After the past 10 days we have all  lost 15% or more in our 401K's, unemployment is thru the roof (CBS News reported real CA unemployemnt is 21.2% and most are collge grads with advanced degrees), home values have dropped 6.5% this year so far, gasoline is back over 4.10 p/gal, rents have jumped 3.5% on 1 yr leases, food costs are rising, bank rates are .10% on your money, hedge funds are getting hit hard, Goldmna Sachs even reported trading losses for the qtr.

Rome is burning and the politicians are on the golf course on vacation.

FAA laid off 80,000 contractors and are losing 30 million a day in taxes instead of paying the 13 million a day for the contractors, only Washington does math this way.

Obama is a one term failure, Tea Party is finished, a third party middle of the road candidate needs to appear and run all the mutts out of power.

Double dip recession, this is what we have now, the next step is depression.

Stock Mkt right now at noon is down 370 pts again.

So where is everyone getting 400,500,600 p/hr to spend on these women?

Are the ladies showing less appts, or no appts, but still will not move the price point?

I was starting to feel that I was the only one that even cares about mundane things like our financial survival. Meanwhile the Wall Street pros continue to pay taxes on thier huge gains at a capital gains rate, while I pay over 40% of my hard earned money to state and federal income taxes. The Wall Street guys are all selling out and leaving the working man with nothing. They will then run it up again, sell us out again and make even more money with very little effort. Why are we not marching in the streets? Girls-pretty soon your only customers will be greedy, self centered Wall Street assholes. Meanwhile Bloomberg and Soros are giving money away to distract us from the fact that they are the same greedy Wall Street assholes. I know i'm ranting but i can't help it. I work too hard, pay all my bills and I am pissed off!

It will be back buy now......

Based on the current atmosphere it takes big balls. No rational reason to buy other than the fact that the market has gone down. Maybe we should just spend all of our money on beautiful girls.

Don't listen so much to the rhetorical nonsense.  The media is not telling the whole truth.

We all should commit felony crimes, get Bloomberg and Soros to finance a job and we are then employed.  So the only employed are convicted felons and the greedy Wall St felons. Al in the middle and upper middle are screwed

Wait until the FAA and NASA numbers hit the unemployment rolls, thats another 300K hitting in Septs report.  Its worse than the media reports.  The media is trying to keep peoples spirits up.  Everyone i know who has a degree or advanced degree is unemployed except one person and they are making 50% of what they should make.

Too much supply and no demand, same as in the escort side with all the pretty unemployed girls working at this new profession for them.

Hold onto your pants, 1932 is coming again.  By law all unemployemnt runs out Jan 8th 2011 based on the federal extended benefits programs.  So its 26 in NY and off the rolls.

The market dropped over 500 today. No way the media can spin that, except to document Obama's falling approval ratings.

Funny part is the CBS National News reported tonight that the Prez approval rating is holding steady at 48%, Congresses rating dropped to 13% approval rating.

The poll sponsored by the NY Times (Liberal) and the wall St Journal (Conservative) stated that 86% of those polled said the exconomy is very bad.  Now darling OctaviaNYC/NJ, I do not know where you are getting your facts from but the economy sucks , and we mean sucks.

The high prices of the indoes and agencies at 4-800 p/hr is ludicrous in this enviorn and they will go thru unfulled hours, cancelled appts but still be paying the high NYC hotel rates, high NYC apt rents and never lose their taste for clothes, shoes, jewelry and drugs.

Somethings got to give and the clients wallet has been bleed dry.

The heat spell across the country and in NYC has people paying electric bills of 500 p/mo or more on top of the mtg, maint costs etc.

I live in S Fla on the ocean and the prices of the homes have collapsed.  Homes over 1.5-2.0 million have dropped to under 1 million.  My elec costs here which are a hell of alot cheaper p/kilowatt than NYC is close to 800 p/mo.  The pool pumps and filters are burning up the meter as well as the central a/c.

So this past month I have lost 17% on my retirement accts, lost 20% on my home, lost 8% on inflated food costs and gasoline costs, medical costs have increased 20%.

So where is the playtime cash money coming from?

