Latinamerica cupid update
Ok so after one week of LatinamericCupid, my inbox is filled. I would say 30-40% look like fake profiles and I got a few from Brazil that gave me their email and obvious fake after I gave them my burner email. Lot of fake profiles from Brazil. Maybe 25% Colombian messages I get are the homely a bit overweight type, but cute. They seem to be looking for the lottery out of Colombia to the US and really want an American husband. They are sweet but seem very desperate. Ok, to chat with but not what I'm looking for when I visit. I found a few cute 40 ish type girls that seem real and are hot. The chats are brief and cutesy. The other thing I am seeing are a ton of Dominican women sending me messages; some AA. I really don't have any desire at this point to visit DR but maybe in the future. The site is a bit overwhelming w / so many women emailing and having to filter through fake profiles. The girls that really want to chat again are the homely type. Nice to chat with but I can only imagine the cling-on situation if I visited. The site takes some time investment but it is fun.
X change rate, doing very well for us
I don't remember exactly what the XE was when I first went to Colombia but I think it was around 1500/1600 to USD. At that time I was mongering mostly with prepagos and paying something like 200,000 more or less for top talent in Tourist Traps like Lylos etc and was around $125 at the old XE.
Now even if a girl wants 300,00 it's around $66 usd. At the current XE no matter how you shake it, it's good for us.
Wonder what's in store for the dollar? Everything I read is a negative outlook for the dollar and if that will impact the COP / USD situation. I may be living in Colombia next year so trying to decide on a future budget for Colombia is dicy at best. I'd be interested in what any of our Wharton grad. Members have to say on the subject.
