Of course unemployed, childless beauties will be the obvious choice for anybody, but in reality they are kind of rare (yes they do exists), they may not advertise, or may not be up for rental.

My target demographic was usually university graduates or similar, since we were going to spend time together, maybe travel around, and I wanted to have some conversation going on beside giving bedside instructions and commands.

I was doing it mostly using DIA, where you can comb thru the resumes, and pick the right category, yes by using filters you lower the pool of candidates, and have to comb thru the sea of fakes and LBs, but that's how I found out that the ones with higher degrees of education, are more likely to be real, and if you use an interesting intriguing first message they will reply. I was doing this on the side, not as a main mongering source, because it takes time, and you can't rush into blunt conversation, until you slowly retrieve more info to build your case. A few times I got lucky and there was no monetary transaction involved, especially if I was in the neighborhood.

I find the 2 k / day 20 k / month to be slightly above average pay in the PH, extremely affordable for me, and a good incentive for them to find an excuse and take a break from a going nowhere boring job. Most graduates will not find the right good paid employment that they were dreaming of wile studying and end up doing something else to survive while waiting for a brighter future that never comes, and that's exactly the ones that I was searching for.

I didn't do this lately since I got my GF, but I can tell that sometimes it was lifechanging for the girls, giving them the push needed to move forward. One that comes to mind was a sales rep working for a plastic materials co in Manila, but had a degree in economics, after stayed with me for almost a week and got paid 10 k, used the money to move back home to Mindanao, because she was never able to save enough to do it. She was so nice, spontane, and lovely, that I ended up paying for a 3 k online ferry ticket also, because she had to move all her belongings back home and was only feasible by boat on a few days journey. Another one was a teacher from the Visayas that took the opportunity of me flying her to Cebu to apply for a few teaching jobs there, she was stuck on her island with a small salary, and never had the money and a place to stay for a few days in any big city in order to do it. Another teacher from Billiran just wanted to get away from all, and her 2 kids, for a few weeks, but could not afford it, after doing all the legwork, I ended up passing her to a friend of mine that came from his playgrounds in BKK to sample the PH pussy, and 5 years later he's still providing stress relief for her once a year.

'As of July 2024, the unemployment rate in the Philippines was estimated at 4.7 percent, while the under-employment rate was 12.1 percent.'

Still optimistic but suggests at least one-fifth of females are not fully, gainfully employed. Whilst department store salesgirls may appear to be good prospects, the reality is they are exhausted by week's end, yet still have to clean and launder at home.

I don't trust those numbers. I think they give a false narrative. The approximate 17% un / under-employment rate might indicate that the complementary 83% are somehow employed.

However, countries often couch unemployment to mean those who are actively looking for work, but are not currently employed. It does not take into account those not looking for work. If 60% of the adults are not looking for work (housewives, retirees / elderly, students, the disabled, the independently wealthy, etc), then the 17% un/under-employed mentioned above would be considerably smaller taking into account the additional 60%.

What is the unemployment rate in the US right now?

About 4.2% in April 2025. That's a 0.3 percentage point increase from a year before. The unemployment rate is the percentage of people in the labor force who are actively looking for work but not currently employed. It's a common way to measure the health of the job market and economy.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics calculates the unemployment rate through a monthly survey to identify the civilian labor force, meaning people who are employed or actively seeking work. It counts part-time workers as employed. It excludes people who arent actively looking for work, such as retirees or discouraged workers.

* The labor force participation rate in the US. About 62% of those 16 and older are either working, or looking for it. That means about 40% remain not working and not looking. Possibly higher in Phils not working, leaving not 20% unemployed, but half or more un / under-employed, who are quite possibly interested in some type of 'foreigner travel compensation package'. Gentlemen, start your engines!

What is the labor force participation rate in the US?

It was 62.4% in February 2025. The labor force participation rate measures the percent of people ages 16 and older engaged in the labor market, including those who are working or who are unemployed but actively looking for a job.

Interesting. Have taken girls on trips with an agreed set price. However I have never taken one who was working at the time. I tend to shy away from girls who have a regular job.

By extension, the very worst are aircrew -- they might be great lookers and English speakers -- but meeting up to their schedule is a nightmare (and they are sleeping with male crew anyway). Best to avoid 'jaded' females who have regular work-contact with foreigners. As you say, it is wise to latch on to the unemployed, whilst throwing travel, money and romance in to the mix.

