing getting her University degree at RMUTT. She was also working as an English teacher in an after school program at the same time. Her father was a monk from a Chinese Family, and her mother was Thai. She was stunningly beautiful inside and out. To this day I feel like I hit the lottery. My wife NEVER wanted anything to do with my money, we have a son. And we moved back to America together. I did pay a dowry. $15,000 USD to marry my wife, as is the custom with a good family that raise a good woman. She was an amazing wife, and mother. Wise way Beyond her years, with the kindest heart. Sadly last year I lost her to breast cancer. But we both truly loved each other, and it was the best relationship of my life. I just wanted to say that even with all the bad stories, of Thai women, I want people to know, there are very good Thai women also. And as an American, I can say "Good Lucky" finding a relationship like I had with my Thai wife in America. Not sure if I could ever fall in love again. But I never known what the real feeling of a soul mate was until I met my wife. But my biggest advice to anyone going to Thailand looking for love, is to know their culture very well, and be a good communicator with patience, understand the things you think are just normal in your culture, are not in Thai culture. Knowing her culture well, and being well read is a big key to help you. Funny but after coming here to America, my wife never wanted Thai girlfriends. She felt the Thai girls living in America that she met where all bad women. Most ex hookers, or that type. Thai women who did not even know my wife would meet her, and ask how she hook me, and ask for advise to help girls friends or sister to get American husband, like my wife was an ex hooker who tricked an American. It would really piss her off. She very quickly my wife said "I don't need any of these Thai girls as friends" I felt sad about this. But that is a good Thai woman.
How long were you married for ?
@@delcamelot dated 2 years, married 7 years.
Good story, I know many stories like yours here in the states, and I think it can happen, but let's face it, the minute guys get off the plane play and pay is the name of the game, results are dum and gloom, with pleasant stories of lust trip object is done until next time, and next time
"I don't need any of these Thai girls as friends"
She was probably worried they would tempt her back onto the CC like Dereks wife Kwan.
On the upside, Thomas's story will help save the lives of other men, who at least choose to learn from someone else's mistakes.
In an ideal world it would, however these guys don't want to know the truth , their egos have completely taken over.
RIP Thomas. Sounds like he had worked so hard over the years only to be hard done by. Thanks for sharing Peter, hopefully this will be a wake up call for other guys.
A wise old Irishman once told me stay away from the Dam Putty. It can make your life miserable cost you everything you worked for and even kill you
Gee, that really escalated quickly at the end! Was not expecting that.
The moral of the story is ... become a UK taxi driver with a council house, but don't buy a bar in Thailand.
Don't buy anything in Thailand. Wasted money! Only rent.
A divorced sixty-year-old man travels halfway around the world and starts a relationship with a woman one-third his age, hands her all his money, what could possibly go wrong, ha, ha.
You have a gift in telling good stories Peter. I enjoy them even though most are on the down side for us farangs haha, Love your channel, stay safe my friend!!
Thanks for your positive feedback
I agree Peter is the world's best storyteller
I've been to Pattaya and Nana a few times. I LOVE your stories. They really do take me back there. BRILLIANT CHANNEL!!!
rewatching this a year later, pushing aside the sad content, your storytelling is really good and keeps the listener engaged.
Thank you for your positive comments I appreciate that
You're a diamond for all the good advice you give out. You're a life-saver. You deserve a medal.
Leaving children behind is sad. Still had plenty to live for.
OMG..... Peter, this is a very sad story .In fact it's frightening me . Thomas was a great guy , worked very hard all his life .He didn't deserved all this .....a very sad ending ,indeed. Thank You Peter for another excellent video. You are a very good story teller and a pleasant English language speaker !
Thomas RIP.
Golden rule:
If you do good to others, others would thank you and fool you.
Unfortunately I have personal experience of at least three people taking a dive of their balconies in Pattaya it's very sad
No good deed goes unpunished.
That's such a sad story mate ... for all the beautiful things Thailand has to offer, it sure can strip you bare.
If you have been cheated to the point of suicide, taking the culprits with you seems like a _thoughtful gesture_ towards all the other good people out there. Just sayin...
True if a person that commits suicide , is damned to hell , then take the people with you that caused the problem .They can all go south .
it will send a message to other people that this may happen to them if they try it
@@SR-cg7pu I don't think Thomas was planning to fly with balcony Airways I think it was a spur of the moment thing

After a 1.5year in that same mould I feel myself trapped in that grey zone between the ultimate last chance to live my love story or become a member of that flying club. Very suicidal position. Bitter moon is shining above.

