Manila

[QUOTE=WestCoast1;3037220]Yes it is, and it took me years to decipher / suss out. It means she wants enough income for the following 'simple' items: 1) Food on the table. 2) Roof (non-leaking) over their heads (ala rent). 3) Electric and water bill paid on time. 4) The rare but occasional meal out (fast food is fine); or alternately occasionally 'going around', which is slang for going out to the bar for drinks, food, and / or live band (thrilling for many provincial pinay). 5) Once a year going to the annual brgy or city Festival for hot dog on a stick and a beer (to see and be seen, similar to the County fair in America). 6) Going to Mass. ALL OF THIS IS FOR HER ENTIRE FAMILY. Most of us would consider this basic subsistence living.

There are other things she'd like also, but that pretty much describes it. What she wants, deep down, is for a savior who can provide these things WITHOUT FAIL, month after month. Without enough steady money for these things, pinoy must make choices about which of the above they can NOT have this day / week / month. Girls here routinely have what I call 'rolling emergencies', a series of emergencies each month that change regularly, but usually involve one of the items above. She won't have enough money for #1, 2, and 3 above each month. Which one gets cut out this week?

Interestingly, most pinay are happy when the basics are met.[/QUOTE]You nailed it!

Not even smartgirlphilippines or filipina pea described it so simple and eloquently put.

[QUOTE=Transporter;3037258]I originally strolled around the bar side where the bar type casas were before and found nothing. Last night I strolled the casa area where all the small casa's use to be and it looks very promising. At present it is in the pre-casa stage where the girls gather. Like before there were casas the girls would sporadically be on the street, then eventually they would gather at the park before moving on to sitting at a "place", then the sitting place would eventually serve alcohol and food and so on and on until it becomes a take out casa (not to be confused with a stay in casa or dorm). Take out casas emerged from serving the locals and usually established on trucking routes and such. Malate before covid used to have a lot of take out type casas. I spent a many years taking advantage of all the different types of casas in my area, unfortunately I could hot pull the trigger and take one for the team last night. I had every intention of pulling one of the girls to get the feel for where its at, but just couldn't do it. The price (full on foreigner price) was 2 k all night, which isn't bad as I think the local price would only get down too 1. 2-1. 5 (my best guess). If; ll things trend up, I would suspect small casas popping up within the next year, if there is no business, then they will probably migrate.

I'll be around for a couple more days, if someone wants to take one for the team, lmk and I will point you over. My regular is coming by today after school, so I won't be able to pursue it till its end. Will check back on it early next year when I am in the area again.[/QUOTE]Excellent post, that's what I'm into it, 1. 5 K-2 K with no time constrains, is the price I think is reasonable for PH. The occasional 5 K splurge is an out of norm thing, more like fancy dining from time to time, but even when doing that I always keep in mind that the girl gets only 2 K.

Throwback from the Manila archive. Sent one of my NCR regulars out one night to roam about and fetch me a new play toy, and she did deliver.

Genuinely curious on how you guys are searching for the Instagram models, is there a specific place that you're looking for or a specific search query you're submitting into Instagram to find them? Just looking for some guidance.

Hey yall,

So I have a trip to China for work and am looking to take a little party weekend detour to Manila after my business in China having been before. Fell in love with the girls and came at a very expensive price tag the last time as it was all BF girls from club- Maisons and Lips to name a few.

Currently on PL and trying out the online / FL route and I am struggling to get birds lined up for the weekend as reading on here it seems FL are more cost effective but come with their own risks following the daily blogs I see on ISG.

Ideally I don't want to be splurging as much as I did last time (I mean why spend more than you need to right? Strategy I am using as suggested by many on the ISG bible is just being upfront with what I want, so here is my opener "Coming to Manila soon and will be staying at CGG in Makati, will pay 2500 per day with food and drinks". Can anyone advise where I am going wrong? I understand its a numbers game but currently the numbers stack up like so: 50% no response /30% No and the rest with Yes and some demanding higher.

Cheerio.

Nuggy.

Search terms can be the names of the big clubs that they hang out in or the descriptors of their lifestyles: #AquaBeachClub, #PinaGirl, #BeachBabe etc. You can also then disappear down the rabbit warren that is friends of friends. Finding one will make all her friends and people / groups that she subscribers to / by visible.

As you can guess it's a lot of work. The return?? The girls are blistering hot but unbelievably entitled.

I've been asking for a while now and I thought they had disappeared.

Something worth investigating on the next trip.

Thanks. G.

[QUOTE=OldAndUgly;3037410]I'm not sure but I doubt that anybody is chasing dragons (aka fake stuff).[/QUOTE]I think everyone is at different stages in their mongering career.

There was a brief 5 year period back 20-25 years ago, when I was going hard for the white tiger. I was putting in maximum effort, but now could absolutely careless.

After covid they just all disappeared in malate, but I think that has more to do with the changing of the guard. Back 10-20 years ago, malate was full of Japanese ktvs, resto, shops, and such. Now this place is full of Korean everything, even the road sign says Korean town. I don't think the mass Koreans coming here are into casa, they have their own thing and is regulated by the tours they sign up for. However outside Manila it is plentiful, my general rule is if a city is big enough to have an SM or Rob, then they absolutely have casa. I have never failed to find what I need while traveling all over PI in a city that was big enough to have an SM or Rob.

That being said, the casa situation here in malate here is in its early stages, not sure if the demand will stir growth or not, it may just move into a different area where there is more demand. I'll be here for a couple more days, just hit me up if you need the current info.

Just looking for some guidance.[/QUOTE]Mate, I have a lingerie business and we rely on a few trustworthy Insta models to assist us with advertising and promotion in return for product.

The girls can then use our stuff to create content on other platforms, and we can use any photo's they get to promote our range. Basically a handshake deal.

The whole Insta scene has been littered with so-called influencers and opportunistic girls who all copy what all the others do to try and make a buck. Very few succeed due to the huge competition.

Just like every western chick turning her hand to amateur bedroom porn on Only Fans in the hope of making cash.

The Pina's generally don't use Insta.

If you do find one on there, they'll be more of the professional type who won't jump at the chance to blow a foreigner on a chance meet-up.

Or if they lead you along, they'll still try to screw you over at a higher rate with no reward.

Better off playing the field on PL if you ask me.

Just from (vast) experience _ Phil.

[QUOTE=PhilJoy;3037527]Very few succeed due to the huge competition.[/QUOTE]And that online success actually takes some savy and work. For every girl earning $100 k a month, there are thousands earning nothing. The super successful girls run significant businesses supported by skilled staff. Most girls think that that are going to make it big with a poory lit bedroom, an iPhone, click a few pics and watch the money roll in.

Go watch Caleb Hammer's interview of the OF girl who had millions tune in to watch her sleep. I forget her name. She's got a team of advisors and professional staff around her and speaks knowledgeably about where she invests her earnings and allocating her limited time to activities that deliver the greatest return. Most pinas struggle to put together a Live of them doing laundry only replying when a Super Chat comes in.

Maybe there is the opportunity for guys to come in and manage a few girls and do things properly as OF managers but I could see a porinor running foul of the law and being locked up.

Enjoy. G.
