  1. The economy is booming, this is the new golden age-- after this next big pull back, it will be to the Moon -/Alice!!

    And, when traders are making money … they're also spending it. There's a direct correlation between finance professionals' day-to-day business and their discretionary spending. Luxury or high-end items, such as automobiles and entertainment usually get a boost when Wall Street is feeling good.

    Back in October I polled about a hundred bankers, traders, analysts and portfolio managers about spending for a little something I call the "escort indicator" — a gauge of discretionary spending on everything from fancy cars to escorts. A whopping 80 percent said they preferred saving in the current environment amid all the uncertainty surrounding the presidential race. So, I reached back out to them to see if, now that Donald Trump is president and embarking on a pro-business agenda, their opinion has changed. And 30 percent said they've increased their spending.

  3. What a sad commentary on men ( the hookers).

    I always wondered what was wrong with guys who spent $ on hookers- particullarly $1000 plus per hour ones--- How sad can one be?


    Sex is free and great when u love your spouse or girlfriend. There's so many beautiful women who are "normal" and want sex just as much as men.

    If only life was such a fairy tale for everyone.
    We all meet the beautiful princess and live happily ever after.
    In reality 80%+ of women are not beautiful princesses, they are mostly ugly bitches.
    (Same applies to men too).

  5. Its way more of a mental thing than a looks thing. I believe you attract people with the same Or compatible energy you project regardless of looks

    This entire primary dynamic is removed with hookers, making sex just a stupid waste of time and $$ regardless of what she looks like.

    Just my thoughts.

    For 99% of us the sex either stops or becomes boring, escorts offer a low risk hassle free service, life is just too short to go without the things we love.

    When I start making big $$$$$$'s i promise to spend 50% on hookers and just blow the rest :)

    Plus same woman twice in a row, hell no!

    Disagree woman just want fancy hair do's, energy LOL , or money ofcourse.

    Since losing the clump of hair at the front, hence no longer being able to spike it, interest has dropped 90%+.

    Most girls are hateful bitches stuck up there own arses, I've known a few outside of there work, all some of the nicest girls I've ever met, so don't be so judgy.

    Wish i didnt have the 8year old this weekend :(

  9. Famous quote from somebody who died broke... can't remember who said it (perhaps Hemingway?)... "I spent 90% of my money on women and booze. The rest I squandered".
     
  10. people that pay for hookers are screwed in the head; maybe once or twice...but constantly? there is something fundamentally off about these individuals
