"Let's go hooking now, everybody hooking now ..."

[void()]

On my morning coffee trek, televised news was rambling about
prostitutes. Allegedly one was getting $2,000 to $5,000 an
hour. Even as unskilled labor, I should be able to make more
than such a wage.

I personally have no argument against prostitution. My point
is that in most areas in the U.S. it is illegal. So, one can
earn up to $20,000 in four hours time by breaking the law?
Gee, not a damn thing skewed at all in that picture, huh?

The second point I have, damn, what whore is worth 2-5 grand
an hour? Do they offer platinum encased blow jobs, diamond
and jade filled orgasms? C'mon f---ing is f---ing. It might
be good but if you have to shell out that much, it should
tell you something.

Think I will start my own brothel and earn a fifteen percent
keep off those whom work. I would put in five percent for a
medical and expenses pool. Two and half percent would go to
the kill and steal guilds respectively. That would give me a
five percent cut as profit.

If I had to come up with that kind of money to get laid, somebody WILL be making my house payment this month!!

lol void, you are talking about high class ladies, very professional ladies that cater to clients that want top quality ladies that are well versed in more than just sex.....

you are paying for more than the sex, you are paying for looks, style, flair, discretion and yes even a lady that you can have on your arm at a social gathering..... now I am not sure about the usa, but a lady in kmart clothing, is not going to quite cut it...... so you are talking about professional escorts, not pros


think of it like business, you will not get a CEO for $7 a hour, and many manual labourers would be fucked in the board room

The girls down Leith may take a fiver off ya, Duckie.. but only if u were buying them a lil drinkie in the pub... ifya want a short time multiply it by 10 and then some... and they are owt but high class ladies of the night...

Have one m8 is a professional escort tho... started with an agency but now has her own list of clients.. she could buy our house several times over but at a grand+ for a few hours work its not so surprising.. an I get green wiv envy at the quality an gorgeness of her clothes, shoes an perfumerie.. an mine cost enuff... she takes girl clients 2 but gorge tho she is an as well paid as I am... even if I wanted 2.. I cudnt afford 2 many hours of 'er time....

I can understand that to a point. Then another point chimes in and says they damn well
better be ladies whom have skin of satin feeling gold. Because ultimately, f---ing is
still f---king.

And no, manual laborers are not f---ed in the board room, they are just
f---ed anywhere and any time. My point also in needing to pay that much to get f---ed,
what you can't get it free? You have to pay $2,000 or more an hour for f---ing, you
must be one fugley f---er in some way.

Hooking is illegal, too. But you can do it and get $2,000+ an hour, more power to you.
Guess the adage that crime doesn't pay is completely wrong, it pays top f---ing dollar.

Four hours of work and you can afford an hours worth of the best defense lawyer to
get you off, more work, more ante for the lawyer and profit for you. No, our system
isn't f---ed at all. No way. I'm just a lunatic paranoidal conspiracy freak who sees things
all f---ed up. "Yeahsureright"

1) Been burning the red light outside my door for ages. No takers unfortunately, even offering OAP discount. Even loss leaders are a disappointment. It must be the arse stubble and the crusty beard.

2) Should make it legal and tax it (above certain threshold).

3) Anyone seen that creepy film "Sleeping Beauty"?

[Gearbox]

If someone is daft or desperate enough to pay 1000's for sex&company then there'll be those who charge it.:bigrin:

I've been offered £40 to prostitute my living room. Some bloke wants to jump on balloons in it, with no sex involved nor participation on my part.LOL. Pop away!! Pop away!!:tongue:

Having grown up in military towns around the world where prostitution is always replete, I can relate. In one such particular town, I wound up driving a taxi during the graveyard shift after my divorce and transported many of them to their "johns." I eventually befriended one, very pretty, lithe & black. We actually shared nights off as if we were dating. The inevitable occurred, we had sex and she committed the cardinal sin of a prostitute, she kissed me afterwards.

[innaminka]

During Uni I was reasonably friendly with a girl who was a part time prostitute during her 2nd year.
She worked in a brothel 3 nights a week, I think she averaged 3 "clients" a night - We drifted apart in 3rd year.
She was quite open about it.
It paid her rent and living expenses and the rudimentary tuition fees.

She had no qualms about it. She said it beat waiting on tables, which I was doing. More enjoyable and paid better.
(Certainly paid better, but more enjoyable???? I couldn't have done it!)