100% spot on
not thaigirls ... bargirls and this can happen everywhere in the world in these circles.
Too sad of and end for Thomas. Sorry to hear about such a nice dude. I hope many guys can learn from your videos to avoid these pitfalls. Thank you Pete!
Excellent story , good lesson about reality in Pattaya .... never underestimate the " creativity " of these girls.
thank god I have done my "research" before moving there .....
Never underestimate the power of Puddy. Like Mick said in the Rocky movie women can weaken men and make them think with the wrong head I was with my Wise Old Irish friend we were drinking in a bar two guys started fighting over a woman my Irish friend turned to me and said would you look at those two damn fools fighting over a little bitty piece of the Puddy.
Bloody hell! This was more engaging than a Hollywood movie. Honestly, I don't know whether to feel sorry for or angry with Thomas but I ended settling for angry. I know it might appear insensitive but I actually feel very very angry at him after listening to the story.
Thank you for that very important information very sad and cold hearted
My pleasure
Thanks for sharing.Very sad ending to this story but people need to hear all sides and angles. A legal concept exists that is useful for property ownership in such markets. A company is created that owns the assets (property, house, flat, land, lease to a shop or bar etc), the business (bar, B+B, hotel, shop, car rental or whatever), operates it, pays taxes and all other dues. The owner, shareholder and director of the company is the guy from abroad therefore remains in control of the capital and the business. This structure is 100% legal and widely used. I mention this so people like this gentleman knows, hopefully they hire a lawyer to set it up for them.
My motto is trusting is good, only trusting yourself is even better. Dare I say had this gentleman deployed above legal structure, he would be healthy now, had his business, maybe even wealthy and his woman by his side (with a bit of luck). If he wanted to be decent and generous by her, he could have given her a percentage of the business as they would have worked together to build it up from scratch but he would have kept the property lease within the company and 100% in his own control, but of course events took another course and proved fatal in this case.
If people learnt to separate relationship from transactional sex, if they accepted that in Thailand they only find transactional sex and nothing else, we wouldn't hear such sad stories.
I'm addicted. This is better than Penthouse Letters!! I will always listen to this channel🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Who remembers readers wife's
@@ThailandBound that must be a UK THING🤣🤣
@@ThailandBound so, I have question for u. I met a small town girl that has all the aspects of a good girl. I really low balled her and asked would she live w me for 8,000 / month. She told me that she made 15,000 a month... but she said, she'll do it, cuz she wants love... cuz she's had bad relationships. Now, u said, a a good girl would never accept money. But she's willing to do half of what she makes, if that story is even true. Would u consider her a good girl or a part time freelancer? Keep in mind, it was my idea to pay her. And I purposely picked her cuz she's not beautiful... just average. I wanna live w her for 6 months, then leave. That's our agreement. Will she do something nuts like kill me in my sleep with her brother? I've already told her, I don't have much money. I've also told her - this is not a love thing, this is a deal for beach company. She 26...im 36. What's ur opinion?
I recall you recently retold this story, but it was the very shortened version, though nontheless impactful. It was interesting to hear tihs story again in the full version. It's a tragic story and, at the same time, serves as a chilling warning.
Watch Out..For The Long Con..Thai girls can wait 5 or 10 yrs for a payout.
Yeah I've seen that a few times as well. Especially if a guy marries the girl and takes her back to his country
Exactly. It's happening to me unfortunately.
@@LordTaylor007 sorry to hear. Hope you're doing okay
I’ve heard of men protecting themselves against financial loss by “gifting” 25-40% of their home to their parents (provided you can completely trust them and they fully understand the terms of this arrangement) as a means of insurance in case things go sour with you and your wife ( weather she be foreign or local). That way they gift you back that portion of your home once the divorce is well and truly settled ...
@@LordTaylor007 Stay Strong.....hide or spend your assets...
I'm glad my Thai wife doesn't have any "brothers"

Such a sad story I wonder if the lady ever knew what Thomas's end would be.
I hope she did know that way she would have to carry the guilt herself.
Thank you for sharing that story with us.
I doubt she cared. I doubt she felt any guilt. She got what she wanted.
Great Blog, I hope it saves a few other men from getting sucked in by these woman. There should be someone standing outside the airport handing out one of the books that have these type of stories in them. I know of a man that is getting taken for a ride right now.
