Without intending to sound mean which this may.

In this SPs have a lot in common with professional athletes high incomes over a relatively short period of time with for the vast majority much lower incomes post "career." Again many (not all) do not have good job skills/education for the "civilian" workplace. Combine this with an often a semi-subconscious belief that they will always have the sort of income stream they have at present.

As to the point that they have expenses that have to be paid or percentages that are taken out of their fees, this is true of many in the professions as well. Dentists, Accountants, Lawyers, Physicians who are in small firms/partnerships and who pay their staff and expenses from their fees

SPs have prep time, cleanup time, they have to pay the agency a cut or if they're indy pay for an incall or a driver (and they often still have expenses with an agency; despite their big cuts, agencies sometimes don't provide everything or feel the need to impose additional fees for some things). They can also have a lot down time either due to lack of clients or worse no-shows. So net income isn't always as high as one might expect. And of course some of them got into the business because of high expenses they needed to deal with; perhaps a family member depending on them, or loser boyfriend mooching, or accumulated debt. And of course there are some of them with drug problems, even if that stereotype is exaggerated. So some of them aren't earning enough for their expenses. And, of course, there are probably a few who are hoping their sob story will get them a better tip.

Still, all that being said, I haven't actually had a lot of SPs tell me that they don't make enough money. But then I tend to avoid talking about money with SPs; tends to be bad for the mood. Perhaps you invite the subject by asking why they charge so much or something?
I agree with everythingDocOdd said. I knew ladies in the business who had drugs and alcoolic problems and the only way to solve them was to have a therapy. Some said it works well for them. Also the ladies was making much more 6-7 years ago before the recession and it make sense. There are a lot of independent SPs out there and the expenses are high: Hotel, condo, appartment, expensive avertisement, clothes, flight,..etc Also they can't work 24h and they might have a family or a loving friend they like to spend time with.

For one (or more) of the following reasons:

1) They don't put in the hours they should.
2) They don't spend wisely, viewing a large portion of their income as disposable.
3) They don't have the clientele.

It certainly has nothing to do with the cheap price....

Because most of the money is cash and cash is liquid and easily disposable. So the truth is they make good money but it spends easily. That's why they seem to not have any.
lol that is probably exactly why.

without reading back even one single post i am going to suggest this. whether SP or anyone i fyou do not budget your money and finances properly you are going to be hurting for money week to week and day to day.

a proper budget is key to a happy life.

I am also sure there are a lot of girls supporting young families or paying their way through school. Everyone would always like to make more money, but learning to budget using whatever income you have (working as an SP or a civillian job) is part of life regardless of it being an ever changing income or a salary pay cheque.
Yepper.....everyone has responsibility :)

Thanks for pointing this out I missed it," 1) They don't put in the hours they should." I am sure this happens as well, but we do not have to be stereotyping all into one grouping.

No one knows an individuals reason, but in regards to the topic, its about, Why some make the claim." lol

I manage and advise financially several ladies who work in this industry and I can say that most do live day to day and don't think about the future. They want all the frills and with cash coming in it's easy to spend what you make.

The one's I advise have been in the business for a period of time and have realized that their looks and bodies will only last so long and after that, if they don't plan they won't have anything. We sit down and figure out what they need to live on comfortably and the rest goes into their investments. Even with the economy the way it is they have been earning 7.5% or better. Several now have over 6 figures invested.

Some of these ladies are now looking at stopping because they have a nice investment income coming in that will allow them to go back to school or accept a regular job and live comfortably.

To the girls that are spending it as fast as you make it you better start thinking about what your going to do when it ends.

That's an old time story! In my long hobby life i have not yet find a single SP, MPA, Courtesan, or even a SC Dancer who proclaimed that she has enough money from her hobby and business, 100% of them always cried they have no money, and just surviving only:) that game has become very old now for a seasoned gentleman like me, i have learnt 2-lessons in my life that once you get friendly to a girl or a lady from Adult Industry sooner or later she will squeeze you high and dry which is their main objective! Never lend or loan any monies to an SP most probably she would not return and i have lost nearly 100% for trusting SP's, who gave me a word of honour that she would return my monies which she had taken as a loan and a favour from me, but i still have to see that day when a SP would return the moneies owned by them, that is why No Bank or even any financial institution would like to deal with most of them, and most of the SP's dont have a single Credit Cards even, Lord only knows how they buy posh cars ? Less said the better!

i can't for the life of me see why you would care where, why, when, how or on what escorts spend their money
Maybe because he makes a percentage of their investment portfolios....lol Think it called money management and probable future since most girls are short live in both this business environment and porn modeling.... time takes hold.

But mostly I think its the," percentage margin, and potential earnings from helping another gain wealth."

This is harsh below, as well stereotypical generalization, I met many over the years who kept there words, and are quite descent in fact..as well as many full of shit....lets not dump them all into one barrel.

just a thought:confused:
It makes no difference to me what people do with their money. However when they become my client then that's a different matter. At that point my job is to advise them and then based on their decisions invest for them. That's how I make my living. If they don't make money on their investments then I don't.

Ladies can do what ever they like but the cash flow will slow down rather quickly as they get older. It's just the younger competition and if you don't have a backup plan then you really are screwed ..... LOL
