Yes her father was Jamaican. How did the blacks in Jamaica get there? Same way as in the US. She was born and grew up in Oakland. Ever been there? It sure isn't exactly pale over there. I'm pretty sure she identified as black (afro-american) growing up. She attended Howard University which is a HBCU. (Historically Black College / University) She is 1/2 black, after all.

Just as an aside, there aren't that many blacks in the US that don't have some amount of "plantation blood". Should they be called frauds also??

Maybe you don't remember the Democratic primaries. Harris was ousted because her record was too tough on crime. I know you don't believe it but I remember it, she was a star after the first debate because she stuck a knife in Biden. She became the instant super-star but after that Tulsi Gabbert gutted her on her record as a overly tough District Attorney and later Attorney General for California. She wasn't able to defend against those charges.

Not the greatest judgement dating a married man. But we all be fuckin' someone. As to Willie helping her? She won the election for District Attorney of SF and she won reelection unopposed. I think Senator Diane Feinstein's support had more to do with helping her than anything else.

If you say so. I think of her as the prototypical vice-president. Rarely seen and even more rarely heard.

Total BS. 7 years as District Attorney of SF, 6 years as Attorney General of California, 4 years as US Senator from California. All of those are elected positions. That would give her more experience in politics than many of our Presidents. And a hell of a lot more than the last clown.

Oddly enough you don't seem to understand that the VP doesn't "set policy" the president does.Either way, she is incredibly ineffective and brings no talent to the table. Interviews are totally a joke. She will never get my vote.

So where have they gone? Or do they no longer occasionally need to make money that way?This is the same chump that wrote several months ago her friend offered 3 million cop to some cow at La Isla and said "good for him".

Now she's whining that other "fake ballers" are ruining the scene for her LOL.

I'm pretty sure she identified as black (afro-american) growing up. She attended Howard University which is a HBCU. (Historically Black College / University) She is 1/2 black, after all.He argued that she is not African American. You are arguing that she is 1/2 Black (Although I think it was her father that was half Black, which would make her less than half Black?) These are 2 different arguments in which you are both correct. She is actually Jamaican Indian. She was raised by an Indian mother with Indian culture, not African American culture, despite where they lived. (I saw them on some cooking show making Indian food together, not African American food.).

Most of the reason that she was able to climb aboard the African American train is because she went to a Black school and pledged a historically Black sorority (and she is a dead ringer for my African American cousin). Most people figure Black school, Black people. But that is not true at all. Having attended a Black school myself, I know that not everyone there was Black or African American. We had some White people (can't get federal money by having race restrictions) and we had a shitload of people from the Caribbean Islands that were of Indian descent as is VP Harris.

It is a funny thing that out of the millions of Black Americans that are descendants of American slaves, America goes out of her way to install high ranking politicians such as Obama and Harris that are not and says here are some Black people to appease you. To me that should be a slap in the face to African Americans. But most are happy to accept and tout what they are given, nevermind it being a false narrative.

P.S. I never use the term African American. I prefer Black or Black American. But it was important to use it here in order to differentiate Blacks Americans of American slave descent and those that descended from other parts of the diaspora.

Whatever you say buddy. I'm sure your irrationality would change 180 degrees if she put an R next to her name. Oh and before you ask it. I'm not Willie Brown.

So why do I defend her? For some years I worked in the Securities Industry. (But not in California) One of the big problems was that many state and municipal investment managers started taking "incentives" to learn about the derivatives markets (options basically) and they started making outrageously risky moves which nearly bankrupted some municipalities and Harris as attorney general pushed for and got through legislation than prohibited or drastically curtailed the amount of risk that cities and counties could take on. When they started to lose revenue, they were forced to adhere to a budget and cut salaries or positions. This was critical in helping California from continuously having to bail out counties and cities that went bankrupt.It's quite funny you would say that. I'm actually more aligned with the democrats than with the Republicans. I am by no means a Trump supporter or anything of the like with all their fake news QAnon conspiracy bullshit, etc. That being said, I think Kamala Harris is a Joke and Biden is old and senile. I actually liked Bernie Sanders and think he would have made a much better president than Biden, but that doesn't matter now. Oh and I'm glad Petro won the election too.

Trump was married and fucking porn-stars and playmates. I did hear you guys belly-aching about that. So what bothered you more? The color of her skin or who she shared her vagina with?Throughout history women have been known to get their come-up-ins because of certain men they fuck. What higher status, wealth, or anything is usually in it for a man because of the women he fucked? (Shout out to that pioneer Kevin Federline.).

What did Trump gain by fucking a porno chick? Bragging rights to his friends? What did VP Harris gain by fucking WB? A political career that led straight to the office of VP?

The color of her skin or who she shared her vagina with?First of all, it has not been proven that Trump fucked porn-stars and playmates, and he hasn't admitted to it. But he probably did. If he did, did that elevate his position in anything? It's a completely different situation than that of Kamala. What bothers me is her total ineptness as VP, not the color of her skin. Condoleezza Rice is an accomplished person, and didn't embarrass the US on the world stage. That can't be said for Kamala Harris.

I don't like Condoleeza as IMO she's a complete war-monger, but when you listen to her talk, it's obvious she is very bright. When I listen to Kamala talk, all I can think of is ineptness and how the f did she make it to Vice President. Maybe it's persistence, maybe the right person helped her, maybe she just "fell upward" (whatever the expression is).

Though it's not the norm, there are people who make it very far in life who aren't that bright. From both sides of the aisle, I give you George W. Bush and Joe Biden (young Biden didn't come across as intelligent at all and he's obviously decayed with age). Two great examples of guys who fell upward all the way to possibly the most powerful person on the Planet.

Morons who will do what they are told. With no worthwhile CV, like an Eisenhower, to show. Boris Johnson is an obvious philanderer, clown, opportunist but the media, which is also controlled, love him.

Hunter Biden, no exposure etc.

This is the same chump that wrote several months ago her friend offered 3 million cop to some cow at La Isla and said "good for him".

Now she's whining that other "fake ballers" are ruining the scene for her LOL.Let's get something straight. All I did was report an observation.

I don't care how much girls charge if they're quality girls.

My point was that the quality of girls has tremendously declined along with the ambiance of lleras.

And yes I know fake ballers when I see them.

I am not mongering anymore since I have a Colombian model GF who I see every month.

And oh BTW before we get into the "she's only in it for the money" I would personally like to brag to you that she just recently bought me 1000 $ pair of Versace sneakers and 400 $ Burberry shirt for my birthday with her own money. And before you get a chance to say they're fake she wired my friend in America the money so he can use his CC and deliver it to me directly from the sites to surprise me on my actual bday.

Since most if not all your posts on this site about women are demeaning and you think they're all worth 20 $ for pussy etc along with the fact your posts are always useless just thought I'the throw a little something more for you to hate on me about.

But hey you do you bud!! Lmao.

I love your situation and am happy for you but I am afraid your response is wasted on that lug nut. That's like trying to tell an ant in the depths of a mound where his place is in the solar system. That is beyond his comprehension or ability to relate. His brain will short-circuit into some compensatory default mode.

Reached another milestone with Catgirl. As you may recall, she is bisexual. But up until now, I had to use the girls she picked for our three-ways. Finally, she realized that some of my girls are gems who have been with me now for over two years, and she opened up to the idea of including them. The other night, Scarlet and Catgirl spent the night, and it was transcendent. They got along so well at times it was if I was not even in the room. But don't worry, that situation only lasted for a few minutes.

I thought Catgirl was making a video of me with her phone while I was banging Scarlet "en cuatro" or doggy style, when in fact she was on a video call with her mega-rich TikTok boyfriend from the Dominican Republic. She told me to speak into the phone and tell him what I was doing. I said in the best Spanish I could muster, "I am fucking my Number Two girlfriend while the love of my live and Number One girlfriend, watches". He laughed so hard and told the three of us to get on a jet that morning and fly to his estate in the DR. Without missing a pump, I thanked him and told him we would take a rain-check.

Jajajjajaajajajjaajjaaaaaaa. If it weren't for family and friends, I would never go back to the US of A.

I am that kid in school, if you told me to sit down, I would run around the room. If you told me to shut-up, I would tell jokes about the teacher. I think I will double-down and start posting twice daily reports here, until such time admin bans me for life here, which I would not be surprised if they do, jajajjaa.

But lately, this forum is full of reports that are not helpful. I get all of you guys are trying to get the most females, or are trying to save a few bucks, or are trying to grab a few facebook girls. I get it. It's a pissing competition.

Whatever.

I don't care about that.

I was thinking about going to Colombia, because obviously it's super hot right now. I get there are a lot of noobs going to Colombia, but it's probably because tickets to Asia are so expensive right now. Therefore, there is a Colombia proliferation.

I'm looking to monger cheap and easy.

I don't want BS, and I want it to be simple.

I'm thinking escort agencies in Colombia are probably the way to go. Lots of you guys are getting spiked drinks or scammed. I think for security reasons this probably puts you in a safer place.

Additionally, Street girls are always a crap shoot. Sure, I get a few of you guys really know your way around town. Awesome, for you guys.

Can anyone here please give me useful information on good escort agencies and how to successfully navigate the airport to Medellin trip would be greatly appreciated.

If I have to spend an extra $10, I don't care. I want this to be an awesome trip, and I would rather not report back to you guys another failed attempt.

Thanks. Otherwise I'm going to Guadalajara, because people on that forum make sense.

But lately, this forum is full of reports that are not helpful. I get all of you guys are trying to get the most females, or are trying to save a few bucks, or are trying to grab a few facebook girls. I get it. It's a pissing competition.

Whatever.

I don't care about that. Here's the thing. If you don't care about something, don't mention it. For example, if you don't want a girl to put her fist up your ass, don't spend 5 minutes talking about girls sticking their fists up your ass. She might jump to the wrong conclusion which could alter your appreciation of the session.

When you say "lately", what are you comparing lately to? I've been here for several years and it's like a soap opera, the plots constantly repeat, only the characters change.

Therefore, there is a Columbia proliferation.I'd give up on visiting Columbia right now, it is super hot, and humid, but that's typical for this time of year in Missouri. Plus, from what I've seen the girls are a bit of a disappointment. Colombia might be a better destination.

Additionally, Street girls are always a crap shoot. Sure, I get a few of you guys really know your way around town. Awesome, for you guys.This is the point where just a tiny bit of research would have served you well.

If you want it cheap and easy, there are many casas. They are cheap, they are easy and they eliminate the risk of getting drugged and robbed.

Sure, you can use escort agencies. You will pay more.

Depending on the agency, you may have a long wait for your girl to arrive, you may end up with a different girl than the one you selected, or you may be required to pay in advance by bank transfer.


Can anyone here please give me useful information on good escort agencies and how to successfully navigate the airport to Medellin trip would be greatly appreciated.I just happen to know an escort agency. They aren't cheap. They may not have a girl available that appeals to you at the price you want to pay. The service offered might not match the service desired. However, they won't catfish you and they won't keep you waiting all night. However, like most businesses, you need to contact them at a reasonable hour to set up your date.

Once you're a paid subscriber here, send me a pm and I'll give you the number.

Navigating the trip to Medellin will be difficult. You'll need a sextant and a compass, and if it's cloudy, you're screwed. Leave the navigation to a taxi driver who already knows the way.

After you get through immigration and customs, walk past anyone who approaches you and says "taxi", they aren't taxis and are the most expensive option. You can identify a taxi by answering 2 questions:

1. Is it outside the terminal? Taxis aren't allowed inside the terminal.

2. Is it a car which has the word "Taxi" prominently displayed?

The current rate for a white taxi from the airport has been reported several times in response to your post. Approach the driver at the front of the line and ask "cuanto cuesta?" If he gives a response within the range you're willing to pay, get in, otherwise go down the line until you find one charging the correct price.


If I have to spend an extra $10, I don't care. I want this to be an awesome trip, and I would rather not report back to you guys another failed attempt.

Thanks. Otherwise I'm going to Guadalajara, because people on that forum make sense.It appears that you've never reported a trip, failed or otherwise. Therefore there is no chance you'll report another failed trip.

Here's the really useful advice:

If nobody is doing things one way, there are probably some good reasons. Being the only guy wearing flip-flops on the dairy farm doesn't make you a visionary or an innovator. It just means you are going to end up with shit between your toes.

And:

Going to McDonald's and threatening to go to Burger King if they don't get you a Whopper, is probably not going to get you a Whopper. None of us get paid by the number of noobs we convince to visit Medellin.

Thanks. Otherwise I'm going to Guadalajara, because people on that forum make sense.You are amazing!

You want to monger cheap and easy but have not done any research to make that happen. Example is the taxi or bus from the airport to town. That is talked about repeatedly about every 3 weeks.

You say we make no sense. But you say you want cheap but want to go the most expensive route using escorts. What a contradiction. You are willing to spend an extra $10 dollars for an awesome trip. Bad news. Awesome costs a whole lot more than that, especially with an escort.

I can not remember the last time anyone on the Medellin forum talked about escorts, but was mentioned a few times in some of the other cities. Try Google. "Medellin" and "Escorts." Good luck with that.

You do not want BS and want it simple. Well no matter what route you take to get girls there is always plenty of BS even for the veterans here. Just a page or two back you can read about the newbie who has not had much luck on FB with all the contacts he made early on. It is you are first time here so there will be an abundance of BS and difficulty.

Cheap, easy, safe, no BS. I think you should be shopping for a blow up doll.

e useful information on good escort agencies and how to successfully navigate the airport to Medellin trip would be greatly appreciated.
Pay 90 k COP for a taxi from the airport to your hotel. Standard fare, worth the extra cost over the bus / shared taxi, especially after a long flight.

Best option for you would be probably be the casas. Check out the map for a bunch of them. You walk in and have a seat. A dozen or so women quickly parade through, say their name, and then disappear. After they've all shown, you say the name of who you want, pay the fee, then go do the deed on site. If you didn't see anyone you liked, you can pay the cover charge / viewing fee and leave. Another alternative is the many strip clubs where pretty much everyone you see can be had onsite (or you can pay the bar fine and go out).

Like anywhere else, quality and cost vary.

Used to be that 90% of the tussi made in MDE was exported to the rave German market, but I believe more and more of it is staying in this country. When I first heard of tussi in 2019, there was virtually none of it available in the USA. Apparently now there is a growing market there, I don't know. I have heard of at least ten different kinds of tussi and there is stuff out there that can kill you, but most of it is safe, non-addicting with little or no side effects.

Any of my posts here about tussi and recreational drugs have been purely fictional, and are for entertainment purposes only.

I do not condone the use of illicit drugs and would never buy, sell, transport or use any illegal substances in any countries of the world.

(The low peso might have something to do with the change in administration. } Yes that is the main reason. People who control the rates are afraid of the new Pres being a communist. This was mentioned before the election that if this man wins the pesos would take a hit.

Funny first I used to divide by 2 then 3 then 4. Now maybe 5 will be the new division point in the near future.You just ran into a Dem lecturing you on currencies. In this case, there are global moves and local moves.

Viliany's concerns are not reflected by the upper classes my GF runs in. To a person, they are afraid. The day after Gustavo won she texted me and said, "I hope he respects private property."

The former president Uribe is very popular, and she told me the new president Gustavo met with Uribe, and they had a good talk, and that was supposedly reassuring to the higher classes in Colombia per her. Thing is I didn't see the COP go up at all after the meet.

Thing is when you compare the dollar to other currencies in the region you do not see this type of fall. The Brazilian real, Peruvian sol, Mexican peso have not moved at all while Colombia has plummeted. This is a country specific issue and I think it reflects that fear. People are selling Colombian assets and currency to get dollars.

Viliany's lecturing on the law is cute. The laws on the books are very often not enforced. Worse, I have seen Hugo Chavez and Morales of Bolivia cut through Constitutional laws like a knife through butter. Both changed laws such that they could be president for life. The issue to me is not what the law is but how people react when extreme changes are attempted. Are the people going to revolt if this guy is a Chavez want to be?

