Before Covid, gogos used 10 day contracts only when they had a shortage of ladies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(worked the expensive hotels in Chiang Mai through an escort service) Sadly I had to get rid, as her previous customers would arrive in Thailand and call her, and she wasn't about to turn down 40kbht+ for 2 nights and an all expenses paid holiday in Phuket/Krabi/etc. Lovely girl, ended up married to an old Dutch guy who built her a resort just outside of Chiang Mai. At least it didn’t cost you 660,000 quid to get rid of her. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danderman123 Posted June 23, 2022 Author Share Posted June 23, 2022 I was minding my own business here in Dubai, when a Thai lady in Abu Dhabi sent me a Facebook friend request. I responded, and she immediately messaged me. After a few messages, she began talking about not having a job. Instant block. A great example of a lazy Thai lady. She probably gets by fishing for suckers on the internet. Easy money. I can’t imagine that anyone would send money to a lady they haven’t met, but there are such idiots.

Say B9000 a month. Most probably live at home with parents, but if not, a room comes to about B2000 a month, electric another B500, phone/internet B250. B6000 a month or so food and spending money, maybe a bit more if they share the room. Not a lot, but they seem to manage... My kid finished Uni last year, she's getting paid 20k month + free air-con apartment shared with a co-worker. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhunLA Posted June 23, 2022 Share Posted June 23, 2022 Daughter graduated Uni last year, offered job where she interned, and where she applied elsewhere, but declined, 25-30k a month starting salary. Choosing self employment instead, on my advice, so I did support her for 6 months, while getting started. Spent 6 months developing her own online business. Found she had too much time on her hands, so took the job offered where she interned at while in last year of Uni. Started at 28k, now averages 40+k a month (less than 6 months in), and in another year, hopes to be knocking on 100k a month, just on the salaried job. Buying a 2.6 mill baht house in August, for investment only. No assistance from me, after she started working. None for the house purchase. Understand not all can take Uni classes full time, but really not necessary to. Can do both, uni & work, just takes longer. Or work while trying self employment part time. Many restaurant owners started as street vendors. Many hobbyist turned their passion into businesses. Those putting in the effort, and choosing wisely can easily be successful here, as anywhere, when applying one's self. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course being raised in an international environment with solid economic compare to those who have toxic parents and environment where there is few role models and few chances to succeed after years indoctrinated in the village schools and temples. Some still manage to climb the ladder, most is status q. There is unfortunate not much creative thinking after had been indoctrinated in the thai society especially country side of Isaan. NB edit not: Still brother in law managed to become high in Goverment position as engineer with great help from family. Dirt poor when growing up, now boss of one of the road developing departments.

If you just need to pay for sex, that's easy to do elsewhere. Yes I paid for sex in the uk. it was just called something else !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
