No one will ever compile realistic figures about anything to do with the hobby since the vast majority of what we spend and what the ladies make is never reported, admitted to or even talked about beyond a very small circle.

I guess the media won't stop trying to sensationalize the topic for as long as it attracts readers but really, they don't have much of a clue...

I'd look at the concrete evidence, and extrapolate.

Probably the most concrete evidence is advertising.  It's reasonable to assume that a certain volume of advertising supports a certain volume of business.  

You'd have to be careful how you developed that model.  Eg., it takes nothing to spam Craigslist forever, and that's likely to indicate underemployed providers as much as employed ones.

OTOH, big forums like TER, etc probably include raw data that could be used to make certain estimates.
Blind surveys might be used to develop some types of estimates.

I am totally depressed.  Cannot hold my head up... will probably never leave my small cave again....   cannot stand that I have not even approached half of this...

life is tragically too short... and this is just too depressing - and most of his encounters at   9 or 10 ???  

who is this guy ?? Wilt C?
