Im in need of information

for the last 2 weeks ive been looking at bars around a few cities in Thailand in the inerest to buy one

ive got a Thai girlfriend who is in the business (no she’s not a bar girl) and can pretty much hook me up no problems at all
my dilemma is that it’ll be very very hard and time comsuming to get a work permit but my girlfriend said that we could get married , she’s got a good heart (which is rare in Thialnd) and i like her alot but marriage is a big jump

what i need is to know if marriage well get me a work permit with no problems ??

or could get her to sign the papers and i do visa runs for the first few months and wait for a good time to get married , or would i get screwed by the police

i know many people do it and i know many people dont like it but i want to stay with her and this seems the only way (plus i would love to own a bar)

any other info would be very much apprieated

thx
