Listen Cobber you need to listen to the advice on this channel-it’s her bar and she won’t budge…you must walk away and re-org. You can’t win in a foreign country… Regards…
Keep an eye on the legal expenses. The lawyers could be milking you while achieving nothing so you get screwed twice. Have an endgame plan and a threshold where enough bs is enough. Keep a bug out bag handy so that you can skip town at short notice with your passport, ticket money, spending money, the shirt on your back, and your life intact. Unlike in your country of origin, the law in the rest of the world doesn't necessarily work on the basis of plain simple logic. There are many other factors involved. Best of luck.
Correct, he should take the loss and move on. Indeed the legal fight will go nowhere if the lease was not in his name. The only winners will be the lawyers who gladly will take the rest of his money.
The moment you said, "I could open up a really good profitable bar and something that could make me a good income. I had five people employed." proves you know nothing about Thai laws and legitimate business practices. You then go on to say, "I don't need a work permit because I don't do any work. I own the place." Say goodbye to your money and the bar, before you are kicked out and blacklisted from Thailand.
A man that talks sense. Unfortunately Greg won't stop until he ends up on skid row like his mate who bankrolled another bar in a Thais name and is allegedly living on one banana every two days. 🍌
Agreed @jim6315. This guy is screwed and doesn't even realize it. The world doesn't work like it does in Australia, the UK, or America, everywhere. He's gonna go broke trying to get money back, and then get deported w nothing. All these expats going to Pattaya/Jontien (moving into a red light district) and then getting screwed over because they're gullible and make stupid decisions trying to litigate are ruining Thailand. They're gonna make it harder on anyone else who wants to retire there because of people like this.
Come on mate you were incredabily nieve about opening a bar letting a thai lady sort out all the paper work..Also you said you spend 65 thousand aussie bucks on the bar in rompo market which outrageous amout of money for bar in that location..Saying all that i hope you can get your bar back without spending to much on lawyers..
Who's going to pay the lawyers fees? To me it seems you are putting good money after bad... I sincerely wish it works out for you,all the best. P.S. you're not a bar owner, you never were...sorry to say that but its true...
It’s not your Bar…..let me say it again its not your Bar The Bar is legally in her name and you we’re the ATM that provided the funds Walk away from this or your going to be a whole heap of trouble
Hi, I've been in Thailand 28 years'. There's a real reason so many bars fail. I'll Explain. To own a bar you have to register your bar company with the DBD (Department of Business Development) You'll have to register your bar company with 2 Thai Nationals. You'll own 40% Thai national 1 40%, Thai national 2 20%. You'll also have to apply for a non B Business visa, as it illegal to own and run a bar on a retirement visa. You'll also have to employ 4 Thai staff on contract of salary 10,000 per month to support your work permit that you apply for after your business visa. you'll also have to pay social security every month about 700 bath, the amount escapes me, to your 4 Thai staff. And also when you rent a business unit you'll have to pay business tax to the landowner. In your situation, the best thing you can do is make up with your partner, enjoy life in Thailand without complaining too much. You seem like a nice guy, I hope everything works out for you my friend .
Sensible advice that Greg won't take His idea of a "good plan" was a load of rubbish Now he is too pig headed to understand that he has lost his meagre investment ( as thousands before him have also managed to achieve in Thailand) and is happy to throw more money at his loss making position because he " has too much to lose Outcome is he will lose more He is the very definition of a Kwai Falang, Thais may smile at you but this is what they really think of this class of yob that deludes themselves while in Thailand
If what you explained is correct, the mentioned percentage of 40% + 40% + 20% tells me that the law was designed in a rigged way to ditch the foreigner easily and the money always stays in Thailand once invested, it will never leave the country. Amazing.