And I hope this guy Gustavo is not as anti-oil as Biden is. Gustavo campaigned on no more oil drilling. If he is serious about that, COP at 5,000 is a sure thing. Part of the Chavez-Morales hand book is to take over the energy companies and put your people in so there is not a funded opposition against you.

Chavez drove Venezuelan oil production into the ground, and in the five years before Morales took over natural gas production, Bolivia went from 2 billion cubic meters of nat gas to 10. After he took over, production barely moved, and in both countries, there is a ton of nat gas and oil.

Someone will have to explain to me how taking an axe to your most successful export makes sense.

Elvis always has his "expert" opinion on every conceivable topic. Of course, logical fallacies, lack of analytical skills, inability to research anything and politicizing everything are the hallmarks of his writings. Let's see if I'm right.


Viliany's concerns are not reflected by the upper classes my GF runs in. To a person, they are afraid. The day after Gustavo won she texted me and said, "I hope he respects private property."Your "GF" according to you was someone you met on Seeking Arrangement who was selling her lady-parts to support herself and her child. I'm actually happy for you that you found love, and I'm sure she loves your wallet just as much. But now she runs in the upper classes? I nearly choked on my coffee when I read that line.


The former president Uribe is very popular, and she told me the new president Gustavo met with Uribe, and they had a good talk, and that was supposedly reassuring to the higher classes in Colombia per her. Thing is I didn't see the COP go up at all after the meet.Alvaro Uribe was (not is) very popular. If you want to read about his career this article gives a brief synopsis. In Colombia today the word "corruption" is frequently heard and it is often used to "describe Uribismo". Today, Uribe is recognized for what he was and is. Just another corrupt politician.

https://colombiareports.com/alvaro-uribe/


Thing is when you compare the dollar to other currencies in the region you do not see this type of fall. The Brazilian real, Peruvian sol, Mexican peso have not moved at all while Colombia has plummeted. This is a country specific issue and I think it reflects that fear. People are selling Colombian assets and currency to get dollars.If you look at the last 3 months (2nd quarter 2022) what do we see?

Brazil 13.8% drop vs dollar.

Colombia 19.9% drop.

Argentina 12.8% drop.

Chile 21.7% drop.

Japan 10.5% drop.

Euro 8.0% drop.

Britain 9.7% drop.

Peru 5.4% drop.

Mexico 3.5% drop.

I think the pattern is pretty clear. The higher interest rate on US Government securities (Fed raising rates) has made the dollar very strong against almost all of the world's currencies and in addition inflation is having a deleterious effect.

Colombia sends 31% of its exports to the US, while Brazil and Peru both send about 13% to the US. Which probably accounts for some of the lower currency decline.

It reflects something I've said before: There are too many factors affecting currency trading to point at one single thing.


Viliany's lecturing on the law is cute. The laws on the books are very often not enforced. Worse, I have seen Hugo Chavez and Morales of Bolivia cut through Constitutional laws like a knife through butter. Both changed laws such that they could be president for life. The issue to me is not what the law is but how people react when extreme changes are attempted. Are the people going to revolt if this guy is a Chavez want to be?"Unimpressed, Uribe loyalists again tried to amend the constitution so the president could run for a third time, but this time the constitutional court stepped in and Uribe was forced to resign in 2010."

This is from the source referenced above. Colombia's Constitutional court blunted the "knife through butter" and Uribe was prevented from running for a third term. Apparently Elvis doesn't understand Colombia very well. It isn't the same as Venezuela or Bolivia (or Cuba for that matter). Here is a link for an explanation about Colombia's Constitutional Court, should Elvis want to learn the how this Court works. It probably does a more complete and accurate job than his "GF".

Someone will have to explain to me how taking an axe to your most successful export makes sense.I'm not interested in expanding the argument into Venezuela. I would note for you, Elvis, that Chavez was far more popular in his country than Uribe ever was in Colombia. And Chavez died in 2013 and Venezuela's descent into a military supported dictatorship isn't even a remote possibility for Colombia. Bolivia is a very backward country and isn't even remotely comparable to Colombia.

I would note that Petro is a very bright, well-educated man. I'm sure he isn't looking to emulate the policies of failed states. His priorities seem to center around increasing the minimum wage and pensions to a livable level and modernizing the tax code so that the richest citizens pay their fair share.

Why would anyone listen to you after that? That is a great logical analysis. She is a cheap slum ridden WG because that is what you want to believe. Sorry, fool, your notion of her is totally wrong.

And just so you know, trading is based on sentiment. Whose sentiment has been right so far? Hers or yours dumb ass? You are the one saying everything was going to be fine in Colombia with Gustavo, and the currency there has fallen off a cliff.


If you look at the last 3 months (2nd quarter 2022) what do we see?

Brazil 13.8% drop vs dollar.

Colombia 19.9% drop.Why 3 months? Colombia is at an all time low versus the dollar. Mexico, Peru, and Brazil are not. I grant you Chile is at an all time low but Chile is a much smaller economy than Mexico or Brazil.


Colombia sends 31% of its exports to the US, while Brazil and Peru both send about 13% to the US. Which probably accounts for some of the lower currency decline.That has nothing to do with anything.


It reflects something I've said before: There are too many factors affecting currency trading to point at one single thing.Wrong. At this point, all that matters is fear. You do not see currency moves like this based on fundamentals. Contrary to your stupid ass, I know when financial moves are rational and they are emotional. I did not share my "expertise" but what I knew of the feelings of Colombians.

And Chavez died in 2013 and Venezuela's descent into a military supported dictatorship isn't even a remote possibility for Colombia.So Chavez was not a dictator? Again, you are not reassuring anyone of anything.


Bolivia is a very backward country and isn't even remotely comparable to Colombia.Again, that is not reassuring. Gustavo followed the Chavez, Morales playbook to get elected.


I'm sure he isn't looking to emulate the policies of failed states. His priorities seem to center around increasing the minimum wage and pensions to a livable level and modernizing the tax code so that the richest citizens pay their fair share.You think your being sure means anything to anyone?

What pol does not run on similar BS? Here is the thing that matters.

Is Gustavo going to fuck up Colombia's oil industry like he said he was going to or leave it alone?

Because if someone is selling Colombian assets and converting them into dollars because they know Gustavo is going to fuck up Colombia's #1 export, then this panic selling of COP is NOT fear driven but completely fucking rational.

You swear she wasn't a cheap street-walker in El Centro. OK I'll take your word for this one thing (everything else you say requires verification) but the difference between a street-walker and an escort is really only volume.

And just so you know, trading is based on sentiment. Whose sentiment has been right so far? Hers or yours dumb ass? You are the one saying everything was going to be fine in Colombia with Gustavo, and the currency there has fallen off a cliff.Yes, Elvis. Trading is often based on sentiment. But sentiment about what? The strong dollar? Colombia's rate of inflation? Colombia's economy? Petro's presidency? Which of a dozen factors is the "sentiment" focused on. And does it change from day to day?

As to whose sentiment has been right so far? What are you talking about? I live here. As far as I'm concerned a strong dollar / weak peso is just lovely. I don't need the favorable exchange to enjoy a great life here. But it doesn't hurt either jajajaja.

I do think everything will be fine with Petro but that is neither here nor there. The discussion (try stay on topic Elvis) is about what is causing the peso to be so weak vs the dollar. My point is that there are a bunch of factors involved and only a simpleton thinks that it is all about Petro's election.


Why 3 months? Colombia is at an all time low versus the dollar. Mexico, Peru, and Brazil are not. I grant you Chile is at an all time low but Chile is a much smaller economy than Mexico or Brazil.You are so bad at analysis. Did you ever go to college? Ever take statistics or any kind of analytical courses?

Petro's election came this year. So how has the Colombian peso done this year? It has weakened by 13.5% YTD. That is less than the S&P 500 has declined YTD. Oh and BTW since I'm sure you don't really chose to look at things analytically.

Argentina's peso is at an all time low versus the dollar and has weakened by 24.2% YTD.

Chile's peso is at an all time low versus the dollar and has weakened by 20.7% YTD.

Japan's yen is at a 20 year low versus the dollar and has weakened by 18.7% YTD.

The Euro is at a 20 year low versus the dollar and has weakened by 12.6% YTD.

Yes Mexico, Peru and Brazil have not had the same depreciation in their currency. Yet. Which highlights my point. There are a lot of factors involved. It isn't just an election of which you don't approve.


Wrong. At this point, all that matters is fear. You do not see currency moves like this based on fundamentals. Contrary to your stupid ass, I know when financial moves are rational and they are emotional. I did not share my "expertise" but what I knew of the feelings of Colombians.Oh dear God. You are the world's foremost authority on everything. At least in your own narcissistic mind. I'm surprised you haven't told us how you forsaw all these currency declines and took futures positions.


Again, that is not reassuring. Gustavo followed the Chavez, Morales playbook to get elected.This is just Elvis ramble. Why don't you show your sources?


Is Gustavo going to fuck up Colombia's oil industry like he said he was going to or leave it alone?
Because if someone is selling Colombian assets and converting them into dollars because they know Gustavo is going to fuck up Colombia's #1 export, then this panic selling of COP is NOT fear driven but completely fucking rational.I know this will come as a shock. But currency trading doesn't mean someone is selling assets and converting them into dollars. Sure there may be some of that. But what drives this rate is traders are buying dollars and selling pesos. I would bet a fair amount of those traders haven't even been to Colombia. Like I've said before. There are a lot of factors involved. Just to illustrate.

Colombia's equivalent of the Federal Reserve (Banco de la Republica) has raised the Interest rate from 3. 0% to 7. 5% this year. That is much more than the US Federal Reserve has raised rates.

These moves are designed to tighten money supply and stifle inflation. (Colombia's year over year inflation rate is running at around 9. 5% the last few months) But what happens when you raise interest rates? You slow down the economy because it costs more to borrow funds for expansion, acquisitions etc. Our Federal Reserve does the same thing to try to stifle inflation but it often leads to an economic slowdown (for a while). Clearly an economic slowdown in Colombia would cause the peso to devalue vs the US Dollar.

Ask your GF, I'm sure she could explain to you all the economic considerations that would factor into a weakening peso.

Listerine was always in their purses. It must have worked for them then and for you now. I got to laugh though thinking about those days with the sisters and now you doing the same rinse. One thing you should be aware of is giardia. Not sure if the Listerine help for that.But a user here once posted a testimonial from a beauty queen who gave over ten-thousand blowjobs with never a single even slight problem from oral sexual disease, because she used Listerine. Very compelling. Also, don't brush your teeth immediately before or after oral sex, opens up the pores and crevices of your gums.

You are so bad at analysis. Did you ever go to college? Ever take statistics or any kind of analytical courses?Don't expect him to ever answer that question, but the answer is surely no. Higher education insists on vetted sources. He either leaps to conclusions with no sources or jumps on the latest wingnut blogosphere conspiracy theories. That's why he has to spend half his days arguing in a hooker forum. Trying to defend such horseshit, and with a total lack of debating skills requires a lot of time.

What the hell is HPD?Histrionic personality disorder (HPD) is a mental health condition marked by unstable emotions, a distorted self-image and an overwhelming desire to be noticed. People with HPD often behave dramatically or inappropriately to get attention.

You swear she wasn't a cheap street-walker in El Centro. OK I'll take your word for this one thing (everything else you say requires verification) but the difference between a street-walker and an escort is really only volume.Well, you would know the centro slums and escort market better than I would. You tried to show me that you were my equal by putting up a bunch of the escorts you had been banging and then covered their faces so other guys would not recognize them. LOL. My woman is major league and you had worn out AA types at best.


I know, I know, you think you've found your own "pretty woman" but from what I hear you're no Richard Gere. More like Chris Farley.That is close, but I think my gal is a little prettier than Julia Roberts, and Chris Farley picking her up is more impressive than Richard Gere doing so.


Trading is often based on sentiment.

As to whose sentiment has been right so far? What are you talking about?Sentiment is emotions, fear and greed typically. My gal was afraid of Gustavo, and you are not. She was right, and you are wrong.


I live here.Yeah, and maybe you should talk to people who are not WGs. You might learn something.


You are so bad at analysis. Did you ever go to college? Ever take statistics or any kind of analytical courses?Uh, let's see. You are down 10% in your portfolio on the year, and I am up 40%. I did an analysis of S&P earnings and said they were coming down a month ago. Every day now, analysts are lowering projected earnings and downgrading stocks. And then there is this.


Looks like it's 4,388 for tomorrow.And COP closed at 4624 today. Maybe you should ask your college for a refund.


My point is that there are a bunch of factors involved and only a simpleton thinks that it is all about Petro's election. I know this will come as a shock. But currency trading doesn't mean someone is selling assets and converting them into dollars. Sure there may be some of that. But what drives this rate is traders are buying dollars and selling pesos. I would bet a fair amount of those traders haven't even been to Colombia. Like I've said before. There are a lot of factors involved.Before I get into the explanation of why you are wrong, I predict you will do the same as before, not admit you are wrong and slither away to come back another day with another shot.

You are right in that is the way currencies are set with USD-Euro and USD-Yen. The exchange rate is set mostly by traders, but when I went to Brazil, I looked to buy puts and they were so expensive and thinly traded they were not worth even buying. I assumed the COP was the same and verified the COP-USD market was not heavily traded. It was just set up in 2021, and I cannot find anything on futures prices or even one contract trading, but there was more to it than that.

Much of technical analysis is looking at charts and their patterns. I am not a big TA guy but there is going to be a different pattern when something like the USD-COP ratio goes higher and it has little to no futures contracts as compared to currencies where there are huge hedges. The pattern without hedges is like what we are seeing with the COP, a line straight to the sky. When there are futures involved, the spike up will be jagged as those who are short a currency have to buy the currency when they get out of their position.

So the real question is why did you make this up crap about traders? Is it you did not know? Maybe, but I think part of is that you are such a Democratic dumb shit douche that you did not want to believe your guy was such a fucking disaster before he stepped foot into office. So this is not USA interest rates are all the other bullshit, it is almost all people who hold real Colombian assets converting them into USD. THAT is what causes the COP to move lower.

Oh, and one last thing, I was wrong about when Q2 earnings come out. It is not July 21. Did you sell your positions and move into the things I told you to? Nah. You are too stupid to do that. All you are going to do is get stressed out from what I post and try to burn me on some stupid petty bullshit like this. Calling my woman a WG is not going to help your portfolio douche.

Ok, you can slither away again. Better luck next time.

It may continue, it may reset.Yeah, it could. Things is the COP is not traded much on Forex, and the party that can change the falling COP is the Colombian central bank.

If you look at Colombia and Peru, you can see the two management styles used with currencies. The Peruvian Central Bank keeps a tight control on the currency market and the Colombian Central bank keeps its hands off and lets the COP move freely. Which style is best is an endless argument between economists.

However, I do not think there is much debate that a central bank should step in when there are huge moves down in a currency like we have seen with the COP if they can. This exchange rate creates an even more horrific inflation rate for Colombia.

Point is this is a fire. The Central Bank has the hose and they are letting the fire burn. Why?

The relatively few people who are either celebrating, or lamenting the Colombian election can no more move the market than a guy with a bucket can empty a lake. No direct offense to anyone in particular, but it is one of the easiest things in the world to assign reasons for movement of a market like this after the fact. Show me someone who can predict it accurately and consistently in the future, well, then you have yourself a multi-billionaire. There are too many moving parts for any one to know what is truly happening. Of as the saying goes, shit happens, jeje.

Any single reasonably intelligent person can make his analysis fit the situation with superficial plausibility, after the fact. There are as many different versions of that as there are analysts. Hate to break it to ya' gently but this is just another form of mental masturbation.

You tried to show me that you were my equal by putting up a bunch of the escorts you had been banging and then covered their faces so other guys would not recognize them. LOL. My woman is major league and you had worn out AA types at best.So you say. But you never posted any pictures of her, have you? Why is that? OH maybe she isn't the 10 you claim and you're afraid to let people see her picture because everyone will laugh at your standard of beauty. But I believe there is a different reason you don't post a picture of her. You're terrified that someone on here will say, "I know her, I spent two nights with her in Cartagena two years ago. She was good in bed but too many stretch marks" or something of that ilk.


