Yeah, by doing something he means dropping his life savings on starting a vegetable farm, at which point he's stuck in his village for 4 or 5 months to tend to the farm.
He doesn't know what's going on, nor do I at the moment. I'm waiting for a response mainly from my main business partner before I know. He can't just wait forever, and at some point has to start bringing in an income, or doing something with himself.
Send him a Bitcoin or two from your stash - I'm sure that'll tide him over until you get there.......or at least pay for another holiday for him until you return as he's probably exhausted still after his last one....
Why so sarcastic? Because I'm sure you're just living the life of dreams, aren't you?
Quit being a dick. At least we're trying.
Yes, you are that - and not sarcastic at all, just being practical, you've a (small?) stash of bitcoin that you'd always told us about - send him one, at the value of those things ( even now they've dropped) that will avoid him having to make any big decisions for the next month or three and so buy you (both) some time - seems very logical to me.Originally Posted by cdnmatt
Is it just me, or is anybody else thinkin this Leo is taking advantage (in other words, the PISS) out of Matt?
If he love Matt, he would not be giving him 2 to 3 weeks top to get back to Lao. And what if Matt can't get to Lao in time because of his business interest?
Does Matt send him money to live on?
You're just getting that now ? So, that's just you and Matt who hadn't worked that out yet then eh !
Lol. I am just playing. Of course I knew this from the time I started reading his posts!
I just can't believe or understand how Matt can not see this?
And him giving Matt two to three weeks to get back to Lao, says it all.
When I read Matt’s proud boast that he is embedded in the local Thai community and abjures contact with his fellow caucasians, I wonder what he talks to them about. Does he (can he) explain his work, for example, or the principles underlying Bitcoin?
Here’s an abbreviated list of conversation topics I’ve had in the past few days - and needless to say I’ve spared the Moderators’ blushes by omitting the more controversial:
- The fightback by condo managements against short-term letting by eg. AirBNB
- Which is the more desirable area in terms of crowds, pavements, public transport etc. of Saladaeng, Silom 3 and Sathorn 11 & 13
- My current consulting gig, the customer’s foibles, whether the business model they promote is sustainable
- The advantages of dictating notes into a smartphone vs. writing them down in a notebook while receiving a guided tour of places like Les Halles
- How my chum’s mobile provider does top-ups vs. prepaid plans
- With a lawyer a discussion of Thai Wills and the lack of the Codicil as a tool for maintaining one
Over to Matt
That's why he wants me there in 2 - 3 weeks. He's running out of money, and is no longer willing to ask me for money or allow me to send him any.
A sceptic might say that Leo has cynically imposed a deadline he knows Matt cannot meet in order to be rid of him and appear the innocent party
