I'm leaving for Namibia in exactly 5 weeks. For 10 days, I fully expect to tip $500 to the PH. I don't care who you are, thats a helluva tip. Keep in mind the word TIP. At some point it gets ridiculous.

That's also about what I tipped 2 years ago on a B&C goat for the same length of time, with hell and gone more physical exertion on the part of my guide/outfitter. The only difference was, since this was the outfitter, he was also paid a fair wage.

Keep in mind the kind of labor you must perform, either mental or physical, for the same kind of money. It becomes pretty easy after that. Hold your head up. If you're an honest guy, it will be OK.
