you sound absolutely horrible with money management

1 month with 5k? ive been in asia for almost 5 months now and think i have spent a total of $6k

granted most of the time has been in cambodia, and i make peopleselbow look like a rapper in a music video making it rain, but still

because you live in ****hole cambodia

this guy sounded like he wants a place like samui or phuket. Both are expensive.

Have to extend my VISA in 2 weeks....damn time flies. Does anybody know if the extension also extends the time I have to use the second entry on my double entry VISA? Right now the deadline for the second entry is Jan 15th and the first entry expires Dec 24th. So I'll only be able to use 3 weeks of my extension looks like. Kinda ghey also a 2 month visa costs $40, but a 1 month extension costs around $70.

Decided, I was due for a nice Thai massage after completing a 3 workout cycle that hit back/legs/chest. Walked into a place on third road and saw the fish bowl set up. Was about to just walk out (even though 2-3 of the girls were acceptable). I explained to the Mama-San I was really just looking for a good massage and nothing more. She pulls out this sheet and tells me "VIP massage" only 380 baht for 2hr Thai massage and "happy ending included." So I caved to the pressure. As expected the massage itself was lacking in intensity and technique and left me overall pretty disappointed. Although she did punish my legs front and back and my whole upper body, it just left me feeling unsatisfied. I can't explain it really, but massage affectionados will understand only the best masseuses keep up a pattern/rhythm and intensity that has you almost overwhelmed with pain and joy and relaxation all at once the entire time.

Lucky for her, her bbbj skills were 10/10. Sometimes I can't even bust from a bj even a bbbj and I already got laid this morning/afternoon when I woke up so I was pretty surprised to be shooting one right into the back of her throat inside of 10min. That was only the intermission after she did a full tiger balm deep tissue rub of the entire back of my body from foot to neck. She then spend another 30min or so on my front thighs, chest/arms and asked me if I wanted boom boom. Finished me off for a second nut with excellent cowboy post. high speed boom boom.

I hand over 400 baht thinking she earned a 20 baht tip. Overall good value for $12. Would repeat.

So guess I'm going for 3 girls 5 nuts today. Which is just training for my birthday coming up where I plan to break lifetime personal records.

Breena, feel better soon man, sucks to get sick with only a week left. I'm up for Jet Skiing and/or parasailing when you're feeling better. Need some motivation to be out of bed before 12:30pm anyway.

Dude.. Dude!

Getting 12$ happy ending massages, 5 busted nuts in 1 day!? Jet Skiing/parasailling whenever?

How much monies you need to have to live this baller lifestyle?

I've spent $3000usd since I got here 6 weeks ago. easily $700 of that is for the deposit on my place and buying household items (sheets/pillows/hot pot/cutlery/dishes/electric kettle/rice cooker/towels/ect).

Ya, pooter was advising the same thing and I was reading about all the scams before. I'm going parasailing on Monday. Costs about 600-800 baht, should be a blast.

If you go to the beach in Jomtien there are legit guys who rent out jetskis there. To be sure I always rent from the same guy when I'm there. Never had a problem.

The beach in Jomtien is way better anyway.

Theres a guy I speak to here whos been here a while. With a bit of run good I will catch him today and ask him if he knows anyone to rent the jet ski off Ebffs.

Ive also noticed that some of the guys doing the jet skis are also hussleing chairs, would of thought these guys would be the better ones to use as they are always in the exact same spot so probably running a more solid business?

Or they are just have the best police/mafia connections, I'm pretty sure extorting people out of 20k+ every time someone rents a jetski creates more money for bribes than running a 'solid business'?

Come on man not everyone on the beach can be scamming. If they have a chair business surely it doesn't go down to well when all the $h!t hits the fan cause its going to cause a scene right.

I dont know much about it anyways but I do know that selling drugs is more easier and proffitable than working but we are not all doing that. Thanks for answering my question with a question though, think Im just going to stay indoors.

Why not do both?

That's actually the beauty of the jetski scam and part of the reason why it's hard to shut down.

They are running a solid business. They are probably all cooked, but I know several people who have rented jet skis and everyone I know had 0 problems. Most people have 0 problems. But every so often, if they see a target and an opportunity they will scam.

probarly a good idea for you, the main beach has alot of jelly fish in the waters, you can jump in and pretend you got stung by one and the only way to end the stinging is for her to pee on you.
