Is it not clear why there's an influx into the Thai Baht? Because everyone's rushing to the only solace they know: sex.

Hell at 22 baht to the Aus$ there's going to be alot less Aussies spending money on the bedroom arts.

[azza33]

under 22 baht to the aussie

54 baht to the british pound



You have go to be kidding me.....

At this rate the aussie will drop below 20 baht to the dollar

And the irony is: there is on 14 AA rated banks left in the world

And FOUR of them are in Australia!!

It can all go and get fucked i reckon!!!

just my rant for the day~~~

[Naang Faa]

54 baht to the british pound

Equals the lowest i've seen...

We need to define a new currency index for non financial minded individual to appreciate the world of hurt us poor aussies are going through.

Now if we define a standard unit as the 1000 baht short time.

In June, $100 aussie bought 3 unit!

Now in October we are only getting 2 units!

We are losing 1 ST per $100!!

Can you now feel our pain??  

[geosight]

Listen I have a friend working for an American company here in Bangkok. We both rent and live in the same complex >AS of today I am paying nearly $1000 AUS more for the same room per month....
That is just fucking pathetic .... Fucking resource based economy..And while im at it fuck these Australian companies that have us work over seas with this shitty currency exchange.. it's a fucking conspiracy
And fuck your allowances ...

happy hour all fucking day

yep think were all hoping things improve.......5 years ago £100 got me 7000 baht...........now thats better thats good mongering rates..........cummon baby get up there!

[terryw]

The forecast is that the GBP will fall to £1 = $1.50.

This time last year it was £1 = $2.06

We could next week be getting less than 50 bhat to £1

[robbo]

yes its bleak reading i admit...................if it carries on then it may be more economical just to stay in the uk and ladyboy hunt what with flights etc gone up also.

[dummy_plug]

If things continue, I may be able to take a trip to London, buy me a flat, and still have some change left for dinner!