I have written of it before, but my best friend seriously thought of it while at university... luckily for her she didn't have to in the end.. but it is not so uncommon and with economic misery being heaped upon us in spades, increasing numbers particularly of poorer female students are turning to prostitution to help makes ends meet to help them through their studies.. speaking to a former tutor of mine a few months back, she has heard that while still far more rare, it is apparently not unknown amongst the male student population also.. and like u Inna.. it isn't something I could have done..

[æonpax]

The old adage, "you get what you pay for" applies here. Drug addict Suzy down by the liquor store, may turn you a trick for as little as $10 to $15 or you can go to Madam Chantel who will get you a suitable escort for you high society event or business meeting for as little as $600 a night. Extra's have to be negotiated with your "date".

Then there are your middle to long term Mistresses, some whom are hidden, many whom are part of the family and perform various roles such as a nanny, teacher, housemaid and/or surrogate.

Providing you have the wealth; something for everyone.

Yes, I understand that. Truly, I do. I can even accept it. It is what is and unlikely my dislike of it will change it.
That doesn't mean I am forbidden from disliking such a notion. Also doesn't mean I can not think such a notion
has really screwed our world up. And such was the intent of my commentary upon the matter, if it was not in
fact clear.

"Hey, I think this sort of idea has screwed our world up." That and an astonishment of the cost of a good
courtesean now. Probably my odd way of thinking showing, believing one should not need to pay for sex.
And yes, I know, even married folks do in their own way with their spouses. A classic ancedote of a
husband putting up shelves to get laid comes to mind, or even a wife setting up a husband's cigars
for his return home after a day of work in order to get laid.

It was something which caught my attention at the start of the day. Normally, I am not quite
functional beyond being a coffee zombie at that point. The television was turned up at a loud
volume and someone had a news program on. What passes for news is kind of silly any more,
I think yet that is a horse of another color.

In a nearby town,there is a popular strip-club. At some point, some of the most popular dancers emerging were co-eds, commuting from another,nearby university town and it's common knowledge some of these hot ladies will go beyond lap-dances.

Hey Void? If you open a good Brothel, I'll be one of your "Phone Sex Operators" lol With this "Warm enough to melt butter in a dish" voice and slight Southern inflection, I might bring ya in some good dough..lol.

For a bit after breaking up with my then boyfriend, I made ends meet and did a stint as a PSO, and it paid vastly better than I expected. I was really surprised that it was also considered prostitution. I had no problem with it, and found that some men just needed to talk, and not Just about sex. I guess talking to a stranger, that you had No intentions of ever meeting, was cheaper than talking to a shrink. And from a Sociologist point of view, the work was fascinating to me..I enjoyed it greatly.
You open the Cat House Void, and get me a direct line to work from and I'll work for ya! LOL

Well I might consider it. Times surely are in favor of that, robbing banks, selling human organs on black market. All would be lucrative business ventures and provide enough revenue to pay a quarry of lawyers to ensure no one faced prison. Also, it would help one avoid being a politician. You would have honest work.

In all honesty and seriousness though, if I were to be doing anything of the sorts, you could be sure I would post all about it here. Tell everyone what you're doing and no one will believe it. ;) It would be the greatest open secret that everyone knew about. *chuckle*

Truly, I may get back into writing. Have been reading and otherwise researching the cozy mystery genre. Got a story started and it may have a chance at a larger and well known mystery publishing house. I will write under pseudonym/s and not let but a select few know of these. Would rather stay busy writing and not involved in the business aspects.

Also been looking at an idea of running a laundromat. The initial start up would be costly, but pay itself off quickly, then bring in enough to cover expenses and a modest profit. Think I would also possibly be able to locate a heavy weight financier whom could be a silent partner, help me with the SBA a bit. He is a nice guy and obviously quite well to do, has offered, "you all need anything, ask me."

Then, in August looking forward to course for certification as a Linux systems administrator. Could possibly ace most of the technical aspects presently. There's more to the field than such, hence needing to be assured and certified. Course is held at a local vocational technical center, free, probably need to buy books and/or pay for the test processing. I in no way could attend college for the bachelor's in computer sciences.

The expense and sorting out how to afford would really drive me over an edge I'd rather not go over. Then, facing a re-programming of the college would blow my fuses. I'll exercise what limited intelligence I have and admit, I am incapable of college due to mental problems.

