Maybe I’m showing my age, but for potential houseboys to want you to send them money upfront seems sketchy to me. I’ve also noticed it on Grindr as well. The young ones always want money sent to them. I don’t send but wandering if anyone else has some perspective.

Yes, times have changed but sorry to say, not for the better.  It used to be that you could trust 9 out of 10 boys who responded to an ad.  Now it's just the opposite.  It's really sad that we have to be this way, but if not, it's like the old adage says...a fool and his money are soon parted.

 

If you are interested, you could search and find our story in the archives.  To summarize, over the past 35 years we have had 4 long (2+ years) term houseboys.  One stayed with us for 5 years while getting his MBA.  We have had a few short term houseboys, but we made an arrangement upfront with each of them.  A few just wanted to stay 3-6 month to get back on their feet, etc.  We have never been without a houseboy this long before, but we have not found a match in the last three years. 

 

We're not saying that there are not any honest, hardworking boys on this site.  We have just not had the perfect (or near perfect) match yet.  It is very surprising that not many boys actually want to move to the Daytona Beach area...go figure.

 

All the best in your search.
