[QUOTE=CheapCharlie;5787293]40 years today we lost, in my opinion the greatest guitarist ever. RIP Idol 🙏.[/QUOTE]Man 40 years already, shucks this guy would make EVH look silly if they did a guitar duel. It truly good to hear RR fans in this forum remember him. Truly the best of the best. Salute to Randy Rhoads. Hono1.
BTW, think I remember banging some girls in doggie to Randy Rhoades tunes. Those were the days.
[QUOTE=Makana9;5788115]Major Randy Rhoads geek, patterned a lot of his minor and playing after his styles. Wondering, his death from that plane crash in March? We still gigging, granted we are all in our 60's still doing the RnR, still and forever a Metal Head. RR is the GOAT, gone too soon. RIA.[/QUOTE]Sorry, you're right. It's March 19th, not February 19th.

Those were the days.[/QUOTE]I think so too, granted I was a EVH nut in MS, then heard RR off of tapes back in the 70's in his back in the day. The sounds he had coming from his axe, was insane! He would just play multiple lines in some of his signatures and dub all of them over was nutz! I can just imagine what he would be doing in Sound Room boards and technology of now. I am also a big Michael Schenker, Buckethead, Vai, and Herman Li of Dragon Force geek. BTW, I remember those days too, banging the hell off of girls back in the day to RR, esp. There was this one local military brat that was a groupie back then and would BJ in the back of the club during our breaks, then after we done, go over to the Wave to finish our night then take her to by Makapuu to fk our brains out and watch the Sunrise. Now, we have all types of ages in the club watching and just a couple of weeks ago, had a group of 4 Asians from Vancouver who geeked nightly on our sets, did the tourist thing with them during the day playing tour guide. Ended, banging the fk out of the Chubbier Forex Trader Chinese with $$$ back at her room at the Hyatt, play tourists, fk our brains out hiking up Tantalus (crazy the pics / selfies) she was taking. We still keep in touch off of our $$$ Discord, you know business is business but pleasure that is another program. Older, wiser, better yet being single now (is what it is), so now here we go! I thinking this generation is fkn horny as hell, so hmmmm. YOLO and HOFDL! RIA Mr. Rhoads, you are the man!
Throw out some of my faves. Uli Jon Roth, Gary Moore, Tony Macalpine, Ritchie Blackmore, Rocky George, Yngwie Malmsteen and George Lynch.
Hey brahs,
Long time lurker, second posting LOL. This site has been the holy grail for info, MAHALOS to everyone who contributes, big or small!
Wasn't sure where to ask this but figured this is probably the closest place. For all you long time (or mongers in general), just curious, what kind jobs / careers are why'all in to help sustain / fund your hobby?? Like construction, computers, etc? Don't have to be specific in the position you're in. Like why'all making 40 K and up on average or just enough to get by to fund the adventures? Like we all have bills / budgets / expenses right and was just wondering on how some of you guys are able to keep the hobby going financially. Especially when we read some of you guys go quite often more than most of us could only dream of! LOL.

[/QUOTE]For those guys who don't have kids, the money that they would have spent on raising the kids can instead be spent on the joys of mongering. The current average cost of raising one American kid to eighteen years of age (even without any college expenses) is estimated to be over $272,000, and may be even higher in Hawaii.

I am from Mainland, and go to HNL on business. What I find extremely shocking is that what kind of jobs mongers have to put up with HNL Massage Prices, or other Monger Activities. For example, one Thai Massage Therapist told me she gets $100 tip standard or more for just HE. I thought HNL had a large unemployment rate. What makes people want to pay those prices?

Maybe that includes school. I don't know. Either way, expensive.
[QUOTE=SHunter;5814439]I saw an estimate of about a million over 18 years. Maybe that includes school. I don't know.

All told, million sounds about right when you add the extras like Healthcare, dental, vision, bicycles, cars, sports, music lessons, college tuition / books / fees, dorm / apartment, food, clothes. At the same time, don't regret it at all. It was worth every penny.
Just my $0. 02. Stay safe.

ZeiRam.[/QUOTE]My best idea is to have a budget and try to stick to it. Also if you come into money due to selling something, tax return, or bonus to set some aside for the hobby. Going on a consistent basis can actually helps me budget and avoid overpaying. You can spend varying amounts of money and can also get varying levels of quality. The sex guide is an excellent place to plan and budget. Also keep in mine that have a couple of consistent places to go to helps with selection and avoiding rip offs.

To your point, I heard stories from reliable source that some guys who spend crazy money for instance on Massage, one story guy pays woman an extra $300 if she can make him cum!! How do you compete with that? For me my interest is Thai women, so then they get greedy and use to the pay from crazy monger, I think its hard to budget in that kind of corrupt business, unless you find a kind one who pities or likes you.

ZeiRam.[/QUOTE]I know one couple who did (and still do) cherry picking churning from credit card company.
They get credit card with sign up reward (cash back) then bought prepaid visa / master cards then turned them into money order. Then get cash rewards.
I think it is not that easy now cause credit card companies are dumb and churners' pattern often bring red flag of money laundering / dirt money from drug trafficking.