Sentiment is emotions, fear and greed typically. My gal was afraid of Gustavo, and you are not. She was right, and you are wrong.I guess the question was a little too advanced for you. So let me restate it in really simple terms. Let's use fear and greed as synonyms for 'sentiment'.

Which sentiment (fear) is moving the Dollar / Peso market? Is it fear of Colombian inflation? Is it fear of an economic slowdown because the Colombian Central Bank has raised rates? Is it fear of what Petro might do despite constitutional protections? Is it fear the Peso will fall further so moving into US Dollar denominated government securities is safer?

Are you getting the concept? Currency markets are moved by a whole host of factors, very rarely only 1. You want it to be all about Petro's presidency because you wanted to argue. You can't change the way the world works because you want to foment a squabble.


Uh, let's see. You are down 10% in your portfolio on the year, and I am up 40%. I did an analysis of S&P earnings and said they were coming down a month ago. Every day now, analysts are lowering projected earnings and downgrading stocks.You're claiming you are up 40% in your portfolio? So you put everything you had into a inverse ETF betting on a down market? You know that if you are wrong, or if something dramatic happens you are in a security (a speculative vessel) that could cost you most of your principal in just a few days? You're either lying (most likely) or you have so little money in your market account that losing it won't matter. Your play is kind of analogous to playing no-limit poker. You can go all-in on a hunch and you will probably gather in a few pots until the time you try it and run into the nuts. Then you're watching sports reruns on ESPN the rest of the day.

Fortunately I don't need to take those kinds of obtuse risks. I've invested my whole adult life and I have a very nice retirement. If social security disappears, I'm still extremely comfortable here or in any other country I might choose to live.


And then there is this.
Looks like it's 4,388 for tomorrow.
And COP closed at 4624 today. Maybe you should ask your college for a refund.I guess you don't understand the difference between the current currency exchange transactions (XE mid-market rate) and the rate that is assigned by Visa a day later which is what you can get using your debit card in an ATM (cajero). The 4,624 rate which was the closing currency exchange transaction on Tuesday will be available at ATMs on Thursday.

So tell me where you went to College? Clearly you didn't take finance / banking or statistics courses. You also seem especially lacking in analytical skills. What was your field of study? Or did you even go to college?


Before I get into the explanation of why you are wrong, I predict you will do the same as before, not admit you are wrong and slither away to come back another day with another shot.

You are right in that is the way currencies are set with USD-Euro and USD-Yen.

The pattern without hedges is like what we are seeing with the COP, a line straight to the sky. When there are futures involved, the spike up will be jagged as those who are short a currency have to buy the currency when they get out of their position..So your master point is that the Dollar / Col Peso market isn't sufficiently large that there isn't an active market in futures? I'm impressed. I think my puppy could have told me that.

The real question is why are you trying to diffuse the argument? You claimed that the Colombian Peso was going through an unparalleled devaluation because of Petro's election win. I confronted you the YTD statistics on several South American and other countries currencies as well. The big reveal was that a large number of currencies have suffered similar declines relative to the Dollar YTD. As usual when another of your bombastic blunders gets exposed as the absurdity that it is. You try to pivot to a different argument.

Obviously JjBirdbrain has no self control if he does something he doesn't want to do.That's your expert analysis? Still at it aren't you? Still trying to best me in a battle of wits and you've been shooting blanks for years.

Every day, everyone does things they don't want to do. You probably don't want to put on that adult diaper every day, but you do it anyway because you know what happens when you forget.

As always, you ignore the content and merely pounce on something your feeble, failing mind sees as a weak point and embarrass yourself (although not as badly as on "no diaper day."

If you think about it, although that requires a skill you've long neglected, doing something you don't want to do often illustrates self control, not the lack thereof. Most people don't want to work, they would rather do other things. According to your understanding anyone who chooses to get drunk instead of going to work is exercising self control.

Shall I go on? If so, put on a fresh diaper, because you're certain to shit yourself again.

I have put my money where my mouth is and bought inverse ETFs which have done well lately: SPXU, SDOW, and my favorite SQQQ. As the market falls, these funds go up in value.
The exact percent return on these funds as of today is 39.87%, and you admitted you are down by 10%. In these very short ten weeks, you are down 50% to me. It would take you five years just with average returns to catch up with me.

That is why I considered putting up a photo of someone else and calling her my gal just to see you douches call her average and unattractive.You should be paying me for lessons in civility and how to reason.

Lesson #1: You don't win points in an argument by calling the other person (or side) childish names. All it does is suggests that you are losing the argument and are frustrated. Intelligent adults learn to make their points and support them. Pulling your "facts" out of thin air or with "non substantial support" and then calling the other side names if they don't agree is so high-school.


And V, anyone who looks at your history can see probably half your posts are negative comments towards me. You are not capable of being objective with anything with me, and you are a liar. You started this bonfire. Remember? I told someone that the drop in the peso relative to the dollar is a culmination of many things NOT just a result of the recent election.

Naturally you wanted to start a fight about it but you've been unable to acquit yourself creditably (because you were wrong) and you've tried to pivot to everything else under the sun.

Understandable. But remember. You started this.


You want a lie? Here you go.


You're claiming you are up 40% in your portfolio? A lie?

Lesson #2: A question by definition can't be a lie. It may be deceptive, it may be inappropriate it may be a lot of things. But it can't be a lie.


http://www.internationalsexguide.nl/forum/newreply.php?do=newreply&p=2719562..

The exact percent return on these funds as of today is 39.87%, and you admitted you are down by 10%. In these very short ten weeks, you are down 50% to me. It would take you five years just with average returns to catch up with me.

And besides accusing me of lying, you say this.

You are down 50%, do not understand why, but the kicker is I can lose everything, and you cannot. Why is that V? Why can't you lose everything? Since I trust absolutely nothing you say. I ran the numbers: SQQQ is up 25.8% from 4-28 to today, SPXU is up 30.2% from 4-28 to today and SDOW is up 26.6% from 4-28 to today.

I'm sure your new story is that you bought them at exactly the lowest point a few weeks before and that is how you got to 40%.

Why would I have doubts??

1. If you are such a partisan (and we all know you are) then you would have bought them at the beginning of Biden's presidency. On inauguration day. But NO. You waited a year and 3 months to exactly the time when the market started falling. Not a chance you're Monday morning quarterbacking is there? Hmmm??

2. I don't know the size of your portfolio but for your entire portfolio to be up 40% you would have had to put everything into those inverse ETFs. Those ETFs use options to create enormous leverage. Leverage cuts both ways. You can make big gains and you can lose big also. No one in their right mind would put everything they own into something that by definition is super risky. Unless your "portfolio" is so small that big percentage losses wouldn't mean anything to you.

3. Posting something whereby you claim you made the purchases after the fact isn't exactly compelling evidence. Send me your brokerage statements for the last 3 months with your name and address and account number redacted and then I might actually believe you. But I have a feeling you can't (not won't but can't).

This was Lesson #3 BTW. Saying something in a forum on the internet doesn't make it true. Show me or blow me.


Didn't you see what happened in Sri Lanka?

There is a really simple way the USA gets to be Sri Lanka. Some dumbshit Dem douches like you and your crew looks at our power, water, and food supply being down 50% and says, "I went to college. My analysis is great. I know what I am doing. The numbers being down were just bad luck. It will turn around. ". Remember the theme of the discussion?? Petro's win in the election caused the peso to devalue against the dollar. Other causes weren't a factor. Wasn't that your argument?

Now Sri Lanka has relevance? BTW It was called Ceylon when I was a teenager collecting stamps. I didn't care about Ceylon then either.

That was Lesson #4: Don't introduce Sri Lanka into the middle of any argument. Guaranteed no one thinks that makes a compelling point.

NO Elvis, I don't think you understand anything about investing. First, even if your claim is true, that doesn't make you a good (much less great) investor. You took a speculative position (that is if you did it at all, which is still only supported by your word) and had some short-term gains. How long are you going to ride those gains? For a full year? Because if you close the position in less than a year, you will have short term capital gains which are treated as ordinary income which will take a big bite out of your "so called gains".

Second of all, investing doesn't mean you don't ever have losses. It means over time your portfolio grows consistently.

Third, you want to compare a 2 1/2 month result. Do you think you're a better investor than Warren Buffett? I bet your claimed 40% gain is a lot better than he did over the last 2 1/2 months.

But do you want to compare your record with his over the last 20 years? I will give you a break. I bet my 20 year record is a lot better than yours. But mine sure isn't as good as Buffett's.

That was Lesson #5. 2 1/2 month results are meaningless for comparative purposes. Investment performance is measured over years sometimes decades but not weeks.

Now, as to the pictures you posted. Are those your girl friend? Or someone you saw? I don't find her attractive at all. I think she's fu**ing stunning. Send her my way jajajajaja.

You should be paying me for lessons in civility and how to reason.

Lesson #1: You don't win points in an argument by calling the other person (or side) childish names. All it does is suggests that you are losing the argument and are frustrated. Intelligent adults learn to make their points and support them. Pulling your "facts" out of thin air or with "non substantial support" and then calling the other side names if they don't agree is so high-school.Oh really?


Lesson #4: Don't introduce Sri Lanka into the middle of any argument. Guaranteed no one thinks that makes a compelling point."No one thinks" Can you read everyone's mind? This is why I call you names. Who do you think you are to speak for everyone? You are not making a good point but are just imagining everyone agrees with you.


No one in their right mind would put everything they own into something that by definition is super risky.Once again, you are speaking for everyone. And show me how going short when the fed is raising rates and the yield curve is inverted is risky.


Since I trust absolutely nothing you say. I ran the numbers: SQQQ is up 25.8% from 4-28 to today, SPXU is up 30.2% from 4-28 to today and SDOW is up 26.6% from 4-28 to today.

I'm sure your new story is that you bought them at exactly the lowest point a few weeks before and that is how you got to 40%.Again, this warrants name calling. You insult someone's honesty, make a false accusation, and then when they prove your accusation is wrong, you make up another false one. That is a douche move.


2 1/2 month results are meaningless for comparative purposes. Investment performance is measured over years sometimes decades but not weeks.Again, you are imagining you have this group who agrees with you. Who says they are meaningless? I could close my position and hold it for 5 years and STILL be ahead of you. What would that prove?


But do you want to compare your record with his over the last 20 years? I bet my 20 year record is a lot better than yours. But mine sure isn't as good as Buffett's.https://www.barrons.com/articles/warren-buffett-berkshire-hathaway-performance-51651885365

Over the past 20 years, Berkshire is just a percentage point ahead of the S&P 500, with a 10.3% annualized return against 9. 2% for the index.

You just admitted that someone is better off buying an index fund than listening to you. LOL. Congratulations, you just stabbed yourself in the dick.

On top of that, you do another Democratic douche move by blowing an expert without any regards to the expert's performance. How many times have you douches done that? "Fauci was not wrong about masks. He was lying for our benefit. " Yeesh.

And betting that my returns are worse than Buffett's and yours? Why? Because you want them to be?

Of course, my returns are better than Buffett. It is not that hard. I know bond funds now yielding more than 10%. Hell, I could sell now, hold cash, and probably beat him for 5 years too.


Remember the theme of the discussion?? Petro's win in the election caused the peso to devalue against the dollar. Other causes weren't a factor.No, that is your theme of discussion. Mine is that currencies typically revert to a mean so if the currency is going down every day, that means there is emotional and likely irrational selling. I said my GF told me that people were afraid of Gustavo and guessed that is what is causing the panic selling. You wanted to give a 10 page dissertation on why currencies move when this was irrational selling.


Now, as to the pictures you posted. I think she's fu**ing stunning. Send her my way jajajajaja.You made a concession. Miracles do happen. Look, V, I posted about seeking not to brag but hope others used it. Guys like Dramafree and Don Carlos who have used seeking rave about it. We have talked amongst ourselves and upped our game that much more.

Truth is one of those women was in Medellin when the travel ban was on and you could have had her before me. I guarantee you that DF and DC would have had jumped on her if they had the chance.

As to why I have argued with so much, did it ever occur to you that the reason I told people what I was buying was so others would make money?

Yeah, I did not think so.

If you want to know my investing history, how about asking about it as opposed to being a douche and lying about it? You might actually learn something.

I do not know why you waste your time on these losers. They spread there lies about MDE. Your girl and some of my girls these guys can only dream about them, plus they are too stupid or cheap to use SA.Care to elaborate on that? How is everyone who doesn't use SA too stupid or too stupid?

SA serves a relatively small segment of the P4P community, including many who fail to understand that they're engaging in P4P. For those who use it, they might think it's the greatest, and it is, for them, until they find something else which becomes the new greatest. For everyone else, at best, SA is no big deal.

I prefer finding women through online social sources. I prefer it for many reasons, including many success stories over the last 30 years. For me, SA is a waste of money. For me. It's a waste of money because it adds no value. If I'm looking for a simple, casual encounter, Facebook has more options than I need, without a monthly subscription fee.

However, when I'm looking for something deeper, an actual connection, leading to a relationship, then SA restricts my search pool.

Don't introduce Sri Lanka into the middle of any argument. Guaranteed no one thinks that makes a compelling point.This is the statement to which you are objecting. Other than a few immigrants from India and Sri Lanka and a handful of geography teachers / professors, I doubt 98% of the rest of the US population could find Sri Lanka on a map without using Google or Google Maps. You really think people are impressed with some obtuse argument that the US will degrade into Sri Lanka?

You really need to get a grip on reality.


Once again, you are speaking for everyone. And show me how going short when the fed is raising rates and the yield curve is inverted is risky.If it is such a clever move, why is it that very few hedge funds have duplicated that trade? Why have none of the pension funds copied your trade? Maybe, just maybe they are not kidding themselves about how risky 3 X inverse ETFs are.


Again, this warrants name calling. You insult someone's honesty, make a false accusation, and then when they prove your accusation is wrong, you make up another false one. That is a douche move.Did I call you a liar? No, Elvis. I said I don't believe you. I gave you the easiest way in the world to prove you did what you said.

Over the past 20 years, Berkshire is just a percentage point ahead of the S&P 500, with a 10.3% annualized return against 9. 2% for the index.

You just admitted that someone is better off buying an index fund than listening to you. LOL. Congratulations, you just stabbed yourself in the dick.

On top of that, you do another Democratic douche move by blowing an expert without any regards to the expert's performance. How many times have you douches done that? "Fauci was not wrong about masks. He was lying for our benefit. " Yeesh.Did you even read what you quoted? I don't think you can read. The article says:

"If you're undecided about whether Buffett deserves his reputation as one of history's greatest investors, consider this amazing statistic: Given the gains in Berkshire Hathaway Class A shares since he took over in 1965, the stock could drop 99% and still beat the S&P 500 index.

Barron's calculates that Berkshire Class A shares would have had to return 10.3% annually since 1965 for a price of $4,9681% of the stock's recent close at $496,800. That return compares with a 10.2% annualized return for the S&P 500 over the same period. ".

In short, Buffett has beat the S&P500 index by 100 times over his 56 years. That's right. Think about it. if Berkshire lost 99% of it's value today, it still would be equal with the S&P 500 over the last 56 years..


And betting that my returns are worse than Buffett's and yours? Why? Because you want them to be?

Of course, my returns are better than Buffett. It is not that hard. I know bond funds now yielding more than 10%. Hell, I could sell now, hold cash, and probably beat him for 5 years too.Here let me see if I can help you see the light. Friday your SQQQ lost 5. 35%, SPXU lost 5. 48% and SDOW lost 6. 28% meanwhile my portfolio gained 1. 75%.

That means I beat you by 7. 35%. I tried to warn you how you should cash out and replicate my portfolio.

Do you see how silly that argument is? Well it is exactly the same argument you have been making. Look at me! I'm up 40% in 10 weeks (maybe, but you still haven't shown your statements), I'm a better investor than Warren Buffett.

But why is it that all the major publications show fund performance at 1 yr 5 yr and 10 yr?


