How can I get a Thai retirement visa ??

8 years ago
I am a U.S. born U.S. citizen, who has been living, legally, as a tourist in another country for many years. I am over 50, single and financially well off'
Because I don't have residency where live, the Consul General at my local Thai Consulate told me that they couldn't issue me a visa and said that I would have to go to a Thai Consulate in the U.S.
I would like to move to Chiang Mai. Is it possible for me to get a retirement visa there without having to go to the U.S.?
The Thai website states "You must be holding nationality or permanet residence of the country of application." I'm not exactly sure what this means.
