Hi Fatboy, hope your jouney back to the UK went ok.
I feel i should put in a few comments here. Firstly, fatboy, great to see you again and sorry that things went sour with Emma. Perhaps when your bitterness has dissipated you'll see the lighter side.
Anyway, 14,00 for 9 days full time isnt so much - look at your comments above about the girls from NEP wanting 4000 ! Considering you'll be paying at least 1000 for short time, ie 1 hour, then 1500 for 24 hours isnt so great, is it? I agree Emma's comments about not going with you if she knows you "only" pay 14,000, are bang out of order. Its true she, along with one or two others, (
Ae and C) consider they're something special, and when they ask for 3000+ should be rejected. However these girls
do get that sort of money, so its a case of supply and demand. Why work for less, if you know you can get a high price - what would
you do in that situation?
Secondly, its always a good idea to create a "contract" right at the start - tell them what you want, and what you're prepared to pay. Its up to them to accept or decline. At least both parties know where they stand. And remember, food, drinks, entertainment and all those extras dont factor into the contract negotiation as far as they're concerned. They will expect you to pay all that anyway. If somebody wanted
you to work 24 hours a day, the least you would expect is to be provided with food and drink along the way. Also, Emma wll have lost some face to the other princesses by "only" getting 1500 a day, hence some of the badmouthing.
I have to say i have
always paid more than that for LT, right from when i first came here 6 years ago. I'm not saying your name is Charlie, but if your budget is 1500 a day, you might do better sticking to short times. Then, you dont get involved in all the extras too! I know you like the GFE, but wait 'til you find one who really wants to stay with you, you'll have a much better experience and no bitterness at the end.
Dont let this experience cloud your judgement of Thailand, Phuket, or C & Ds. Just put it down to experience - part of the learning curve. We've all been there! I'm sure you'll feel better in a couple of days, and start planning your next adventure.
