Are ANY of the houseboys real?

[mjamien]

I am beginning to wonder if any of the houseboys on this or any other site are real.  I have contacted a few, and they all wanted money in advance without verification of any sort. They say exactly what they know you want to hear, but then it becomes clear that is it a money grab scam.   

I would really like to find a houseboy that needed a place to stay and did not want money in advance. There is only one that I thought may have been legit, but then he stopped talking to me. 

Some say they want a salary. I have never had a houseboy and I do not know what to expect to pay a houseboy.

Just be very careful with the lads here AND on the Silver Daddies website. I have a line in my profile that states thet while I can be generous to friends, any "generosity" before a face to face meet is a non-starter.  

Ditto for reddit r/GayYoungOldDating  & r/houseboypersonals

Hey,  thanks for the reply. I am somewhat new to this, so perhaps you can enlighten me a bit.   

Do real houseboys ask for money before they come to stay with you?

You mentioned compensation. And I agree. But if you are providing room and board and all that goes with living in a place, what do houseboys expect in addition.  There was a boy I was talking to that said his current master paid him $100 per month.  There was also another that wanted $6000 to pay off bills, before he could come.

SInce you are a legit houseboy, what is a fair offering for a houseboy, in addition to room and board.  You can give me a weekly, monthly, or annual figure. At least then I would know if I can afford to keep looking for a boy. I cannot afford a lot, or I would pay a lot.

Does a houseboy expect the new employer or person hiring to get him there, or should a real houseboy be able to get to the location on his own?

Thanks, 

 

Mike

We have had 3 long successful term Houseboys and while every situation and agreement is different I pay what the national average is listed for an Au Pair.  Here in the US it's roughly $200 per week, then give them room/board and cover any travel that they do with us or meals out. We do not cover phone expenses or auto expenses.  Any food request we are usually happy to accommodate. 

When meeting someone for the first time we will not pay any money up front but we will reimburse them for travel to us.  We do this because of all of the scammers.  

ABSOLUTELY NO MONEY BEFORE WE MEET THEM!  I tell everyone one of them this upfront and at some point most of them ask for money.  They love to ask to pay for a ticket then send them money for incidentals like meals even when they are only an hour away.  It's all a big scam and this site in particular has gotten very very bad.  There is a lack of Moderation.  

Good Luck
