Currency conversions..

[LurkerSpeaks]

As I am about to head to Montreal, I was checking current currency conversions... notice they are in increments we can relate to for the foreign amounts

 

$20 CAD (price of one closed curtain lap dance in Montreal) = $15.86 US

 

$50 Reis (price of one programa in Brazilian sauna) = $21.65 US

 

So, our dollar may not go as far as we like here at home, but if we venture out to certain foreign lands, we can definitely still get more Bang for our buck.

For currency conversion I use this site called Oanda http://www.oanda.com Check it out!

 

As for traveling and exchange rates, Americans and travelers from the Euro zone could also enjoy London better at this time

I have found http://www.x-rates.com helpful, but sadly don't do international travel any more myself.

geeze.. you guys are no fun...

 

I wasnt suggesting any particular way to exchange currency.. merely showing what you can get in other places and a co-relation as to what it costs you in USD..

The Thai baht is over 35 to the dollar. That will buy a lot of d**k for your dollars.

Depends who you talk to. Offing a guy from a gogo bar in Bangkok or Pattaya typically costs TBt300-400 paid to the bar (about $10). Then for a "short time" (i.e. not overnight) I think most guys pay about TBt1000 (around $30). "long time" (overnight) is about TBt1500 ($45 or so). But then you are also expected to provide breakfast, etc. Some will tell you that since times are so tough the boys will accept less just to make some money. Personally I would pay Bt1000. I don't do overnights. You can also get a sex massage in lots of places which also varies wildly. Some places have minimum "tips" to the masseur in addition to what you pay the massage house. But rates are typically similar or a little more than a gogo boy. Freelancers can be picked up on the street for less. As always in Thailand, "up to you".
