BelgianBoy Posted July 19, 2014 Report Share Posted July 19, 2014 Wifie and I just made a list of her Thai friends here in Belgium, a group of 19 gals between 32 and 39 years old, 17 of them hold a uni degree, 2 out of college. Then again, also lots of them here wih a bar degree but not in their group of friends. Over to you Flashie. BB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flashermac Posted July 19, 2014 Report Share Posted July 19, 2014 My Mrs is a PhD ... refuses to give up her career. She's got a point. (She says maybe we can move to the States when she retires.) p.s. A friend's GF told him point blank that she would marry him if he stayed in Thailand.

cavanami Posted July 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2014 The medical costs alone would destroy someone retiring in the USA! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Kung Posted July 20, 2014 Report Share Posted July 20, 2014 The medical costs alone would destroy someone retiring in the USA! I thought Uncle Bambam wuz gonna fix all that. Free fer evabody's and a popsicle cell cure! Hasn't happened? Damn Bush. Sorry, back to Vietnam. In a serious war, the Chinese naval and air forces would pound Hanoi to rubble. Sounds hauntingly similar to what Dulles told Johnson in 1964. If Vietnam didn't "win" the war, they might be more like Germany, Japan and South Korea today. Congratulations!

Flashermac Posted July 20, 2014 Report Share Posted July 20, 2014 But the US wouldn't do it. China doesn't give a chit about world opinion and really would flatten it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