You never had possession of the bar ! No work permit not your name on the business just your cash input. Your are not a bar owner, i walk past THE bar regular its usually empty
The owner of the bar is the person who owns the building. My understanding is that his (at that time) significant other was going to sign a lease and he gave her the money. So legally that means she got a great gift and signed the lease with that money under her name. Then when things went south she had the lease in her name and he had nothing. If that is the truth no lawyer will be able to undo that and they will simply siphon more money out of his pocket.
Greg you are thinking about Family (defacto) law in Australia. The law of splitting assets after the defacto relationship breaks down doesn't apply in Thailand. Thai family law only applies with a marriage certificate. Thai business law? What's that? Technically you are in the category of giving gifts 🎁 to your teelak. Have you ever heard of paying sinsod ($,gifts) to marry in Thailand? This also applies to Mia noi or minor wife (defacto relationship). In the eyes of Thai society " she take care of you and you give her Gifts (sinsod)in return " Thai courts will look at you and think you're a keenow/ indian giver. Keep on trucking brother Greg
Does Thailand recognise equitable legal principles? You don’t have a partnership agreement; you’re not entitled to own a business on your visa; you’re relying on Thai law to get your money back? The first question is, on what basis are you entitled to get your money back? The second question is, does Thai law allow you to get your money back?
Greg's only real chance to get his money back is to not contest the "bar' but to contest the "funding" of the bar. That is, he can argue that he has a "verbal" loan agreement with the legal bar owner. In Thai law loan agreements can be either verbal or written. This case is not entirely hopeless for Greg. The legal owner of the bar needs to repay the loan to Greg. Good luck Greg. Stay strong.
I hope the truth comes out and everyone walks away with what they deserve. I've had two people accuse me of things that were complete fabrications. It's very unsettling.
You can learn a lot from your story. First of all, it`s possible to open a nice bar if you have the money, drive and discipline. But, NEVER try to save money on getting your papers right to protect your ownership. Use a lawyer.
Reminds me of the scene in Casino when Ace is told to just walk away "I cannot do that", and then...Car he is in explodes, will be reminiscent of what happens to this guy if he does not get on the next flight to Sydney and forget about legal recourse because there is none in Thailand.
Locals in any country always have the ‘home ground’ advantage. It’s boring and a hassle but a foreigner needs to get the best legal advice first if you are going to invest money outside your own country .
Please refrain from calling anyone who is critical of your decision making process, a troll. You put yourself out there with your story. You will have some supporters and some detractors.... that's the nature of social media. Your poor decisions are good lessons for all of us who follow you, to learn from. So, know that we appreciate your story.
Greg mate you mentioned lawyers had previous cases same as you, may be a good idea to ask some of their successful clients of bar disputes to get in touch as they may have some good advice.
It’s unfortunate it’s come to this. Would love to know why things went south with your partner. Seemed like you had a great thing going. In order for the bar to succeed, i think both parties need to somehow put the differences aside and reconcile. Good luck with the case at any rate.
Good luck Greg, ignore the haters and the keyboard warriors and keep fighting the good fight if that is what you believe in as you don't want any regrets in life thinking you should have done more instead of just giving up. Make sure you keep us posted with updates of what is happening.
The laws in Thailand 🇹🇭 only apply to the farangs , how many Thais do you see getting stopped by the police on beach road riding scooters without helmets.
Family,parents number one and one and herself too. Nothing more...they are sent in a mission to find a farang for his money and milk him out. If the man is looking to her as an end,she is not considering the farang as the destination. He's only a way to get there. That's it...yes it's ruthless but nobody force all these guys to fall for it. As i always said,some thais women can really thanks the dynamic of male female relationship in the Western world.
Some of the comments are crappy. Don’t take the piss at someone’s downfall, it can happen to any one of us when we least expect it. Wish you all the best Aussie. Hope it works out for you.
You are just the owner and did no work or you are the guy who built it? You said both. Project management, general contracting, and bar management are all jobs. You described doing all three in this video.