Paying them for the time missed from work is a must, and should not be regarded as pay for pussy.

Interesting. Have taken girls on trips (or flown them to me and then traveled around with them) with an agreed set price (I usually pro-rate the pay over time; example I give her 1/3 of the total after 1/3 of the days; or alternately I give the weekly amount weekly). However I have never taken one who was working at the time. It tend to shy away from girls who have a regular job, for the simple reason that it prevents me from poon access on my schedule, and forces me to conform to hers. I typically am interested in girls who are wildly free to do whatever they want / need, whenever needed.

I did this over the years so many times that I can't even remember, I hired girls as travel companions for 2 k / day or 20 k / month depending of the length of the engagement. They may make only 10 or 15 k a month on their jobs, and spend most of that just on living expenses, but they all send a little bit home to the family, to keep it afloat. Paying them for the time missed from work is a must, and should not be regarded as pay for pussy.

I did not want to pry into my friend's actual expenditure but, amidst occasional, exorbitant, financial requests, he got a pretty-good deal overall by dipping into his wallet a couple of times a week, to keep her keen. Wisely, he made no lump-sum payment but sent her home safely from Cebu to GenSan, and back to selling her balut.

Charles Dickens might have written 'Great Expectations' for such relationship hopefuls. Given our creaky bodies, once past the age of 70, a nurse (or student nurse) would make a lot of sense, were we embracing both a carer and a general relationship. An uneducated 'casual' is going to be of limited use in an emergency, but does also highlight the importance of medical insurance and support in a country where nothing is free or can be assumed. Now back in a temperate climate, my friend reports a relapse into his joint aches and pains; tropical heat is very soothing!

Many guys don't realise the benefits to the girls of long term agreements, even at dramatically reduced day rates.

Could you imaging Trevor's friend's girl's eyes light up when she was handed P32,000 at the end of two months? Definitely the most cash she had seen ever. To these girls, that's a life changing sum. Enough to buy a house etc.

Cheers. G.

I did this over the years so many times that I can't even remember, I hired girls as travel companions for 2 k / day or 20 k / month depending of the length of the engagement. We talked about this here before, how the girls are part of a machinery that needs all the wheels to spin in order to function. They may make only 10 or 15 k a month on their jobs, and spend most of that just on living expenses, but they all send a little bit home to the family, to keep it afloat. If they go with you, than they don't make money anymore, but they still have to do their part for the family's well being. Paying them for the time missed from work is a must, and should not be regarded as pay for pussy.

[Goferring]

This is very do-able, especially with an established allowance.

Just an idea of what is possible via online dating, with relatively-little paid: around P4,000 a week, over 2 months (approx. min. salary).

Still a touch of newbie one-itis -- but he is serious about retiring in the Philippines.

This is very do-able, especially with an established allowance. For province girls that I didn't know and were willing to travel with me, p2500-3000 was usually fine. P4000 is above the minimum salary in the province for a week, p2500 is a more typical minimum salary (location depending). Some links below for that. Many employers here pay below the minimum (although some also provide a daily fare amount, of, say, p40-60).

That said, p4000 is probably a better pay range than the minimum. And compare the p4000/ week for so many shots on goal, as compared to a barfine or NCR freelancer. Also consider the un-rushed situation of waking up to your spinner every morning, available and happy to tend to your fav want and need. She is also translating, touring you, finding you a barbershop or laundry shop, etc. Touche to your friend, and good report sir Trevor.

How much is minimum wage in Metro Manila 2025?

The minimum wage rate in Manila for 2022 was Php 570 per day for the non-agriculture sector and Php 533 per day for the agriculture sector. Following Wage Order No. NCR-24, issued on June 26, 2023, there was an increase of Php 40 (2), bringing the minimum wage in 2025 to Php 610 per day for the non-agriculture sector and Php 573 for the agriculture sector.

Is this enough? Not really.

At ₱610 per day, you will earn ₱13,420 if you work for 22 days a month. Now, a decent apartment costs ₱8,000 in Manila. As you can see, this already eats up big part of your income.

Add to that the cost of education, gasoline, food, and then you have nothing left. If you work in the BPO industry, you will find companies that pay as much as ₱25,000 even if you are just new. The kind of salary you earn, of course, depends on your skills and the clients that you serve.

And.

Provincial rate in the Philippines 2025
For the minimum wage Philippines in the province, it is a different discussion altogether.

