Hi Bobby, at AW, the prices seem to go through the roof, Punters should set a clear signal and do not pay these dream prices. Here, too, I read more and more articles by blokes praise the high-priced girls. If investment bankers in London have besides their cocaine bill , still have a few hundreds left for whores, fine, but the average guy should not pay hookers a daily wage just for 30 minutes ..when he does he does not need to complain, he is the demand, and he is in the majority. We already had that in another thread. 
I agree with most of the sentiments here.
I guess for true Independents they may tend to adopt two approaches.
Cheaper rates back to back bookings or more expensive no rush with intervals. The latter may not be full time.
From my experience most have decent motors, branded clothes, expensive underwear and a high maintenance lifestyle that cannot be supported by any other work commensurate with their skill set.
So I am not a high earner either and equate it to paying for legal fees.
But lots of WG do have a sense of entitlement and do not see it as a business transaction when negotiating down a claim to be insulted. A classic example is Raya.
That excludes those who have a secret maid who no doubt takes a cut (30-50% I am guessing) with many punters non the wiser.
SA is even worse.
20Jay there is a flaw in the daily net wage debate that you are willing to spend a third for 15 mins or fifty percent for 30 mins. Presumably with the aim for more frequent visits a week in mind. So some would say this is equally not affordable over a monthly basis either if you gave one or two visits more a week.
So VFM is not necessarily the amount you pay but is dependent on the experience you receive.
Unfortunately Brexit, hotels being more vigilant and general push market forces of overall less compitition will drive prices up I am afraid.
One thing people do not take in to account is others location. This is most people's primary deciding factor on whether too see someone or not.
