In Topic: Advice On Living In Rented House Without Speaking Thai

One thing I liked about have the single room was that anything that went wrong, was handled by the landlord who just happened to be an American. Can someone shed some light on what is the landlord responsible for if certain things go wrong like the plumbing, electrical wiring, AC, building problems. I will assume the basics like changing light bulbs :), gardening, changing the AC filter, garbage and other simple tasks would be my responsibility.

I just opened the Capital One high yield checking account. The DC they are offer only reimburses fees up to $15 per statement so it isn't as good as Schwab or Fidelity, the 2 DCs I have. I don't have the State Farm DC.

I recently got the Capital One CC and today I received an email from them advertising their high yield checking with the following benefits,
  • Lock in and earn a rate that's guaranteed to be 5X the national average for the first 12 months on balances up to $100,000
  • FREE ATMs Anywhere — at any bank!
  • FREE Checking — no monthly service fee.
Their rate as of today is 1%
Does their DC reimburse all fees worldwide?
I didn't see any mention of no foreign exchange fee. It might be hidden in very fine small print.
I've got some cash coming in so I wouldn't mind 1% (as measly as it is).

I met your father on several occasions. He had an aura of calmness about him and a kind, warm and smiling face. You would never know that he had such a diverse, interesting and public life.
My deepest condolences to your Mom, you and your family.

Vegabound......would you mind updating this post after your experience with McCormick.  Possible rate the service there and give us your impression of that hospital. Thanks. Kevin
Since the doctor advised me to have the MRI done at the facility across from Sripat so I'll wait a few days and have it done there. Both facilities are charging the same price.