No one wants to ctach a falling knife and get cut.  especially when the aditional knife blades are coming from Europe besides on the home front.

rhetorical nonsense, media not telling the whole truth, just curious what is the whole truth. i mean as the other poster wrote the market dropped over 500 points. and yes eventually it will come back somewhat, but the questions i'm hearing from major business owners in this city is how far of a drop and when and at what point does this dropping level off. the confidence level is down. most i've spoken to are convinced nothing is going to turn until the 2012 election and then only if there is a new president-though i'm not sure that's the answer either. nyc isn't immune to the rest of the country's and the world's worries- Italy Portugal etc.
sure there are going to be hobbyists who will still spend the bucks but i know of more than any before who are searching backpage ads for lower rates even knowing most are rip offs. or just going turtle and spending more time at the job instead of hobbying. and sometimes i too see some of the rates stated and think who is paying this.

And after I get flat and sort out the taxes, it'll be play time!

sometimes you have to go for it...Honestly I don't think now is the time....Some ladies I know that charge a lot for the hour have told me that things are very slow (slower than ever).  But I defend the woman's right to charge what she wants.  I think i may pull back a little on the higher end girls for a while but believe it or not my dumb ass just booked a trip to vegas so that shows you what I know..

Addict

There are men paying 1000 and better an hour. Then there are men who wouldnt dream of paying over 300. Both in this economic hard time and in the great times.
Somehow, no matter what the state of the economy, men find the money to have sex.
Does anyone remember the last King Kong with Naomi Watts? Took place during the depression....at the start of the movie she was not even earning enough to eat...she was trying to get a job and could not and was basically told "a girl that looks like you doesn't ever have to be hungry, there's a place around the corner...."
So true.

but the game has been permanently changed since the citizens united ruling by the Supreme Court. And it wasn't changed for the benefit of American citizens, regardless of political position.

Short term cash flow still allows me to hobby...

Now that you are in DC, will you please run for president in the next election? I think you would be a great president and put the USA back on track. I will vote for you for sure

One major flaw in CSJ for President.  She knows how to take a fucking in the ass, but what this country needs is someone who knows how to fuck the rest of the world and others in their ass.

Time for gunship diplomacy:  place an aircraft carrier off the Saudi coast and tell the shieks, oil is now $10 p/barrel or we come in and take it for free.  Look at your news, Mubarack behind bars with his sons in court nd he was our best friend.  We will not let the shieks get to court we will bomb out your palaces with air strikes and take the oil or allow your subjects to hang you in public the same way you do the women in your country that play around.  Their choice:  take our $10 a barrel or lose the oil for free.

A truly beautiful girl with a healthy attitutude never went hungry with the right, nice guy. But the right nice guy always had a good job or profitable business. The big problem is that there are fewer and fewer guys with any money. More and more guys are forced to live off of their wife or SO. These guys don't have enough money to catch a disease from a cheap street walker. All of the real money earned today is related to Wall Street. Wall Street does not create good jobs. In many instances Wall Street takes away jobs with the pressure to generate profits by out sourcing and cutting costs. Wall Street makes no real investment in infrastructure. I have a friend with a half a billion dollar hedge fund that has only six employees. The depression era robber barons created jobs.  Would Naomi Watts  (or would you) want to be with a really nice, good looking, unemployed guy that relies on her to put food on the table? Hard working good men in America are in real trouble.

I can spot you all the time.  It's so easy

High roller clients don't review as much as clients who see "lower end girls".  Essentially,  the guys who spend 600-1400/hour value their privacy a lot more and review a lot less.  Therefore, you can't take the numbers of reviews given to a high end girl and wrongly assume that this number is a reflection of how busy she is.  If these girls wouldn't be busy, they would lower their rates.  As simple as that.  

There is always demand for a good product at a fair price.  Take Cara for example.  She has an incredible body, beautiful face , extensive menu and very sexy.  I think she is a bargain.  If you are short on cash it would be better to beat off for a few weeks and save to see her rather than go see someone slightly cheaper but nowhere near the same quality.

Listlord my wonderful friend:  The point that the girls are paying the same costs, taking the same loses we are they are still way way ahead of the curve because they are NOT PAYING TAXES on their earnings.  So they are 40% ahead of the general masses.

The boat is not in dry dock, it has a full tank, just paying dock space costs, since I took a run to Bimini.  Gas on the water here is 5.50 p/gal and 7.20 for deisel.  Have not even started the engines in the past 3 weeks.

