Turkish Economic Crisis
08-10-2018, 10:54 AM
Turkey's economy is in dire straits, the Lira has plunged a further 20% since our main man Trump imposed tariffs on steel and allah-minium.
Fantastic news for those of us in Eastern Europe, it should lead to less sex tourists.
Turkey has become very attractive as a tourist destination, a fraction of the price of places like Greece and Cyprus, and should attract more Russian and Ukrainian women now.
Go forth and conquer

Also big for medical tourism. If anyone needs a procedure can literally kill two birds with a stone by getting it done for cheap in Turkey and squeeze a few days of holidays + game in.

Paging
Tyrion, he might find this thread useful.
Tell them too much, they wouldn't understand; tell them what they know, they would yawn.
They have to move up by responding to challenges, not too easy not too hard, until they paused at what they always think is the end of the road for all time instead of a momentary break in an endless upward spiral

This is not very good news for us, as they will buy less goods from us since euro appreciated insanely.
I'm going to go to Estonia, Sweden and then Turkey for business as I planned before, then off to Los Angeles. I have 7 Italian restaurant in Istanbul that buy goods from my dad's company, I'm talking to them on whatsapp today and they are saying, US is orchestrating another coup or big riot against Turkish government. They were so tensed on whatsapp call today.

So what's the gen on gaming Turkish women, then? From the hordes of horny Turkish guys that descend on eastern Europe like a plague of locusts during the summer, I assume the local girls can't be all that and a bag of chips.

All we know that they are one of the most thirstiest nations in the world. Due to the increasing costs of travelling abroad, more Turkish (including Kurds) are going to choose to stay at their home country. That means gaming in Turkey will be twice as difficult. All of them will be concentrating on their home country, competition will be extreme so there’s no point of gaming and wasting time in Turkey.

I believe as men we need to have some human values, if not having human qualities then at least having an impartial reasoning. We all on this forum share an immoderate interest for women...however feeling happy that an economic crisis is impacting millions of people just because some creepy dudes from that country will travel less and that it might hypothetically and marginally impact my success rate is a feeling I am glad I will never experience.

@Lino yea the dissonance is very strong here. Here, I'll confirm to you: Turkey collapsing will bring a much bigger number of thirsty guys to Europe. Guys who are right now working on Turkey because of what was a relatively good and growing economy.
Also the economy is collpasing because of the private sector not Recep. Actually the turkish government finances are in order. The private sector was very over-leveraged and right now the bubble is coming down.

The lira has devalued but it can't be officially called an economic crisis yet, Turkey is not the same country it was 20 years ago, it is more integrated in the international market than ever. If a crisis breaks out rest assured it will spread to Europe, Turkish banks owe $80 billion to Spanish banks, in the event of a default shit will get nasty.
Spain and Italy will be affected, it might trigger a domino effect. I don't think auntie Merkel will bail out Spain this time.

80 billion $ is nothing. It costs 35 bio. $ the Germans per year to house the 2 mio. rapefugees in the last years. The EU will simply spread the pain around write off some 30 bio. $ if at all. No one cares if Turkey collapses unless they send in another 2 mio. enrichers. That would cost Europe more than a depression in Turkey.

What's this thirst thing coming from? I've heard a lot about people commenting about Italian guys and how we're so thirsty too
I mean, do you guys want us to become average American guy who are sloppy with women?

This makes me a bit nervous not sure if I should be. I am traveling to Russia in a few days and I have a stopover in Istanbul, flying Turkish airlines. Do you Turkey experts think this is a problem? I don't believe so but I should ask.
Then I am going to Moscow, where Trump has imposed more economic sanctions. Perfect timing. I guess I should not wear my jacket with the American flag on it. lol

Perhaps you haven't been to places where Turkish guys are an absolute nuisance, in many EE countres they are.
Those of us who are going on holiday to Turkey are doing the country a favour, our foreign currency will help to make Turkey great again.

Devaluation of the lira will only bring in more arabs, we need European tourists not Arabs. Europeans will continue to stay out of the country because of the political climate/negative image : (

Trump's aggressive tweets against China, Germany and Turkey could backfire on US ecoomy and currency because firstly, economic protectionist policies are against liberalism which made US great. the second, all know that aggression comes from insecurity and the third, what does not kill something, make it stronger.