Very sad! Thanks for your stories. It sure makes you think.
Great video
I've been going pattaya over 20yrs
Many girls I know as friends work in the mall in the daytime
And walk beach road at night to freelance
Many men think the ones in the mall don't go with clients
But it's not true
Yes there might be small percentage that don't work at night
Thank u from New York city
Yes you're right people think because they've got a day job they don't work at night
Hi hope you are well 🙏 please keeps it up the videos I find u days ago and I really enjoy what you do🙌🏻👏🏻 cheers
Thank you, I will
Peter, I'm a huge fan of the "love stories" on this channel. This should be mandatory viewing for single men, age 50+, contemplating a visit to Thailand to run the bars. All potentially "handsome men" be forewarned!
Hi, thanks, glad you like the love stories.
Going through some of your older videos, I’m hooked…sorry about your mate! (2 years later)
Ha, you are such a visual story teller.. Love your narration..
Glad you enjoyed it!
Very bad Karma for those two. People think they’re getting away with something, but the law of Karma, or as you sow, so your reap, will catch them. The pay back is X10 which can take many forms. This law applies to everyone. So they will pay dearly
@@sihanchen7552 just because they don’t believe, doesn’t mean they’re not subject to it. They’ll see.
Love your comments. Been there done that then I meet my wife just a local girl from the north. Had schooling now me and the family are family. Not only that she takes care of me more that’s more than I could ever see. She was nothing to do with bars.my wife never drinks. So don’t give up hope that you could meet the girl of your dreams
just come across your blog peter and find it very informative for people who have recently started visiting Thailand, after living here for over twelve years with my Thai partner who was a bar girl when i met her and living with other ex pats who are having long term relationships with ex bar girls it can sometimes work out if its friendship and companionship your looking for but like you i have heard many stories of tales of woe but there are many falang living contented lives up country with Thai partners whos voices are never heard in Pattaya or Bangkok bars but some very interesting comments on here
moral here : if she is not working girl - never pay her 😈
Another great podcast, very sad what happened to Thomas
Thank you for this very interesting story. I really enjoy it. I hope that others going to Thailand for the first time will not fall for the same thing. I have families in Thailand and I've been there several times. There are many good Thai women but you have to know where to look and be realistic about your expectations. A good one is not going to ask you to support her unless you already married her. That's not normal. They would be too embarrass. Just don't let the outer appearance fool you because there are good and bad people everywhere.
They have a job to do and they are good at what they do.
It is really good story it is sad but it is educational like you've said you should not judge a book by its cover. Thanks a lot. I really wish bad luck to that destructible girl and her disgraceful friend.
One of your best stories.
Listened to it many times .
Sad , Thomas seemed to be a kind man , dangerous in that environment.
the Pattaya Flying Club is dangerous but the term is so funny I could not help bursting into pearls of Laughter.
Your The Best Peter, Great Story !
Hi Peter, I’ve been a long time subscriber to channel and I’ve. I’ve heard all your stories, but I must’ve missed this one……….. I would imagine it up in a very hard story to reach out because I can assure you it was a very hard story to listen to, and I felt so sorry for the poor guy, and obviously his children back in the UK and some it was very shocking I wasn’t expecting that sort of end, but it is reality and you know I salute you for reaching out even though it must’ve been hard for you to do so special someone you know…….. now I’ve been told by many people and listening to your channel but it’s not a good idea to buy properties with Thai girlfriends because of the reason you’ve just explained, but then someone said if you buy a condo it’s different you can have a condo in your name if you’re a foreigner, is that true?
Yes that's true as long as the ratio is no more than 40% foreigners to 60% Thai in one block I don't know if they actually enforce that because it seems to be a lot of foreigners in some blocks a particularly around the Sukhumvit area but that's the law anyway
What a sad story. Thanks Peter.
you tell very good information stories love it
EXCELLENT PETER
Tim, put into an email, lets share the story...peter@thailand-bound.com
I can't believe what Plaa did to Thomas. Biggest mistake is to ever purchase anything there. If you want to live there just rent. No headache and it's cheaper. Love your. . Peter your content is great. 90 percent of us love your channel and content so keep them stories coming! Will be coming ro the diamond jewellery exhibition in Bangkok on Sept so I hope to see you if possible
Very true!
What a sad story so very well delivered. R.I.P. Thomas, I actually feel a little depressed now but thanks anyway T.B.
