???                                                      10----RULES
1. At the end of the week, specifically Friday and Saturday, many locally employed walking ATM machines will come to your bar, choose carefully! Some have money, but others do not! If he is wearing a suit and tie, check that the tie is not a Pratunam special and check that he isn't wearing trainers.
If he is, forget him because he is most likely an English teacher, and they will only give you peanuts, if they give you anything at all.

2. No matter how fat and ugly he is, no matter how bad he may smell, no matter how drunk he is, make sure you always tell him he is handsome. Sit close to him and run your hands over his body, arousing him.
As soon as he has paid the bar fine, you can stand clear of him. Even if he knows that you despise him, he'll still pay you. The hard part is getting him to pay the bar, and as soon as he has done that, the rest is easy.

3. Start collecting email addresses from all of your customers, once you have a good collection of addresses, a visit to your local Internet cafe is in order. Send everyone an email. Simply change the name on each email and send it off to all the guys. If you can remember something specific about them, mention that in the email too.
These walking ATMs all have a soft heart, so you need to tell them a story to get them to send you some of their riches. Start with a sick buffalo and if he doesn't reply, next tell him that your mother is ill. As a last resort, if he still doesn't send any money, tell him you are pregnant and the baby is his!
4. Practice crying on cue. It is essential that you can produce tears immediately. This will have the effect of helping the walking ATM machine to see things your way!

5. When you get a customer for an extended period of time, make sure he takes you shopping, with Rarn Tong (gold shop) being the best place to visit. Make sure he buys you gold and if he doesn't, see rule 4!
As soon as he has left Thailand, take the gold back to the shop and sell it straight back to them, thus increasing your pay out.

6. When locally based farangs are inside the bars, do not speak in Thai with your friends in the bar but rather use Lao, Khmer or any other dialects that you may know.
It's bad enough that some of them can speak and even read Thai, but Lao and Khmer should be kept as sacrosanct. Under no circumstances should the farang be taught our regional dialects.

7. Always see him off at the airport. Thai currency cannot be used in his country, so it is highly likely that he will give you all of his leftover Baht as he leaves and says goodbye.
While accompanying him to the airport, prevent him buying going-away gifts for his family and friends in his homeland, this will leave more money for you.

8. See Asian customers. They understand that we like to gamble, and they understand that we have lots of unemployed brothers and sisters who need to eat. Therefore, they pay a lot better than the farangs.

9. Remember, when you go with a farang, you must always ask for taxi money and give him the excuse that taxi drivers cannot give change on big notes. Don't let him see the small change in your wallet. If taxi money isn't forthcoming, see rule 4.

10. If you are no longer making money in Bangkok, move down to Phuket where you will be able to start making money again. Give Phuket a few years, then move on to Pattaya. Even if you are approaching 50, it is no problem as the walking ATM machines in Pattaya seem to be so blind, they will not notice.

Cynical and perhaps too accurate!

hi'
so true, might too much true for some ...
a little fun with words, thanks for the text  ::

Truth hurts at times,

VERY FUNNY, I HAVE SEEN IT ALL, MY WIFE IS THAI SHE COME THE LINE WITH ME BEFORE, NOW SHE IS LEARNING, WE ARE NOT AS RICH IN ENGLAND AS SHE FIRST THOUGHT BUT SHE STILL SEAMS TO LOVE ME A LITTLE, NOT AS MUCH AS WHEN SHE SAW THE WAD OF THAI BHATT IN MY PASSPORT WHEN MY SAFTEY BOX WAS OPENED IN OUR HOTEL THE FIRST TIME I MET HER. MY IDEA IS GIVE HER FAMILY AND WHOEVER ELSE IT IS SHE FEELS NEEDS A LITTLE CASH, NO MORE THAN I WOULD GIVE TO THE CHARITY FOR SICK DONKEYS, SHE IS STARTING TO UNDERSTAND THINGS NOW SHE IS IN ENGLAND, WE ALSO HAVE A DAUGHTER, THIS HAS ALSO CHANGEED HER. BUT I STILL GET APPROACHED IN THAILAND WHEN I GO AND GET ASKED ALL THE SAME QUESTIONS, YOU KNOW NAME, AGE, HOTEL, HOW LONG YOU STAY, WHEN DID YOU COME, ONCE THEY HAVE THESE QUESTION ANSWERED THEY ARE IN LOVE WITH ME!!! BUT WE STILL CAN NOT RESIST THE CHARM OF THESE HARD WORKING SAD LITTLE LADIES.

Thanks for the 10 rules, i read them very carefully to see if you missed any and i could not find any you missed you really nailed it.
Maybe one possable one. Some of the girls are starting to ask if you have an active  paypal account. That way they can handle money transfers directly from the internet shop without even going to the ATM
thanks again

Don't they have AMEX these days?  :cool:

[cobra]

Ay yes, the Ten Commandments of income generation ...

But lets look at this as an exchange, a consumer item, something that is merely deducted from our "entertainment" account.
No different than buying coffee, paying insurance or any other expenditure.

It's just a service and you always have to pay for services ... if you're silly enough to think it's any more ( or going to be anymore), well, you will be a Bio ATM ... cobra

I enjoyed it more first time around when I read it yesterday. Must've been mangosause.com

Nice to see a sharing of resources around the websites.

A friend of mine told me this yesterday. He was in Pattaya with a girl, oddly enough not paying her. When he asked for her email address, she said she didn't have one, but she offered her bank account number instead. Gotta love these girls.

I thought that a Thai woman's email account and a bank account were strikingly similar Dave.

It's called survival Reggie old son.

It is not a nasty post on bargirls, nor is it untrue - however it is a little bitter because us men secretly resent having to pay for sex; but not nearly as much as a bargirl would resent having to be screwed by somebody who's only means of geting any sex would be to pay for it.

I do sympathise with the farangs also, I really do because it is a cruel world and not everyone is blessed with youth or beauty.

It's all a game between the farang and the BG, both trying to get as much as possible from the other with the least amount of tax.

If we were bargirls we would be exactly the same would we not?

[Stocky]

Not again. I saw the 10 rules posted about 4 times yesterday by someone called Farang bha.

I laughed the first time I read it, now ennui has set in
