The rickshaw puller, when he picked you up, he asked for 100tk=1$, but after he dropped off, you asked him to 100tk 200tk, and eventually, you paid 500tk.

Mr Brad welcome to Bangladesh and thanks for your visit in Bangladesh i really appreciate that people like u nowadays Very often comes to visit Dhaka Bangladesh😊 8 days ago i saw your first vdo n i was waited for this Gulshan part but unfortunately you missed some good sites to see and record in Gulshan banani area and whoever u talked mostly they don't know English except the guy paid for fried rice, why dont you taking any local assistant to guide you so you could have done very good vdo if you ask for assistance im sure many people will be ready to Assist you without any payment,and before you talked someone u must understand they understand and speak English or not I noticed mostly you tallked to those people who don't know English so before you start talking someone make sure you find the right one who knows english to communicate u,and the best part is you didn't forget to buy something for your mom I'm pretty sure your mom will be so happy to have that pearl jewellery😊 Best wishes, watching from Paris France

The first rickshaw puller stated that this was the Gulshan-1. Second, Rickshawala just duped you. Look at his idiotic expression at 7:05 when you asked him whether this was the Gulshan -1. He simply gave you a ride and brought you back to your previous location and charged you 500tk. Damn it, when you live below the poverty line, you have to do whatever it takes. His family is going to eat well tonight. And thanks for being such a gentleman. Love from BD.

Hi Brad a bicycle has two wheels but the ones you ride in are called rickshaws. Remember everyone on the street does not understand or speak English. If they ask " you kanty " they mean your country? The curly orange coloured sweet is known as a Jelabi and you need to say MOJA if it is delicious. Brad, you must be super rich because your money is flowing like water. Please avoid giving the sellers and drivers the impression that every foreigner is rich. You do not seem to bargain at all and pay over ad above asking prices. Bangladesh is a country where you bargain normally offering 1/3 of the quoted price for starters and then maybe increasing in small stages. No doubt you have been well ripped off.

Hi brad, love your videos. One thing I want to say though, please don't pay people more than the worth of the services they provide. This will impact others negatively later on. They will expect other tourists to pay more and then behave badly if they don't. Some people are on tighter budgets so it might be detrimental for them if they are being charged more.

Bro i know that 200 is not so much money for you but this rickshaw pullar of gulshan banani are a scam machine. They charge as much they can , though everyone thinks they are poor but in this area they earn more than a jr.executive in a month . So try to give the proper fare to the rickshaw puller or you can also help the really needy beggers or blind people.