Thomas is not the first and he certainly won’t be the last guy to fly with “Balcony Airlines.” Watch this, it will cheer you up, I guarantee it! 😍
Sad story. Thanks for sharing, Peter.
Hi Peter I have watched several of your videos & most of them show how mainly English blokes get conned & ripped off by these Thia girls & I can understand why because lots of them have lovely bodies & are beautiful looking girls & men of all ages fall for their lies. It reminds me of some different event that happened to several friends of mine but hearing their stories before everything went wrong for them. One of them a good few years ago now had the same sort of experience that you have described in as much as he went there quite a lot & met this girl several times & as far as he was concerned she was okay & you can probably guess the rest. As he had been there several times with her & he fell for her lies & like in this story I have just been watching of yours. They planned being together full time & she agreed that she would like to come to the UK & they would get married, then came the usual excuse that she would need money to send back to help keep her parents as they were getting old & needed help with life in general & that is why she worked to send them money but if she stopped working & came to the UK she would still need money to look after her parents (& all these stories end up the same). It seems to me to be that its a general story used to conn the British guys for money as it always seems to work. Anyway to cut a long story short he gave her a load of money & I can't remember how much so he could come back to the UK to sort out a home for them for when she would fly to the uk, which he did. Then he contacted her as he did regularly & arranged & paid for her flight to the UK plus he sent he a load more money to keep her so called parents comfortable when she left & she wanted enough money to put in a bank account she had set up so her parents could draw from it to have regular food & what ever they needed. So he did what she said & asked for giving him all the bank account details so he could transfer the money & as you can guess she never heard from him or saw her again & ended up losing several thousands of pounds.
The second one was more recent only a couple of years ago, a different friend of mine who had his own business in computer programming & did quite well, then like a lot of English blokes had problems with his wife so he decided after making lots of enquiries about work in Thailand on computers & setting them up & programming them & was told there was loads of work out there for him & he should be able to earn good amounts of money so he decided to go there & see how things were. So he gave everything up here & went out there & he liked it & set up business out there. Then once he was earning good amounts of money he got tempted by these lovely looking girls & I must admit he loved the company of beautiful sexy girls & gradually he got involved with some of them & you can guess the rest . They ended up conning him out of his money & business for more or less they same way most of them do & has ended up with nothing & not even enough money to come back to the UK & recently I have not heard from him & would not be surprised if he joined the flying club as you call it because he realised what a prat he had been letting his cock rule his brain & lost everything to these girls getting depressed & did not know what to do. The amount of these girls out there that do this to older english blokes there must be a lot of these girls that are very rich & I can see why they all do it because they must know that the english blokes are an easy target..
So I will stop now & will look at many more of your stories & I am surprised that a lot of these girls don't get murdered because of what they do.
More man from America Australia Germany and Belgium get ripped off how many more times than English guys the only reason that so many English guys feature in my stories and because obviously being English myself I knew a lot then
It seems like a common belief, in recent years, is a girl with a college degree is a good one. Like they are in a different class of people. Truth is you can't judge a girl by her level of education. A lot of girls earn their way through university on their back. Often times they get a farang boyfriend to pay for university, along with maybe a new house for mom and dad. Once she's gotten every penny the man has, he's shown the door. I've seen this time and time again. Guys think just because they meet a girl outside a bar it must mean they are in a different league and can be trusted to do the right thing. The best way to get a laugh out of a group of expats is to say, "I'm lucky, because my girl isn't like all those other girls. She's special!"
Good point mate, but the sugar daddy thing with uni student girls happens all over the world. Most of the time it’s a better option for girls than whoring themselves to different men every week . At least that way they can bring the man home to the parents and keep up the veneer for both parties ;-) . He’ll pay for her phone/ internet , help out with university fees, some money for clothes and give her some petrol money. But you’re right, when the man’s down to his last pennies he’s shown the door and the cycle begins again. ;-)
They actually are 'a different class'. Poor, semi literate, uneducated hardened prostitute Vs Highly educated , securely brought up woman.