No, that is your theme of discussion. Mine is that currencies typically revert to a mean so if the currency is going down every day, that means there is emotional and likely irrational selling. I said my GF told me that people were afraid of Gustavo and guessed that is what is causing the panic selling. You wanted to give a 10 page dissertation on why currencies move when this was irrational selling.NO Elvis, my 10 page dissertation was this: There are too many factors involved in the currency markets to know what is causing certain movements. Petro's election was a factor not the factor.


You made a concession. Miracles do happen.

Prove me wrong.

Did you even read what you quoted? I don't think you can read.Oh, I can read just fine douche. In fact, I read this.


But do you want to compare your record with his over the last 20 years? I will give you a break. I bet my 20 year record is a lot better than yours. But mine sure isn't as good as Buffett's.Last 20 years right?


Barron's calculates that Berkshire Class A shares would have had to return 10.3% annually since 1965.Why are you talking 1965 douche?

And how does this help you? Huh? You are so brain dead that you compared yourself to Buffett and did not know when his golden age was. That is what a Democratic douche does. You align yourself with the expert but do not know even know what the fuck the expert is saying. You need to get a grip on reality.

So you are an average investor. Buffett has been slightly above average, and I have been better than that. And? You attach great significance to this. You are trying to make this about past performance whereas I could give a fuck. Is there any guarantee that if I have been right all the time in the past I could not be wrong now?


If it is such a clever move, why is it that very few hedge funds have duplicated that trade? Why have none of the pension funds copied your trade?And here you go aligning yourself with Buffett while you follow the crowd. You have no clue why he made money.

I care about the case for going short or long not the positions. You want to follow the crowd which is as anti-Buffett as it gets.

Contrarian investing is an investment style in which investors purposefully go against prevailing market trends by selling when others are buying and buying when most investors are selling. Berkshire Hathaway Chair and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Warren Buffett is a famous contrarian investor.

V, you do not have a cell in your body that is contrarian. So why are you comparing yourself to Buffett?

Buffett is the greatest investor of all time, but you have no fucking clue why he has been successful. None. If you had any brains at all, you would have compared yourself to Buffett's first 20 years.

And then you are talking about university classes when the most important thing about investing is emotional stability not knowledge.

Here is Peter Lynch:

What do you need to become a great investor?

Lynch: In the stock market, the most important organ is the stomach. It's not the brain. Most people do really well because they just hang in there.

And Reminisces:

It never was my thinking that made the big money for me. It was always my sitting. Got that? My sitting tight! . Men who can both be right and sit tight are uncommon. I found it one of the hardest things to learn.

The most important thing you can do is an investor is to know when to stay the course and when to admit you are wrong and when to bail. It is not academic courses dummy. And you do that by always questioning whether you are right or wrong. It is easily said and very hard to do.

The first two years investing I got crushed V, but it was the best learning experience ever. I had to admit where I went wrong and why.

But not you. You are never wrong even when you are caught. You stabbed yourself in the dick and tried to lie your way out of it. Worse, you were lying about something irrelevant.

Let me be clear about that. IMO your ass kicking has just begun. We are only in the second or third inning. And I do not care about being right. I care about making money. If someone makes a case and I am wrong and truly was lucky, I will close out with a gain and live to fight another day.

Can you tell me why the market is higher now than in Feb 2020 before the pandemic? We have the war in Ukraine, gas at $5 a gallon, food shortages, power issues, and China in an even broader Covid lockdown. Why did the market go up since Feb 2020? And is that reason gone now? What does multiple contraction mean? What does QT mean? What is an inverted yield curve, and why is it important?

And one last thing, I will tell you when I move out of my positions. If the market goes up like you think and I am down, you can gloat all you want but you know what you have to do first douche? You have to grow up and be a man and admit you are getting your ass kicked. If you cannot do that, you coward, I will put you on ignore, and you can go to hell.

Make an objective case and acknowledge you are down to me douche, way down. Quit with the excuses and step up to the plate or shut the fuck up. The market decides the winner not the crowd douche.

So let's hear it. Do something you have not done at all so far. Impress me with your knowledge. And try to be original.

Oh, I can read just fine douche.Nope. You can't read at all. Well maybe at a 3rd grade level.


Why are you talking 1965 douche?I didn't talk about 1965 at all. I quoted from the article YOU used to make a point. Only you forgot to read the article. Which once again raises the question of whether you can analyze anything and whether you can read with comprehension. Seriously, if you want to quote a source, you would do well to read it first and then ask your hooker girlfriend to explain it to you.


That is what a Democratic douche does. You align yourself with the expert but do not know even know what the fuck the expert is saying. You need to get a grip on reality.Yes, Elvis, I feel for you. Who would expect someone to actually look at the source you quoted and actually read it. Only a Democratic douche would read the source you quoted. Surely no one in your circle of friends would go to that extreme. Hahahaha. Or is it that no one in your circle of friends can read either?? Hmmm I always heard that you guys loathe academics.


Contrarian investing is an investment style in which investors purposefully go against prevailing market trends by selling when others are buying and buying when most investors are selling. Berkshire Hathaway Chair and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Warren Buffett is a famous contrarian investor.You keep using the word investing and investor but you don't know what that word means. What you describe is speculation and speculator. Contrarian investing is a thing. In short, contrarians try to buy stocks that are out of favor but have strong intact fundamentals. The expectation is that the market sentiment will turn and investors will start to recognize the strong fundamentals and the price will then rise. Or of course on the other side, contrarians may choose to short a stock that has risen due to enormous sentiment and inertia but the fundamentals are inadequate to support the price and frequently are deteriorating. The expectation is that the price will sink back to supportable levels.


And then you are talking about university classes when the most important thing about investing is emotional stability not knowledge.I wouldn't say you need to have taken university classes to know how to invest but it sure doesn't hurt. You would learn a few things like: How to read financial statements, how to calculate ratios and other fundamental markers, how to calculate a dividend discount model and on and on. If you seriously think you can successfully invest using your hunches without doing the analytical work you are seriously mistaken.


The first two years investing I got crushed V, but it was the best learning experience ever. I had to admit where I went wrong and why.Oh, so you've been investing for two years? Got it.


You stabbed yourself in the dick and tried to lie your way out of it. Worse, you were lying about something irrelevant.No, Elvis. I'm not so insecure that I have to make up trades to try and impress people. I don't have to lie either, I actually do my homework so that I don't have to try to pivot away from something I misquoted and call the other person a liar.


Let me be clear about that. IMO your ass kicking has just begun. We are only in the second or third inning. And I do not care about being right. I care about making money. If someone makes a case and I am wrong and truly was lucky, I will close out with a gain and live to fight another day.I'm glad you used a baseball analogy. I wanted to use one too but didn't know if you were knowledgeable. So, if you make a speculative trade and it works well for a short period of time, that isn't an indicator of anything. For example, the Astros score 4 runs in the 3rd inning and the Red Sox answer with a -0-. That doesn't make the Astros better or the winner or anything. The game is scored at the end of 9 innings not on just the results from the 3rd inning.

OH and since you've had 3 or 4 chances to prove beyond all doubt that you actually made the speculative trade of which you are so proud and you have constantly gone crickets on proving it, I think it's time to say that now, I think you are a liar. I gave you the benefit of the doubt, I questioned it, I doubted it, I didn't believe you. Now since you can't back it up, I have to assume to lied about it. Why? I think you're insecure and need peoples' approval.

But of course, none of this is where we started. You wanted to argue about the causes of the peso's rapid decline against the dollar. You did it with superficial analysis (if you could call it that) and your escort girlfriend's opinion based on all the rich Colombians she runs around with. Now that your argument has fallen flat, you have tried as hard as you can to make it about your brilliant made up investment results and how you are the master of finding beautiful women. We know you didn't chase them, with all your flab you couldn't catch an energetic 3 year old.

The twerp once again got owned then dragged the discussion off topic while once again hurling over and over the antiquated slur, "douche. " It's all very predictable. And of course in the process called you a "Democrat" like that has anything to do with the price of rice in China. ROFL But at the end of the day his currency analysis was wrong, while he doesn't have a hot girlfriend in Colombia or anywhere else. He's an admitted fat piece of shit with internet access and a world of time on his hands. That's all we know as no one has ever seen him in Colombia.

Did I call you a liar? No, Elvis. I said I don't believe you. I gave you the easiest way in the world to prove you did what you said. PM me for my email address and send me a copy of your investment account statements for April, May and June. Redact your name, address and account number. Safe and easy and unlike you I would happily acknowledge that you did what you said you did. But you didn't do that did you. I say you CAN'T do it (not won't but can't) because you made it up. Prove me wrong.I've seen this offer while I've seen it consistently ignored. The proof would be easy to provide. JJBee62 has made similar offers to the twit in the past and they were also ignored, while he welched on a $1000 bet after his prediction that less than 80 K would die of Covid in the states failed. Bottom line is that when he gets embarrassed he starts pulling anecdotes out of his ass, and when proof is requested only rants and yells and changes the subject. LOL.

And another way of the Democratic douches of Medelllin: blabber on about how smart you, be proven wrong, insult again and again, and never own that you were wrong. You are down 50% and all you can do is mouth off about how smart you are and how dumb I am. THAT is narcissism.


No, Elvis. I'm not so insecure that I have to make up trades to try and impress people.I told you douche. I told of my trade to make guys money and that is the same thing I did with seeking. It was to show guys how to make money and get hot women. You are so insecure you cannot stand the thought of anyone doing better than you douche. If I do well, then I am insecure and trying to impress. If I do poorly, you say I do not know what I am doing. That is another way of the patronizing narcissistic dumb shit Democratic douche.

I gave you a chance to explain yourself, to explain your position, and it was nothing but more dick measuring. LOL. You do not know what the fuck you are doing with making money or with women. I have a better looking woman than you, having better sex than you, and making more money than you. You are the insecure one douche. How can a dumb Republican kick my ass so badly? He he.

And congratulations on warning people away from my expertise of getting hot women, staying away from Covid, and making money. Should people follow you into the gutter financially? That is where you get your women so you must be comfortable.

Oh and by all means let's get your fellow Democratic douches to vote you the winner even if your sorry ass is down 50%. Hey, Paulie, where are you? Are you going to say I have never been to Colombia again? He he. Poor V is going to need a friend after getting his ass handed to him. Maybe you can get back in good with the Medellin "expert" crowd.

I also get a kick out of how he makes all sorts of silly claims and posts a link to a source. The only problem is that the source all too often doesn't support his claim at all and even contradicts it many times. I still think he has problems reading.

Why would Pauline, XMan and there others followers stop lying and leave there fantasy world.My point was to see if this was going to be a honest discussion or a dick measuring contest, and it was the latter. Thing is Viliany cut his dick in two when he showed his returns were at best average. He tried to worm his way out of it with insults, but the damage was done. By HIS criteria, he lost the argument.

I could care less about his record, and I do not want people to care about mine, but I will say this just to instill fear in V. After two years of hard knocks, I crushed it. The best pick I made went up 2500%. I went to this huge investing contest where people paid big $ to listen to these gurus. When I asked about a 2500% return, I found only one guy there who had ever done it, so I was completely underwhelmed by the "experts". FWIW, the year I made all that money was the worst of my life, but that is a discussion for another day.

So how do you know if someone is good? They make an observation, bet on it, and you see if it comes true. Sometimes the observation comes true in weeks and other times it is years. That you have to wait years is nonsense. Your track record has little to do with if you are right this time. A good investor is always wanting to see if he is wrong. A novice like V always thinks he is right.

After crushing it, people wanted my advice and it was frustrating because they would not do exactly what I told them. I want people to invest because of the why not the who. The people who know the why can adjust whereas others cannot. I always invest when the odds are in my favor but if the odds are 90-10 in my favor, I can still lose, and the odds change every day. You have to recalculate all the time.

What is patently obvious is EihTooms and Viliany brag about their results but neither has any rationale behind what they do. V is in real estate because it is an inflation hedge based on history. If you know how things are going now though, it is a terrible move. A douche like V will look at price action versus real facts. Mortgage applications hit a 22 year low today, but V is so dense, he thinks that does not affect him.

And the reason things are different is Covid. In the end, these dumb shit douches never say they are wrong and of all the things they were wrong about, the worst is you could print trillions of dollars and not expect any issues. We are going to be paying that bill, and it is huge, over the next two years.

You know when Osteoknot accused you / me of being insecure, he was really admitting that he is insecure. His #1 true love, catgirl, and he have this incredible relationship except now he admitted she is banging someone else. Yeesh. At one time, he cut her off money wise. I told him that was wrong. If a woman cuts off sex or a guy cuts off money, that is Bush league. He mouthed off and said he knew what he was doing and a short time later, she dumped him and he cried like a baby. The guy is intelligent but has no common sense. You are not going to get the best out of a woman unless you commit to her and if you cannot commit, then she is not that fucking great. But you and I already know that. That said, it is REALLY hard finding a good woman and a guy should play the field until he finds one.

So V can say what he wants but he is scared shitless right now. He will console himself with the support of his fellow douches but just like with Osteo, these douches tear into us when they are scared. Whether it is women or the market, these douches do not know what they are doing.

BTW, with your crew and skill set, I would look at trying to flip houses in the future. The amount of houses that are going to be abandoned in the near two years may be worse than 2008. You should be able to buy houses out of bankruptcy for pennies on the dollar, fix them up, and just kill it on resale. The amount of money going to home repairs IMO will be down a lot in the near future.

It's a different arena, and one where he often cannot shout his way out of the corners he paints himself into. See'est La Vie.The latest Elvis work-around. Pretend he is responding to someone else. But let's really look at what the Elvis impersonator had to say.


My point was to see if this was going to be a honest discussion or a dick measuring contest, and it was the latter. Thing is Viliany cut his dick in two when he showed his returns were at best average. He tried to worm his way out of it with insults, but the damage was done. By HIS criteria, he lost the argument.

When I asked about a 2500% return, I found only one guy there who had ever done it, so I was completely underwhelmed by the "experts".The honest discussion started when Elvis disagreed with my response to another poster that the peso's drop vis-a-vis the dollar was not solely a result of Petro's victory in the presidential election. I never traded currencies but I've been around those that do and there are a wide variety of factors that play into how currencies value out against the dollar. Sure a presidential election would be one factor but only one of many. Elvis went on a rant about how his hooker girlfriend and all the rich Colombians she ran around with were selling everything and moving somewhere. Of course this was all BS. I guess this argument went badly for the corpulent one.

Next thing you know, it's about his amazing investing prowess. His ability to find supermodels who are giving up their European businessmen and Middle-Eastern princes to be with a sloth of a man with a big mouth and a small mind. OK, I'll waste time with you, I'm retired, bring it on.

He bragged about some brilliant investment he claims he made (after the fact). When confronted that it was a foolish speculation and not true anyway. Did he prove his trade by copying a few pages from his investment account? No, of course not, it was all fantasy anyway, he couldn't prove a thing.

But tonight he has a new trade, it went up 2500%. We all know Elvis is analytically impaired. I doubt that he could correctly calculate that percentage gain. But tell me. Who believes him?

You could get there if you bought Amazon at its low point in 2001 and sold at its high point last year. But there is another explanation. Elvis is insecure. He has said he didn't attend college. I think he wants people to think he is smart but it's difficult. He keeps getting into arguments with people who are. Oh I know. 2500% smarter than he is and when he can't win the argument, he resorts to the time tested 3rd grader's method of calling their adversary a douche, or a Democrat (my God, that one really stings) hahahaha.


So how do you know if someone is good? They make an observation, bet on it, and you see if it comes true. Sometimes the observation comes true in weeks and other times it is years. That you have to wait years is nonsense. Your track record has little to do with if you are right this time. A good investor is always wanting to see if he is wrong. A novice like V always thinks he is right.Let's see. You're a brilliant investor is that it? You can't read a financial statement, hell, you can't read your own posted sources. You can't seem to calculate anything correctly, and instead of studying the market you're on this site posting garbage day-in and day-out. Clearly you have found a new formula for success. Hard work and fundamental analysis have no chance against Elvis and his hunches.


