Granted, the LTR visa is applicable to wealthy retirees and "global citizens", but more importantly to highly skilled professionals who will work and contribute to the local skill-base and society.
LTR is for people with a ton of money/income. Elite doesn't have a million USD asset requirement or $80,000 USD income requirement. If I'm 40 years old and have an income of $4000 per month from investments, my only option to "retire" in Thailand is the Elite card. Or get married to a Thai.