Correct

This is really sad. If i wanted to form a long term relationship with a Thai girl (which I don’t because i’m happily married to one) I certainly wouldn’t go looking in Pattaya. As you say many of the girls working in the markets and malls there are also on the game and if they aren’t they ALL know what the score is with the male farangs that flock there in their thousands and what is to be ‘expected’ of (from) them. Once a girl has left the village and hit Pattaya (other locations in Thailand are available) they soon become corrupted by their co-workers and the farang wallet. On the other side of the coin, i have seen on numerous occasions so many loud mouth, ignorant, hideous drunken foreigners treat girls appallingly so they too must have their own fair share of horror stories. You can only imagine the stories some of those girls could tell. It’s all very sad. So sorry to hear about your friend here.
I think people like yourself who are experienced with Thailand and won't fall for these kinds of girls that guys going on holiday for the first time don't know anything about the bars and are very susceptible
@@ThailandBound oh yes, it’s certainly a challenge to step back and walk away when the pretty girl is tugging at your heart strings. I’m not made of stone, I know just how it can get to you. Your channel is good to point out all the pitfalls to potential first timers but for every one that watches your posts (and hundreds of others on the subject) there are thousands - no millions - that haven’t and enter the place like a lamb to the slaughter. Like i said though, its not just one sided. some guys are just nasty pieces of work, maybe because of their own bad experiences in the past or maybe because they are just not nice people, but then I guess that goes for folk and places the world over. To me Pattaya is just a fun city. Playtime in between work, that’s all. Have your fun then go back to work. Easier said than done -.even for the more experienced traveler. I once read somewhere if you’re ever on a train to heaven and it stops in Pattaya, get off! - just don’t miss the last train home. 😉

My audio for bedtime
In any business venture, you must own majority of the shares, if not then don't do it.
My solution: take my Thai girlfriend to Vietnam and settle down there.
My now Thai wife and I went to Pattaya for a couple of nights( She only wanted to do a day trip) anyway after the first night she wanted out of there, she said to me Honey I'm disgusted how my fellow countrywomen behave, the sight of 70-80yo men walking around with 20yo women wasn't a good sight either, my wife comes from a very wealthy family, I actually met her here in Australia in 2012, she had already lived here for 3 years on a Student visa, she is very well educated with 2 masters degrees, we have been married almost 7 years, she now works very hard in the ICU of the local hospital and is 100% committed to me and our marriage, her family treat me as one of the family, never let us pay for anything, I remember 2 years ago us taking my Sister in law and brother in law to Tasmania for a weeks holiday, we paid for the trip, when they were going home before they went through immigration they gave us 1000AUD for the tassie trip I refused to take it, after much protest I took it, can't win with her family, have to come up with some ingenious methods to pay for things(and we have although very rarely) there are good Thai women out there, so sorry for Thomas, as you said he should have just gone back to the UK.
Places such as Pattaya are not a true reflection of regular Thai Society, unfortunately some foreign holiday makers never venture out of these types of locations and as a consequence they have a very foggy view of Thailand.
@@ThailandBound Most definitely, but I have made some great friends in Patong including an Expat Brit and Swiss who have been happily married to Thai women for many years, but they are closer in age to their partners and very faithful, also 2 Thai brothers that own a Motorcycle themed restaurant, bar and Hotel that would give you the shirt off their back. There are some lovely places in Thailand to Visit, apart from Phuket, there is Chiang Mai, my wife's hometown Phetchabun is lovely, Pai, we did a 10 day road trip with the family from Chiang Mai around the"Golden Triangle" a must do!!, Krabi, Phang Nga etc, there is lots I havent seen over to the east of Bangkok.
my first time i went to thailand i was amazed..havent experienced anything like it..started seeing this girl..and chatted to her when i went home..when she started talking about her sick mom and money..being from south africa i immediately told her goodluck with her mom.and deleted her number and blocked it....but i also know guys who fall for these girls stories.real sad story about thomas
Yes shame about Thomas he was a nice guy but I suppose you got hooked in
@@ThailandBound How did you avoid falling for it yourself, must have been tempted
@@thegormlesstwit849 not really I could see through them and I've never been vulnerable or lonely. A lot of these guys who fall in love are very lonely guys or they might have just come out of a very messy divorce thankfully I haven't been in their position.
Even if her mom was genuinely sick, I still wouldn't send money. Guess I can't be scammed
Yes I want a Thai partner but I would never put anything in my partners name, I would keep my savings in Australia, and if I buy something like property / condo it would be in my name only. And have a backup plan for Australia if things goto shit. I think you have to do a complete risk analysis in everything you do when marrying overseas or going overseas.

