Bordello69 made a reference to disposable income on the over 60 board which got me remembering a bit of math I did a while back. I was chatting, post coitus, with a $400/hr cute young thing who was telling me about a recent experience of hers. She was contacted by a rich guy who flew her to his home city and then had his limo drive her to his private compound.  She wound up charging him thousands of dollars for some private companionship.

Not that there's anything wrong with that.

She could have asked for more, but she asked for what she felt it was to make it worth her time.  

I mean after all, he can afford it, right?

Do you have any idea how foolish you sound, and how there is almost no doubt that mrfisher is right about you?

Here's an idea, why don't you get a second job or go better yourself instead of "wishing" you had what the successful people have?

Moral of the story, get off your lazy ass if you want more out of life.

Now if he CHOSE to tip her, fine and dandy.

oh let's say for grins $ 20MM but all is invested in growth equities...and no dividends are paid...and the dude makes only $ 12,000 a year in some other investments...

he is a sweet man as his handle says. He is just trying to spread the wealth around.

What's fair is that each party is able to negotiate a deal freely.  A willing buyer and seller and reasonable transparency are all that are required for the the transaction to be done freely.  If you feel the other guy should have paid a million for the same service you got for 400 you need to go back and retake freshman econ.

I think the math is quite easy, she has determined that her time is worth $400/hour. You travel to her, go up at the predetermined time, have a nice time with a cute young thing, then you leave. Everyone is happy. This guy flew her to his hometown and had her driven to his private compound (your own words) and then when their appointment was over she had to be driven back to the airport and fly back home, this is why he paid thousands.  

Maybe we need a "progressive" hobbying code

Guess you work in some field having nothing to do with basic economics?

I thought about doing that for a second. Then I came back to my senses. Lol!

This one post just surpassed all of Turdy's, AF's, and other contenders' posts. If this guy doesn't get the stupid poster of the year, this sure is the stupidest post of the year so far!

I give up.  This was just meant to be amusing, nothing more.  Some of you guys take things much too seriously.  Lighten up!

I don't believe anyone took it seriously.

Good one

of an all you can eat restaurant chain. You'll probably weigh 'em on the way in, and weigh 'em on the way out, then charge them the difference, times how many hours they spend at the buffet.

Works that way for crack addicts.

5 dollars a kiss, 10 dollars a booby, 50 dollars a thigh slap.  You could set up a register next to the bed and  click it as things progress.  Every once in a while, offer an early bird, all you can eat special and watch these old fuckers line up.

I thought you were just giving the hounds a reason to fight over the girls by the reaction.

No one cares share here. To bare is another matter altogether
