On my recent trip to Nikon, we stayed at the home of a ladyboy who used to work at My Way. On hearing of the accomodations, I was a bit skeptical of where I would be staying although my friend assured me it was very nice, and the room I would be given was air con with its own bathroom.
I should not have worried on this count. The home turned our to be palatial in any country. It was a beautful two story, four bedroom home with very nice yard and gardens. It was fully fenced and gated and first class in every sense. It also turns out I knew the ladyboy and had met her farang bf in the past.
The home was worth about 7 million bt (and this is in the deep South of Thailand where things are very cheap). The ladyboy also had two other nice homes for her family valued at about 3 million bt for the both of them. In addition, she owned two bridal shops, one a two floor, nicely appointed huge shop. The cost was around 4 million bt. She had a very nice car. From my understanding, she had a huge savings.
Of course, her German farang bf had paid for everything. The stories were mixed if she and the farang were still together, but I would assume with a minimum 20 million bt investment over the years, he had to be in the picture somewhere. Her gay brother still worked for him in Germany (he was home on holiday at the time). She did have a gorgeous Thai BF who meekly stayed at her feet and did everything for her (my BF was never like that). I think my one friend who told me her and her farang BF were finished did not want me to think bad of her because she had a Thai BF as well.
She was very nice and gracious and as beautiful as any ladyboy I have ever seen in LOS (or probably anywhere). She had used her beauty and grace to greatly elevate herself and her family. She also scared the hell out of me because she was also a good friend to my former BF, and I finally understood the example he had in mind when it came to the expectations he had of a farang BF.
I wonder how many Thai boys in LOS know of Yo, the famous ladyboy with a 20 million bt endowment from her farang BF and are searching for a farang from whom they can expect the same? I wonder if her German BF knew of her Thai BF? If 20 million bt can't keep your Thai BF faithful, then there is probably little hope.
I realize most Thai boys are realistic enough to know that farang like Yo's BF are very, very rare. However, I'm sure for many, they see examples like this, and thinking all farang are rich, do try to get as big of a slice a pie as possible. There are probably many unvoiced expectations they have (some probably unrealistic to a farang's financial situation) and some resentments that build when these expectations are never met. I always noticed with my own BF that there was some bigger goal always ahead (if I buy the gold, then ask for the shop; if I buy the shop, then ask for the motorbike; if I buy the motorbike then ask for the new kitchen).
The Thai ladyboy who made very good. Something for all Thai boys to aspire to (and who can blame them).