But those same mental problems make me a fit for system administration. Weird catch 22 paradox in that, yet somehow it works out. *looks at the whole befuddling mess again in awe* The point being, I have some choices left open and am working toward bringing them to bear with a congruent outline of a *gasp* *cough* *cough* plan *cough* *cough*. But I have not said *ahem* plan *achew*, no not me. I know better. You say that word and life kicks you in the ass and knocks you down hard. So frag having a that word. :)

Bah, I ramble too much. Zombies might start figuring out that I used to have a brain, and come looking for any morsel of it left behind.

[12voltman59]

I don't think that your street level "whore" is making that kind of money---but in that long running series on HBO about the legal brothels out in rural Nevada--they have shown some of the private lives of the ladies who do that----and man---they make BIG TIME bucks---with many of those ladies on their own being able to buy "McMansions" filled with all kinds of nice furniture and such---they have high end cars like Porsches, Ferraris, Bentleys and such----and many have sent their kids to expensive colleges like Harvard or Yale, with no hubby and from the money they make.

Also---in the documentary "Inside Job" that dealt with how the Wall Street financial firms helped to kick off the big bad recession---among the high living being done by those bastards---they would expense off paying for high end "hookers" in Manhattan---ones that charged like ten or twenty grand an hour for their services.

I guess its good work if you can get it. I recall many years ago--I had met this one "dude" who was basically a gigolo for rich old south Florida ladies---he was set up with a really nice apartment in one of those beach side condos near South Miami Beach, had a hot car, fancy clothes, a watch collection well into the six figures, etc---I am sure that you can find guys who do the same thing for rich, older gay men too.

You still might. I could put in a brothel and call center over a laundromat. Folks put laundry in and go for quick toss, come back to clean threads. :) Of course, that would then also requisite a liquor store handy. Going to do that I could throw in a short order grill as well. Local Plan D house of wretchedness, hm have to call it Angel's Den to mislead the cops.

I know it's a sin for anyone to be successful, regardless of any sacrifice made in the path of that demon success oh my oh my stop now.

May be a bit surprising to note I do not consider success a sin. I do consider avarice and abuse sins. These are quite different creatures from success. I am happy successful people are successful, and happy for them. If and/or when they start being abusive to others, then I am greatly saddened.

I have always tried to be one whom can walk with kings and common people on the same footing. Because yes, I do believe as human beings we are all the same being. People are people. It seems some can not or will not understand that.

And thank you for posting in the thread. You reminded me of humanity in a way that caused me to understand humanity better. Suffice it say, if I could attain a thousand pounds of jade to lay at your feet, it would be a fitting payment for five minutes of time. Oddly enough, I would not desire sex but rather a hug and neck message.

Maybe not balls, maybe just nutty enough to be human. :)

[mariersa]

Void, I think you missed my point. Agreed, success is it learned/genetic I don't know? does it matter? I don't know? All opinions are valued, are they/ I don't know? People are people, sure, no problem, are some disatvantaged of course! are some not, of course! however, the reality of the equasition is, " it always has, and always will" Damn, can you imagine how boring it would be with 12Billion Steve Jobs, Mother Teresa's, 10000 George Clooney's (is the point made) running about? Please, mankinds destiny is the "take advantage of those/them weaker" it will just go on until the next "Great Global Melt" until then, duh, do what you do I guess, and feel good about it. Honestly policeman, I didn't see anything. hahahahahh

400 quid a night,Æon? I have a m8 who is a professional escort an' take it from me, 400 quid may buy 3 hours but it wont buy a night!!! Whatever a 1000 quid is in bucks maybe... and maybe I'm wrong but I woulda thought ur place was a bit more expensive than where I am... and I know a few more down to earth ladies who ply their trade on the streets... some of whom are rather dog eared an' all... 2 or 300 would be the going rate for them as far as I'm aware.. not that all of them see much of that tho...

1,000.00 GBP

=
1,584.95 USD Wow, quite a nice sum.





Guess my ladies and gents will need to charge five times as much. Rather grant them dignity for being first class folks. That is if I were running brothels and such. So, let do some rough figures. I get $8,000 a night. If I take ten percent, that means I get $800, $200 of that pays retainer rate of rob and kill guilds. $200 goes out for legal, $200 for operating expenses leaving me with $200. Not bad if my people turn a nice customer base. And I'm sure they will.

Then again robbing a bank only takes 15 minutes, and you can get twenty times $200 in a haul. Hard choice, really hard. *grin*
