Posts: 3125My budget got tight
Trying to get the best deal for rooms on my trip. I have time sheduled at Sosua suite but I was thinking New Garden could be an option. I have two wingmen with me. New garden includes breakfast. My budget is very tight this trip. Every thing helps.

IMO this is another good reason not to overpay. Overpaying and throwing your money around in general increases your chances of being a target of a scam. Of course in theory if you go to Passions or CMP, you are overpaying, but you get some security in return.

Posts: 2Happy bar
Arrived in Sosua today to find Happy Bar closed. What happened? The bar has been open since at least 2006 with largely the same personnel. I am curious to know what caused it to close.

The gist of my message is that it matters how you carry yourself and trouble can often times be avoided by not displaying weakness or gullibility.
Women are reactionary creatures so for a female to try something fishy it's probably because she (or her pimp) saw an opportunity in your behavior.
Hell, I've taken responsibility for behaving like a chump in my past trip LOL

A lot of these situations occur because of poor judgement.
Women will happily take advantage of any weakness shown so be decisive and clear about the price, what you want and what's expected of her.
Be alert, use common sense and stay away from any shady or unruly chicas.
Personally I only go TLN if I have a good rapport with the chica or I'm taking her out from Passions

I have never had a major problem. If you vet your girls a little you should have no issues. I think there is to much parnoia over scams / Guys are scared of there shadows. Follow a few rule and you will have a great time. For 3500 I can have 3 girls or very close. If you can make the girl relaxed you will get a good performance. Learn a little Spanish and few few dance steps and she is your date note your puta for 2 hours. It works for me, I make them feel like they can come back and it will be fun to return. If you want a stick run they will treat that way. You bust your nut they put panties on. I have an after sex conversation and laugh a bit. Having a good relationship can lead to some benefits later. An unexpected real 3 some or just some to chatting later. It is what you make it. I am having fun and I like the girls I sleep with to enjoy the experience. Smoke ,drinks and toys are all on the table

keep in mind, this is a template and does not just apply to accusations of abuse, but includes fake car accidents and other such methods of being able to arrest and detain a gringo. it begins wth an "incident", moves to an attorney, the attorney determines the value of the scheme and whether they will recover enough money to pay for the national police to go and arrest them, they then draw up paperwork (enough to convince the fiscal that an arrest is necessary) , and then they grab the gringo "ambush" style. he then is run through a battery of procedures, told he's in big trouble, placed in a jail with a mix of crazy, violent, naked, overdosed criminals in a cell that were it a kennel in a civilized world would be considered animal abuse because of the conditions. the smell and the heat alone causes one to consder whether he will leave alive. then, if the "officers" don't confirep001e everything valuable, the "inmates" will, and daring to resist them would certainly result in exaserbating the situation. at the point when you realize you're in jail for an indeterminate amount of hours, days, weeks and even months, you manage to speak to an attorney. that is when they determine just what your threshold is and your ablity for a payoff. there are usually "hearings" where they will ask you more about your job, how you pay for your trips, how much money you have, and how frightened you look, than whether you are guilty or not. guilt in these situations does not matter, their only concern is how much money they can extract from you.
on the other hand, if you have really committed a crime, then good luck.
advice: never become financially important to any of these prostitutes. never hand over your passport for any reason. i know many disagree, but hiring a driver may cost more up front, but the down side of a car rental scam can be exponentially more expensive and happens more than you think. another bit of advice is don't buy real estate in the d. r, i've seen this scam on 2 occasions where men were involved with women and before it was over they had to leave everything they owned and get the hell out of the country.
now, i'm sure i'll be slammed, but the evidence is overwhelming that these things occur regularly. i also don't deny that there are many expats that defy these situations, however what a lot of them won't tell you is that they too have paid the extortion money for these scams and just seal their lips to continue living amongst these thugs.

The Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS) was semi-replaced in 1984 by the Federal Employees Retirement System. I say 'semi-replaced' because those employees who were already working for CS were given an opportunity to choose between the old program and the new one; anyone hired after the FERS was instated, was put into the new system. FERS was a combination of SS and a 'Thrift Savings Plan' (TSP) to which you'd contribute a certain percentage of your salary; CSRS holdouts could put money into the TSP as well, and many of my same-age colleagues did so.
I'm under the CSRS, and my pension is a percentage of my "high-three" salary (the average of the highest-earning three years of my career). Plus annual cost-of-living adjustments (COLAs) , same as Social Security. I'm not rich, not for the USA, but I'm comfortable.

Boy I'll probably get blasted for this one! However. It seems to me that one way to avoid being a victim of these scams is to pay a little more and get girls from the club. Sosua has Passions and CMP. After 10 at Passions you can get a girl for the night for 3500rd, thats about $87. Expensive by Dr standards, but not bad for a tourist. Everytime I hear about someone getting in trouble it involves a freelance puta. Not a club girl or a non pro. Just my 2 cents.

Posts: 6Watch out for this Local DR Guy- Joey. He will become your friend and Fuck you Over
I have been in Sousa for the past five weeks, leaving today. Had a great time, but, got screwed by a Local Dominican, he calls himself Joey.
He will be your friend, promise you the world, and what I learned- Lie, Cheat Steal. Stay away from him. He lives in Purta Plata, and comes to Sousa to look for those white guys traveling alone. He stole money from me, and I will get even. This trip, next trip or the trip after.