After crushing it, people wanted my advice and it was frustrating because they would not do exactly what I told them. I want people to invest because of the why not the who. The people who know the why can adjust whereas others cannot. I always invest when the odds are in my favor but if the odds are 90-10 in my favor, I can still lose, and the odds change every day. You have to recalculate all the time.People wanted your advice? Oh dear God, you are delusional.


What is patently obvious is EihTooms and Viliany brag about their results but neither has any rationale behind what they do. V is in real estatebecause it is an inflation hedge based on history. If you know how things are going now though, it is a terrible move. A douche like V will look at price action versus real facts. Mortgage applications hit a 22 year low today, but V is so dense, he thinks that does not affect him.Actually, I own -0- real estate. I do own some stocks that are classified as REITs. They are well managed, didn't lose tenants during the CoVid period and continued to pay their dividends throughout that tempestuous time. The ones I own have CPI adjustments annually to keep pace with inflation. These types of investments are well suited to someone who is retired. They don't go up 2500% but they don't go down much if at all even during recessionary times. But thanks for the information on mortgage applications hitting a 22 year low. Maybe I can use that and 6 mil to pay for my cappuccino tomorrow morning.


And the reason things are different is Covid. In the end, these dumb shit douches never say they are wrong and of all the things they were wrong about, the worst is you could print trillions of dollars and not expect any issues. We are going to be paying that bill, and it is huge, over the next two years.You mean like the chubby clown who said that CoVid deaths in the US would never climb over 80,000? Who was that chubby clown? Ahh an Elvis impersonator. It simply couldn't be our Elvis, the world renown expert in everything. (that is satire, Elvis, just in case you weren't picking up on it).


You know when Osteoknot accused you / me of being insecure, he was really admitting that he is insecure.

But you and I already know that. That said, it is REALLY hard finding a good woman and a guy should play the field until he finds one.OH and now you're starting a new ISG forum. Let's call it: Dear Elvis - relationship advice from a man in love with his hooker. That should be a big hit.


BTW, with your crew and skill set, I would look at trying to flip houses in the future. The amount of houses that are going to be abandoned in the near two years may be worse than 2008. You should be able to buy houses out of bankruptcy for pennies on the dollar, fix them up, and just kill it on resale.And I would suggest that with your skill set you look at trying to flip burgers in the future.


The amount of money going to home repairs IMO will be down a lot in the near future.Wait a minute! If there are going to be a lot of houses abandoned in the near two years like in 2008 (I think that is poppycock BTW) and people are going to buy them in bankruptcy in order to flip them. Wouldn't they be spending a lot of money on home repairs to fix them up prior to flipping?

Why would the banks allow the properties to sell for "pennies on the dollar" if they have a sizeable equity stake in the property? Properties with mortgages or deeds of trust don't often go through bankruptcy they go through foreclosure and the bank or lender acquires them. Unless someone bids more than their perceived equity state at the foreclosure sale.

I guess I shouldn't be surprised. You don't know anything about real-estate or how foreclosures are handled.

Instead of joining seeking and hooking up with the best Colombia had to offer, you kept seeing the low life's who scope you. How many times have you winners been drugged or attempted to be drugged? And why the fuck would you keep seeing those women and going back to those places?

Hell, you could have made a killing when I posted what I did back in April about my trade. Did you? Of course not. And why not? Because you are a moron. There is a saying in investing that you do not fight the Fed, and the federal reserve is taking money out of the system which means the market is headed down. It is not that hard.

So you can hate on me all you want, but the truth is you and your crew are fools for not following my lead. You would rather sit around and make stupid ass comments like "Show us proof" than make money and be with hot women.

Hell, you could have made a killing when I posted what I did back in April about my trade. Did you? Of course not. And why not? Because you are a moron. There is a saying in investing that you do not fight the Fed, and the federal reserve is taking money out of the system which means the market is headed down. It is not that hard.

So you can hate on me all you want, but the truth is you and your crew are fools for not following my lead. You would rather sit around and make stupid ass comments like "Show us proof" than make money and be with hot women.
Well today is the last day in July (for the stock market at least). It's time to take stock on the world's most knowledgeable investor (hahahaha). So Elvis who was never able to demonstrate that he actually made the speculative plays that he claims. Raved on and on about how well he did in a few weeks. He was up 40% (which was also BS). He chided people for not being smart enough to follow his lead. Afterall he knows all about economic trends, he knows how the market will react to Fed interest rate increases which are designed to slow the economy and push back inflation. But the Market didn't respect Elvis. The Market said "those are the right steps" and has been on a tear for the last month and a half.

I must say I'm shocked, that's right just shocked that the market ignored the advice of someone with all the graduate degrees and expertise that Elvis has. .Oh Wait!!. That's right, Elvis doesn't have any graduate degrees or advance training. Elvis didn't even make it to college. But of course, he was far more knowledgeable than all the other experts who HAVE been to graduate school and have decades of experience.

Remember the phrase. even a blind squirrel finds an acorn every once in a while. But wait!! Let's take a real look!!

SQQQ.

43.35.

39.83.

(8. 1)%.

SPXU.

15.41.

15.31.

(0. 6)%.

SDOW.

29.67.

30.18.

1. 7%.

To make things clear: SQQQ, SPXU & SDOW are the stock symbols of the inverse ETFs that Elvis claims he invested in.

The second line is the ending fund price on 4/28/2022 which is when Elvis posted that he made this trade.

The third line is the closing fund price today on 7/29/2022.

The fourth line is the percentage gain or loss.

If you take the average performance for the three funds you would be (2. 33)%.

Now you may remember Elvis bragging about being up 40%, that was just fiction. He was never up that much (even if he really did make the trade which by now everyone knows was also a fiction).

He scoffed at my being invested in REITs (Real Estate Investement Trusts) and high-quality dividend stocks and some high quality growth stocks. At the time I was down between 5 and 10%.

BUT July was a good month. I got a whole batch of dividends and those REITs have done nothing but go up. So today, I'm up about 6. 5% over the same time frame. Unlike Elvis, I'll personally meet with anyone and show them my investment accounts and my calculations.

So just remember, when someone tells you how they are such an expert but have no training, no education and only a fictitious bunch of results, which they cannot backup. Just laugh because that person is an Elvis impersonator or maybe even the Elvis here on ISG.

First thing, if you're asking me for investment advice, there's probably a "Will Work For Food" sign in your future. I've had some opportunities to learn, but I've never developed an interest. One of those opportunities has been on my mind since reading something posted here.

Making a living through investing is difficult and risky. It's so difficult that most people who manage it fall into 2 groups. The first group are people who worked another job for 20-40 years, investing a small part of their earnings. Eventually, they acquire enough to live off the proceeds (along with a pension plan and Social Security).

The second group avoids the work requirement through the success of their ancestors. They start out with sufficient capital to live off the proceeds.

What group an investor belongs in has no bearing on their skill or success.

Selling investment advice is more dependable, and it doesn't even need to be good advice. This was quite popular about 15 years ago.

It started with free tickets from my exgf's employer to see a bunch of motivational speakers. The lineup included Steve Forbes, Tony Dungy, Peyton Manning, Zig Ziglar and Colin Powell and during the intermission everyone was given the opportunity to sign up for a free investing seminar.

The ex was convinced that the seminar would be profitable and it was, for the people who put on the seminar. It was profitable enough to rent an NFL stadium and bring in some of the top speakers in the US just to get people to go to the free seminar.

The focus of the seminar was option trading, a way to leverage your investment stake. The appeal of option trading is that you can get an incredible ROI from a modest change in stock price. 500%, 1000%, even 2500% returns are not uncommon. In fact, those type of returns were the selling point at the free seminar. The basic package was free. I think the next level was $500 or $1,000. Beyond that was another level with a much higher price.

Of course, leverage works both ways. You can multiply your investment, or multiply your losses. In the free seminar, they focused on the potential gains and downplayed the risk.

He's still in his trailer typing away about the same thing, but this time in the American Politics forum. To date all requests for proof of the trade, a simple transaction history screenshot, redacted past statement, have been answered only with bluster and threats to put you on ignore. This Pelvis is as real.Hey, Pile on Pauline, your fellow douche was screaming about 20 year returns and needing to see a brokerage statement and now 20 years does not matter, and he does not need to see a brokerage statement. Hell, he is even saying that I lost money when the account I have held firm positions is still up 7%. That is the one I use as a baseline and was the one I recommend that people follow.

Let us go back to my statement here:


And one last thing, I will tell you when I move out of my positions. If the market goes up like you think and I am down, you can gloat all you want but you know what you have to do first douche? You have to grow up and be a man and admit you are getting your ass kicked. If you cannot do that, you coward, I will put you on ignore, and you can go to hell.So Pile on Pauline, did your butt buddy acknowledge my gains? Nope. What does that mean? He is a worthless, piece of shit, candy ass, Democratic douche just like you. If the market goes up, I don't have a brokerage statement. If I am down, the investment is real. This heads I win, tails you lose attitude is who you, Viliany, and EihTooms are and why no one should listen to you fools about anything.

Of course, I could just lie like you douches do all the time and say I sold at the peak, but I did not. In fact, I added to my positions in my trading account. That one is dead even now if you are keeping score.


Contrarian investing is an investment style in which investors purposefully go against prevailing market trends by selling when others are buying and buying when most investors are selling.You might not recognize this but that is actually practicing what I preached. You should try it some time. Instead of lying and saying I sold, I was adding to my positions, going short when others go long.


The most important thing you can do is an investor is to know when to stay the course and when to admit you are wrong and when to bail.So was I wrong? Not at all. All that has changed is perception. The Fed is still tightening. The yield curve is still inverted. QT is bigger than ever. A few companies weathered the inflation and recession storm well, but some big ones missed expectations and got crushed. Hell, you have this incompetent administration trying to argue that we are not in recession when every economic text book says we are.

I do not invest based on technical analysis but a few traders I respect on CNBC said the S&P would hit 4100 before going South. That is why I said you can make fun of my losses as long as you acknowledge my gains, but you two did not do that.

And for that fact alone, Pile on Pauline, it forever defines you and your butt boy Viliany as gutless cowards. We will see who has the last laugh yet.

Well, if you take investment advice from me, you will be doing the same thing thousands of people did over the years. And my advice won't be sexy. It won't involve leverage, and you won't get rich quick. It will be a 'get rich slow' approach. Me: CPA, CMA, CFM, Series 65, RIA, graduate business degree. Elvis, not so much. So my investment advice is to dollar cost average into Vanguard mutual funds. I did that for 40 years and I'm quite wealthy and never worked very hard.

" And if you can't find enough here online there's more than enough on the ground. Just pull up a seat down south at any mongering hole. Speak to the guy on the stool next to you and he'll be glad to tell you all about it. Problem is few if any truly wealthy people are mongering in South America. They have delivery service in the US or are in Spain, France, Monaco, or a whole list of places with hotter and better educated women, much better infrastructure, safety, and superior food and scenery.

I am sure that is how you would like it to be.

Truth is I posted about seeking and you and all the other Democratic douches ignored and were content with your disgusting centro pigs. Instead of joining seeking and hooking up with the best Colombia had to offer, you kept seeing the low life's who scope you. How many times have you winners been drugged or attempted to be drugged? And why the fuck would you keep seeing those women and going back to those places?

Hell, you could have made a killing when I posted what I did back in April about my trade. Did you? Of course not. And why not? Because you are a moron.

That is enough for now. My make believe GF just made me breakfast after fucking the shit out of me this morning.There's some cute little piggies in el centro!!

if you're going to brag about your superiority in this arena (first ask yourself WHY).Okay, why is someone so stupid as to think I am bragging when I said those women were open to everyone? Yeah, I came up with an answer. The guy is a loser who cannot handle anyone doing better than he is. When he does see or hear someone doing better than him, his ego is so puny that he thinks it has to be due to more money. Are you "quite wealthy" like Huacho?


and secondly remember that you're paying a working girl on an app more than what you could be paying a cutie from the mall, fonda, hueco, disco etc.This is not quite as humorous as Huacho's comment. It is actually is more pathetic than funny and I want to laugh tomorrow. Can you live stream your picking up a cutie from the mall, fonda, hueco, disco etc?

No man, Colombian girls aren't so beautiful. In terms of quality Sao Paulo is much better than Medellin. And, in general, I found Brazilian girls more participative. Even thought, there are many missiles in Brazil as well. In Brazil I got laid with a girl I met on Tinder, for free, in Medellin I always had to pay. Medellin is good because you can get girls on Facebook, and it's also good for El Centro, since you can find some pearls there. I can't speak for Mexico because I have never been there. But I would never pick up Colombia if it wasn't so cheap, not if I have to choose in relation to the beauty.This is of course just my opinion supported by my own and others experiences, but Brazilian girls come across as significantly more genuine, educated and curious about the world. In short, to me Colombia feels more like a third world country while Brazil doesn't.

He calls people morons which is ironic because his lone supporter Dramaqueen is the quintessential example of one. Elvira also somehow finds the time to write lengthy post after lengthy post about being a legend in his own mind to the point that my mind wanders to the band Styx and one of their biggest hits: "Too much time on my hands", which most aptly captures Elvira's nonstop rambling. Below is a segment of the song lyrics that best captures it:

The odds are grossly tilted toward crimes against gringos happening in the Poblado-Laureles-Sabaneta triangle. Outside that zone, it's of course much less likely because there are so much fewer gringos in the line of fire by comparison.I couldn't disagree more with this reasoning. It's true that opportunists go to areas like El Poblado looking for targets, but throwing yourself into the mix in high crime areas like Manrique and most areas of Bello with little police presence, loads of poverty and plenty of potential perps about for the most part carries higher risk, especially if you are out late partying and like most are unable to blend in. That said there's little stats for this as most foreign victims don't report the crimes. Plus there's little sampling in one respect as few are dumb enough to go up the hill to Manrique to party. Even remotely honest hookers would advise against it.

So moral of the story? Be wary of personal testimonies in monger forums. Many are unreliable, plus some are just in ISG posting for fun, making stuff up, and have never been to Colombia. Plus if true one person's limited experience is insufficient to draw conclusions as they could run out of luck tomorrow.

I absolutely hate the crabs in a barrel attitude when it comes to women that men have. Like there is some dire scarcity of women out there. In relation to this thread you ask simple questions or guidance and get the crab and barrel effect of no guidance and some dick telling you "just stay home brah. ". At face value very thinly veiled it looks as an attempt to preserve "my" safety but really it is an elitest post saying "I don't want to give any guidance because screw new adventures coming to my stomping grounds". Even if more adventurous coordinated and stuck together the experience would be safer.

' So why don't you take a hike?Perfect example of crabs in a barrel, men really need to treat each other better with the advent of mental health issues especially and a culture particularly in the US that tells women to see us as walking wallets this cdabs in a barrel stuff needs to stop.

Also, I doubt it would take hours to explain. Obviously, some issues are complex but I found the answer to most of my questions anyway, I did comb the forums, but a general question would be what are some of thenon obvious ways you can be poisoned.

Even if more adventurous coordinated and stuck together the experience would be safer.You seem to really like the "crabs in a barrel" metaphor. I think for the most part you simply do not understand why people aren't writing out a complete "do's and don'ts" notebook for you.

First of all, you're new and well, frankly haven't contributed anything. The majority of your questions center around safety in Colombia and specifically in Medellin. All these safety concerns (especially scopolamine) have been discussed, analysed, parsed, argued about ad nauseam. Yet you seem to feel that someone with experience here in Colombia, should take a swath of their time to rehash what has been written about dozens of times so that someone new won't have to expend any effort finding that information in this forum. Do you see why you're getting caustic responses? (Hint: It has not a f*ing thing in the world to do with crabs or barrels).

BUT I'm retired, living here in Medellin and have a little free time.

SO: Lazy person's guide to safety in Medellin .

1. Don't walk around with your cell phone in your hand. Keep it in whatever is your secure place. (pocket, backpack, whatever). Yes locals are walking around with them out all the time but you are a foreigner and you probably stick out like a sore thumb and your phone is probably a lot better than those of the locals. So keep your phone where no one can see it. If you got a message buzz or need to clarify your directions. Go into a coffee shop or restuarant and order a coffee while you check your messages or your location or whatever.

