There are no jobs, there is no money, and there isn't a way to make any. Look around, the jobs are few and many have made their way into the drug trade to live. Sadly
Sad indeed, especially such a beautiful place. Reminds me of Suriname (where I'm originally from), where living could be idyllic, but corruption making life more and more intolerable.
Call me stupid, but, I normally pay what they ask, sometimes even giving a little extra.
I haven't traveled much (yet), but when I watch videos of people bargaining on YT in poorer countries, I can't imagine myself doing that. The only thing is, I don't like markets where they put a price on their items and goods. I want to know what you ask and I'll compare the prices to the other stalls.
Here's the link to my MarketFriday post:

I know you meant to say you want the prices posted. I want the prices posted also, I don't want to keep asking what the price is. If they aren't changing the price for different people, why are they not posting the prices? It allows me to believe that I can compare prices from vendor to vendor without having to ask each one.
Thank you for dropping by and leaving your link.
#MarketFriday loves you.
Yeah, forgot to put "...don't post the prices".
That's my same reasoning and I know that in certain countries they expect you to haggle for a price that both party's can agree on, but it's not what I'm used to and wouldn't know how.
Hey, I was partly away from Hive for some time, which is why I'm now getting on track with comments.
Hope you and yours are doing well.