@thailand bound, try making and collecting videos about Thai ghost stories. I am sure many South East Asian people will want to hear more about that. =D
My channel is not about stuff like that and I'm not experienced enough to talk about ghosts
I can't believe it, I remember that when you 1st time you read it, it's was good then aswell
Just wondering how come I can see my comment right away after I post it... Is it hidden so other can't see my email address? I know you said it would, but I didn't think I could see it right away...?
I think you would need to ask UA-cam, it has nothing to do from my end.
The email address you sent me bounced back? It had a capital H at the beginning so I tried that and with a small h they both bounced back. You need to check the spelling of the email address you left for me.
Never, ever, sell your assets back home to fund anything in Thailand. It is common knowledge that you only spend in Thailand what you are willing to lose, and that includes money spent on women. I have a Thai wife and we have been together 6 years. All my assets are NOT in Thailand and in my name only. She will only get some of it when I die, and since I take good care of her and she is a "good girl" (tm) hopefully she will not get any funny ideas about hastening that event. My main worry is that once she starts talking to other Thai women they can become corrupted and get bad ideas.
One aspect that perplexes me is the apparent absence of legal safeguards adopted by Western retirees in Thailand. While complete ownership of land may be restricted, which serves as a commendable measure to prevent property prices from skyrocketing and excluding most Thais from the real estate market, it raises the question of why retirees don't employ legal contracts for protection. I find it hard to believe that it is not possible to set up contractual agreements outlining the equitable distribution of assets in the event of a separation, thereby offering retirees a measure of financial security.
Wow..what a story!
Sorry to hear this sad story about this chap. Your vlogs are essential for advice for people. You speak well and give out info without being judgemental. Keep safe and well.
Much appreciated
Hi Paul, i have a fantastic story to tell you.
Due to my job, I have extremely limited time to write.
Is there anyway I can skype or voice talk to tell you this story?
Hi, my name is actually "Peter" No point really because if you simply told me the story over the phone I would never remember it so best email me when you have time, thanks.
Thailand Bound sorry Peter. Thank you. Sure I will try to write it down.
Enjoyed this,sad story
Really good story
to ad, this happened to a good friend of mine in Cuba (Havana) except the dead part, he returned to Canada and doubled down on working, best choice
You can certainly see how a guy can think if he meets a shop girl, she's not a working girl or that type of girl.
Loneliness causes the brain to go on the fritz and do dumb things.
Great advice again.
Absolutely tragic. I am married to a Thai woman and she never asked for money.She works constantly. I consider myself very lucky. We met in a Thai chat room.
I was a taxi driver for 33 years and never worried getting with a woman permanently but I had my fun on the side.
Very sad story and so easy to get suckered in. We farangs are too trusting and let our hearts rule our heads.
To trusting???
I think, we are to needy to horny and to drunk at the same time.
( a toxic combination)
make us to a easy prey.
I was shocked the first time I asked a 'good' girl out, it was actually in England. When she turned up it was actually with her aunt in tow ( a real aunt ). We had a good time but like I said a real shock.
That is a good sign. Hell until we where married, my wife would not even enter my apartment without her family with her. She did not drink, smoke, nothing. No tattoos. Always dressed respectfully. All of her friends looked up to her. She was the guiding light for them all, she was also the first to marry out of all her friends. All of her friends went to University just like her and had careers they were working towards in their goals. My wife went to RMUTT in Bangkok. Her family all lived in Bangkok too. Saimai District in North Bangkok. If I was going to walk into a bar, my wife would stay outside. Until we married, and even then it was very rare, and only after we moved to America, and after we already had kids.
I've heard stories like this many times. And I must say that farangs are sometimes very naive.
Foe sure.
Mate, people in general are naive, I know some educated Thai women who have been taken for a ride by Thai and foreign men. There has been plenty of stories of women taken for a ride by foreign men here in Australia. Lonely desperate people unfortunately are easily parted with there money.
I guess I could make 20 UA-cam channels on this but my channel is about Thai bar girls doing it.
and the moral is ...if you go to Thailand to screw make sure you do not get screwed
you never lose your thai girlfriend! you only miss @ TURN!
I wouldn't even consider trusting my GF enough to invest this kind of money, knowing what's going on over there. I have a Thai GF, and she seems to be a good girl, but buying a house in Thailand in her name is a big NO to me. I told her, she's welcome to follow me, and live with me a good life if she wants. Under no circumstances will I move to a country where foreigners have practically no rights.
