Can you please provide some information that I could not find in the forum? I know there will be some different views but I could use some advice. 1. How much should I budget per night for going out in Bangkok (not including any large fee for a guy, which I understand to be 2,500 - 3000 baht)? 2. How much should I tip the performers in the bars and do I need to tip everyone of them (example: big cock show) 3. If I am not going to off a guy, would they still want me to invite them for a drink with a tip at the end? Is 100 baht a reasonable tip for one drink? 4. Do I need to tip the mamasan and/or buy them a drink if they do not provide any service other than a hello and asking me to pick a guy? 5. How long can I reasonably expect to spend with a guy for short-time in Bangkok? 6. For the drink tip at the end, should I leave the tip in the folder or take it out and give it to the waiter? One said a tip in the folder is for the house but a tip handed directly to them they keep. I appreciate any help on these questions.