He's none of them. He's the stupid person paid for someone else's bar. He wasn't scammed or cheated or had money stolen, he offered it up from day 1. Now he's trying scam others pay for his mistakes. Can't own up and admit he fkd up
You do you mate. Don’t let the negativity get to you here. Usually the ones that comment negatively have done zero with their life anyway. At least you have given it a crack
You went directly in the mouth of the crocodile. It really amaze me all these guys who makes business like bars in the name of their tilak. Common people,you know from the start that at any day you can lose everything and being throw out. You keep fuck and forget mentality in Thailand,you can survive your way. You want deep relationship,commitment,really love,you have a high chance to get screwed.
Hey Palmy, all respect to you mate but this morning I spoke to an Aussie I know who has been living in Bangkok for a long time and who has now watched your videos. Have a good think about this legal process you're going down. You very well could be throwing good money after bad. After reading your GoFundMe it seems to me you've made some critical mistakes here, handing over money without your name on anything. I'm hearing that lawyers in Thailand like to string along farang's however the judicial system over there is weighted to Thai people. I suspect your best course of action is to fix the relationship with your ex GF somehow.
I can't stand ppl who just want to make crappy comments. Mate you're having a crack and don't listen to other ppl and their negativity. Make your own decisions, you're responsible for your life mate. Crack on. I don't mind watching your videos and following along with your story, good luck with it all.
@@Dmanz67 with respect to you, you don't know what arrangement he might have had with Ming privately that might be enforceable. He claims to have the right legal ppl there addressing the situation, at the end of the day I hope they given him advice on his potential success. We're all responsible for ourselves and good luck to him for taking a punt in life, many don't.
@@Dmanz67 I understand, I've just seen the GoFundMe, my gut tells me it's going to be difficult getting ppl to donate to this as reading the story, some obvious mistakes have been made. Not unlike anyone else who goes to start a business whether that be in Australia or Thailand.
I have made a couple of suggestions that might not be ethical, but you are not dealing with ethical people. I once said to a motorcycle renter whose motorcycle kept on stopping to either give me back my deposit and money for the extra days or I will leave this motorcycle out in the jungle and fly out. I got my money back.
Why would you co-own a bar with someone who is just your girlfriend, someone you are not even married to??! You are not married, so you have no financial rights!! 🤣😂
If you owned the bar you'd be in control of it, Sir. If you were smart you'd pay her THB 200,000 . Go back home save the money and pay her for pain & suffering.
Hey mate, sorry to hear about your situation, my friend in phuket went through the same thing, he's American thou, good news is you might be ok cause he got a letter from the owner of the bar that he leased 51% went to his Thai girl friend the owner wrote that he the American paid the full amount for the lease and the judge said yes she owns 51% of what she put in which is nothing so she had to leave with nothing and the American kept his bar and the owner (Thai) knows that the American will pay rent every month on time but the Thai lady will argue, haggle not pay on time so catch up with the owner and you should be sweet.....
Some bros were never "investing" in a bar for cash in return. They didn't need the cash. They were investing in the $ex trafficking industry. They didn't want a cash return. They wanted a $ex return. I'm not saying that's the case here but it may be, even without his knowledge. His "partner" could be a mamasan without him knowing it. This is happening all over Thai/Philippines and bro here needs to WAKE UP!
I’ve known Greg for a few years, met him in person and I can say this, Greg is one of the most genuine, honest and trustworthy people I’ve ever met. Not only am I glad that I can call him my friend, I’m proud that we’re friends. I’ll stand beside you mate. Always got your back my brother.

Stop saying it’s your bar it’s hers and you are the atm Stop thinking about your going to get it back dreaming Good luck The lawyer is on there side cut ure loss and move on
Use to live in bang saray. I had perfect balance of nature and 🐈. I met a non bargirl who insisted we moved to Hua Hin as she clearly didn't trust me from taking the occasional bar girl which was a fair assessment but my 2 years there were great
Best of luck mate unfortunately ❤ can be costly don't worry your not the only man I'm in pattaya at the moment if you want to meet up for a beer and a feed reply back 😊 !
