Do you spend on the hobby at a time and per year.  
I try to spend 10% of my income it like giving to church.  Both could care less about as walk out door.  
At time spend less than 1%  but not 0.1% of my income. But I cheap.

Amen to that!

10% ?  i would be very very very popular.....and exhausted   LOL .    but it adds up .. easily averages out to more than $1K a month ..  so over 20 years .. do the math!    

A long weekend in Costa Rica, Panama or Colombia used to run me about $5,000 including airfare, chicas, food, drink etc. At one point I was going down there at least once a month, usually twice. Of course on an average long weekend I would see 10-15 different chicas so I am hardly complaining about the money I spent, but when you factor in the other 20+ days of the month where I would see another  12-15 American hookers (and Asian of course) at American prices, yes the total is really not something I care to add up. lol

There are no pockets in a burial shrod

“I spent half my money on gambling, alcohol, and wild women. The other half I wasted.”

I like some saving to keep from being homeless.

I use to be able to fuck all night, I mean I really loved me some pussy, luckily I had a girlfriend who also loved sex…. Nevertoolarge and GAGAMbler, I thought 6000 to 7000 was to much for a year, at 1000 a month 8% return a year for 20 yrs is well over a half million, I guess a wife could cost that much,  it depends on if she works and make her own money,back around 2006, I had a provider who charge 1000 an hour tell me, this is a rich man hobby and if you can’t afford it ,then you shouldn’t do it!! I guess she was right. Lol

Thank you for writing clearly and dropping the act.. Lets keep it that way now

I'm on track to spend about 8% of gross income this year. I think that's high for recent years, though last year was unusually low at around 5%. That's partly because funds are available (my spending on travel and other forms of entertainment is still way down from pre-COVID), and because I have been seeing a couple girls regularly at a pretty high rate per session.

a fairly large percentage of my "income."
But since I can afford to be retired, a small fraction of a percent of net worth.

the three F's !    

Moi aussi, but I'm only semi-retired.  I still go to my office 20-24 hours a week.  You might say I'm being paid to be logged onto TER.    LOL

My wallet groans when I spend too much ... but alas, not like "she" GROANS!
