but I would think that porn would be faster money as being an elite lady takes time to build your reputation, clients etc.  Also I would also think that doing porn would do away with some of the fear that comes with providing such as possibly getting robbed, raped, beat up, STD's (although the porn industry did have an issue, last year I think) etc.  Money wise I would think alot of the top ladies in the hobby make more than porn stars do, but thats an assumption.  I lived next to a pornstar for almost 2 years and had no idea until she finally told me and my then SO.  She said she made alot of money and had all kinds of free trips to vegas and LA etc paid for by Vivid that she worked for, and she had benefits like health care.  She also won an award.  Look up Annie Swanson.  She was my neighbor  So Idk.  My take would be porn stars would fall in the upper echelon of providers in the money department but they have perks, while the truly elite providers make more money but unless a hobbyist wants to see her, must travel on her own dime, not sure if agencies float this cost or not, and pretty sure theres no provider healthcare plan.  Ladies shed any light here?
