What you experienced is "bait and switch".

Women have been doing this to men for 1000s of years. This is the formula:
- females create a social system where men feel the need to give gifts to females, in the *hope* of gaining sexual access
- a man meets a woman, and buys a gift (in your case, a drink at a bar)
- the woman extracts more and more out of the man, catering to the *hope* that he will gain sexual access
- she lures him into a slave contract (today know as marriage) where the man is obligated to support her

Men. Wake up and smell the coffee!

It is well known that teacher salaries in the Caribbean are low, as many will accept contracts to enjoy the good weather.

One school I am looking at seems to have a high turnover of teachers - 25% this year alone.
What about the cost of living? Just how expensive is it? Does ANYONE save money when working in the Caribbean?

Any info helpful.
