Bargirls expect an allowance.
I would say on average these girls get a 300-500$ monthly allowance, plus extras. The allowance generally is considered her money (at least by her), she will send some of it to her family, and spend some on herself. Don't expect her to spend part of it within the relationship. If you expect her to pick up an occasional bill make agreements about that. If you want her to save part of the money for whatever, make agreements about that too. If you expect her to use the allowance where her phone breaks down, make agreements about that too. These girls have a different look on money than most Western men do.

Ordinary girls having a job with their own income outside the bar scene are a totally different story, but those generally are not available to 'old Barang boyfriends' and you might need to learn some Khmer language to communicate with them.

It's fantastic to hear how easy it is for people in the west to get $120,000 a year spending money. Sounds like paradise.

When their Khmer husbands don’t provide enough, they go out and start a donut shop. When their Khmer husbands give too much, it means the husband have girls on the side.

It’s not at all easy. They just make it sound and look easy when they return to Cambodia all rich looking.

Missus is back in the village now. All the villagers are wondering if she is starving in the west. She came back wearing regular clothes without a pile of expensive jewelry and bling.

It is a great subject because you have a vast pool of expats who have experienced different levels of cost.
My ex needed $100us/ month to pay a loan when her dad died. I obliged..She wanted .999 gold to wear in Kampong Cham.. she would give it back to me when we went back to my place I let her keep it. Things changed for the worse over years after meeting Khmer neighbors and landlords whose husband's had a lot of dough...I asked her why she needed 5 black purses...
No matter how much I gave it was not enough.
I have watched friends give so much they ended up with their stuff out on the curb/kerb while she was driving a Lexus and the house and business were in her name. A starving Lady will take less..you have a window of great times... until they get too greedy and you too hypnotized.
How about you ladies? What do you pay men to stay with you? What is the going rate for a handsome fella to be your chaperone? I must say I grew up in an affluent neighborhood and the girls in my area all had daddy to spoil them and I knew they were the biggest whores on Earth...house, car, giant diamond ring, trips, clothes...no thanks...
I am waiting for a female to work and split costs..buy me something...have a family NOT in need.
Not lie. I just put on Vannda and 4T5 and wait..
Great subject...
I had an old troublemaker show up yesterday and she was so broke she cooked and cleaned (my jobs) and made me some roses out of material...
Geronimo...once more I dive into the pit.

I'm obviously a freak of nature, since I was the one who supported my ex boyfriend for all the years we were together in Cambodia.

He started off being a great support person while I worked 14 plus hours a day to keep him in the lifestyle he felt he deserved, but that changed as time went on.
I paid for everything - his rent, groceries, spending money etc etc and I wasn't allowed to EVER mentioned the fact that I was the bread winner, since this would make him feel less of a man.

He spent my money like he didn't have to work for it because....that's right, he didn't!

I am very happy with my cats, the 7 of us will be single forever

EVERY relationship costs something - whether it's money, time or a piece of your soul. NONE of us come out the other end unscathed.
Just make sure that you can afford to lose what it's costing you, because you'll never get it back.

I find that $5000 per month is usually enough, although some months there will be extras such as her brothers gambling debts, the family's sick buffalo needing medicine, Yay's hospital bills, nephews and nieces school fees, etc. and then whenever there's big holidays such as Khmer New Year, etc an extra $2000 or 3000 to go back to the province and buy gifts for all the family, oh, and of course the $50,000 I paid for our house for her family to live in, so we will need to build an extension or another house for us to live in