It’s a dream guys relax. Even if you lose. The experience way cheaper then doing it in Australia. So pretend you paid for an education. I lost a house and a bike business and a bar. But it’s all good. Bank took everything in the end. soldiers keep moving till we free 😂💪👍👏👏
So which Thai owned this business with you? A foreigner cannot own 100% of a Thai business, unless he obtains an Alien Business Operator Permit is acquired. It is virtually impossible to acquire one of these, so this business in reality was not all yours.
To be fair to Palmy, it does address what he wrote in the title. I think constructive criticism is fair (I did the same myself to Palmy in one of his recent uploads), and certainly warranted from time to time; however, abuse and making false and outlandish statements is ridiculous, and there'sabsolutely no need for it (that's not directed at you, user-pp9... but directed at those making such threats and accusations).
Sadly mate. When you put yourself out there on RUclips. The toxic under element that will troll you. They do it to gain a reaction. It took me 4 years on here to realise if you don't react you cut their oxygen. Good luck with your legal battle and keep up the interesting content mate
It's a shame you're in the predicament you're in. I think you've got the right mindset about dealing with it. Like another commenter said when you publicize yourself on youtube, you throw yoir hat into the ring with good and bad people and it seems like the bad people have the loudest voices. Part of life.

It really amaze me all these guys who makes business like bars in the name of their tilak.
Common people,you know from the start that at any day you can lose everything and being throw out.
You keep fuck and forget mentality in Thailand,you can survive your way.
You want deep relationship,commitment,really love,you have a high chance to get screwed.
Hey Palmy, all respect to you mate but this morning I spoke to an Aussie I know who has been living in Bangkok for a long time and who has now watched your videos. Have a good think about this legal process you're going down. You very well could be throwing good money after bad. After reading your GoFundMe it seems to me you've made some critical mistakes here, handing over money without your name on anything. I'm hearing that lawyers in Thailand like to string along farang's however the judicial system over there is weighted to Thai people. I suspect your best course of action is to fix the relationship with your ex GF somehow.
I can't stand ppl who just want to make crappy comments. Mate you're having a crack and don't listen to other ppl and their negativity. Make your own decisions, you're responsible for your life mate. Crack on. I don't mind watching your videos and following along with your story, good luck with it all.
@@Dmanz67 with respect to you, you don't know what arrangement he might have had with Ming privately that might be enforceable. He claims to have the right legal ppl there addressing the situation, at the end of the day I hope they given him advice on his potential success. We're all responsible for ourselves and good luck to him for taking a punt in life, many don't.
@@Dmanz67 I understand, I've just seen the GoFundMe, my gut tells me it's going to be difficult getting ppl to donate to this as reading the story, some obvious mistakes have been made. Not unlike anyone else who goes to start a business whether that be in Australia or Thailand.
I have made a couple of suggestions that might not be ethical, but you are not dealing with ethical people. I once said to a motorcycle renter whose motorcycle kept on stopping to either give me back my deposit and money for the extra days or I will leave this motorcycle out in the jungle and fly out.
I got my money back.
Why would you co-own a bar with someone who is just your girlfriend, someone you are not even married to??! You are not married, so you have no financial rights!! 🤣😂
If you’re on a retirement visa you can’t get an income from a bar and it’s in the exs name
Im confused you still want money from subscribes for the 200k or has thar plan gone.
Green as grass 😂 I’ll be avoiding Wombat if you’re live streaming! Don’t know what Steve is thinking of!
If you owned the bar you'd be in control of it, Sir. If you were smart you'd pay her THB 200,000 . Go back home save the money and pay her for pain & suffering.
Good to see you and good luck with everything
Enjoyed your videos and stories. Best of luck. What camera/mic do you use, particularly on the bike?That looked good.
I met Greg in Hua-hin and found him to be a straight up geezer..