The minimum provincial rate in the Philippines varies because there are different economic conditions depending on the location in the country.

For example, according to the 2025 Philippines DOLE wages table, the salary range in the minimum wage for the province of Pangasinan ranges from Php 454 to Php 500.
There are many regions in the Philippines, and you will have to consult the table from the Department of Labor and Employment to see the actual ranges.

Here are the minimum wage rates of some provinces in the Philippines.

✔ Minimum wage in Bukidnon is Php 411 Php 438
✔ Minimum wage in Surigao del Sur is Php 385
✔ Minimum wage in Davao Oriental is Php 438 Php 443
✔ Minimum wage in Quezon City is Php 610 Php 573
✔ Minimum wage in Pampanga is Php 454 Php 500

Just an idea of what is possible via online dating, with relatively-little paid: around P4,000 a week, over 2 months (approx. min. salary). Plain but pleasant face; good, slender figure, fair English, no baby; had Aussie BF before. Just ferrying around and staying in cheap AirBnBs was a novelty for her.

Friend is a former driving instructor and even gave her lessons on Siquijor. He is overweight but easy-going and knows how to please. His first foray into SE Asian dating and he had a great time! Lucky encounter: she was clearly seeking a LTR in return for low-level maintenance.

Too small for me but some guys like their ladies that petite. However, it appears to be a handicap to LTRs with local men. He is planning to return to her later this year but I encouraged him to try other online hopefuls for comparison. Still a touch of newbie one-itis -- but he is serious about retiring in the Philippines.

A good report.

Yet another example of what is possible away from the regular bar scene, especially if the guy has time on his hands.

No disrespect to the girl but I'd caution your friend that it can be dangerous trying to chase the dragon and relive fun times. Often they are impossible to repeat.

She was likely hoping to a long term commitment at the end of the two months.

Subsequent visits typically gone of two ways: either she realises that a long term relationship isn't happening so she bails or; sick buffaloes slowly creep in and costs climb to what we normally hear of.

Good luck to your friend. Any follow up information on his subsequent visits would be good.

Enjoy. G.

I'm planning to go and do some tourist bucket list items in Laoag. Anyone have recent experience in this north city?

I'm thinking 3 days, 2 nights with direct flights from MNL. I'm tossing up whether to find talent in town or just take a girl from Manila.

Recent experiences appreciated.

Laoag is awesome, send me a dm.

[ShaggerAu]

Hello all,

I could not find any information about Ilocos Sur scene. Any idea or clue or suggestion where to start digging?

The intention for the second Fuck Fest was to get out of town, away from prying eyes, from Friday after work to Sunday night and basically have as many sessions as possible.

For anyone following closely, I got my days mixed up. The second Fuck Fest was actually a Monday holiday three-day weekend. Any references to Sunday were actually Monday and she went back to work Tuesday morning.

Sorry, the OCD was kicking in and I had to correct the original post. 😁.

The intention for the second Fuck Fest was to get out of town, away from prying eyes, from Friday after work to Sunday night and basically have as many sessions as possible. Corporate Girl is typically much more relaxed when removed from the risk of being seen and this always translates into much more spirited performance.

The evening bus to CDO was uneventful and the studios at the Centrio Towers are big enough to be comfortable and a great location surrounded by three shopping malls of all standards. If staying there, check the interior photos closely as the quality of furnishings and fitout can vary between different rooms.

She definitely didn't disappoint. The only breaks were to eat or shower. She is still more familiar with, and prefers, wildly passionate but short sessions but I'm starting to convince her if the joys of longer stints. I had to laugh when she woke up Sunday morning and is pissed. Proper pissed. What's wrong? It appears that giving her a mouthful of B12 the previous night, passing out, and not being able to back it up with an immediate second session to rearrange her internal organs wasn't appreciated. She's a real evening girl and morning sessions just aren't the same for her.

As I mentioned costs have inched up but are still more than fair. Her bus fare was P1000 return, meals were typical Grab Eats or mall food at about P300 per person. We did have one dinner at a nice restaurant that was P900 per person. Accommodation was about P2000 per night but I would have paid that even if she wasn't there. No cash changed hands but shopping for a set of jeans and two tops was P3300. Just for clarity, that was for 24/7 leaving Friday night until her going back to work Monday morning.

Where exactly are you headed? There is a lot a lot of play norte.

I am going to Cabugao next to Vigan.