2. If you are with a girl never never leave your drink unattended for one second. If you go to the bathroom, either take your drink with you or get a fresh drink when you come out.

3. Do NOT carry a large sum of money in your wallet. First of all it is stupid, if you need a bunch of cash buy yourself one of those waist belts. That way you can have a wallet with 50 mil in it and your needed stash hidden in your waist-belt. Second reason is if you have a big stash of cash and worse comes to worse and you get held up you won't be tempted to compound your stupidity and fight to keep your wallet. You'll give it away without the least concern.

4. At night, stay on well lit and well trafficed streets. Don't walk down some dark narrow street because it is a short cut. Better yet, cabs are f*ing cheap, take a cab at night unless you are in a group of people.

5. If you are really worried about the girls you see doing something. Maybe you should be bringing a higher class of girls to your room / apartment. Consider staying at hotels that religiously check the girl's government issued identification (cedula) and keep a copy of the information. This protects you against some underage girl setting you up for a bribery sting or something of that ilk.

6. Read the forum.

7. Go back further in your reading of the forum.

8. Use the search function to find a specific topic to research in the forum.

9. Read the reports of distinction.

10. Stop being a crabby complainer and go back to #6.

How are you able to bring in 40 phones at a pop? I've brought them, laptops, rare scotch in and re-sold to friends, but I always understood the limit was 3 or 4 phones before they tax you on the remainder. My luggage is also scanned 90% of the time. Am I missing something?If I told you how I did it, then you would know what I know. There is a way to do it and many of the posts so far are really off the mark, but then again, you can always count on my post to be so unbelievable that surely my recollection of events must be false.

As for overpaying, money is not same for everyone. If Bill Gates came to town and paid a girl $2000 US for two hours, you would say that he overpaid and is a sucker but Bill Gates wouldn't see it that way. He had a great time and the girl went all out for him. For Bill Gates, $2000 is nothing and he would probably feel guilty just giving her $50 for the great time she gave him because he has so much money.So if Bill Gates went into McDonald's and paid $600 for a Happy Meal you would just think he was really hungry and the cheeseburger filled him up and the fries were hot? In other words he got the same Happy Meal that everybody else gets. Never mind the price of a Happy Meal is on the menu for $6? What you are saying is that because you have more money you should pay way more than things actually cost like the US government does by buying $400 hammers and $600 toilet seats? The government probably felt guilty paying the normal price because it has so much money.

How do you know, that other than speaking for yourself, from what another person profits? Does anyone here consider giving in its truest sense, when you really should not be concerned with the outcome? What if giving makes the giver intrinsically happy? Then, haven't they "profited"? Does there have to be a direct material benefit and result on your "investment"? Who says there has to be an ROI (Return on Investment) to justify the giving? An so on, and so on. . . Aren't these all personal decisions?I actually agree.

I bring special gifts for special girls, including iPhones.

IMO opinion there is no love not only in the United States with modern culture actively encouraging girls to be increasingly more transactional in music from the age of 13, but you don't think attractive girls in more or less than optimally stable countries aren't scouted and told about their value by the age of 15.

In my community, we call this the "captain save a hoe" mindset and for a man it is the most dangerous thing in the world and have gotten many a men in trouble and I guess will continue to do so.

Unless you have a annual income of 250 grand or more with no kids and obligations of significance like a mortgage. This is fucking ridiculous.

Do you see why you're getting caustic responses? (Hint: It has not a f*ing thing in the world to do with crabs or barrels).

BUT I'm retired, living here in Medellin and have a little free time.

SO: Lazy person's guide to safety in Medellin .
Great post Villainy. Great post in more ways than just the information provided. Well done. I'm also retired and while I don't live in Colombia I do spend much of my time in Medellin. Since it's a serious topic let me just submit a couple things should be added to the "Lazy person's guide to safety in Medellin".

First don't go out and get as drunk as you would on a vacation in Las Vegas. Keep your wits about you. As someone from a rich country (most any country relative to Colombia) you are a target. Be aware of this fact always and don't let your guard down.

Second don't allow a chica to bring her amiga, prima or hemana (friend, cousin or sister) along to your apartment or hotel room. While at first it may sound like a sexual fantasy in reality it's often a common ploy to rob you one way or another. Keep it one chica at a time until you get to know them well enough that you trust them.

And lastly for new guys reading Osteo's posts just realize the chicas take care of him as he is "the golden goose that keeps on giving". So don't even think to try and replicate his style.

p.s. For many years they never scanned luggage but for the last year I've had my luggage scanned more often than not upon arrival.

I think for the most part you simply do not understand why people aren't writing out a complete "do's and don'ts" notebook for you.Not sure, but I think I was the first to respond to our crabby new friend with the free advice to stay home. My response was curt, did not offer any explanation, not very helpful, and glib.

I was being as serious as a heart attack.

I liken it to the old saying, "If you have to ask, then you can't afford it." This was the nature of his questions, in my opinion. They were coming from someone who was showing evidence that he would not be able to safely navigate the scene no matter what the info provided to him in his behalf. I could be wrong, in fact I hope I am.

When it comes to matters of personal safety or behaviors effecting other's safety, an experience in Medellin can turn sour in a hurry without a healthy dose of common and street sense. Those factors can be very hard if not impossible to teach. The overall odds are probably still in this guy's favor of coming out the other side relatively unscathed, so then it becomes a matter of degree of risk acceptance. Most of us do not walk around with the same risk tolerance. His responses still do not instill me with confidence. As you noted, he is obtuse, and I find too philosophical about a "nuts and bolts" topic that needs plain thinking and straight talking.

My free advice is not the final word, and he can take the sum of all the opinions from those who answered here and form his own hybrid opinion. I stand by my original answer, he's not ready. Maybe two years was too long of a waiting period, maybe not. Imagine for a moment if did actually study the forum and Spanish for "awhile." The difference in his situation could be huge. Or maybe he does not adapt well, how would I know? His responses have not given me the feeling that, "yeah, this guy is going to be receptive to criticism and be able to effectively modify his behaviors." I suppose time will tell. I don't want to see anyone get hurt.

So it seems that giving a phone provides a lot more value than cash? This has been mentioned many times. Chicas need money, but they love regalos (gifts). I can buy a 10 mil COP frock or something for a chica to wear over at the corner of the courtyard at Ground Zero. When I give it to her, she will act like it costs four time that.

They love plata or coins. If you give the identical amount of money in "silver" as paper, they again act as though the peso amount has significantly more intrinsic value in a metal than paper state, which of course is not true.

You can get a very nice performance ROI (Return on Investment) with the strategic use of inexpensive gifts. Of you don't have to worry about the ROI. Some guys pack and bring trinkets with them, others buy them in Medellin.

I give my regulars a Woman's day and / or a Christmas gift of 100 mil or so. And like Osteo said just because it makes me feel good to give them something extra. No other reason than that.

But for the guys who like to give new model I-phones those gifts will now be much more appreciated than in the past because Apple is not allowed to sell in Colombia at this time.

Truth be known I think far more guys are sending these girls money than we'd ever suspect, and larger amounts. Your choice but all you are doing is paying for them to take days off. It's why many Facebook girls go off the radar for days, weeks at a time. They try the money requests before the plan be which is work, but their life circumstances don't change. Poverty is a way of life that passes down from generation to generation.

P.S. As mentioned the high end phones will usually be converted to money so same thing.

So if Bill Gates went into McDonald's and paid $600 for a Happy Meal you would just think he was really hungry and the cheeseburger filled him up and the fries were hot? In other words he got the same Happy Meal that everybody else gets. Never mind the price of a Happy Meal is on the menu for $6? What you are saying is that because you have more money you should pay way more than things actually cost like the US government does by buying $400 hammers and $600 toilet seats? The government probably felt guilty paying the normal price because it has so much money.I hesitate on responding because I am one of these guys who wants this thread to stay focused on information on girls and places in Medellin. I think you're missing the point but that's fine.

But let's break down your comments. If Bill Gates went to McDonald's for a Happy Meal, and it was $6 and he gave the cashier $600, he would get $594 in change. At this point, he could, if he wanted, say to the cashier, that is for you to keep. Why would he do this? Well, he might want to make someone's day because he knows how much it would mean to that person. Should you overpay because you have more money? Of course not. But to some people with money, time is money and so they will pay more to save time such as a helicopter ride to go across town in Manhattan. But girls are not like non-fungible tokens and each girl is unique. I am sure that the girl Bill Gates will select will not be your typical street girl in El Centro.

The analogy to the USA Government overpaying for defense contracts is so off that I don't know where to begin so I will not discuss it.

My point is do what you want to do and don't worry about what others say. It's your money.

How are you able to bring in 40 phones at a pop? I've brought them, laptops, rare scotch in and re-sold to friends, but I always understood the limit was 3 or 4 phones before they tax you on the remainder. My luggage is also scanned 90% of the time. Am I missing something?He facetiously called himself a liar. He is not. Pollo is a straight shooter and an intelligent hustler who speaks fluent Spanish. I called him a businessman before in the sense that he sees all the angles.

He explained his system to me in detail with supporting documentation. Exactly that, it's a system that frankly is out of reach for the majority of guys here, so in that sense you are not missing out.

My reaction was, "Wow", respect, clever annnnnnd, waaay to much work for someone in my position. Maybe that makes me a bit on the lazy side but happiness and contentment can do that to a man.

I get the feeling that if even Pollo were the richest guy in Medellin, he's still be out there selling cell phones, one at a time to put some dinero in his pocket. Jajaja, I like him for that reason.

He reminds me of my other Medellin friend, Crazy George. They are nothing alike but I could write a very entertaining screenplay and put both characters in the same movie, jajajajaaja.

I'm in Atlantic Beach, Florida, chillin'. Got me a nice little twin turbo Cadillac rental that is very quick. Going to the beach and the gym today, is the only thing on my agenda. As nice as my life is here in the states, it ain't Medellin but I can use the change of pace for a little while.

Catgirl sent me a video last night of the huge, annual Flower Festival from inside a stadium somewhere in Medellin. I think the past couple of years it was cancelled, not sure, due to Covid, so it's nice to see that back.

Thanks again to all you guys who helped me work through some of this cell phone shit, I really will have a somewhat different approach now although I have always been a natural "giver". Change is never easy. The natural "takers" in the world smell guys like us like sharks smell blood in the water. That is no secret and I have known that for decades. I was married to a "taker" and she was a good match, and we are still great friends.

A lot of the times it feels like the entire female and male population of Medellin are takers, but they are also genuinely needy.

Remember, if a guy is a willing participant in giving, and he is not hurting himself materially (can't pay the bills he should) don't get upset about how other dudes spend their money. This is not a contest and even though money = love here, I have repeatedly said that you don't need a lot of money to find love here and probably most of the guys are not even looking for love. I am a love addict and if you think about it for a second, that explains a lot! Jajaja. Ostee Out and I see no reason why we all should not continue thru this craziness called life and Keep on Keepin' On! I am in a mood and my PBA is kicking in strong this morning, so I will say it, I love you guys!

You need to stop. You must have been born and raised in LA and believe the LA culture where everyone is special and deserves a prize. We do not give those out here. You mentioned mental health issues. Guess what? Most of us on this site have those, work through them (man-up), and are proud of them.

Also, I doubt it would take hours to explain. Obviously, some issues are complex but I found the answer to most of my questions anyway, I did comb the forums, but a general question would be what are some of thenon obvious ways you can be poisoned.Non obvious is when you don't see it happen, which is probably always the case if something has been added to your drink. Perhaps something can be put in your food instead. And it often happens in conjunction with being drunk when a lot of things may not be obvious. Or you think you are drunk and really you have been drugged with scopalamine.

On that subject. I think the local scope is home made, from leaves of trees common in Colombia. So dosages are a bit unpredictable. I have no idea what the range is, but it may well be quite different than the pharmaceutical preparations.

I thought your response was spot-on which is why I suggested to Mr. E that he took you a little too literally. He is often interested in any post about perceived value of the chicas, especially when it involves payment.

All harmless and the only opinion that matters as to what is appropriate to post, is admin or the moderators. People lose sight of that fact frequently here and post as if their personal agenda should be met as a primary purpose.

I do believe in awareness and cognizance of the mood or vibe or whatever you want to call it here. But in the end, unless you are getting blocked or deleted by admin, then what other users believe should or should not be posted is irrelevant. The goalposts can move a lot on that subject, too. There are more than a few "old-timers" here who have not quite come to grips that the Web site they are on now, is very different than when they joined, mostly due to the single biggest impact on society ever. The Internet.

Let some girl peg you with a strap-on made of yttrium-90.

Are you worried about being poisoned, or about being drugged? Unless you're a secret agent, nobody is going to poison you.

People get drugged by having Scopolamine put in their drink. Unless you are being drugged by a secret agent, there are no other reliable ways someone can drug you. If they cook for you, I suppose they could mix it into your food. Otherwise you'll likely notice. They don't blow it into your face, they don't rub it on their tits and they don't put it on doorknobs. They put it into your drink.

Specifically they put it into your drink when you aren't paying attention to your drink. If you're drunk it's easier to drug you. If you leave your drink unattended it's easier to drug you. If you let them mix drinks for you it's easier to drug you.

Jesus Christ and people say I need to stay home. IMO opinion there is no love not only in the United States with modern culture actively encouraging girls to be increasingly more transactional in music from the age of 13, but you don't think attractive girls in more or less than optimally stable countries aren't scouted and told about their value by the age of 15.

In my community, we call this the "captain save a hoe" mindset and for a man it is the most dangerous thing in the world and have gotten many a men in trouble and I guess will continue to do so.

Unless you have a annual income of 250 grand or more with no kids and obligations of significance like a mortgage. This is fucking ridiculous.You need to stay home, not for our sakes, but for yours. Your inability to read what is in front of you and take the right fork in the road will set you up for disaster. But hey, don't listen to me, what do I know? Come on down and you too can be the next contestant on The Price is Right. Jaajajjaaa. Good luck, my friend, you are going to need a huge, healthy dose of it here in Magical Medellin.

Also, I will beat one of our fellow philosophers on-line here to the punch, JuJuBee. If he has not already done so, he's going to recommend a little outside reading for you by Dale Carnegie, "How to Win Friends and Influence People". There is also "The Power of Positive Thinking" by NVP. I will even delve down into sales techniques with some good ol' fashioned Zig Ziglar, "Born to Win".

Peace Out and Stay Safe!

P.S. If it seems to my fellow mongerers I have too much time on my hands, you are right! Kickin' it and relaxing here in Pussy Prision without all that sex and drugs really frees up a guy's schedule, jajajajajajaaa.

You didn't even get the captain sav-a-hoe thing right.

Many mongers do nice things for various girls. It can be something as simple as putting $5 worth of data on their phone, or as extravagant as buying them a house. Generally it's because the girl is something more than just a paid fuck.

It's not dangerous at all. In fact it's healthy. Socially you are recognizing the value of another person. Physically, assuming you are picking the right girls, you have someone with a vested interest in your continued health and safety. Emotionally, you are doing something which makes you happy. Sexually, you've moved things to a new level.

If you can afford to travel to a foreign country for the purpose of fucking, you can afford to treat people right.

I haven't, my point wasn't everyone needs special snowflake sensitivity treatment my point is in generally being an all around shithead to people who are genuinely trying to avoid adversity is stupid. (Man up) dude are you fucking like 12 years old. Just because I am of the opinion that men should support each other instead of crab in a barrel super simping to find "the one" and (man up) which basically entails accepting the fact that in the modern era men kinda get shit on by society through divorce rape and the family court system and modern media that treats men like walking wallets. It has nothing to do with being a fucking snowflake and everything to do with getting rid of this crabs in a barrel bulkshit between men that is counter productive. To a certain extent the crabs in a barrell mindset is natural because men compete for women but jn the modern era it accomplishes absolutely nothing.