Hey mate, sorry to hear about your situation, my friend in phuket went through the same thing, he's American thou, good news is you might be ok cause he got a letter from the owner of the bar that he leased 51% went to his Thai girl friend the owner wrote that he the American paid the full amount for the lease and the judge said yes she owns 51% of what she put in which is nothing so she had to leave with nothing and the American kept his bar and the owner (Thai) knows that the American will pay rent every month on time but the Thai lady will argue, haggle not pay on time so catch up with the owner and you should be sweet.....
😂😂😂😂dream on he has no paperwork related to bar. Its HERS NEVER WAS HIS 😂😂😂
Sorry to hear you going through all this bullshit mate. I'll be there in May so we'll catch for a beer.
I don't understand the basis for your reclaiming anything. It sounds like you invested into a property that you had no formal ownership of.
Some bros were never "investing" in a bar for cash in return. They didn't need the cash. They were investing in the $ex trafficking industry. They didn't want a cash return. They wanted a $ex return. I'm not saying that's the case here but it may be, even without his knowledge. His "partner" could be a mamasan without him knowing it. This is happening all over Thai/Philippines and bro here needs to WAKE UP!
Best on your journey mate enjoying your content
I’ve known Greg for a few years, met him in person and I can say this, Greg is one of the most genuine, honest and trustworthy people I’ve ever met. Not only am I glad that I can call him my friend, I’m proud that we’re friends. I’ll stand beside you mate. Always got your back my brother.
Perhaps you can bail him out? Talk is cheap
@@jeffuk3940 and if I could , I would. As I said, one of the most genuine people I’ve ever had the pleasure to meet, sorry my response didn’t get the rise you were after.
@@drabo01he's a scammer. He's been scammed now he's trying scam others. You believe him that much you have not personally financially helped him. The reason for that is you know its money down drain
@@jeffuk3940he may not have the money to bail him out. Stupid comment.
How about you be silent partner lol😢😢
you cant seriously be asking people to donate to a problem you started. i started following a while ago because i was curious on the setup of a bar in thailand
He's a scammer
👍🏿good luck to you Gregg, break ups are never easy, hope the lawyers perform! Ignore the noise 🥰🤞🏾
Good luck , love your resilience, don’t back down, you will regret that , good luck my friend 🙏
😂😂😂😂
This has got to be a joke,some guy with 3 Million baht opening a bar with a Thai lady he hardly knows.Please tell everyone this is just a video for laughs warning people What not to do,how can it be serious and how does he keep a Straight face....You nearly had me convinced it was serious but ok you win i get the Joke...Thanks
3MB is pocket change..not retirement money.
@@jim6315 3 Million is a dribble man,the Guy has lost the Plot and he keeps on saying... My Bar....
@@shaun7638 it's sad seeing someone being so dumb. He's believing lawyers who will only rinse him. He's obviously not learned from his previous mistakes. Only one way this ends. He leaves Thailand, other option hopefully doesn't happen
@@jim6315 Yes he does one thing which is ridiculous then going to lose a load more money.
He did a video before interviewing a guy who lost loads of money with a sort of Smirk on his face as if to say do not be so Stupid guys and yet he is doing the same.
@@shaun7638 he's most stupid person on RUclips. He's lost plot completely
Good on ya for being persistent, hope it all works out.
Whoevers name is on the lease owns the bar , his intent is irrelevant.
You should’ve stuck to the sandwich shop 😅😅
Stop saying it’s your bar it’s hers and you are the atm
Stop thinking about your going to get it back dreaming
Good luck
The lawyer is on there side cut ure loss and move on
I'm not a begger guys. Ps please donate to the channel links in the description 😂😂
@@tonyhudson8698Learn to spell losing you Muppet 😂
@@tonyhudson8698A loser is someone that doesn't know how to spell LOSING 😂
Why does every foreigner that wants to open a bar
Thinks that they're not gonna get scammed 😂
Do a deal with landlord. Dont pay rent by due date then landlord takes over than you get it back via landlord deal.