I know its a year since I commented but god bless "Thomas" and please dont do what he did, trust no one until they actually prove themselves- and even then be careful- dont pay your way to an early grave!
Well sometimes according to the lads Thailand is their only hope! Its a sad Story .. sorry for your loss....🙏 Chris from Germany
This is so common, it happens through out the world. Men are suckers for a woman to love. it seems to end with the man the looser. in this case he lost every thing including his life.
If any man reads this and find love with a woman always be very careful you will in the end pay one way or another.
Spot on heard this a few times almost fell for it myself my friends from Belfast met a girl and was persuaded to buy father teds bar off second road 2 months later after doing the place up and stocking it the girl said she didn't love him wouldn't marry him and wanted him to leave straight away with no money he refused and following morning police came to evict him and he had to leave pattaya turns out the police sargeant was this girls husband at least it stopped me making a similar mistake
It is shocking how many guys lose out in Pattaya
Simple rule in business is never ever sign over money to someone without some sort of legal right to get it back. In this case if he felt suicidal he should have at least taken the bar down with him, maybe torched it.
One simple rule is always play your cards close to your chest with these girls. Don’t wear expensive watches or Gold chains, don’t tell them what you got or splash money around too liberally to early. Perhaps employ the 50% rule: tell them you’re only half as rich as you really are.
@@snozzlehead92 that’s a good idea, but you would have to spend a little money upfront like take her to one or two (semi-expensive ) restaurants,dress well and of course have that car ( borrow a richer friends car for one or two dates) . But she better be smokin’ hot for that effort!
An eye opening story...
Hi Peter, so sad heard more than enough Bout the Pattay flying Club in my time in there just respect fun time that's it for me of course a lot of people get taken in I believe 60%of the workers have left Pattaya now big movement and no way we will get back until the summer at least for general tourism if then live changes thank you Chris
Yeah I agree with you there Chris
I knew it but was hoping for a different outcome// I would have spent my last cent for Pa and I and friend to spend the last second of our lives together!!!!
Even an intelligent person can fall in such a trap and lose all his( her) property if he (or she) does not get out of the relationship at an early stage.The more time passes a psychological bond is created which clouds his (or her ) reasoning power and one of the two will dominate.In this case the woman was in her country (that is on her territory ) and Thomas was a foreigner of a different culture.Unfortunately the end was tragic.Thanks for sharing that story.
The second you said he checked into a twelve story hotel I knew what was coming. Poor guy rip I've never heard it called the Pattaya flying club. I nearly went over a ballcolney in a hotel in Koh Samui. I came up the stairs after a night out and went to turn left to go to my room but as I was drunk went forward. The wall on the ballcolney was only about 3 feet high. Lucky the girl I was with grabbed a hold of my shift and pulled me back. Some of those hotels are lethal. I like to check that the fire escape doors are not chained up when I stay at one
Well that's scary. Yes Thomas Was A good friend of mine I wish he would have shared his problems but he was a little bit of a private person.
brutal lesson all men should be aware of...
I know of many stories regarding the 'Pattaya flying club' - very sad to here of this ..
Nobody knew Thomas would do it
Bitcoin is defying all laws of nature and TA in this new era with many speculations and many predictions gone wrong, it's outrightly wrong to just sit back hodl and wait maybe incur some losses along the line, that's a wrong mindset for an investors because as an investor finding ways to always increase and stack up more coins thereby making profits should be the way of life, even experienced traders are in doubt to take long or short position. People who invested in Bitcoin at the beginning or even in 2013 or 2015, when Bitcoin was crashing, have now become millionaires. Thanks mainly to the good time, my initial investment was multiplied by 5 in 2 months. After getting in touch with Mr Adam Oliver, an expert in cryptography, who showed me how to use his program to make transactions and got 14 Bitcoin in 2 months with him. If you are looking for a way to increase your profit or been scared of investing as a beginner, I will recommend you to expert Adam Oliver and you can always contact him on his Telegram Channel.
Hi Peter , thank you for the story , and sad ending. But I don’t understand some men logic . 60 y.o. Met a girl half age younger , at least . Things were going well… sold everything .. did not add 49% of the company as suggested from Solicitor, as suggested , conclusion . 10K miles away from U.K. , after 6 months wanted to settle in Thailand with a young girl ? Who will do the same in U.K. ? How many men in UK or Europe have relationship with young girl at that age ? … unless very wealthy … well if some people want to live a dream … soon or later all dreams will end .
