Make sure how much is enough too, before marrying, after marrying, after having childrens Sometimes enough is unlimited or changes over time!

I never approach married women, but in VN, it is damn easy to get quite a few in the 30-40 years old, 1 or 2 childrens, got many offers to be the foreigner boyfriend, or the boyfriend number 2.

1 man = 1 load of gifts and money, 2 men = 2 times more and looooots of fun in their minds. Some gals, you have to destroy their handphone, and lock them in a room to be sure they will not go out fucking around.

I have quite a few friends married in Viet Nam with vietnameses, some have very stable family, but most of them, when I take coffee or dinner with the couple, the wife is spending her time with sms, tap tap tap tap, tap tap, bip, tap tap tap... They says it is for business, but I seriously doubt it. They are gal from the middle-high educated range, never wl, so I cannot imagine what it gives with wl

The best I have seen is when there is at the same table: the foreigner husband, the wife, and the former boyfriend of the wife, because it is vn tradition to keep good relationship and contact, blabla. I have seen that so many times. Now, to what extent "former" is "former" is questionable at best. Make sure too you do not marry until you speak perfectly vietnamese, that allows you to understand some subtle differences in the way they speak about you, or to the phone.

Before I was thinking there are serious gals and not serious gals, but nowadays, I tend to think that to marry them is like playing poker.

Inflation in Viet Nam. Vast subject. I think that in the coming years, it will be more expensive here than in Singapore if the things are keeping up. No taxes, play with money like monopoly, never justify anything, cheat, bargain, fix crazy prices because they do not care to sell or not, any profit they make is 100% in their pockets. I have seen a house in Hoan Kiem area, 80 square meters, selling for over 1.2 million US two weeks ago. And the people are more aggressive in the offices for the tips, they used to ask 100.000VND, now it is more in the 100US$ range. Nothing illegal requested, but if you forget the tip, it can take years before they care about your problem. They have a crazy circle in Viet Nam. People have more money, so the sellers of anything know it and increase the prices. Then the people have to get more money to pay the same things as before, because it becomes more expensive, so they ask for more money. It rises sharply and very, very quickly those last few weeks. My local pho shop went from 14.000 in january to 29.000 yesterday.

The things that they do not realize is that this country has to be build, and most of the money circulating those days comes from sponsorships and helps from various countries at first. Not really from a stable, long-term source of income. Wait and see.