The housemates are not treating me as sugar daddy etc.  One goes off to work everyday 5 days a week, the other is just a party girl you know that.  The one that works is my playmate.  So there is no need to seek outside companionship or p4p action.

The point being is that no person who is not guaranteeing your personal freedoms is worth 6-800 p/hr to tell you how great you are and put on a performance.  I would not pay 600 for a Yankee tkt that lasts 3 hr or a womens pussy that lasts 1 hr.

There are  alot of beautiful women on the beaches, clubs, restaurants, bars, casinos, all one needs is game and they are yours for free.

The point being again, the economy stinks, working girls are earning took damn much for their skill sets and do not deserve the fees demanded and they will suffer when biz dries up if it already has not.  If one keeps telling the same lie over and over (biz is great, we are booked etc) people start to believe the lie and they hold the prices because of perceived demand which does not exist.

I see the working girls here in Fla and the thread here which is dead, I mean dead and they are suffering.  They are lowering their rates here, giving you way over time paid for just to keep you coming back.  Friends have visited and bought action and they have had 1.5-2 hrs for a 1 hr fee because the girls did not think they were visitors, thought they resided here.

The area I live in the value of the homes are soem of the highest in the state.  Two other communities are on par Palm Beach and Naples.  We have a 40 man police force for a town that is 1.25 miles long x .5 miles wide with 3 speed traps set up at night picking off tourists and undesirables.

No sugar daddy here, the housemates are very well off (or should I say their fathers are well off) and give them whatever cash they want.  They are here for the lifestyle.

Couldn't have said it better!

Went out to the strip club with a friend last night.  The strip clubs here are dead.  Not because of the weather, because as the girls have said, no on has money to blow at 200-300 for a nights entertainment looking at girls. Alot of the strippers work outcall thru an agency and the agency is dead, one of the best in Fla and NY.  They are popular, well run and charge 350-500 p/hr and they are very slow.

I met the owner last month and we were talking shop and whatever and she said that biz was down last month 20%, now I need to contact her and talk shop or better yet have her come to my home (she has a home that is magnificent) for a party and would be willing to bet that hse tells em biz is down 60% since last week.

Down here the S American money is driping from trees and they are pulling back.  Venz, Brazil, Argentina money guys and they are holding back.

Down the beach lives a very well to do 50 year old S American, spends money, helicopters off his beach because he hates traffic (I think he lost his lic in the speed traps) and he has had parties with all working girls, paid for for the 4 hrs and now he is cutting back.  No parties he told me, no more working girls at his home (the parties for just the girls must have been 10-15K for the night).  When they cut back, its time for the economy and natural mkt factors to adjust.

Let the world charge what they want, when they cry, i will not even provide the tissues, they built the mousetrap, now suffer the crunch of the trap.  Pride is a hard thing for the ladies to swallow, but eventually they look in the mirror and the pride goes away when they see wrinkles and sagging bodies.  Its like football careers, good for only 5 years then find soemthing else to do, but in their vases, its find someone else to support them.  Women are a dime a dozen, but women think all men are chumps and cannot live without the arm candy.

Listlord:  Ther ring girl is so full of herself its ridiculous.  I do not have much to say to her, she is friends with one of the girls as I mentioned.  Guys chase ad chase and she plays them all.  She is no kid as I also mentioned, alot older than her looks.  Everything she has is based upon sugar daddies she tries to keep.  But they all leave because she is so arrogant and full of herself.  She has a wonderful body and swims nude all the time, but if she catches you looking, een though its my house she makes a snide comment.  Fuck er and her attitude, but I do not want to piss off my friends.

Regarding taxes, I believe that they pay cash for everything, lease the cars, no ownership, pay rent in money orders and claim al are gifts from suitors.  If they claim small sums then their credit reports reflect that and it hurts their ability to rent upscale or lease high end cars or get mtgs when they retire.  Would you believe that many have told me they are on social services medical benefits and they are the 600 p/hr ladies.

They spend cash on the plastic surgeons and buy jewelry for cash figuring that the bvalue will remain stable.

Few have bank accounts with any real money.

its all the underground economy.

The boat is a bottomless pit.  Just the fuel to Bimini and back was over $800 not including $250 p/nt docking with electric and water.  Nice ride though thru open seas.  Was rough water on the return trip.

Stay in touch.