I am a noob obviously, my whole point with the crabs in a barrel thing is to not treat noobs like shit. Whatever man, like I don't even know where to find the Lazy Mans Guide to Stay Safe in Medellin, even pointing there would have been helpful but instead we have some 55 year old probably non minority with more or less the benefit of wealth generation through culturally propagated advantages, and compound interest crying about how the noobs just need to know everything automatically, in relation to the cpt save a hoe business, I'm not a noob, some will say "treating a woman right" but imagine if you fall on hard times and your bank account suffers. It may be the case of throwing around money like daddy warbucks you have these girls return the fzvor and help you out in your time of need but lets be honest. The probability if that is slim to none. Are you going to say the girl didn't "treat you right" in that instance. Come on man. If you are confident your what I presume to be wealth will last forever that's fine, but we call it cpt save a hoe for the precise reason that you aren't fucking jesus christ dude, you are exchanging your wealth for these women's beauty and youth at a much lower cost than in the US where the exact same thing is done.

If you overpay knowing the market you are making a choice and such is your right. Of course it's their "right. " And others have a right to call them out while informing them against their fantasies how they are actually perceived by the girls. This likely won't benefit them but may benefit many in the audience who decide not to take the same path.

Does it have a negative effect on others? This has been beaten to death. The short answer is no. [/QUOTE][QUOTE=Villainy;2732471]The short answer is of course yes, as it is simply ludicrous to argue that the buying behavior of consumers in a particular market has no effect on other consumers. That said, there's a number of different markets in Medellin. For example consumer behavior in Centro will have little to no effect on the Facebook market. And if one fool is throwing money at a handful of street girls this likely will have limited effect on that market, as it just makes certain girls unavailable while he is supporting them. But throw a bunch of like fools in the same market and there's liable to be noticeable difference.

Regarding Facebook, lets take for example the many suckers that "sponsor" or send girls money between trips or give them new IPhones they can sell. There's a lot of these, and they are largely the reason why many of the hotter girls regularly go off the radar for days and weeks at a time. This is quite common and many have multiple sponsors while a sucker thinks he has a girlfriend. As stated in an earlier post, they are only paying for these girls to take days off as your typical Latin hooker won't work unless they need money. It's a lifestyle and poverty is generational. But the supply is shrunk while many have no incentive to work, and especially that of the hotter girls which "effects others," both in the way of less availability and pricing to some degree, though the former is the larger issue. That said, you can always get a third string FB girl to come over. That doesn't interest me, but others have been effected by the behavior of other consumers, whether informed or uninformed. This is simply Captain Obvious moment and fundamental truth one should grasp in grade school.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Am3FjwsNqXc

As to this getting "beat to death," it shouldn't be. The reason it is though is because a big nerve is struck with suckers when called out, and, given all the needless money they have blown they will fight to the death to defend themselves, brag about how rich they are comparing themselves to Bill Gates (yawns) when we all know that the truly wealthy aren't in Medellin chasing hookers in the scenes we frequent. Or as we so often hear, "it doesn't matter how much I spend as long as I have a good time," but they are still suckers that the girls laugh at behind their backs and we are free to critique them. It probably won't help them but will help many who might be tempted to go down the same path.

If we are really going with, "this guy probably doesn't get any sex at all hur hur hurr" argument.

ID say the crabs in a barrel thing is kinda hopeless. I'm relatively young I use to work security at a high end strip club.

With like 8,9 10 light skinned women that woukd run about a grand a night (for the best ones) . I mean I know this sounds like posturing but it's not.

If the whole, (OMG this guy can't get seggs) argument is what you want to play man I give up.

I am a noob obviously, my whole point with the crabs in a barrel thing is to not treat noobs like shit. Whatever man, like I don't even know where to find the Lazy Mans Guide to Stay Safe in Medellin, even pointing there would have been helpful but instead we have some 55 year old probably non minority with more or less the benefit of wealth generation through culturally propagated advantages, and compound interest crying about how the noobs just need to know everything automatically, in relation to the cpt save a hoe business, I'm not a noob, some will say "treating a woman right" but imagine if you fall on hard times and your bank account suffers. It may be the case of throwing around money like daddy warbucks you have these girls return the fzvor and help you out in your time of need but lets be honest. The probability if that is slim to none. Are you going to say the girl didn't "treat you right" in that instance. Come on man. If you are confident your what I presume to be wealth will last forever that's fine, but we call it cpt save a hoe for the precise reason that you aren't fucking jesus christ dude, you are exchanging your wealth for these women's beauty and youth at a much lower cost than in the US where the exact same thing is done.Are you ok? Did you stop to consider that it's not noobs that get treated like shit. It's just you? In an effort to turn this into a productive post for any noobs. Just read the fourm. It is literally the lazy man's guide. Both this one and Bogota. All the advice you need is there. Take your first trip and be careful. Then go from there. Don't be or think like an entitled asshole and you will be fine. It could not be spelled out more clearer. That's it. I'm 37. Not wealthy. Don't pretend to be. Average shape and average looking. I like and respect Latinas. I banged 30+ girls last trip for not a ton of money. And I approve this message. And I can mostly spell and properly form sentences that are not angry.

Being nice gets you a long way. I got sick my last trip. I had two women offering to go to the hospital with me, cook for me, and take care of me. It cost me nothing extra other than being a normal human being and I never asked. And I would do the same for them. Not that it matters because everyone should do what feels right. But with one of them no phones and no money has ever exchanged hands other than dinner and event tickets.

One should ask how many males or females do you know that would do that? In Colombia or back home? Hopefully many. If not, one should reflect. If you want transactional sex it's as easy as showing up with some basic fourm reading. If you want more. Read the fourm harder and participate. Or not and find your own way.

BTW. When you participate people interact positivity with you. And then you can meet up with them and exchange knowledge. Or just show up and have some sex. It's not like anyone is entitled to anything.

You'll learn nothing about any of that here except in the world of make believe. P4P is a transaction, and anything beyond that typicallly is about fantasies you've created in your head that something more is going on.

If anyone wants GFE bullet points, IE. No condom, DFK, etc. These can be negotiated for in advance. If you want them to hang out, dinner, movie so you can feel like you have a date someone other than a hooker, yes, some will agree but you'll be charged for their services.

More than once I have gotten very sick in MDE, the worst episode was pre-Covid, my first trip when I assumed I was getting exposed to some new, foreign (literally) virus that knocked me on my ass like nothing I ever experienced before in my life.

The way the chicas lined up to care for me, feed me, bathe me, change my linens, bring me medicine, all without being asked or paid was one of the first times I knew I found a very special place. And they kept wanting to take me to the hospital, but I somehow managed to avoid it.

I am sure that the girl Bill Gates will select will not be your typical street girl in El Centro.Bill Gates isn't going to Medellin to chase hookers, nor is any other billionaire. Even if he did there's still no point in him paying many times the going rate. That's the point and why your analogy failed.


My point is do what you want to do and don't worry about what others say. It's your money.Everyone already knows it's their money and they are free to spend it how they wish. But if you spend like a fool and come here telling us about it expect critiques from the community for the good of others who may be tempted to do the same. "A fool and his money are soon parted." And they usually care a lot about what others think as they'll spend so much time defending themselves. That's why these discussions take forever to wind down.

I am not sure what your realistic timeframe might be on this but based on how you progressed from bad to worse, I'm going to say on the long side of the time interval. Perhaps sometime in the 2030's, after you've had some more time to ripen or "mature".

Another very viable and probably your best option is simply to go into total lurker mode. That way you can still learn a lot, read a lot, and then we don't have to suffer as much. Thanks for playing, see ya wouldn't want to be ya, and all that jazz.

Treat people like human beings, like you would expect to be treated, and you can expect the same in return. This is why I get exasperated by some folks here that constantly go on about prostitution being an immoral thing, that these chicas are low life, by finding 'higher quality', all this priveleged and "superior' garbage, that does nothing but show their own prejudices. They are human beings trying to make their way thru life, often from a very disadvantaged starting point. They usually want a little respect, like most people do.

And anyone who does not believe this probably did not watch Costa Rica over the last 25 years.Define "buying behaviors" which is not exactly an economic term.

If you mean more sheer numbers of people showed up and supply could not keep up with demand, then yes, that will drive up prices every time in a free market.

If by "behaviors" you or someone is referring to the prices being paid by the consumers, that does not set price and has no effect independent of supply and demand on what other people pay.

Given the size of Costa Rica and it's remarkable economic expansion already mentioned by a third person on this string, sounds like it was the former. Also, given the differences in scale between Costa Rica and Colombia, I have seen it written here many times that there is very little to be gleaned from a direct comparisons between the two countries.

Which is free advice from strangers. So yeah, you do you and keep writing a wall of gibberish text riddled with errors. This isn't a fourm lesson. Just a life one.

And anyone who does not believe this probably did not watch Costa Rica over the last 25 years.It's equally ludicrous when someone states that a mere increase in numbers (demand) will drive up prices. Someone who thinks that not only never took any economics classes, but has never been to Bara Ejectiva in Medellin. Demand there is glorious but prices remain constant as the Colombianos can't afford to pay more. You could stuff twice as many more in there and the price would still remain the same.

What's relevant is the "type" of consumers or volume of those willing and able to pay higher prices. Throw a bunch of suckers with $ in the mix and prices will rise. Service levels will also decline as the same will put up with it.

Safe travels mi amigo. I'm in Santiago, Chile at the moment, having a cafe con leche, awaiting a nice Chilean muchacha who I met on my last visit here.You know I feel the same way about helping good people out. It's funny that guy keeps complaining about people not helping people out, but thinks the most dangerous thing man can do is help out a woman.

What's your issue with guys who are 55 or older? If you're looking for useful information you're more likely to get it from a 55 year old guy who has been visiting Medellin for 20 years than from a 30 something who has watched a couple of YouTube videos.

The 3 F approach (find them, fuck them and forget them) works well.There's a middle ground between the casa or street quickie and the sucker that buys $600 Iphones, sends $ for the sick perro, deludes himself into thinking he has a girlfriend, or all of the above. With this third way you become familiar with a girl and develop a business relationship where each of you is more comfortable as you know what each other likes and expects during the time together. Yes they are treated like a human being while no delusions are embraced. Requests for expensive gifts and Western Unions are of course rejected. I typically have a few of these that I either met in casas, strip clubs, or on FB. If I get tired of them I move along as there are plenty of other choices.

Of course, the Klunker who you tried to defend appears as soulless as you, but you can't just defend Klunker on your own, you have to attack two of the other more (way more than you) "respected" (okay Smurfer Dude, you got me) users here? Are you so delusional that you believe the average user here holds your opinion in some kind of regard?

Tell me really, what are you imagining is the slime trail you leave behind after a post like that? Particularly when juxtaposed to the rational posts you chose to attack? I am genuinely curious, does it feel like you made a worthwhile point? Are you kidding me? You are like the Klunker onto whom you have decided to hitch your wagon train. You look bad from the beginning and then after you post, you look worse.

Does it cross your mind even for a second that most of the feedback here from numerous different users toward Klunker has been overwhelmingly negative? For some unknown, irrational, biased, reason you singled out JuJuBee and Balbao to demonstrate your ineffectiveness.

Maybe you fancy yourself an "independent" thinker, I dunno, someone not afraid to go against popular opinion? I can think of another word that fits that definition especially in your case, starts with a capital "A" and ends with what results from the usual interaction between a shovel and dirt.

Your M. O. Is so blatantly obvious that it is truly sad. You perceive anyone who is not like you (last time I checked, people were avoiding wanting to be "pathetic") as not just different, but inferior or flawed, to cover your own insecurities and shattered ego. As always, classic denial and projection. You are the poster-boy for those defense mechanisms on the Web site. Accept your lot in life, take some responsibility for your existence being a direct result of the decisions you made over time, not others, and maybe you can find some peace. I doubt it.

Carry on as I know you will. Ignorance is bliss, they tell me. You seem to have cornered the market, there.

And typically on Monday's the talk would be about how far how someone got with a new date. First base (kissing), second base (feeling her boobies), third base (finger banging) and finally fourth base, that's about what all of us here have been paying for here being in the "Pay-Pool".

And the girls back then had their own approach, being FUD, meaning Find them, Use Them, and Dump them.

No truer words have been spoken.I have contempt for feminism for its victimizing females but I love it when women show themselves to be clever. One of the few women who said something crazy smart I have seen was on Shark Tank, Barbara Cochran, and I loved it. She said men want control, and they will do anything so long as they think they are in control even destroying the business. If you suck at making decisions about women, something I have admitted I am not good at, why not ask other women to evaluate your choice of women and listen to them like I did? Maybe you should try getting a few smart female friends you can trust and start listening as opposed to being a stupid control freak.

The stupid men here they think that they can control what other men pay for sex like that is going to happen. Again, that is man as stupid control freak.

If there's one newbie throwing ridiculous money at chicas, it likely won't have any effect on the market. But when that newbie reports it and other newbies read it and think that's the going rate, it most definitely can have an effect on the market.

Guys have a right to pay whatever they feel like. But at the same time, participants in this forum have a right to point out that the guy is paying over the going rate.

Guys have a right to pay whatever they feel like. But at the same time, participants in this forum have a right to point out that the guy is paying over the going rate.People wished it worked as you described because then they would psychologically feel empowered, as though they have some control over price by what they and others pay, but that is delusional. The way price is determined in a free market is much more fair, equitable and preferable, as determined by the Law of Supply and Demand.

In your example, if the newbie's actions of "throwing ridiculous money at chicas" are enough to increase the NUMBER of people visiting a destination (not sure why that would happen) and supply cannot keep up, then the increased demand from the number of newbies (not what they pay) can drive up prices.

Guys here, there, or anywhere can "report" whatever they perceive about payment, but it will have no effect on price. As far as a "right" that is a misnomer since it serves no overall purpose. Sure, freedom of speech and all that. The problem is, a lot if not most of the guys here "reporting" what they feel are appropriate prices are doing so because they are under the delusion that the original payor and now themselves are somehow effecting price, presumably in their favor, when they are not.

If it's your best buddy and you feel he needs the help, that is a separate topic but again, will not ever effect the price other people pay, over time, in the long run. No one can control what any individual pays at any given time, which again, is why it is a waste of time to "report" it.

Mongers who don't understand this are pretending to know more than a theory that became a law and won the Nobel Prize in economics over 100 years ago (I didn't check dates, feel free) and has never been proven wrong since. Do you know anyone here that smart? I don't.

In your example, if the supply and demand equilibrium point does not shift, then other chicas will simply undercut what you are calling the "going rate" to keep the price stable. Payment does not determine price in a free market. Not now, not ever.

Forget about payment and the final price when the guy in your example "makes it rain". Instead, look at the number of gringos / newbies / tourists in the market, how it changes over time, and does supply (putas / wet holes / chicas) adjust to this change or not? You are on the edge of understanding the concept, actually the "Law" of Supply and Demand, but you are not there, yet. Keep trying, don't give up. Once you "get it", it's one of those economic concepts that will open your eyes in many different ways that you can use in life.

Guys have a right to pay whatever they feel like. But at the same time, participants in this forum have a right to point out that the guy is paying over the going rate.I dunno. Whenever guys start talking about rights, I start to think about maybe hitting them with several quick lefts. With rights come responsibilities, such as to do minimal research. Mongering in Latin America pre-internet, while speaking Spanish, was considerably more advantageous than what's happening now. Granted, pre internet and pre cell phones, you had a hard time keeping in contact with your favorite hookers. But that was probably a good thing! But for we gringos who spoke Spanish, none of this internet / translator / forum shit is an improvement over forty years ago. It just enables the amateurs.

But sometime next month is my 50th anniversary of my first hooker, so I have seen quite a few changes over the years. And you can't fight change.

It's lingo from a younger generation. Each has their own colloquialisms. There's no point in touching any of that as it has nothing to do with the issues under discussion.No. It's not lingo from a younger generation. If so, he would be using it everywhere. He only used it when he was being insulting. Since the core issue is how to get useful information from others, being insulting is counterproductive.


