Re Old men marrying 18+ chicks half their age
I was with a colleague yesterday who just arrived in PP.
He is a 26 years old, Anglo-American citizen, pretty straight guy, but still a nerd-type, but hard-working and honest.
Anyway, he asked me, how much money would he need to marry an 18+ pretty local girl (not a bar girl) and guessed at his age, he would need at least $50K as "dowry" (if you want to call it that, if that isn't too politically incorrect).
I know a few old guys (in their mid-late 40's and upwards) who have married young local hotties, and I know they had to pay something to the families, or buy them some hardware, but it's never discussed for obvious reasons.
Of course, many a balding old-timer will argue black n blue that it's real love when he's landed a skinny local chick half his age or less, but I guess humans being what they are, we can talk ourselves into anything.
Anyway, we had an interesting discussion about how much the amount would go up "exponentially" as the guy's age increased.
We came up with the following guide:
Guy aged 45 - Girl aged 18 = $50K
Guy aged 50 - Girl aged 18 = $100K+
Guy aged 55 - Girl aged 18 = $100K+
Guy aged 55 - Girl aged 18 = $500k+
If anyone can add to this, please feel free, who knows, maybe there is a collaborative publishing deal on the horizon.

WTF! Where the hell did you come up with those figures Dildo, especially for a 26 year old wanting to marry someone close to their age?!
I'm not a negative person, I encourage people all the time...it's usually to f**k off! But, whatever.

Total bollocks! Dowry is a scam ... Yes, HELP the family, but those sums are PURE BOLLOCKS! More like $5,000 - $20,000 if that.
A nice addition to the family home on the family land where the couple can stay in the countryside while there will do ... Can be had for about $5,000 with aircon ...
Or maybe a just $1,000-$2,000 for a run-of-the-Khmer-puppy-mill, and if they're from a prominent family maybe a bit more, but she better have education and social capital ... Maybe intro's to Oknhas in return ...
Don't be a foolish sadhat. Older-younger marriages happen in this part of the world ALL THE TIME ...

My wife is 27 and the dowry was 100% of fuck all because we married for love, although the wedding cost a few grand.
Twitter: Not my circus, not my monkeys - I sold #K440
Rubbish.
First of all a dowry is only paid when the girl is a virgin. If she was married before, there's no dowry. If she ever had a boyfriend same story, although parents might ask you to 'cheat' to gain face.
If there's dowry, you're talking a few thousand dollars for her parents, but, to gain face some gold should be bought for the girl and most Cambodian guys will give little money to the parents, but buy more gold for the girl. And the guy pays for the wedding party of course. On the other hand, all the gifts (money) handed over at the wedding will be his too, so hard to say how much the party will cost in the end.
All in all, I believe this whole dowry thing is a scam, and any girl starting to talk about it should be avoided. Run while you still can!!!

It's only July and I think we have a contender for the most stupid thread of the year.

+1 on total bollocks.
I've lost count of how many people I know who have been married here both foreigners and Khmer and I don't know any who have paid some kind of negotiated dowry. Here how it works is the man pays for the wedding and the family of the bride keep the donations given at the wedding. As were foreigners we won't be bring anywhere near as many guests to the wedding as the bride so the status of the guests she invites will be the determining factor in how large the donation pot is. In many cases the family also just gives that money straight to the bride.
That doesn't mean that money isn't a factor in marriage, most families won't want their daughter marrying someone who is perceived to be below her station and most families of the bride are looking to marry up the social ladder but there isn't some kind of fixed algorithm where you can plug in the numbers.

It's a contender, but I think it's posted for shock value, so I wouldn't vote for it.
Don't forget, we had a thread in April by a guy who really thought a tainted can of Coke gave him Hepatitis symptoms within seconds.
