Hello. RT here. How does one say, "I'm sorry, but I do not give tips to people who ask for them." Both a literal translation and a "Peruvian" version of those sentiments would be appreciated. Thanks.

well the literal translation will be:.."Lo siento, pero no doy propina a gente que la pide" .....Now a peruvian way will be a litle hard because there is no peruvian way at all....Giving tips is not part of the culture in lima...I'm used to give tips when in lima but is my way to making people remember me in my next trip, .. I do the same with kines when they behaved, so next time I call her I'll have the upper hand over the other guys that want her services at the same time than me....Just think about it in the spanish forum I'll never say what I just said because I already know the reaccion of many cofrades...it will be "you are spoiling the girl".."you are making the price go up" or BS like that...............Now that I'm thinking about it...the peruvian way will be a simple : Estoy micio brother (followed by a dirty look)

A "no doy propina cuando me piden" or simply "NO TENGO" would be sufficient to put those guys in their place. They just want to take advantage of the tourist. This has happened to me in Mexico, DR and Colombia. Guys have asked for a propina without deserving it. In Cancun, the guy that inspected the rental car after I returned it asked me for a tip! WTF. In some cases I had to tip them since I was with the wife and felt embarrased. Juan

actually guys, do you now when is the best time to give tips in Lima? ..its when they dont expect it....back in the late 90s the hotel Maria Angola had a casino, I used to go there a lot to play this mechanic horses game...well I used to make money out of those machines but one day I made so much that I just started to give tips to almost everybody that worked there from the security guys to the girls at the counters, you wouldnt believe the way all of those people open up to me after that...They became my bodies basicly, to the point of protecting you if got in trouble. ...Almost the same thing happened in the golden Palace in san isidro, but since there, there is so many supervisors walking around I just gave nice tips to the girls of my liking,....They greeted me with kisses on the cheeck I remember and they were damn cute man, as a matter of fact the golden has the best looking chicks of all casinos in my opinion, with some respectable exceptions like a girl in the atlantic city ;-) ...and my tips were not that big really but 10, 20 soles for them is money and if your tips are dollars even better....the problem these days is that 2 weeks is just not time enough to be acquaintanced with nobody...and yeah the anfitriona girls are usually the best looking, the problem with them is that tips wont do the trick but if you are a frequent gambler that can help you a lot ...i'm sorry if I went off topic a little but believe me casinos in lima are not just for gambling you can get laid too.

Hey, being married has its advantages. Whenever I'm with a date I'm usually more generous than I should. I'm afraid of being perceived as el cheapo, and not get a second date or get laid.

Speaking about getting laid. Do you mean asking them out as civilians or are the casino anfitrionas semi-pros?

Well you are better than me....I live in casinos and never get laid...a few phone numbers yes..... but not much else. Sly

...no no ..I mean as civilians, but you have to be a frequent visitor that way they get to know you..and always make sure (of course in a subtle way)...that they know where you come from..and that you are single and available

....maybe you pay too much attention to the tables and not enough to the the girls ....brother I used to basicly live in the Atlantic City back in the late 90s, ...I used to shave and take breakfast there literally but like I said I wasnt a big gambler just table roulette some times but mainly this horse racing game....but back to the girls. I learn something in those days and is that You definitely have to keep a low profile with the security guys and supervisors but never apply the same philosophy to the girls, befriend those girls, when you win something be a tipper, being a gringo is a big aphrodisiac for those girls they just dont show it and I'm not talking about being blonde and having blue eyes, I'm talking about just being some one that have the means to change her life and many diferent ways. It doesnt mean that you will but you could if you wanted..You just reinforce that idea that they have.......Getting laid with these girls is not easy it takes time but being a gringo is half the batle won already, peruvian girls wet their panties with the idea of having a gringo baby, I'm not saying go and do it..just let them dream a little

That explains why RT is treated like a movie star at the saunas and whorehouses in Lima. Up until now I’ve been scratching my head trying to figure out why the girls were all over him at the places we visited. The girls act as if Brad Pitt just walked in. Needless to say, the girls all ignored me (damned whores).

..ahahahaha!! ....yes I know how you feel, but dont blame the girls blame the mothers that put that stuff in those girls brains since they are teens...but if you are a U.S citizen or european (for them is the same) ....you are a gringo too, the diference is that you have to let them know, RT; he just have to show up (I know its a cruel world)...but look at it this way, we have the same blue passport as he does....we just have to work a little harder

Indeed. Work harder and spend more. One of my strategies is to pay with a $100 bill when on a date with a civilian. In most cases this will impress the girls and help to loosen up their panties.

Man, If I was a chick and see you heading my way wrapped around in an XL towel, I would run for the hills.

Im not going to translate the phrase "Quien no arriesga no gana" perhaps thats what those people think when they ask for it. Of course there has to be certain manners in order to ask for a Tip. So think about it, you always give tips in your countries, why it shouldnt be the same here?. As a peruvian at first I use to Tip 5 soles, now its usually 10 and sometimes 15 at the most. I cant talk about Kines, just the regular waitress or the guy who look for your car, etc.
