Stupid Shit in the Philippines

[Goferring]

It is the cheating guys that spoil it for everybody else.

I met a girl on WeChat who wanted all sorts of payment up front.

She explained how a foreigner had promised her x amount plus transport plus lunch for a Sogo hook up, but after the deed and 2 hours he gave her half only with no transport or food because "he didn't enjoy his time with her".

No wonder these inexperienced girls who get burned then get "gun-shy" and want to ensure a pay-out. As with everything, assholes spoil it for everyone else.

Valid point. I met a girl in gensan who walked in the door and wouldn't move from standing in the corner until she was paid in full. Same story of her and her friends being ripped off. They were pinoys but same same.

It's even coined an online term now: cash down before panties down.

The sort of obstacles I'm facing from simps in the internet. This one is from Manila but it's also prevalent in the provinces.

I don't know about the korean places where seems to be a rush at diner time, but I'm not into cooking my own food and paying the restaurant to let me do it.

I say the same thing here in Thailand. What kind of bullshit is that? I am going out to eat, but I am going to do the cooking. Why wouldn't you just stay home and cook? There is some bullshit born every minute.

I live on less than $2 k USD per month there in the province. Rent is 3 k pesos, electric is 1-4 k pesos, depending on how much we use aircon, water is about 800 pesos, wifi is 1. 5 k pesos for wired broadband. I don't have a car there and just use trikes or jeepneys. I love to cook, and my food is better than restaurant food, anyway. Budget is about $1200 per month, and that's going out to Macdo or Jollibee several times with my wife and all our kids.

Yes very doable for a settled guy, family oriented, or if you have no choice. But in my case when I'm in AC I spend up to $5 K / mo and maybe $3 K / mo when in the province.

I do cook sometimes, when I get tired of the restaurant food, but I don't think I end up cheaper, because I'm buying in western stores where a freaking California bell pepper costs $3!, one piece. Fruits, carrots, onion, and other basic stuff I do buy it in the market, but some of it is still more expensive than US, which I don't understand because PH is mainly an agrarian country. Only rice is cheaper.

In AC rent is $600 and up for a decent place, trikes $2-300, utilities $200, laundry $40, groceries $3-500, restaurant food $1000 and up, cappuccinos $250, bar drinks $500 and up, and other stuff that doesn't come to mind. On top of that comes the money spent for pussy, and that's where it gets tricky, and expensive. When I'm in province it's a little cheaper, but not a lot because I'm usually renting beachfront, but the pussy is for free.

My other hobby beside young, beautiful pussy is traveling, and I do it on regular bases instead of extending my visa, just take a cheap flight somewhere in SEA, and that's a whole different expense.

I saw this video a while back, and my first impression was that the guy is not right in the head, or at least very naive.

All this vlogging bullshit confuses people that never lived in the PH, not this guy in particular, but the general talk about expenses, especially the parts about cheap living. I discovered that only 2 things are cheaper in PH: rent, and pussy, everything else is pricier, and of lower quality. If you want to buy decent things, including food, you have to go to SR which is Sams's Club, or other western outlets, and it will cost the same as in the US or higher. The same goes on for restaurants, a low quality T-bone, same as Outback Steakhouse, is $30 at Kokomos, or it used to be before they changed the menus and hiked the prices, Swiss Chalet is the same. I don't know about the korean places where seems to be a rush at diner time, but I'm not into cooking my own food and paying the restaurant to let me do it. I don't think that I had a month so far when I spent only $2 K so far, even when living in the province I was exceding that by far. Yes you can do it on $2 K or less, but that will be surviving, not living.

Here is a Cebu based Yank, telling us he has 8 girl friends in the Philippines and they ate all happy he is a butterfly. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o3mMF_kCW1I This video and others that followed it got huge traction, with many saying he was the man for living it large on his $2000 pcm social security cheque.

Several follow up posts were made of him repeatng how he was living it large and this one had him with his live in girl firend he is scamming https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=20UhN4-ab5g&t=2030s.

I am with the consensus that the Pinay should get as far away as she can from this leeching loser.

Here is the channel, https://www.youtube.com/@AForeignerA...estions/videos which interviews foreigners in the Philippines, many of whom have lost their nest eggs. Though most of this wil not be new to folk posting here, there is a cautionary tale for us all here that cannot be repeated often enough.

Because they eat lots of foods fried in toxic vegetable oils: causing inflammation and creating transfats, aldehydes & acrylamides. Result: cellular death and premature aging. Even frying in saturated coconut oil would be an improvement.

Largely a post world-war-2 development: spurred on by the Canola (rapeseed oil) industry, for depopulation purposes, to an ignorant public who just want 'cheap and convenient'. Add in toxic vaccines, alcohol, smoking ... and energy-sapping babies ... they really don't stand a chance.

Dafuq did I just read?

I was nodding my head right up until "toxic vaccines. " What do you mean?

[Trevor2522]

Filipinas must be the worst aging ladies in Asia.

So basically province girls are smarter than 70 million American MAGA voters. Trumpers vote for Trump and then have to pay thousands extra for their walmart trips. And still sing his praises.

Oh yeah and Biden was much much better. He printed 8 trillion dollars out of thin air and let in 12 to 15 million illegal's in with no job skills. Glad my days here are numbered and I can.

Leave this shithole.

In the various cities that I've come to, I've spent time with many of the local foreign residents and expats. One thing that has begun to dawn on me is that 95% of their wives are horrendous, typically grossly over weight and long gone facial beauty.

Using my small sample size, Filippinas must be the worst aging ladies in Asia. Sure they can look great in their 20's and 30's. But I've only seen a couple who have retained their looks beyond this. Contrast that with numerous friends who have Indonesian, Malay and Thai wives that are still attractive in their 40's, 50's and beyond.

Add in that most have brought a bastard child into the marriage and it's hard to argue against remaining single with short time friends.

2) LDR. "While you are sending money, some other guy is rearranging her guts EVERY NIGHT"!

Ain't nothin' wrong with OPP. I've been a side dick for decades.

ID show some compassion and let the guys know but you just can't fix stupid. Half of them wouldn't believe it anyway.

G.

PS. Not the Phils but some more Stupid Shit about LDRs and OPPs

Para 1:. I've often explained the Golden Rules to girls: I've got the gold so I'm making the rules. There is no need to insult them but many guys seem to just lay down then become surprised when they are treated like a door mat.

Para 2:. Suggest you have a read of the Seeking Arrangement forum to see guys blowing '00's or 000's of dollars for the privilege of being in girls' presence. I can certainly appreciate a girl's beauty but I definitely don't put them in a pedestal.

Para 3:. Depends what you want to pay for. I'm always in town for a while so time is on my side. I don't need to pay a premium for access at a given time or before I go back home. It suits me to be a sidedick: let other guys buy them phones, silver service dinners and 5 star holidays; when Daddy has gone home or the rent is due then she can give me a call to come over on my terms. It may take a little time but the day will come.

Cheers. G.
