General Travel Plan Announcements

[QUOTE=Dickhead;446193]Yeah, I musta spent $4,000 the three months I was just there. Maybe $4,500. About broke the bank. I've been to 14 countries so far this year and spent less than $25k including air fare. And I only got laid about 50 times so far. I must be doing something wrong. Like not paying middlemen.[/QUOTE]This particular Hotel-Motel-Holiday Inn does not pay a dime.

They don't need to I guess.

Actually a few years ago they said something about not during season and I think it's season year round.

Why don't you ask them about it.

But I still send people there because it's nice and private and who cares about a few pesos.

Meaning I don't give a shit if anybody stays there or not.

But most hotels and apartment rental companies are at about the 15% level.

Restaurants and bars are at the 10% level.

Travel agencies and taxis and limos and just about every time you spend 1 of your centavos somebody gets a part of it.

Shopping centers and malls and Mom and Pop's are 10%.

Tango shows. Bus tours. Boat tours. Soccer ticket outlets.

I think that up to 65% goes to the owner of the Privado. Doesn't that hurt?

The poor little sperm banks only get to keep about 35% sometimes.

Maybe that's a good reason to go straight to the owner of the biz.

The Indies.

Nothing that we can do about it because the rates seem to remain exactly the same whether you slither in on your own or whether somebody helps you get fucked.

It's the way the world goes round in most parts of the world. Even the USA.

If you like the rates at the hotel then you will LOVE this story.

That little bullshit front for a coin shop across from Newport and McDonald's that exchanges dollars for so many of the Boys around here also buys and sells gold.

It was about $1200.00 dollars an oz. All over the world except for there I guess.

I was looking to sell and they were kind enough to explain to me that there is such a small demand for gold in Argentina that the value was only $800.00 dollars an oz.

That is the Mother of All!

I should have shot him on the spot.

Thanks DH !

Always Entertaining!

I thought I was being nice with the [I]terciopelo[/I]. In any case, when someone makes an initial post and asks questions that have been answered a thousand times, someone usually says to "RTFF." I left out the obscenities and he still came back with snark. I could have sent him a [I]sorete[/I] instead of a [I]pedo[/I] but I am trying to be nice.

When I said "Be Nice", I did so with my tongue buried deep in my cheek.

Hello - I will be visiting BA this Christmas for a week and am very excited as this is my first trip to Argentina. Apart from enjoying the beautiful city, I am also looking forward to meeting some high-end english speaking chicas (hopefully in early 20s). I look forward to engaging with 5-8 of them as I here that the talent in BA is extraordinary. I am new to the forum so please PM me or respond to this post with tips / recommendations / contact info. Highly appreciate all the help. Thanks!

I will be in Buenos Aires from Tues. Feb. 9 to Feb. 19; staying in the Microcenter area. Anybody wants to get together for a beer or coffee say at Excedra or some other place, drop me a PM. Been 9 years since the last time I was in BA.

Well tomorrow night.

Should be at Exedra around 11, If they are not closed for some holiday.
