How to scam a BG.

I have just been reading a thread about currency exchange and it reminded me of a funny story I was told by a go-go girl a few years ago.

I was finishing the price negotiation with a go-go girl when she insisted that she is to be paid in Thai Baht, I have never had this condition before so I enquired as to the reason.

She told me that a few nights before she had finished a short time with an Italian customer when he asked her if she would accept one thousand Lire rather than one thousand Baht because this being his last night he was low on Thai currency. For reasons that even she could not explain she assumed that one thousand Lire was the equivalent of one thousand dollars, and so she eagerly accepted. The following day when she attempted to exchange the note it was worth 16 Baht, and tried every bank she could find in the hope that the banks had made a mistake.

It must have been a sad day for this guy when Italy changed over to the Euro because he can no longer get a short time and change from a twenty Baht note.

Yep have had it happen to a couple of my girls in the past. My did they ever get a shock. I think one was given HKD100 for LT, and the other I think accepted IDR10,000, she got an even bigger surprise than the other one.

The girl who got HKD only got short time price plus 37 Baht tip! Not so bad!! Maybe she didn't bargain hard enough.

The other girl got 4 Baht, less a few satang! Poor girl!!

Guys I can understand your concerns for the BG in question but if I was to finish the story you might not be so damning. However, a word of warning is advised if you choose to hear this story. It will be a giant rollicking rolla coaster of a tale filled with betrayal and sizzling gypsies.

I Dont Get It .whats The Point

I Don't understand how a guy like that Italian who give the girl 16thb in his own currency
would bother to travel half way round the world at pay in excess of just say 450 euros NOW
to swindle a girl who earns probably not 20%of his wage in his own country.
what sort of kick or buzz would anyone get out of it, You could call it rape in some countries

what comes around goes around,

Really Pee's me off!

Why scam the girls? They are lovely!! I love them to bits!! I know a lot of the BM's quote 1000 Baht LT which is great and you still get the Blokes who say "Don't give them anymore!! You are pushing the prices up!" OK!! I give the girls what I think they deserve and it is invariably a little bit more than a thousand! Up to me! OK? My money.

I'd love 5 minutes with the rip-off merchants as mentioned and agree with Faulty here and say - What kind of a holiday would you possibly have trying to keep your head up high on and around Bangla knowing that the finger is being pointed at you? Hard hearted B4stard to do that IMHO. I just couldn't do it.

For the short time I am on holiday, any girl (or Bob! I don't hide it) who is with me at that time, is on holiday too! Fcuk me, we are loaded in comparison with these girls.....................Arrrrrrrrghhhh! I need a smoke and a coffee now..........I am sooooooooooooooo Fcukin' angry!

The saga continues...

This story was told to me while I was negotiating a short time but it was not for that night. I prefer to drink and flirt with the girls in the evenings and enjoy them carnally in the afternoons. When I told the BG that I would require her for about 2pm the following day she said she could not because her boyfriend was arriving at 10am and she was meeting him at the airport.

I was happy to leave it when she suggested that she could come to my hotel at 8am and leave for the airport at 9am. The arrangement was for a double short time; wham bam then talk about the weather for 30 minutes then wham bam thank you ma’am all in an hour. All was agreed but I knew she would not turn up because only one in ten BGs turn up if the allotted time is pre-midday.

Imagine my surprise when at 7:50am there was a knock at my door and there she was bright eyed and bushy tailed. We immediately saddled up and went for our morning ride after a few minutes of galloping she told me to slow down a bit. I asked her if I was riding the pony a bit to roughly and she said no it was because she did not want her soon to arrive boyfriend to see that the pony had been ridden hard only and hour earlier. I slowed to a canter as the ride ended and we dismounted for a rest.

I tried to talk about the weather but she was clock watching and wanted to get going for the second ride as soon as I could, so we saddled up again and Hi-Ho Silver away! This time around she was very concerned about how tired her pony was going to look after this second ride and complained if I so much as broke into a trot. I accepted her concerns and let her end the ride by leading my stallion by hand.

She showered inspected herself thoroughly in the rooms vanity mirror and set of to meet her boyfriend. I often wonder if the 16 Baht rip off was actually Karmic punishment for treating her boyfriends with such disrespect and that the Italian was actually a tool of the Gods.

No.

She is a pro and she is there to MAKE money, not have the p1ss taken out of her by some cheap charlie.

Some of the girls call their regular punters 'boyfriends'.

Was the Italian man a tool of the Gods ? - nope, he was just a ****.
