Weird this to say on this board. Why is it bad form?

That's not the point I was making - I was commenting that to call out how stupid it is for him to think talking income is bad form when many, many people think fking escorts is ultra taboo.

Like go on the street and ask someone what's worse, sharing your income or seeing an escort?.

It's subjective so it's stupid for him to try and lecture on it...

As I once heard it stated, people will spend oodles of money on things they don't need or even want in order to impress people they don't like -- I think that actually sums it up!

In my younger days, I spent a few years living in England. There was a guy who used to stop in at the country pub in Derbyshire where I worked who was from the true Upper Class -- in short, his family had been landowners since the 11th century, and he and his family were crazy rich only because they descended from some French knight who'd come over with William the Conqueror, and money and land had literally been passed down for 1,000 years.

This guy would dress in clothes that looked like he found them at a second-hand shop and he drove an old Vauxhall (the British subsidiary of Chevrolet). The only thing that would make you think this guy was wealthy was that he lived in an old manor house by himself. This guy made made me understand the difference between Old Money and New Money.

That's not necessarily new vs old money. Ppl w/ old money can still dress in extremely expensive clothing and drive extremely expensive/rare cars. Many of them do lol.

The difference is trying to flaunt wealth vs. the iykyk - hype vs. quality & history. It's more like wearing a Richard Mille vs. A. Lange & Sohne.

Cool story. Trying to lecture ppl on what's good and bad form is stupid in any decade.

If you were out with a group of people, would you ask them their salary? if so, you're a classless rube.

Fair enough; there is definitely the "ghetto rich" look -- Richard Mille watches, thick gold rope neck-chains, Bugattis, etc. And also Rosedale Rich vs Bridle Path Rich.

No you wrote "Fucking escorts is bad form but here you are." You were making that statement not "commenting" on it. Now you're calling other people stupid when you were teh one to write that.

There are surveys that ask ppl their salaries…I guess the ppl that create those are classes rubes.

Here is likely some useful information.

I never trust government statistics, if for no other reason that they are too broad.

I feel that John participation on boards had changed to the more upper-income earners in the past 20 years, even though sex work prices have increased 3.5 - 5 percent on an average inflation rate in my personal experience. So I would think that wage growth would match that.

Not sure if that is because the wages of a group of workers has not kept up with inflation, the inflation rate on necessities has outpaced the inflation rate of sex work, some lower-income folks don’t like to treat sex workers as professionals by making and keeping an appointment made in advance, or some combination of those things? In addition to the rate of inflation on necessities, I think the almost permanent spending on children (even after they are no longer children) has been a huge drag on the available cash flow of a lot of average income earners.

My first full-time job, after graduating university with a BA in 1967, paid $100 per week.

That was actually pretty good back then, and still living at home I could save money...

I’ll try to give this discussion a “TERB theme” direction. I was always wondering why guys with so-called “disposable income” lack imagination and fantasies. As an example, I used to read Sugar Baby thread where girls have multiple daddies and even meet them the same day. So, you want two PPM per day? How about a 3some, I can pay more and bring my friend. Or have two sugar babes together at once.

Hesitant to Greek, babe? Here are couple more dollars and enema kit as a bonus. Or having guys on-call to participate in action. Yes, you guys don’t pay, but you’ll do what I say including cuckold, BDSM, etc.

I don’t want to sound cynical, but these scenarios are possible if a wealthy person can arrange it. Maybe it exists; but I’ve never heard about it. Be creative and wild!!!

Nah - I bring it up b/c the irony is incredible. Gonna keep bringing it up when someone tries to claim some arbitrary moral high ground.

Glad you remember me though.
