Just finished watching the last episode of Before the 90 days…and I really think Gino needs a simple, ‘down-home’ girl, and not a lavish Jasmine. They’re spending habits are so different, it’s bound to cause problems. She has extravagant taste and immediately wants to change everything in his home, and he doesn’t have the money for it. Meanwhile, she spent $10,000 of his money on a butt-lift? She’s not frugal at al and just wants what she wants. I don’t see this going well. They’re plenty of humble girls in the U.S who would be perfectly fine with Gino’s kitchen, bedroom etcc

    Women like Jazmine are a dime a dozen in Panama. Few women I have dated here have asked me for plastic surgery. This is when I know they can fuck off.

    I think Gino has wayyyyy more money than what he leads on. He’s been an automotive engineer for 30+ years for (I’m guessing Ford since he has a Ford explorer) so he should be making close to 100k, said he has over 600k in investments, he lives in an affordable condo, the cost of living in Canton is not high, he buys tv dinners and canned foods, has old furniture/decorations etc. The guy is cheap.

    Since their first season he listed things he paid for with her hair extensions and fillers or whatever. He knew what he was getting into. He’ll act like it’s a big deal but always cave in because he wants to say he has a hot girlfriend/wife.

      My great uncle was like that - except not creepy and he dressed better. He served in the military and then had a very good paying career with General Dynamics. Lived modestly, was always saving vs spending, had some solid investments etc. When he passed away in 2018, we (family) were shocked at just how much $$ he had squirreled away.

        Gino probably would too if he wasn’t into sugar babies. A lot of people have money by living frugally and I’m sure he was doing great. But she will drain him and he will let her until it’s all gone and she leaves him.

      He should be making close to double that as a 30 year engineer. He pays minimal for expenses including car, and has as you have pointed out no large expenses we can see, minus Jasmine and travel/legal expenses to get her here. The big three also have great health coverage that is low cost etc so…

      Also don’t believe he quit. Most likely took advantage of generous LOA policy and still has protected job to return to unless he had opportunity for buy out.

    Jasmine’ BBL was stupid and is sure to cause drama. Overall, I would not want to be married to her!

    With that said, that house was a mess and totally unacceptable! He didn’t even make the bed or clean the toilet (or flush)! If he paid a cleaning service $200, Jasmine would still be asking for tweaks here and there, but when she walked into a dumpster, she rightfully freaked out!

    Again - not a big Jasmine fan but Gino did this to himself!

      I don’t understand why he quit his job though. They’re never going to be able to afford the paperwork now that he’s quit his job.

        I think that was a genius move. Jasmine is setting herself up to get her way everytime because she has “sacrificed everything to get to the usa” (even though she’s the one that demanded it). Now he can talk about how he sacrificed his job for her

        I honestly wonder if the quitting his job is just a tv thing and if he’s really apart of the UAW strike that’s been going on for months now. But due to not wanting to get into the politics of the strike they just told him to say he quit instead of his industry is striking

          Isn’t he an automotive engineer or something?

          I would never habe pegged him being a creative - he’s so utterly dull and soulless that he feels practically AI-generated.

            Yes which makes this quitting thing make me believe even more that he is on strike. There’s only so many manufacturing sites still in Michigan that getting hired back on to probably only one of three employers in your state nearby seems like a fools errand.

    If you want to be Gino and buy a hot younger wife from a foreign country, expect to pay. Of course there will be drama lol, that’s the entire premise of the show!

    Part of me thinks this is his kink/turn on

    He met her on a “sugar baby” site (guys who WANT to pay for women)

    Any other time I would say her behavior is disgusting, but this is exactly what he was looking for. Don’t go on a Sugarbaby website if you’re cheap

    He should at least let her redo that bedroom -

    It’s a more personal space, and personally, I would want to feel like the newly decorated space is “OURS” - not just his.

    I agree he could’ve cleaned up - at least changed the sheets and flushed the toilet! But even so, they’re incompatible. Not to mention the sexual incompatiblity

    It’s so weird how people mistake a person putting up with them for actual chemistry. She’s not a bad person and everyone has their own preferences but there are millions of quiet, humble, simple nerds who Gino could have real love and chemistry with but he chooses someone from another country who wants to be bathed in luxury (unlike him), who freaks out and screams (unlike him), who cares about aesthetics way more than he does, who is used to (and probably only respects) handsome, masculine, charmingmen who are dying to f her. It’s bizarre. And it seems like they don’t even have good intimacy (unless she started getting into golden showers which, she already seems to love shitting on him, so you never know).
