Coss Posted November 19, 2014 Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 I heard a story recently which, I think, illuminates the Thai attitude towards money Thai lady and Farang husband, happily married and living in Oz, been together years and years. The wife wins $300k on the lotto. Not telling the husband, she pays off a house she's been secretly buying (via mortgage) in Thailand. She tells the husband she won 7,000 on the lotto, she buys a new bed for them. And life goes on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flashermac Posted November 20, 2014 Report Share Posted November 20, 2014 No such problem with my Mrs. She is paying for 2 houses with her own money. (As a C-8 civil servant, she has a nice income). However, if I were that husband, the gal's lying certainly would not make me happy. If she won something like that, I'd expect her to at least be honest about it.

Coss Posted November 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2014 The wife in this story is also presumably aware of the 50/50 marital property split if divorce looms and does't want her husband to share. This is my mind demonstrates the Thai attitude to laws in general... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dean Posted November 20, 2014 Report Share Posted November 20, 2014 If she dies before her husband, would her relatives in Thailand keep her secret from him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted November 20, 2014 Report Share Posted November 20, 2014 Although happily married, in reality it would seem he does not know his wife after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
