... an odd confluence of the stars or the beginning of the school year? I feel as if here in the NYC area there has been a distinct uptick in the number of young women on SA talking about nothing but shopping or spoiling or even more bluntly, show me the money! I'm not dumb abut this stuff, I know how the game is played, but it strikes me as a clumsy and unartful way to find an SD. Just my .02 but thoughts?

I just saw a brand new profile about ten minutes ago that only says "spend that coin"  The POT SB posting it is barely a TER 8 at best. PASS

 
It's funny, I don't care how "smooth" or "clumsy" an ad is in the hooker world, as long as the girl is hot (and she has decent reviews of course, which don't exist in the sugar world), but I agree, these "golddigger" type ads in the Sugar World are a huge turn off and usually dissuade me from ever contacting them in the first place because while I expect to "pay" I have ZERO desire to become some girls ATM

"Let me spend your money!"

"The smell of your money makes me horny"

Yeah, probably not the best marketing jobs one could do...

I'm not sure if that is what is causing the effect you are seeing, but the seasonal pattern to SB availability is greatly influenced by the academic calendar.   Some areas see major inflows and outflows.  

I did see one SB profile in the past month that read something like, "I need a LV bag to go back to school for my senior year."  I would have bought her a JanSport backpack, but a Louis Vuitton pocketbook is the epitome of entitlement and being spoiled.  

At least she is almost certain to "put out" for the money you give her, The first one, not so much, she sounds like a bitch who wants to get as much as possible and give as little in return as she can possibly get away with.
