Global economic situation for liveaboard cruising yachties

I ... I ... I don't know what to say ... I am so touched ... it's just so ... ah ... emotional for me ... that some people take such great and ... personal interest in my humble persona ... hahahahaha!!!!!! But seriously, I have things to do. Real things. That's how you get ahead in life - don't act like babies. I have 5 new companies to open, that's how u do business - diversification. Every couple of years I open 3-5 companies, and keep the ones that make nice money, then I have a nice portfolio of businesses that make nice money. Try it sometimes, it's just like stock diversification. Now, my big babies, there is not end to your ignorance. You read my threads, but learned nothing. I learn from others' threads ... but what can I possibly expect from little children. No, I never said I was great. No, I never said I was number one. Etc, etc, etc. Go play in kindergarden. U know ... I could post a few pictures for you though .... would it help? But let's be fair. Everybody else would also have to post theirs. I have a nice picture of me in uniform. How about ... from my MBA program, me and my classmates? Maybe I should scan my transcripts and diplomas ... ? Get a life, u starting to bore me. You need to be amusing and entertaining like Mark. I like his baby talk much more. At least he tries .... And you may have noticed we've been talking economics and govt corruption for a while. Retards. Oooh, let me be politically correct - mentally and emotionally challenged. But even more seriously, it's my fault. It slipped my mind for a second that many people cannot deal with facts and reality, and they need denial and fantasies to cope with harsh, cruel world. With degree in psych, I should have known better. But then again, I am not a practicing psychologist, so I excuse myself.

 

How do you kill capitalism?

Capitalism is supposed to mean freedom to trade so clever get rich and dumb get poor,--perfect right.

To capitalize to take advantage of a situation and profit from it. To be your own driver,-- to gain, and to fail at someones gain.

With what would you replace that with?

 

Oh bother...

Slavery, or, a subsistence lifestyle, or, anarchy, or, Fascism (implemented legally in USA almost), or, "professional" beggar, or, send your wife out to work, or, - - well use your imagination?

 

Only 5? Oh come on you can open at least 10 in one day. Don't let me down now, forget the photo if your only 5 a day man.

Did you ever see that Movie called" the phone booth" you know that guy that was held hostage in a phone booth by a sniper.

That guy in the booth? remind you of anyone.

 

I tell you what. There maybe some people that want to see just how tough they/I am. You know, we can put it to rest quite easily. Just set up a no-rules fight, I call my lawyer, we sign you can't sue me if you experience heavy damage or death, and then we go do it. Hell, we can do it in Cambodia, they'll go for that over there. Will even put up some cash. How about that? I had one time some scum assaulted me, hit me 4 times, I deflected it every time, but the last strike was strong. I felt the intention, he wanted to take me out. That upset me, one strike to the left jaw, dislocated, off to hospital. Next day the ******* files simple assault report against me with NYPD. I don't believe this. I see the detective, tell him what really happened, making false reports is highly illegal, u know ... if he lies on the stand, purjury, obstruction of justice, etc. many years in jail. So, charges dropped, case sealed, end of story. These are the kind of pukes I have to deal with in my life. Talk more baby talk behind internet, it's safer, just make it amusing, else I just gonna ignore it. Daddy needs entertainment.

 

nyalex When I first came to Thailand ten years ago there were Russian girls working in Pattaya. It seems the Chicago School of Economics boys sent to Russia to help implement capitalism managed to lower the Russian gdp to one of the lowest on the planet while at the same time managing to enable a culture of greed that made Russia host to more billionaire parasites than any other country. I suspect that like the Thai girls from Isan who work the bars ,these Russian girls sent most of their earnings home to relatives depending on them for their very existence. While it is true that these women trade sex for money I would not be so derogatory in your assesment of their character. With the resurgance of the Russian economy due to ever increasing demand for its resources and the return to a command economy by Putin , today Thailand now has many Russian tourists and the Russian girls who remain in the trade are not in Thailand to send money home, but to make themselves or their Russian pimps rich. On the other hand a new crop of young girls from Isan still arrive in Pattaya every year desperate to find that elusive Falang ,the one with jai dee (good heart) who will help them to help their family. I am one of those stupid Falong who has a Thai wife and child who lives in what is apparently according to you ignorant bliss. I am aware of the horror stories regarding Thai women and Falang of which you refer ,but am also acquainted with many men who have faired far worse in divorce courts in the west. I like Frosty find the Thai people to be for the most kind and hospitable. P.S. Thailand does;t need any more tough (talking) guys

 

........something sad to ponder over (besides Nylex of course).....

....do you consider yourself to be , say, average? If so then half the world is below your intellegence level....those 3 billion people are the easiest way to make money........I told you it was sad, but that is exactly how many rich people have become so........

 

So are you taking advantage of the less intelligent, or are you the one being taken advantage of?

 

Nyalix
The anonymity of the net seems to be a drug some find inescapable, a way to be all that one is not in the real world. Im not the toughest guy in the world and although Ive kicked more than a few asses who needed it Ive had my *** handed to me as well, but if you insist your all that, then I say lets go for it.

Mail me a ticket I'll step into a ring anywhere any time. No cops no problem. Break anything you want but gentleman's rules apply. I'll not bust your balls or your teeth and you do the same, shake hands and Im good to go. Ill pay your repair bill you pay mine.

balls in your court
Im cool with taking you up on your offer which included a nice trip to the Orient where I can visit a few friends while Im recuperating or gloating who knows, but I got time and nothing better to do so why not.

I say we go in Thailand so I can see your bar

cheers
B

 

or are you the one being taken advantage of?



....not sure mate, most likely a bit of both.....but I do try to not be greedy, just a fair days pay for a fair days work, I owe no one and no one owes me....I like it that way.

...I have only ripped off one person in my life....a fellow came into the bike shop I had in Adelaide years ago, asked me what he could get for $500....I sold him a bike I had $350 on the tag (after removing the tag)......

 

Trip to the Orient? Hell sign me up, I’ll take an *** whoopn and recoup with a smile on my face too.

 

That is awful, have you confessed? do you know anyone wise and perfect that could listen to your confession and exonerate you.

In 1992 I did'nt pay for egg and chips at Heathrow airport, well I could'nt afford it

 

Boston,

You do not need to lower yourself mate, we all know here that you are a good man, I am sure you have many proverbs about not needing to prove the point....I am 60 now, and know very well that I do not take on a 35 yo.

You have already proven that you are the better man, thanks mate.

 

as Apex1 would say....

They conquer themselves; fortior est qui se quam qui fortissima vincit moenia [he who conquers himself is stronger than he who conquers the stoutest ...

 

Yeah, Thailand is great. You can't own land, you won't get much fairness in courts, even if you manage to get 1 year visa, you still required to go to police station every 90 days to tell where you live, even though most foreigners in Thailand are not criminals. Yet, Thai lowlife drug dealer can do what he wants, and never check in with cops. He might offer to sell u drugs, then turn u in, get his drugs back, cops lean on you to pay up to avoid charges, and they split your cash. And success rate in marriage with bargirls is very low. Foreigners should just seek normal university girl or some girl that actually works for a living. Bargirls are good for only one thing, and then you have to wonder if she going to slip you some sleeping pills and rob you blind. No, I stand by my advice. Do not, under any circumstances, get involved in any way other than short time with any bargirl. Plus, there are lots of hot young waitresses, and they are free.
