[QUOTE=Safado69;1379037]I am hearing from a GDP friend that an American was shot and killed inside. The source is "reliable" anybody on the ground can confirm this? They will shut it down for sure.[/QUOTE]I was there every night this weekend except Sunday and did not hear or see anything like this. Surely this would've made the news.
[QUOTE=Exec Talent;1379068]Journalism is in such a state of decline. That report was all over the board. Most of it was just recycled from previous foreign media reports. It would be nice to see a solid detailed report on how Rio is preparing (and is not prepared) for the Olympics. I think someone needs to shine a serious light on how bady tourism is managed at major attractions like the Christ Statue. That would be a story worth reading.[/QUOTE]I hate to bring up the name of the beloved departed, but Club Help was the be tourism operation in all of Brasil. The kept it simple and handled the biggest tourism attraction in all of Rio. I can't remember them having any problems that they couldn't fix right of way. But the assholes planning that fucking Museum of Sound are the same ones fucking up tourist attractions and events in Brasil.
The fucking Empire State building was completed in less time than the damn Museum of Sound. Maracana stadium and the one in Salvador will not open in time for the domestic tournaments nor Confederation Cup. Idiots!

I have stay in touch with him after help and he said his business is still down around 40, 0 percent. He said you cannot believe how much that one club has had an impact on Rio. But, everyone who went to help knows how crowded that beach was all the time. I know things have to change I guess for the better, but to bad for all the people that have had there income hurt by the closing of help.
There were no shots fired, and nobody was killed. Just a foiled robbery attempt. It was an American who brought down the robber. I had grilled Salmon for lunch there today, Monday. It was wonderful. Everything seems normal. I just wish they had better looking talent during the day.

From taxis, apartment rentals, beauty salons, women's apparel, cellphone and internet, restaurants and etc. Those girls who came to Rio to work from all over Brasil sent money home. Even the little kids begging for money and food kept stomachs full, clothes on backs and shoes on feet. Brasil is a country of class warfare, the "haves versus the have nots." The girls who worked Help gave hope to the have nots, who are mothers raising children. Brasil is a broke society; broke economically and broke by infrastructure. THose buildings downtown Rio will soon come down like one already did. South America is what it is, military junta left-overs. All we got to do is wait out the World Cup and Olympics and everything will correct itself in our favor. Brasil will not be able to function with their rising inflation. THe girls will be like I heard it was before Help. Pussy will be exchanged for a slice of bread.

I agree like in the USA they would send money home to their poor families. I cannot tell you how many times a girl I had sex would buy me a beer or dinner. I also like the GFE and sometimes the drama because you would try to spend time with girl for a day or two and another girl wanted to spend the day with you. You never heard it is going to cost you x dollars for me to spend the day with you. They just wanted to have fun with you. Transaction sex is great but all day GFE is so much better.

[QUOTE=ChrisDrug;1379475]Buddy I own 10 apts + 2 shops in a mall = 12 properties and let me assure you that a price of real estate property and pussy will always incline. One Italian lady I know who own 14 apts in Rio is telling me to get buy whatever apt I can get in Rio because the prices will go sky high within a year or two. I'm giving a serious thought while discussing with attorneys in US with Brasil associates, in order to make a legit transaction. However, I'm schedule to buy 2-3 apts in London in 3 months.[/QUOTE]Maybe you never noticed but this thread has nothing to do with apartment ownership, property ownership, or any other real estate ownership. If this were such a thread I'd be talking about the 150 condos I own and rent out in Miami, the 85 I own in NYC, the 50 I own in Dallas and the 25 I own in Los Angeles, all with a minimum rent of $2, 100. 00 US.
Buddy, if you were smart you wouldn't own property anywhere in Brazil because they are overprice, many in Lagoa, Gavea, Leblon and other areas of Rio (95%) have questionable title ownership close to that of Lagos, Nigeria. Enough I'm going to talk about Brasilian real estate and that countries corrupt real estate market. And if your personality is reflective of what you type, I hope they rip you off!

Anyone wants to share any updates om Tijuca?
It seems like the few recent Rio reports are mostly on Balcony and the termas.
I know the Rio strip clubs are probably a rip-off, but I like the option of chilling out with a drink while watching women strip. I don't see hardly any discussion on them. Are they so bad that they are not worth discussing? There must be at least 1 decent strip club in Rio. If someone can recommend one, please let me know. Thanks.

as you first go in, your eyes will be unacustomes to the darkness. a number of persons will walk disconcertingly near, or hover with intent, as you try to tell by smell alone whether they are male or female. the best place to go on enetering is probably the toilets, situated at the right hand side as you face the stage. this allows your eyes to acustom themselves at a leisurely pace to things like the scratchy low-level film being projected inbetween shows and the barrage of persons of dubious gender in the toilet. don't be alarmed if a large black woman has squeezed into a cubicle with some difficulty. she is not in need of your assistance as she graefully anbd noisily voids her bowels while peering at you invitingly. your hesitation is your fortuante undoing as soon a young slave will have volunteered to sit on th elady's ahem. manhood. (there are some women there as well, but they don't fart loudly.)
you will find people move seats quite often and people dressed in women's clothing wil patrol the aisles and ask if you want to do something. i'm not sure what the 'something' is, but quite possibly a quick round of[i] 'guess the gender'[/i] in one of the cramped bathroom cubicles, or a game of [i]'i don't care i'm desperate just suck me off please, it's dark'[/i] which wll probably be acomplished in the back rows. people in some rows will seem less interested in the film than who is sittoing three seats along. other people seem to roam aimlessly, never quite finding the 'right seat'.
when the strippers come on, there is a subtle riot towards the front seats, as these are the best. at this point the lights go up and everyone you can see is fiercely heterosexual. some of the strippers are quite nice, some ok, some downright ugly.
the details you'll have gleaned from the above refer primarily to the proudly disgusting building on r. carioca, conveniently situated near to the black-and-white non-nonsense german restaurant, and the 10r-a-minute stairs at the end of the block. thus you have everything you need to sustain life within less than a hundred yards.
should your palate prefer a little more, or you were silly enough to pay immediately after the show instead of before (times are usually posted in the foyer outside) , there is another one a bit further up behind cinelandia cinema. cinelandia is of course, a 'proper'cinema, and you won't want to be seen coming out of one and into the other.

O Dia reporting that the monthly rents in Complexo do Alemão, a favela, have doubled since the installation of the UPP. 417 families have 15 days to vacate the premises. The rents were between R$100 and R$250 before, now they're from R$300 up to R$1000. The owners are also wanting a 3 months deposit. WOW! I wonder what the rent will be like, during the World Cup and Olympics? Maybe only foreign tourists will be able to afford. Once the Olympics end, I see the bubble bursting.

thanks for the warning christopherd. i've been to a strip club in belo horizonte that was really good. plenty of light and definitely 100% women. from sao paulo reports, there seem to be a lot of good ones there. i'm actualy second guesising visiting rio now. i suppose if something happens to balcony, mongers in rio are stuck going to street girls, termas, and casas. in my mind, that would knock rio down from top 5 in the world to barely top 50. since i've never been to rio, this comment might be way off track. has anyone had a positive experience at a rio strip club? thanks, kdog.
