Hi,

you're kidding - you don't really mean what you are saying; you are joking

double the money - have twice as much money as when you started (In reality, this usually involves something risky, and you might LOSE your money instead of getting more.)

you've got a point - (at least some of) what you are saying makes sense

For the definitions, go to any Thai-English dictionary. If you want to look online, try www.dictionary.com or www.m-w.com.
