You guys have some work to do on the other thread about the guy that passed away too... It wasnt me..but you must have been sleeping because there was similar stuff on there for a few days. (actually still on there) Anyway, I learned my lesson, even if I see a guy tear a puppy apart with a chain saw in front of my eyes and hes a member of this form..I wont say anything.. I see. Nothing!I hear Nothing! I know nothing! Soy una Tomba!! If you see somebody trying to tear a puppy apart, it might be more helpful if you actually tried to stop him, instead of posting about it on here. Just a thoughtl

Getting back to the first message in this thread, I believe this "Mitch" is the same Canadian Mitch who owned the penthouse apt. in Cartagena for the last 10 years or so. This one: www.penthouse.co/Mitch was pretty infamous in Cartagena. Difficult personality. He was also the guy that made up the phrase "No Money Guy" (NMG) on PBH a few years ago. Indeed, RIP, Mitch.

Stayed there 9 years ago. Great vacation. The apartment seemed a little expensive at $300/night back then (for Colombia). I bet it's a bit more now. Thought about buying an apartment in Cartagena back then as well, but apparently it was all in a "big bubble" and was bound to implode any time...

This one: www.penthouse.co/Mitch was pretty infamous in Cartagena. Difficult personality. He was also the guy that made up the phrase "No Money Guy" (NMG) on PBH a few years ago. Indeed, RIP, Mitch. That was a brilliant phrase, i remember when he made it up on PBH. It took me over an hour to find on the internet, but here is Mitch's take on "No Money Guys" as he describes them: NMG = No Money Guy
No Money Guys are pretty easy to identify. You can usually find them bragging about the hotel they found for $7 and the hooker they found for $5. The fact that both the hotel and the hooker are infested with ticks is irrelevant because they got themselves a bargain. Often NMGs will talk about the “free” encounter they had but normally forget to mention the girl looked like Oprah.
No Money Guys love to give out free business advise to people they do not know especially when that advise relates to things they cannot afford. The irony is that if the NMGs had any business skills then they would have money, and therefore no longer be NMGs. One should be very careful when reading advice from a NMG unless you too want to become a NMG. Nothing can make you become a NGM faster than taking business advice from a NMG.
No Money Guys hate expensive hotels because they are afraid the owners might make money. They think everyone in the world should also be a NMG. When they see someone successful it really pisses them off since it makes it so obvious that they are NMGs.
No Money Guys like to use “cool” Internet names to describe themselves. If you see a name like “winner”, “IamKing” “bigdick” or “karateman” then you can almost be certain it is a NMG. They are like the fat girl who uses “sexy69” as her alias.
No Money Guys have a lot of time to post criticism on the Internet since they have no money to go out and get laid. Guys with money spend their time in Colombia getting laid so they have no time to post about how expensive hotels are.
No Money Guys often like to take photographs every time they ejaculate. Photographic evidence is needed so the NMGs can remember exactly how they spent their money even if it was just $5.00.
No Money Guys are not fun to hang out with because they are always talking about the thing they do not have, viz; money. When hanging out with a NMG you will often hear things like “Man, that beer was $2.00, what a rip-off” or “You paid how much? You got ripped off” or “Holy shit that is expensive, I only paid…..” People with money cannot spend more than 10 minutes with a NMG because the constant references to money gives normal people headaches.
No Money Guys can be found at night time walking around the streets of San Diego trying to negotiate with street girls. If the poor hungry girl asks for $20.00 then the NMG will immediately run to the nearest computer to post a warning that the prices are “going through the roof!” and better be careful since they are asking “gringo prices now”. However, if the poor hungry girl asks for $10.00 then the NMG will post about what a “sweetheart” he found who did not charge extra for anal because “she really liked me”.
No Money Guys are always trying to find a scam so they can live in places like Colombia with little or no money. Once upon a time, in a country not so far away, there were a couple of “brothers” who gave everyone 3% a month return on their “investment”. Several NMGs told me that I should also invest in the brothers. When the beer came out my nostrils from laughing too hard the NMGs usually became very angry before explaining how I “did not know how things worked down here”. Several of the same NMGs are now in Colombia minus the money they “invested”.
No Money Guys always have negative things to say about almost everything. When someone buys a really nice apartment a MNG will say “I would never buy something like that because [insert lame excuse here].” When someone buys a nice car a NMG will say “I would never buy something like that because [insert other lame excuse here]. The fact of the matter is the NMG would never buy either because he has no f@0#@g money to buy anything.
No Money Guys spoil the party. If you want to go for diner at Parque Lleras it is too expensive for them. If they do come they will complain all night about the price of the food and explain how the owners are “screwing us”. If you want to call some girls they will whine about the taxi fair. Once the girls arrive they will try to talk them down to a price that pisses off the girls. Once the girls are pissed then the night is f***ed. Thank you NMG.
No Money Guys always have invisible rich friends. You will never meet the friend but you will often hear about how the NMG’s friend has a better [insert anything here] than you do. “Oh, sure, that is a nice XXXX but my friend has a much nicer one.” “Yep…yep…your car only goes 166mph but I once saw a car that went 195mph.” “My friend once paid a girl $500.” “My friend would never stay in a dump like where you live……yada, yada, yada.”
No Money Guys have always been to better places compared to where you have been. They always know about the place where thousands of beautiful girls just lined up to give their pussy away for free to any gringo. NMGs usually tell you about this “other” place in between complaining about where they presently are. When you ask them why they do not go back to the “other” place they get mad. The fact is when they are at the “other” place they complain exactly the same and talk about how they know somewhere else that is better.