You only retired here with 3 million baht, that is definitely not enough, looks like you planned to fail.
Use to live in bang saray. I had perfect balance of nature and 🐈. I met a non bargirl who insisted we moved to Hua Hin as she clearly didn't trust me from taking the occasional bar girl which was a fair assessment but my 2 years there were great
Best of luck mate unfortunately ❤ can be costly don't worry your not the only man I'm in pattaya at the moment if you want to meet up for a beer and a feed reply back 😊 !
Hi Greg ,stay strong ( kia Kaha) bro.Over in April so will pop in to Kiwi Wombat.Regards Rod from NZ.
It’s a dream guys relax. Even if you lose. The experience way cheaper then doing it in Australia. So pretend you paid for an education.
I lost a house and a bike business and a bar. But it’s all good. Bank took everything in the end.
soldiers keep moving till we free 😂💪👍👏👏
Hope to catch up soon Greg. Looking forward to the live stream on Sunday.
Ignore these clowns Greg..they get off on seeing the pain of others
3 million baht is a drop in the Ocean, with out any other income or assets
❤
So which Thai owned this business with you? A foreigner cannot own 100% of a Thai business, unless he obtains an Alien Business Operator Permit is acquired. It is virtually impossible to acquire one of these, so this business in reality was not all yours.
Greg I'm sorry for your troubles mate. One of the first things a Thai woman does when she ends a relationship is to had mouth you everywhere.
that's an understatement
Right o matey 👍 where's that 🎤oi oi oi
Pride before a fall.Please move on and enjoy your time in Thailand.
Hi Greg
good luck with your bar.
Ignore the faceless anonymous trolls and box on .
Cheers Chris
Good Luck Blue, you’ll need it
a video that doesn't explain anything
To be fair to Palmy, it does address what he wrote in the title.
I think constructive criticism is fair (I did the same myself to Palmy in one of his recent uploads), and certainly warranted from time to time; however, abuse and making false and outlandish statements is ridiculous, and there'sabsolutely no need for it (that's not directed at you, user-pp9... but directed at those making such threats and accusations).
Sadly mate. When you put yourself out there on RUclips. The toxic under element that will troll you. They do it to gain a reaction. It took me 4 years on here to realise if you don't react you cut their oxygen.
Good luck with your legal battle and keep up the interesting content mate
I wish you the best
Greg stay strong mate I was happy to drink with you at your bar 🍻 over the Christmas period and to all those crazy people who don't no you poor them 😢
It's a shame you're in the predicament you're in. I think you've got the right mindset about dealing with it.
Like another commenter said when you publicize yourself on youtube, you throw yoir hat into the ring with good and bad people and it seems like the bad people have the loudest voices. Part of life.
As long as u have receipts and proof of purchases which I believe u have u have a 50/50 chance, good luck. Hope u win for the farangs.
How many farangs have beat thais here ? There's a 3 day rule and rent everything for a reason.
@@jim6315 agree. Doesn’t give everyone the right to take the piss.
@@GC_London not taking piss. Trying give him advice which he obviously isn't listening to. He's got lawyers involved now only gona loose more money. He's not prepared sell own bike fund this, he's begging others pay. If he thinks he can win he would sell bike fund this, him not prepared sell bike tells own story. Even he knows he can't win.
@@GC_London not taking the piss. Trying give advice. If he actually listened he wouldn't be in position he's in now don't you agree?
The lawyers are rubbing their hands 🙌 because they know dam well you haven’t got a leg 🦵 to stand on !!
Good luck but don’t throw good money after bad !!
Good luck with the lawyers get out while you still got some money if you have any left
Sounds like you done fucked up?! Hope you can sort it out. Not sure I’d trust any Thai Lawyer….. been to the bar once. Loud drunk farangs, screaming staff, and my seafood platter was greasy. But place seems busy all day everyday……
