Thank's so much to everyone for the comments!
[QUOTE=Kazeu;2488410]I agree with pretty much everything you said.
If I were him, I would hit the dating sites and just come down and meet some girls. Don't talk about money or arrangements. Just have a good time. But in the end expect that you'll be dishing out money for the girl, but don't write it up in a contract.[/QUOTE]I am getting a feeling that rather than $250 a month for a sugar baby, a starting price would be $1000. Is that reasonable? That is still a definite possibility for me. I am talking about using Seeking Arrangement. There seem to be tons of Medellin girls on there now.
I guess my feeling is that the difference between a sugar baby and a prostitute is safety. A sugar baby is going to be staying in a nice a condo with a man who she has gotten to know, who is clean (physically and also clean drug wise), polite, non-violent etc. She's not taking much of a risk of being beaten up or ending up with her dismembered torso in dumpster, which I assume is a factor which street walkers have to add into their prices.
Besides that, if she's a "regular" girl, in college for example, there isn't the stigma of walking the streets and being seen by people who know her. She's just hanging out with her American "papi". Maybe a little embarrassing, but no different than Melania Trump.
Plus you are "buying in bulk" which should get a discount.
About sex, I mean it's not a must for me. For that, I can just watch porn and masturbate. We'll see how we feel about each other. I am looking mainly for the emotional connection. That's important.
Please comment if I am getting this right or not.
Man seeking platonic relationship

I have never asked for full time arrangement so I don't know the rate they are expecting. I suspect for full time arrangement, it may be more of taking care of all her need, or her family, it could cost more, or it could cost less.
For US$1000, you may get 2 or 3 part time arrangements that are a few hours at a time. It's not practical to jump directly to full time arrangement. You can make a part time arrangement to see where it leads. If you do find one with connection, it may cost less than you are expecting.

The problem is there are many people fit that description and are willing to be generous. You are basically dating a girl who has issues so don't expect it to be a simple monetary transaction long term.

To the SB, it may mean a completely different thing which means taking care of her whole family. You can get a discount in that case if you do it for a full year, but probably not one month at a time
What you want is not the norm. Even if it works for someone, it does not mean it will work for you. I think you need to try it to find out on your own.
You can make emotional connection with a paid SA membership now
[QUOTE=HarryDubois;2488469]Considering the huge of number Medellin girls on SA, I'm a little surprised that more people don't have more detailed information.
I guess I will have to come over and explore.[/QUOTE]That is what I will do and report back to fill in the blanks. You can pay the premium membership fee and chat with girls to make emotional connection now. I think you will have some takers for $100 platonic relationship before your arrival.
The reason there is not "more detailed info" as you put it,
[QUOTE=HarryDubois;2488469]Considering the huge of number Medellin girls on SA, I'm a little surprised that more people don't have more detailed information.
I guess I will have to come over and explore.[/QUOTE]Is because you keep asking questions that others cannot answer for you. You described yourself as being very attractive in Waspy, Anglo-Saxon sort of way. Great. The girls like that down there. That also puts a bullseye on you for more nefarious activities. You sound inexperienced and "lonely" to use your own words. The chicas will smell that like a shark smells blood. I am not trying to scare you off. But take it slow. I would recommend against going down to Medellin with some sort of preconceived master plan of finding a novia for XXX pesos to be your GFE on a monthly basis or whatever it is you are trying to set up. ALL the great girl things that have happened to me in Medellin, and other continents, were more or less unplanned. I was in the right place at the right time. Chance favors the prepared mind. And then you have this theme of trying to cheap out on prices. Do you think that helps your cause? I dunno, maybe you need a wingman or someone who can show you the ropes. I think you are setting yourself up for disappointment and hopefully nothing worse. But don't let me dissuade you. That is the point. You have to make your own way. There are some basic principles but there is not a formula for success and happiness. My best Gringo friend committed suicide in Medellin because he thought he would find all the sex and love he wanted, and when he didn't, and got trapped by the quarantine, it was too depressing for him. That's a real downer to post here but I think it's germane. If you are unhappy where you are now, don't expect Medellin to be some of kind of magic bullet. I was very happy before discovering Medellin, and now I am happier than I have ever been in my entire life. I hope you find what you want, but there is usually no such thing as geographical happiness, short of getting released from prison, jajaja.