Mitchell Tindale was 'Mitch' on PBH. He organised/hosted a PBH get-together in Medellin. He was in his 40's. He was PepeA on PBH at one point in time. That is how I knew him. According to my sources there was indeed some unusual circumstances leading up to his death. He lived in his boutique hotel in Medellin. Not an easy guy to get to know by any means, he did not have many close friends here in Colombia or anywhere else I would imagine. RIP Mitch

I was Mitch's friend 30 years ago. I wish I stayed in touch with him. He was cool guy then. But he loved Colombia and its people. Anyone who knew him, I would love to hear any stories about him from anyone who actually knew him

Well it's been a long time since I seen him. A lot can happen in that time. I work with a few people from Colombia and they are good people. But you get your good and bad no matter where you're from. Either way Mitch was a friend. Too young to die. R.I.P. Bro
And it's obvious you knew him. Is there anything you can tell me about him. Thanks

thefro I do not think anybody will give you information. You said, you were a friend of him, but you did`t had any contact with him in 30 years, so why do you have interest now? Nobody knows you here in the forum.

Its interesting to read about how the guy -even though he had a business and was a long time resident - bitched about Colombia and its people. - possibly he would have been unhappy anywhere. I avoid expats who complain about their adopted home( too much) - I realize no where is paradise or perfect - but never understood, if you don't like the place why stay? Its not the homeland - and obviously they had the means to relocate to Colombia so I assume they would have the means to leave.
Maybe he did not want to go back to Canada - but there are a lot of other alternatives out there.
I would bet that most expats who move to Colombia because they are unhappy at home - are unhappy in Colombia also, not a country issue more of a personality one.

I also agree with jabberwocky. He sounds like a buddy of mine in the U.S. that is unhappy with just about everything. For example, no matter what restaurant we went to he would find something to complain about - even in the top restaurants. A glass is half-empty type of person.

From reading this NMG text, one can tell the guy is owning a hotel and catering hookers.

thats's my point - if one is unhappy - why not leave, I guess this guy was tied to his property, I don't think everyone should be happy in Colombia, first you could make a bad decision about where in Colombia - maybe you are unhappy in Medellin but would be lovin life in Cartagena or Santa Marta - or possibly Uruguay or Brazil would be a better choice - if unhappy - try somewhere else - life is too short to stay somewhere you dislike - unless it comes with a very good paying job

TheBro- I knew Mitch for a brief time after he arrived in Cartagena in 2004 and can tell you some things about his life during that time. Unfortunately, most if it will not be positive. Please note that I didn't see him after 2006 or so. Mitch originally came to Colombia because he had become disillusioned with living in the Dominican Republic. He was desperately trying to sell his "mansion" (as he called it) in the DR so that he could buy a place in Cartagena (which he eventually did). He seemed pretty cool at first. He did have a decent sense of humor and liked 80s heavy metal music, as I did but he quickly struck me as one of those guys who could leave a good first impression on someone but eventually you realize how complicated, negative, and racist he was. Once you got to know him, he would often go off on rants about how horrible Canada is or in regards to anyone who had crossed him (or about any perceived slights from anyone). Mitch could really hold a grudge and could be very insulting to practically anyone (especially when he was drinking, which was nightly from what I could tell at the time).
Mitch considered himself "above" anyone who had to work a normal job for a living; basically, you were inferior because you weren't as smart (fortunate) as he was. He apparently started some sort of ISP in Canada and then sold it for big bucks at a relatively young age. He struck me as extremely insecure and the only thing that made him feel special was the fact that he was relatively wealthy. As a result, he used to flaunt his wealth- buying his so-called "penthouse," buying a Porsche and constantly driving it around Boca Grande/Laguito, and generally reminding anyone who would listen that he was well off or had more money than you. Of course, this turned off most people who came into contact with him. He was such a bitter guy I eventually just avoided him altogether.
A couple of quick stories about Mitch- About a year after he moved to Cartagena, he met this girl from Barranquilla who couldn't have been older than 19 or 20 and hired her to be his "asistente." I swear to God he would introduce her as this even though she lived with him in Playa Del Mar (before he started renting it out) and was clearly in a physical relationship with her. Anyway, he would always treat her like crap (almost like a slave) and it was just hard to watch. Well, fast forward 2 years later and apparently Mitch had no idea that Colombia has a 2 year "common law marriage" law and the exact DAY she moved in 2 years prior, she sued him. lol I think he ended up just giving her a payoff just to go away but I remember his pride was pretty hurt for being outsmarted by someone so "below" his status. From what I understand, most expats who were there at the time started shunning him.
Mitch also had massive liposuction surgery during that time. He was very overweight and I guess wanted to take a short-cut to look better. The thing is after he had the surgery, he didn't bother to start exercising, or to start eating healthy, and he would continue to down a bottle of rum a night. So he quickly packed back on the pounds and then some. It was really a shame as I remember him being incredibly sore from the surgery for weeks after, only to pack the pounds right back on.
I do find it ironic that Mitch wouldn't allow mongers in his Medellin hotel because pretty much the only girls he associated with in Cartagena were hookers.
I can't say that I was friends with Mitch at the end but I do hope he's at peace now. You always hope that a troubled soul like Mitch will find some way to get it together and find happiness. It sounds like his body just finally gave out as he drank a lot and was overweight. I was surprised to hear about the pills in the news story.

