300-400 dollars a day budget is definitely reasonable.
[QUOTE=Rahsta;1660098]That $6000 is too high. I spent $800 on my flight. Spent 3 days in Manaus and 11 days in Rio. Never spent more than $950 on ticket from jfk to gig. Our two bedroom apartment in Copacabana one 150 feet from the beach was $1532 for 11 days, that $70 a day for my half. We go hard the first 3 or 4 days, then slow down gor 1 day then pick back up. We do all the spots level on termas to VM. I spent about $2000 US. The dollar is real strong also.[/QUOTE]Plane Ticket - Yes, you can definitely get a ticket for 800 dollars, if you are willing to fly Mon -Wed. But I have serious time constraints at my company so I can only fly on the weekend. The average price of a ticket from JFK to GIG is about $1,300 dollars. I rounded it down to 1 k to make the math easier. (I just double checked for the end of March and I haven found anything under 1300 bucks).
Apartment - You got a 2 bedroom beach front spot for only 150 a night? That is an incredible price! I haven't found any one bedrooms for less than 100 bucks a night and that is no where near beach front, more like 3 blocks in. It was normally $125 a night, he gave me a deal of 100 bucks because I was staying for 10 days. (This was during the slow season, I can only imagine how much he will want in March).
So back to my budget, before I even get off the plane I am out 2 K (Air faire and apartment).
Entertainment:
Girls - 1 hour at a major terma (4 x4, MC) will run you over 100 dollars. I haven't started going to the prives yet, but I will in March.
Most Internet chicas wants 250 R to 300 R for a two hour romp.
Balcony garotas want 200 R to 300 R for either one hour or all night.
So that averages out to about 200-300 dollars a day on GDPs if you do 2 fucks a day.
I like to go clubbing while I am in Rio. I can easily drop $100-150 night on taxis, entrance fees and drinks.
I haven't even added in the cost of food or the daily gym fees.
I know I can cut down on the cost for GDPs by 50%. On my March trip I plan on hitting a number of prives and casas instead of the major termas.
