Some of the girls I mention retired late 00's so no not 20's years ago... I have just been punting for that number of years.
Was their job market easier 20 years ago? Not sure TBH... neither are you. My point was much more about some comments that have been made that escorts are not good business people, astute with money...
That is not the case as I have mentioned, they had an exit plan, worked to that plan and were made for life.
So they basically retired when the recession hit then. We can't play ignorant to the amount of cash flowing around pre recession back then. It's good for them they were able to do so. I'm not sure how we have a dispute when we are stating different points to be honest. The circumstances then are not the same now. Furthermore, the job market then was easier than now. Were you doing psychometric tests, multiple interviews and group assessment centres to get your job? It's not really relevant to this topic or I could find information to back up my claim that the market was easy then than now.
See my response three posts above.
You think 3hrs a day, 5 days a week, 3 weeks a month, 10 months a year to ger >£100k a year is unrealitic. I think it is more than achievable.
This really is a POINTLESS exercise
It's not pointless, otherwise there would not be threads every now and then where people are speculating how much they make. It is possible to deduce a range of what is realistic depending on certain variables to an extent in a realistic fashion.
I'll explain why I think it is unrealistic for such a work pattern to be consistent to allow an income of that amount each year.
1. There is no guarantee that the SP will even get 3 clients in a day to work 3 hours, will the clients she get pay for 1 hour each or shorter intervals?
2. How many timewasters will she get? How many clients will she screen and decide not to see?
3. What happens if she is sick? What happens if she does not feel like working?
4. Quiet periods?
5. Wants to go on holiday?
6. Unforeseen circumstances leading to not being able to work?
7. Gets a partner and stops working?
8. Somehow ends up pregnant which stops her working?
9. Expenses and Overheads?
10. ill health, mental health or burnout.
Taking all of this into consideration and you still reckon an SP can not only earn more than 100K but they will somehow keep it after taxes and expenses? I'm not sure what I am missing here that I cannot see.
In my opinion, your thought exercise is a simplified reduction of what can be possible in an ideal world where everything goes well, extrapolating factors such as the amount charged, number of clients and time worked in a vacuum; not real life. This is why I think it is unrealistic per say. This is not happening for them in real life. Now perhaps maybe I am being stubborn for good reason, but I would like to think I have listened to enough people, seen first hand and researched to not think I am completely wrong in my conclusion lol.
