How to help a chica?
- Status
I would never just send someone money on a regular basis. If i did that, it'd be a one time only thing... to start a business, learn a trade, get a work permit to somewhere with better jobs, etc (a one time thing that would set her up in the long run). If you decided to help a girl like this, how would you go about it?
I'm American, not a cynical person, married to a Dominican, but this post says it all and if you really believe what you just posted, then you will want to join the Captain Savahoe fraternity. Membership is free, plenty of support from other men just like you who also went broke after being sucked into a fantasy by a puta. Good luck. BTW, use xoom.com to send her money for kids, sick family, food, and all of the emergencies that will come up.
Well, If you dont want to go the SALON route,
Some of us have learned from others "experiences" that Chicken Farming can be Very Lucrative and profitable in the DR....
Have you ever thought about becoming a Finca owner, or Chicken farmer in the DR.?
As you know everyone loves Fresh Eggs, and Pica Pollo's are practically everywhere... no denying that .
Its a nice opportunity ,for the right, ambitious , hard working long term thinking type person..
So one should never want to help a puta under any circumstances? One should never trust one's own judgement about the situation (even if one's judgement about people is usually spot on)? And like i said, if i helped her, it'd be a one time thing. I wouldn't give another cent no matter what.
Do you know what a "10" is to the kind of chica you described?
A "2" with $8 million... :cheeky:
......................................
Reminds me of Bo Dean and Billy Bob hanging out at the cowboy bar and judging pretty girls who walk by.
Pretty brunette walks by. "6" said Billy Bob, "2" said Bo Dean.
Gorgeous blonde walks by. "8" said Billy Bob, "3" said Bo Dean.
Spectacular busty, leggy, slender natural redhead walks by. "Oh My God! That's a 10!" drooled Billy Bob. "6" said Bo Dean.
Ol' Billy Bob exploded. "You arrogant SOB! What is wrong with you? I give the girls real scores and you give them bad scores. What's up with that?"
"Maybe we aren't using the same scales," Bo Dean replied.
"Huh? What do you mean. Everybody uses the 1-10 scale."
Bo Drawled, "Naw, not me. I use the Budweiser scale."
"Budweiser scale? Never heard of that. What is the Budweiser scale?" asked Billy Bob.
"Budweiser Scale? Easy. That's how many Clydesdales it'd take to pull her off my face..."
:cheeky:
Do you realize you just called this woman you want to help a puta???? Wow I bet she would really appreciate that. IMO you just blew whatever shred of credibility you may have had.
I don't know how much time you have in the DR, but the putas do this same thing you have described to tourists every chance they get. They're counting on you thinking "you're special" and this girl has probably told this same story to many other customers. Go for it if you want. Send her a little cash via Xoom, and watch to see how long before she asks you again for money. When she does, ask her what will you get for sending it to her. Seriously, check it out with both eyes open.. don't be fooled.
Really no way to help her with exception of sending money, sad but true What she does with money, who will ever know
Mooboy,
If your post is serious, here's my advice. The first golden rule of self preservation is don't try and save the world. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt here and say your well intentioned and have a good heart, especially where children are concerned. But that doesn't mean you have to put your emotional ass in a sling here and risk your finances. Do the right thing for her and you and walk away. Trust me when I say this. She and her child will survive without your help. I know this sounds callous but it's not. She will find another white knight to rescue her as soon as you step aboard your return flight. When you get back home you will see the sanity of this. If you want to truly help the poor here, there are foundations looking for volunteers all the time.

You are fighting against a very deeply embedded culture to lie and cheat gringos out of their money.
If you send money it will make her life better but don't expect much in return. If you have lots of money who cares,go ahead , but you could also send to t an orphanage where it would be very much needed.
Wait a few months before sending her any money because by then she may be having your baby, this will make it more personal and special for you.
That is very good advice but my post was only sarcasm. My apologies for the misunderstanding.
Of course if the right girl came along....
That's the only way to go. And when she gets there don't be surprised if she heads off to New York to be with her real husband who left her behind when he went there 3 years ago.
Just a one time thing? Didn't you leave her with a few thousand pesos when you left? Wouldn't that be the one time thing.
