Yeah, I'm jut playing with numbers here. i have an "O' visa. The Thai baht is killing the dollar. Right now 800K is worth

. You would be up over 10% ($2383US) vs when the baht was recently at 37/dollar. I'm just seeing how to play the game that makes sense if any to cash out and either take the gain or maybe just cash out 400K and re enter the 400K.

@Graeme *****
Yeah, I get that. What I am not sure of is if you can get away with doing it every 60 days.

So you could get away with leavng for one day and come back in multiple times during the year? Marky is correct then?

It's 60 bucks now to enter Thailand for a 60 day visa? So doing it every 60 days would not be worth it. I thought they waived visa fees recently to attract more tourists.

Of course those travel expenses add up. I'm trying to figure out if it is worth it to cash out. Used to be you could buy a visa for 500 bucks but now it is 1500. I guess imm figured out you could get 5-6% on your money with a Cd. Never figured them to be that smart.

I'll google it. But I'm talking about being able to stay a year.