"ask some of my associates on here about my residence" ego stroke much? your example above is one that most readers here and common folk cannot relate to nor be a part of. kudos to you for being a card carrying member of colombia's elite. you sound like a real humble guy. my contact at a publicly traded private equity firm and global assets management group tells me that the investment landscape here is challenging. this is coming from a company that manages 20 billion in assets, including assets on its balance sheet and fee earning assets under management by affiliated managers, with $77 billion of total assets under management (including levered assets). 3 years in and they have passed on everything.

BTW, he's posted pictures of his residence on other boards and they were not very impressive other than the massive power lines than are literally on top of his porch. What really baffles me is why would anyone brag about assets when they live in Colombia- just inviting a disaster. Just my humble opinion.

Yes, and who are you two wannabees, I can back up what I write. I sold my OWN NASDAQ traded company when I came to Colombia and brought my nest egg with me, what did you bring besides an appetite. Living in some rented hovel and downtalking something you know nothing about. I have done well in Colombia BECAUSE as I said I utilized what she offered not like you Backpackers. I would do a littl3e investigation before shooting off your mouths. I could buy and sell both of you 10 times over.

"people who actually have money. 99.999% had no interest in letting others know what they had" - spot on.
"Yes, and who are you two wannabees, I can back up what I write. I sold my OWN NASDAQ traded company when I came to Colombia and brought my nest egg with me, what did you bring besides an appetite" - classic inferiority complex. take some of that money and find a therapist. nobody here cares how much money you have pops.
"Living in some rented hovel and downtalking something you know nothing about" - quite the opposite actually and i believe my connections thwart your paltry 16 million dollar 'agricultural investment' by about 30 billion. you bragged about everything else but the product. i am betting it is palm oil or something else that has a negative impact on the environment.
"I would do a littl3e investigation before shooting off your mouths" - i'm not looking for investments here, so could care less. however, i aware of boots on the ground that are investigating opportunities in colombia. they are a professional lot with global coverage and i am betting their due diligence protocol is about as high level as it gets.
"I could buy and sell both of you 10 times over" - again, classic inferiority complex statement.

Inferiority complex and behavior:
Over compensation: One of the most famous defense mechanisms people use to hide their inferiority feelings is to act superior. Not only will those people act as if they are superior to others but they will also devalue anybody who doesn't treat them as if they were superior. By doing so they can protect their ego by considering anybody who doesn't think that they are superior worthless!!
Success and inferiority: Because those people believe that there is something wrong with them they build walls around them that prevents people from seeing their imaginary flaws. Such barriers can be outstanding performance, impressive success stories, fame, power...etc. The more the person builds these barriers the less likely someone will question his competence. Its as if that person is trying to win the race and be the first so that he doesn't give the chance to people to examine his flaws, after all if he is extremely successful and brilliant who will ever think that he is inferior? (see Ambitious people)
Excessive anxiety: when the person who feels inferior doesn't manage to build the barriers i talked about he uses another mechanism which is excessive anxiety. Without being aware, the subconscious mind of the person makes him become anxious whenever he encounters people who might remind him of this inferiority. By doing so the subconscious mind makes sure that the person will avoid those who make him feel inferior!! So fear of public speaking, fear of approaching the opposite sex and stage fright can sometimes be symptoms of inferiority
Oversensitivity to criticism: In the Solid Self confidence program i said that people with inferiority complex have a real hard time dealing with criticism. We all hate criticism but for a person who feels inferior criticism is considered a successful attempt in discovering his real flaws and that's why he can never handle them. The person who feels inferior spends a considerable amount of time building walls to hide his imaginary flaws and that's why he feels really bad whenever someone criticizes him
Excessive showing off: Because the person feels inferior he wants to make others believe that he is worthy and that's why he shows off. The reason for excessive showing off is that the person assumes that everybody is looking down on him and thus he has to do a counter action to improve his perceived image
Devaluing others: whenever i give a lecture anywhere i always find a person who knows nothing but insists on trying to prove me wrong. Usually an inferior person will be threatened whenever he considers anybody superior to him and in such a case the best defense mechanism he thinks about is trying to devalue that superior person at any cost.
Do you feel inferior?