There's a middle ground between the casa or street quickie and the sucker that buys $600 Iphones, sends $ for the sick perro, deludes himself into thinking he has a girlfriend, or all of the above. With this third way you become familiar with a girl and develop a business relationship where each of you is more comfortable as you know what each other likes and expects during the time together. Yes they are treated like a human being while no delusions are embraced. Requests for expensive gifts and Western Unions are of course rejected. I typically have a few of these that I either met in casas, strip clubs, or on FB. If I get tired of them I move along as there are plenty of other choices.There are as many middle grounds as there are mongers. Over the years most mongers try different things until they settle into a routine. Although I appreciate you making my point that if you can afford to travel for sex you can afford to treat people right.

But let's skip all of that and focus on delusion.

When I say I have a girlfriend, where is the delusion? Is it because I think she loves me? If I had stated such a thing, it might be delusion, but unless you know her better than I do it's delusional to think you know.

Frankly, love isn't part of the equation. Love is a subjective response to a mix of emotional and physical stimuli. It's not quantifiable or dependable. I love (within my subjective definition) many people who I would never attempt to share housing with.

Is it delusional to think the current situation will last forever. Possibly. Someone intimately familiar with the arrangement might make an accurate prediction on its lifespan. Personally, I'm not a believer in relationships lasting forever. When it's time to move on, I move on.

Is it delusional to think she's exclusive to me? In this case not at all. Through my home security system I know when she comes and goes and when anyone enters. It helps that she knows only 2 people locally, both friends of mine and female.

The only thing left depends on whether her behavior is consistent with expected girlfriend behavior. Since I'm the only one here familiar with her behavior, anyone who believes they know is delusional.

Certainly there are many guys believing in something which exists only in their minds. I remember a fan of my old roommate, the webcam model. When he dug deep enough to find her private, only for family Instagram account he learned she had a boyfriend. All along he thought he was her boyfriend, although he had never made an attempt to meet her in person. He was devastated. Many others have a couple of dates with a hooker and believe she's in love, when she's just playing them. However, there are a few who find actual relationships.

You attack the guy with no other basis than his lack of writing skills. Maybe English isn't his first language. Or perhaps he is inebriated like many seem to be when posting here regardless of which side they take. But then you brag about "traveling the world" as if that gives you some kind of one up or expertise. But wait a sec, aren't you the guy who was on the other thread sticking up for hookers who ask for $ for the sick baby, while recommending that guys send it in hopes of a great fuck later? It's a shame to spend so much time and money on travel and remain so gullible, as you aren't the only foreigner she is sending this request to. And yes, over the drinks and drugs you paid for she is laughing at you with her friends and real boyfriend. Enjoy your coffee, now wake up and smell it if you dare. LOL.Say what? Lol.

There are some desperados en El Centro. Haha.For real, I do the bnb's around centro (prado, boston, etc.) and will not deal with any pests. Maybe a decade ago, but past that point in my life.

The good thing is that MDE has a lot of high rises, so there's generally no problem.

The giant 3 inch roaches you see in the streets around parque berrio, I have never encountered those in an apartment. I always try and stay above the 7th floor or so.

Occasionally, the apartments will have the German roaches, those little fuckers that are like half an inch long. When you see those, that means there is an infestation, and there's no getting rid of them.

In that case, I just send a picture of them to Airbnb support and get a full refund, and go somewhere else.

Those dudes who stay in the nutibara and have no problem with vermin, that must be some good p*ssy they're bringing back there to deal with that!

Forget about roaches and start worrying about bedbugs. #1 if you stay in a room with two beds, do NOT put your suitcase on the spare bed even if it seems handy. #2 keep any chicas' backpacks (yours too of course) or purses off your beds or couches. Keep all that stuff on hard surfaces. Roaches, I just plan on using a full can of Raid on arrival and buggering off for several hours, then sweeping the fuckers out into the hallway. I have never had a rat in a hotel room but once I rented an apartment in Buenos Aires and a rat ran across my face while I was sleeping. That was very disturbing. Turned out they were living in the window air conditioner and eventually got hungry enough to eat through the insulation so papa rat could squeeze through the louvers and get some food. A day or two later I succeeded in chasing him up into the drop ceiling but later that day I had a hooker over and we were have a post coital snack and the rat fell through the drop ceiling and landed about foot from us, then buggered off under my bed. Did not really faze the hooker, whom I had known for years. This was all over a long holiday weekend and the rental agency was unavailable. I could not deal with the rat under the bed so I went to a hotel for two nights and the agency finally sent some paraguayan dude over and he dismantled the AC and there was a whole nest of baby rats and a big fat momma rat in there. And a whole trail of food and styrofoam insulation. They were definitely getting ready to move right in. I remember him walking out of that apartment with a canvas bag full of squirming rats. I couldn't eat for a couple of days and had to hire someone else to clean up all the rat shit and spilled food because that was not in his job description. The agency said they would send someone in the 'next day or two' but I couldn't sleep with rat shit either.

Great and disgusting story.

I've been in couple airbnbs in Buenos Aires / Bombona but luckily all clean (all high-rises).

Regarding Nutibara, to clarify: I haven't see a roach bigger than half cm there (and never seen mentioned earlier 3 inch roaches ever, kind of scary), most of them were very small ones, roaming in the evenings. They also sprayed the room when I mentioned it. I think it helped a little but overall preferred to stomp on couple times than inhale the poison daily.

Some people seem to think that the higher you are the fewer rats but my experience was on the 8th floor in a building with 4 meter ceilings. I was also not aware that rats can climb walls. I knew little about rats at the time of the incident but have since learned much. They can collapse the exoskeleton and flatten themselves to enter things like your air conditioning unit. Know your enemy. Because when a rat uses its claws to traverse your face in the night, it is bad ju ju. I instinctively knew what had happened but tried to convince myself it was a bird. I really knew it was not but then I saw the big fat rat. Just sayin' here.

I once saw a disgusting documentary about the rat capabilities you describe. It turns out they can fit their entire bodies through any opening that is at least as large as their heads. They can climb walls and run across thin electrical cables at high speed. They can jump distances of up 1. 5 meters. Roach infestations are not limited by altitude either. I discovered this on the 25th floor of a Shanghai hotel.

A flight attendant I dated for a time explained to me the only way to consistently avoid bringing bedbugs back him in your luggage is to keep your suitcase in the hotel room bathtub overnight. The first time I saw her do it I thought she was out of her mind until she explained what it was about. Their risk is much higher because they are in different hotel rooms every couple of days.

They also are known to have trouble climbing slippery surfaces as are found in the bathroom. Given that they are skilled hitchhikers, it makes sense to keep your luggage there as opposed to by the bed. One should also check for an infestation when they first enter the room by examining the mattress and headboards.

The bathtub may just be the most convenient hard surface. It's not like there is a lot of open counter space and if it's just on the bathroom floor it's probably still in the way in most hotel bathrooms. Seems like a good idea to me.

My second or third time in Colombia I was leaving the hotel on the way to the airport and my card would not go through to pay the hotel. My mortgage had been taken out twice for some reason and there was no more money in the account. I ended up leaving my suitcase instead of paying and told them I would pay the money next time I came.

Bedbugs are indiscriminate, and are also found in high end hotels. They also are very much on the rise, especially in North America, according to one study.

Ho hum. Yes. Well, how do I put this. I will just tell you staright and no doubt suffer the ire of several. I know already.

Its a symptom of capitalism. In a dog eat dog world, in a poor // developing nation, nature still holds sway. Just as cats and dogs and other animals discard their abnormal offspring bcos they know they cannot support them, people with disabilities. Physical and mental. Are discarded by their familes. Families simply cannot afford to help them bcos they receive wholly inadequate support from the government. So we see the weakest and most vulnerable discarded and thrown on to the streets, where they float downstream and end up in the pool that is El Centro. A place where they can find a piece of grass to lay on and plenty of people to beg from. They are the rejects of society and must live out their lives in misery and being an eyesore and a frustration to everyone else.

But hey, who wants high taxes when it means one less FK per month. Let them suffer, they are not our concern.

Rarely Bedbugs are found across the whole spectrum, from the Marriott down to hostels and everything in between. All they need to do is hitch a ride in a suitcase. Sources were provided and plenty more are in Google. It comes down to who you'd listen to, a pest control expert or a guy making up nursey rhymes in a hooker forum.

"'Bed bugs can be present in any hotel no matter how expensive the rooms may be. In fact, we just had a pest control company mention to us the other day that all the calls they are seeing right now are in your higher-priced properties,' said Jeff White, chief product officer at the pest control manufacturer SenSci. That said, bed bugs definitely tend to be a bigger issue in lower-socioeconomic settings for an assortment of reasons,' he added.

So calling them "rare" in higher end hotels would certainly be an overstatement. But you aren't in a high end place but in a 3 star hotel on La 70, so you told us, stretching your retirement income in a developing country while claiming to be an investment expert. So any safety regarding bedbugs in high end dwellings, even if it were true, wouldn't apply to you. Oh well. Looks like a swing and a miss on all counts. LOL Next time do some research before engaging your mouth, pretty simple.

Here's more on bed bugs in five star US hotels. So why not do a few minute inspection when checking into any rental property? This is what the people who know what they are talking recommend. It's simply a myth that bed bugs are only found in high traffic dumps and spending more money on a room buys safety. For one thing they are a very different phenomenon than cockroaches. Good discussion gentlemen.

Inspections.

Creating your own nursey rhymes I see. I haven't felt so insulted since kindergarten.Gee, I thought you would feel right at home. Most children (or in your case childish personality) like nursery rhymes.

If you read your own source you would have learned something. The reason high priced properties have a lot less problems with infestations is because they take action and have the pests eradicated.

Of course, I can see why that would have escaped you. You stay at the "Motel 6 Mil" where they leave the lights on for you. That is so that the cockroaches and rats stay out of sight.


.......stretching your retirement income in a developing country while claiming to be an investment expert. Gee Paulie, I'm stretching my income by traveling, staying in high-end properties, paying girls too much (according to your crack-w**re tastes). Are you jealous? Maybe if you learn to save and invest you too could have a comfortable retirement where you enjoy all the world has to offer. Jajajaja. Paulie want a cracker?

The reason high priced properties have a lot less problems with infestations is because they take action and have the pests eradicated. This is what the pest control expert said:

"Bed bugs can be present in any hotel no matter how expensive the rooms may be. In fact, we just had a pest control company mention to us the other day that all the calls they are seeing right now are in your higher-priced properties. Roadside hotels and motels where you have a higher incidence of extended-stay residents anecdotally can have a higher incidence of issues compared to some of your higher-end hotels, but honestly, it can all vary dramatically from property to property. ".

So from "rare" to "a lot less," keep moving the goal posts, you'll get there eventually. Wink I refer eveyone back to my post from today with the heading "Summary. " Brief inspections are worthwhile when checking into a new rental property, regardless of the rental rates, so says pest control specialists and entomologists. Thus your thesis folds and the discussion was worthwhile. Anything else from you is only noise attempting to save face after entering the discussion with arrogance while stepping on your dick.

Not to mention that bed bugs can be very tough to eradicate even with prompt treatment as a number of steps are carried through over a three to six week period. They are extremely resilient. Reports from guests may also be slow coming as many do not have severe reactions from bites, plus it typically takes from one to fourteen days for bites to appear so a connection to the hotel may not be made.


Gee Paulie, I'm stretching my income by traveling, staying in high-end properties, paying girls too much (according to your crack-w**re tastes). Are you jealous? Maybe if you learn to save and invest you too could have a comfortable retirement where you enjoy all the world has to offer. Jajajaja. Paulie want a cracker?No you are living in a budget traveler area, on La 70, strata 3 neighborhood out of 6, where there are no "high end hotels. " You can't even afford a place in El Pablado or to set yourself up in a luxury apartment as you've been in that mid range hotel since the start of the pandemic. And you aren't "traveling the world. " You're stuck in that same hotel in a single developing country sitting by your fan at a Spartan desk arguing over the internet. It's sad that this is all the "luxury" and lifestyle that your completed work life can afford. Jajaja Thus my aim is laughing at pretenders. Monger communities are full of them.

I didn't realize you were overpaying girls. Perhaps you can tone that down while earning some respect and will be able to afford a better room, or even an apartment! Be ambitious! Jajaja.

Myself, I enjoy living in Florida but spend about four months a year in Medellin. A short flight and I'm there for vacation. It's the best of both worlds.

So from "rare" to "a lot less," keep moving the goal posts, you'll get there eventually. I guess you aren't very skilled with language. Rare and "a lot less" are synonyms.


No you are living in a budget traveler area, on La 70, strata 3 neighborhood out of 6, where there are no "high end hotels." I guess if you tell the same lie enough times you start to believe it.

https://medellinliving.com/best-medellin-neighborhoods/

"Laureles-Estadio is known as Comuna 11 and it has 15 barrios (neighborhoods). 99% of the homes in this comuna are classified as estrato 4 or 5 and only 1% of homes are classified as estrato 2 or 3. It has no homes classified as estrato 1 or estrato 6."

https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laureles-Estadio_(Medell%C3%ADn).

It would be hard to find a strata 3 building in Estadio-Laureles (communa 11) since 98+% of this area is strata 4 or 5.

But of course, you wouldn't know anything about that because you stay in the cheapest hovels around. No wonder you're so experienced with bed-bugs. I bet you're experienced with crabs too. How about lice?


You can't even afford a place in El Pablado or to set yourself up in a luxury apartment as you've been in that mid range hotel since the start of the pandemic.Afford a place? I seriouisly considered buying a place in Poblado but there was one drawback I couldn't get away from. Too fricken hilly. Which is why I settled in Laureles. Very walkable and since I'm comfortable with Spanish, that isn't an issue for me. My hotel is the nicest property in Laureles but you couldn't afford to stay here not even on one of your short little "vacations".

But that's OK Paulie Wolly Doodle, I hear there are still lots of hostels and cheapo hotels just waiting for you.


And you aren't "traveling the world."Well, Paulie Wolly Doodle, you caught me there. I haven't really traveled the world. Just three trips, one to Asia and two to Europe. But none to Australia, Africa, Antartica (3 of the 4 A's) I usually take one planned trip each year. I'll make sure to let you know when I take one in 2023.

Speaking of travelling. How are those Spirit ticket prices? With oil prices much higher, I hope you haven't been priced out.

La 70 area is primarily middle class strata 4, not 3, but no "high end" hotels on that strip. You have to go to El Pablado for that and to find the wealthy, where the vast majority of homes are ranked as strata 6.

Is it just me, or do you see a ton of disabled people everyday in MDE?

Blind people with canes. People missing arms and legs, tons of cleft palates or cleft noses, etc.

And this is everyday, in the states I see this like once in a blue moon.

What is the reason for this? Underdeveloped / expensive healthcare?I mostly agree with JustTK. I would say healthcare in Colombia is quite developed (relative to similar countries), but it is not easily accessible to most, particularly those in rural areas.

Also, Colombia is light years better than places in Asia, particularly the Philippines or India. The poverty there is on another level, biblical conditions like leprosy are still endemic. We all have a lot to be thankful for!

You still can't even spell El Poblado correctly (for the second time). Have you ever stayed in a 4 or 5 star hotel?

Here is a list of several and I recognize several that are either on la 70 or just off la 70.

https://www.luxuryhotelsguides.com/?fullufi=-592318&gclid=Cj0KCQjwjvaYBhDlARIsAO8PkE21wpmCQoI4miUMnzBiDPqmtM-vFEYButXLWVaHNICwR6oRP_WN7TAaAldHEALw_wcB

And if you think the wealthy only live in El Poblado you're not very knowledgeable about Medellin, which should come as no surprise to anyone. Want to find other enclaves of wealthy Colombians? Try Zuniga area of Envigado or Conquistadores-Laureles, or Parque Laureles-Laureles.

What is the reason for this? Underdeveloped / expensive healthcare?One explanation that I was given many years ago, 45+, is that much of it was a result of medicines taken by the mother and possibly the father. Many drugs that became banned here in USA were allowed to be sold in other countries. Kind of like many pesticides and defects may be attributed to that also. No doubt that economic status and access to quality healthcare definitely contribute.
