General Info

[QUOTE=TheCane;2259069]Gents,
In fact, I've read many FFs for many months now and believe that I am well-prepared for the journey overall, but I have not found consistent and satisfactory information regarding the use of debit cards and ATM machines in The PI.[/QUOTE]Depends which bank, which card and which country the bank card is from. I and others have an HSBC account and can withdraw more then PHP 10,000 a day easily. So I would ask your bank as if I take my HSBC ATM to a local bank ATM (eg BPI) I need to withdraw PHP30000 in lots of either 5 or 10 so then I pay fees many times over.

Check the above and call your bank. If you don't have HSBC maybe open one for the trip if you need lots of cash in a day. Some have done this also.

Anybody here use and can recommend Seeking Arrangements (SA) as a dating site yeilding good results? The website cost of $90 per month is too high for crap shoot results without recommendations from ISG. I am concened that the girls there will be looking for a second or third date before panties hit the floor, Also, there is of course a fee to the girls for their time as well, what is standard?. Lots of attractive babes there but I have not signed on with the site so do not know first hand because it is expensive signup. Another site, less well known, is Whats Your Price (WYP). I pulled one from WYP for a 500 php offer that she accepted. It was her first date from there and mine too so neither one of us knew what the deal was beyond the 500 so we just had our fun and I gave her another 1000 which she seemed just barely OK with and she left. Does anyone here ever use or know what the girls expectations are on the WYP site? I would use again if I knew more in case I pull a seasoned pro who will try to convince me of what the norm is and she is all BS.

I mostly use it to meet girls in the vicinity of my home in the US. I have met several girls using it in Manila, and am still in touch with one of them. In general, the girls ask too much for what they offer. Remember, the site is mainly for rich businessmen who have more money than time, and the girls know that. After a meet-and-greet, I had two girls tell me that she'd go back to my room for 10-12 K. They spoke English well but weren't 'all that'. There were prettier, cheaper girls available in Burgos Street, which is where I went afterwards. IN GENERAL, the girls on SA speak better English and may be a bit more educated and worldly, but you will definitely pay for those attributes. Also, an arrangement can be anything you want it to be, but most of these girls (especially the prettier ones) are looking for monthly allowances, even rent-free condos. Some will be offended if you offered a price for a night (I am not a prostitute! LOL). In my opinion, sign up if you don't mind paying a lot more money for a marginally better class of girl. However, there are others here who use it that may offer different perspectives.

She would not take any money but I did replace her phone that got lost. We did some travel as well that I paid for but no allowance.

Her family (so she said) wanted her to go home. I paid her ticket back to her island but she had traveled to Manila on her own dime.

Other girls from there were better than average quality and more money, they mostly wanted long term arrangements vs one night's fun.

[QUOTE=Mogwai;2259393]It's stated in their policy that they don't allow multiple accounts. They only want 'real' people and I think it's easy to understand why. Personally I try to keep my mongering activities as far away as possible from FB.[/QUOTE]I find it advisable not to give FB any phone numbers in your profile, despite their claims it improves your "security".

I have a couple of contacts to whom I am anonymous and use a separate phone number, but somehow they have my regular phone number (probably from using a dual SIM phone and calling them from the wrong number). FB found that number in the girls' contact lists and tried to match us up as friends.

One regular searched thru FB, found me (my profile has my picture), and asked to "friend" me. You can search via names. I don't recall giving that girl my last name. Maybe she saw it on a bill I had laying around.

I think if I lived in Manila, I would have more options on SA. I'd love to have several ongoing arrangements at once, with the girls at my beck and call on "retainer". Who am I in the mood for tonight?

[QUOTE=KeenEyeJoe1;2259400]During our time at the bar at least 10 girls checked in with her. All were under the age of 25 and most were pretty darned cute. I asked what the going rate was for short-time, and she replied it was normally 500 pesos for Pinoys but 1,500 for foreigners. I asked why our rate was so much higher she said it was because about half the foreigners pay that amount without question, while the other half bargains down to 1,000 pesos. I asked how many foreigners pay 500 and she said none ever try to negotiate it down to that level.[/QUOTE]Most folk think these LBFMs are different than any other commodity on offer and they forget they are tourists even when they are in tourist areas like Pampanga and Manila. The women are merely jacking up the prices to what they can get away with. I've paid 200 PHP for sex in Davao BTW.

1. They didn't spend enough time with their children.

2. They didn't get enough pussy in their lifetime.

Don't worry about how much you paid or whether some guy spent 1,000,000 PHP on a 50-year MILF. Your dick only has a limited shelf life before it shrivels up and dies. Just use it while you can. You can always earn money, but you can't buy more time for your dick (okay Dr V can prolong it a bit, but your libido can't be fixed).

As he got older, his singing accommodated his age by not hitting high notes etc. Quality over quantity. You're saying we should drink more Red Bull, eat more Jollibees, bed more farmers' daughters. I say no. Go for quality, not quantity in food, drink and women. Many, if not most of the reports would turn me off. A meat market is fine but we don't want to see the flies laying their eggs on tomorrow's dinners.

As we get older, we have to grow out of stuff as it no longer turns us on. I'm not into banging LBFMs like I'm a tuk tuk driver or a marine who's been at sea for 6 months. Can't do it and not too interested in doing it either.

I was looking at flights back to the Philippines to factor a holiday in between two other holidays I am taking. But I've decided to pass and will chill out at home instead.

The Philippines is not off the menus totally. Maybe in 2020 or late 2019. It is a long way to go for bad food and bad drink. Pedrito needs attention of course but that is cost / benefit. I must work out most bang for my buck and as I've had the whole menu at this stage, who knows?

Spain. And Barcelona is Spanish. Leads the way. There is nothing different here from supermarkets. LBFMs are on the way out and, with good programming, the sex dolls have more life to them. The sex dolls can even talk and hold as good a conversation as the farmers' daughters. The hookers in Spain are not happy campers. They are Luddites.

I imagine the Koreans would be big into all this.

OK so this maybe a stupid question But I am trying to learn about the rules there.

So Stocks where good to me this last year and I been doing some investing in other countries. I have already done some in Colombia, and Dominican Republic since I go there a lot. So now I am looking towards the Phils. I have already talked to a family member of my ex-wife there. And going to start a restaurant in a small city, and the price is not bad at all. But now I want to do more. I want to do some thing like a bar, or a club in a big spot. Does anybody have any info on this.

For the first time ever in my mongering life, I am thinking about taking a local girl with me to a beach side holiday resort in the Philippines. This girl works for a Makati based massage company and has her own profile on WeChat and TanTan as well. The procedure is that you make contact with the company or the girl directly and she comes to your hotel room for a massage at 500 PHP / hour. She is paid commission for the basic massage. Any money she makes on up-selling eg. hand job, blow job, B2 B or full service goes directly to her.

The question I have is what sort of EWR payment would I need to make to her boss so that she can skip work for a few days? Also, what would be an appropriate daily tip for her? I would only pop once a day. I would cover all travel expenses.

I haven't raised this with her yet as I don't want her to get her expectations up in the event I decide to travel on my own.
