I was surprised that this came up as controversial. I thought this was all fairly obvious, and we'd chuckle together over the situation. The first couple of posts agreed. In order for the wife NOT to be a scamster, ALL of the following must be true: (1) AI is way, way off on JvdB's net worth. While unlikely, this is the most plausible in this list to be true, since none of us have access to his financial records (nor do anyone but his wife, accountant, and financial advisor). (2) Despite having medical insurance, he was out $250,000 in medical expenses. My mother had dementia and required constant care for over a year, and the sum was nowhere near that (although she had long-term care insurance, so even that amount, which was far under $250,000, was covered). If she'd had a spouse, the costs would have been far less.  (3) This amount magically changed to $1.2 million, then $1.5 million. Oh, and she's now collected $2.7 million and still going.  (4) Knowing of his impending death, JvdB purchased a massive estate, knowing full-well that his soon-to-be widow would be unable to pay for it, AND the bank gave him the mortgage despite a supposed inability to repay? Preposterous! Even if all of those statements were true, and I can't imagine it to be the case, they could simply move to a less expensive place.  This silly argument reminds me of the musical Book of Mormon, with the song stating that facts are irrelevant. What's important is belief. If you feel your charity $$ are best spent helping a widow live a lavish lifestyle on a massive property, go ahead. If any of you are Muslim, it's Ramadan, and time to give your required Zakat. May I suggest Helping Hand for Relief and Development? I found them by accident since they were one of the charities rated 100% by Charity Navigator, and sent them some money. As it turns out, they're a Muslim charity, so I make my donations to them during Ramadan (as a bit of a joke to me). https://www.charitynavigator.org/ein/311628040 "Helping Hand for Relief and Development is a global humanitarian relief and development organization responding to human sufferings in emergency and disastrous situations anywhere all over the world regardless race, gender, ethnicity, class, location, religion, color, cultural diversity and social background; with special focus on countries where the massive population is living below the poverty line. In addition to our emergency relief efforts in natural or man made disaster areas, we also work on long term relief and development programs like livelihood, economic empowerment, orphan and widows support program and skill development program." So would you rather go with the actual research Charity Navigator used to determine the effectiveness of the charity money? Or the unlikely musings of a widow from her giant mansion?

You are right, sometimes dick is attached to a real dick

Since March and April are by far my busiest months of the year, my hospitality is suspended for that period. I live far from the City but close to the airport which makes easy to dispose misbehaving guests. I don't have gold faucets, I don't have Trump's taste. Cheap, chrome plated will do for you  since they are good enough for me. My guests are supposed to cook at least 4 dinners per week, be forewarned. I provide provisions , you just need to cook.  Country is indeed beautiful but March and to a degree April are still winter months.

@PeterRS How does one use a map that is 15 years old? There's a serious risk of outdated information. I always prefer online maps. They are more likely to be up to date and since I am already carrying a phone, why carry another object - a book? But coming to the point, I have never had trouble finding places in Japan, though maybe I haven't been trying to get to out of the way places. Most establishments nowadays are able to send you a googlemap reference that is very accurate.

On a different thread someone posed the question: what are the different understandings of the word 'twink' among us. I very much want to add my thoughts to that question, but first, I have to gather my thoughts.  As for Good Boy, I don't call the rotation boys in Good Boy twinks. If I have to find a word, I'd use the anodyne 'medium build'. But I see a huge difference between the medium-builds of Good, Fresh and Hotmale. There is what I call the "effortless medium" -- the kind of physique that the deity above makes quite naturally out of young men. Some people call it the 'boy next door' type. They are beautiful in my eyes. I see many in Fresh and Hotmale of this type. I see none in Good. Then there is the "scruffy medium" -- where what the deity has made has been modified by hard labour. They are taut, sinewy, maybe a bit weather-beaten. Some might think of the terms 'tradie type', or 'farmhand type'. They predominate in Good. Made worse by unkempt hair and gross tattoos, thus "scruffy", often bringing to mind street hawkers. The third type is the opposite of Scruffy. I call them the "washed mediums". Yeah I prefer my boys clean and washed. What the deity has made is modified again by a bit of gymming into slightly sculpted bodies -- but not all the way a la Moonlight models, which is likely aided with chemical enhancement. Often, washed mediums come with good skin and nice haircuts. I see some of them at Fresh, and many more of them at Hotmale.
