Still Waiting for SBR to Reimburse My Airfare as Promised

**Reload** · 08-08-17, 05:45 PM

I'm sure they will take care of this quick. Nice they offered this.

Just when I thought all those pitiful JJ broke dik stories couldn't be matched....then rolls in Goatman. He'll be the first American (not sure if he's white), that will have to swim across the border.

If I read the initial post correctly I think he lives in a city like 150 miles from Mexico City, but that city has a significant foreign and expat presence which he may be part of. The post seemed way too well written to be a 2nd language I thought

Yes, I indeed live in the expat mecca that was recently named Best City in the World by Travel and Leisure. I do just fine, thank you. I doubt some of the people calling me a broke fuk could afford to live here without an actual 9-5 for as long as I have. I appreciate SBR sending the funds today, although since they were sent as a purchase transaction, the money is still on hold with PayPal. Fortunately, after a few follow-up calls to my bank and credit card company, funds were provided and all is well.

I thought I might regret posting this, which I do, but I've got thick enough skin to take it in stride. You know you've f'd up when food stamp recipients like JJ start calling you broke!

Not like a king, no. But it's a much better life than I had being a slave to a job in the States. I work about two hours a day and do whatever I want for the rest of my day. It's not bad.

**jjgold** · 08-09-17, 05:23 AM

Get out of Mexico man

**opie1988** · 08-09-17, 07:03 AM

Well....I def work more than "2 hours a day", so you got me there. But on the flip side...I can goddam sure travel abroad and not worry that if the $300 I was promised is delayed, I won't end up sleeping in an alley somewhere in some 3rd world shithole.

A couple of days delay on a $300 travel voucher and this motherfukker is living a real life version of Locked Up Abroad

**jjgold** · 08-09-17, 07:05 AM

Opie did you approve of the funds yesterday?

Yes. I saw this thread and told Lou to go ahead and PayPal this poor fukk his $300.

**USCPHILLYGUY** · 08-09-17, 07:09 AM

What I don't get about the whole story is that most people pay for their whole flight- not just getting to a place. If his ticket was confirmed by SBR how was he stranded on his way home?

Goater so this doesn't happen again, up those hours worked to 4hours per day

**grease lightnin** · 08-09-17, 07:15 AM

I spent some time with my best friend in Bulgaria this summer.

He has owned a hostel there on the Black Sea for 10 years.

It is damn near 3rd world, but beautiful. And laaaaid back.

During this time he has worked 4 months out of the year, and traveled the rest.

For years he called me a slave and said he'd never come back.

He now has two young daughters and is moving back this winter and getting a job at a bank.

For years I thought he was crazy and like all of his family would urge him to move back.

Now I have been there and got a taste of what he has been living, and I envy him.

And although I know it is for the best, I feel kind of bad for him that he is giving it up.

**opie1988** · 08-09-17, 07:20 AM

Update: Goatman texted us a pic here at SBR

Can now confirm Goatman is safely on his journey back to his way of "living like a King" in his hometown!

Great ending to this feel good story

**USCPHILLYGUY** · 08-09-17, 07:25 AM

Fukin opie

**Goatman** · 08-09-17, 07:46 AM

Maybe it was $300 for you guys, but my flight was $715. It's beside the point though. Maybe you guys missed the part where I got home with my own funds, but whatever.

**USCPHILLYGUY** · 08-09-17, 08:04 AM

Still trying to figure out why you'd buy a one way ticket & not round trip

what funds did you have to spend on the trip? How did you check into the hotel without a credit card.

Id think you'd have garnered more respect here had you just admitted you took a shot at a free trip as opposed to you trying to rub it in everyone's face about your lavish lifestyle.

**thetrinity** · 08-09-17, 08:06 AM

Actually more irritating that a guy joins 2 weeks before the raffle and wins it as non-pro

Well, as long as we're talking about respect, you'd look like much less of a jackass if you didn't talk mad shit about Johnny Manziel behind his back and then kiss his ass to get a selfie with him.

**Goatman** · 08-09-17, 08:28 AM

And I don't know how you got so confused Philly guy. I paid for the entire $715 round trip, left my travel credit card at a bar in Mexico City the day before I left for CR, checked in with my debit card and paid hundreds of dollars in expenses while there, thinking that I'd get the reimbursement Saturday. I never claimed to live a lavish lifestyle. I make less than $25K per year online but still manage to fully fund my Roth IRA each year. My lifestyle is more fulfilling and my quality of life is much greater than when I was making 6 figures selling insurance, but lavish it certainly is not.

**JAKEPEAVY21** · 08-09-17, 08:35 AM

glad you got home goater

what city in Mexico do you live in?

how did you find SBR?

My 1st thought is glad you're following the forum.

Weird you're taking shots here when you're the one who made this thread as you couldn't look more like a broke dick Fuk if you tried. Carry on though

Thanks Jake. I live in San Miguel de Allende. Found SBR by stumbling on Pete's show.

Look man, I'll admit to being a bonehead for leaving my card at a bar and for not having the new one sent to CR. It was also dumb to leave my other two cards at home but I never use them and didn't think I'd need them. The blame is on me, fair enough. I just wanted to straighten out the facts. I frankly took offense to your interpretation of events and took a shot back at you. Apologies.

Goater relax. This isn't real life. Glad you made it home.

**gauchojake** · 08-09-17, 09:21 AM

Goater go PRO and soon enough you'll be bleeding SBR dry for freebies just like Philly guy! Salud Pal!

**RoyBacon** · 08-09-17, 09:23 AM

You left 6 figures to make $25k?

Mexicans killing themselves to work here illegally for $12k. Doesn't seem to add up.

Glad it all worked out.
