A gross estimation.

Most on two diff. atf's.

and Not worry about Your Best friends new lover...and how much money the guys spend or the ladies make...just my opinion of course.

This year, so far, I'd say around 5k. Give or take a few hundred.

But you can't put a price on the fun I've had!

Exactly right.

Just sayin'

wow...just one for me like you and i'm set lol.

they thought they were set.

I'm anal -- I keep a Excel spreadsheet

$5000 per year is my maximum.  My personal line on keeping it a hobby and not an obsession ...

You're making some assumptions that aren't applicable here. You're assuming all money went toward meetings of a physical nature? Take into consideration 'spur of the moment gifting', 'making donations for living arrangements', vehicle rentals, trips of a romantic nature, etc.... So you see the 200k over a span of three years was quite conservative really. It has tapered off to near nothing now.

No, that represents all of my costs.  I don't really believe in tipping escorts and I usually take the subway to meet escorts, so all my costs are accounted for ....

I am actually considering it.  I am usually very good at lying to the others, but after more than 3 years lied to my wife, I am tired.  I am planning to give my "ladies" some gifts and quit.

You must have a lot of money that you family hasn't noticed this expnese.

why the question....if anything...the other day You mentioned how messy Your life is...I would think Your question would be toward what's messed up in your life...and suggestions as to what to do...rather than wanting to know what the guys spend on the hobby...however I don't believe You would listen anyway

Don't worry, I will be around even if I quit the hobby.  
BTW, what are you going to tell me, what to do?  Tell me!

I have spent hundreds of thousands over decades that I have been doing this, even more when you consider the money I have spent on airfare, hotels etc, in order to hobby in a couple of dozen countries.

In return I have been rewarded with thousands of hours of pleasure, have been able to travel to dozens of countries, and have enjoyed the company of literally thousands of women.

In comparison to my marriage and subsequet divorce. I spent a mere five years married, to a woman I don't think I was ever really in love with, and it cost me more than the other 2,000 or so women I have been with combined.

This hobby is cheap compared to marriage. rofl

Why does marriage always turn out a failure?

to tell You what to do...You wouldn't listen to sound advice anyway....so why do You want to be a peeping tom..lol...why don't You just leave all together and show and be an example for Your Best friend and his new Lover...or is it that...YOU have a set of Rules (no rules) and a retired provider You set High Expectations on that You Yourself can Not even live up to...

who got the 88 cents?

The money isn't an issue, I just wish I had more time.
