Roughly how much of your income do you spend on punting?

[bustymilflover]

Just curious how much you guys spend as I've done a bit of accounting and found I'm not spending as much as I thought. I've punted 27 times since my first in 2022 (still have a lot more reviews to write but the majority were when I wasn't a member here) and have spent around 4500. My taste and standards have gradually gone higher and higher and my resistance to my impulses have gone lower and lower.

Anyway I'm looking to start some sort of a budget for this little hobby of mine and trying to work out a percentage of my yearly salary to allocate to this and would like to hear some references or if anyone has a rule of thumb. Thanks

I'm just starting out but I'm hoping to cap it at ~£300 a month which doesn't actually go very far beyond a bunch of happy massages a month.

I've only done one full punt with a nice asian lady and overall it was fine but the house felt like student digs which I didn't appreciate, but I'll need to get out there and see what's what.

I probably spend 5 to 10% of my monthly income on this hobby, I earn just above the average wage in my main job which should give you an idea but I do have a 2nd income that helps.
I normaly punt every 4 to 6 weeks depending on how busy i am or how rich i feel 

[RandomGuy99]

A lot less than I used to.

I used to do 3 to 4 one hour bookings a week which was £20K a year.

I wouldn't do a percentage of your salary. Figure out how many appointments you'd like to do per month and see how much that works out as.

I tend to set an average monthly budget. If I go over one month, I go under the next. Although I aim to spend less. My rough rule per month is the equivalent of a P&D a weekend. So about £300 a month. Recently I've been having more expensive punts less often. But In general around 5% of my income

[runner in the woods]

I'd say about 1k a year, but I've got carried away the last 12 months. I'm almost up to that figure and it's only end of April. Going to try to rein it in a bit, go for 30min massages and HE at £50 a pop. It's getting very expensive . 70£ punts are getting few and far between. Except Thais and Brazilians.

[myothernameis]

When I first started punting in the mid 80's, I would spend around £900 per year, which average cost of extra's = £40

[MaxVerstappen]

That last part isn't even getting true anymore with the amount of things they charge extra for.
I honestly wish nearby there was a decently attractive British gal who didn't have a list of extras as long as their leg. My spend would plummet

[fairyguy]

I make around £15k cash a month, and set aside £1k a month on punting.
A few years ago when I used to work as a salaried job, I was making £3k take home and used to only afford one or two punts a month.

I would have thought with higher income I would punt more but now that I’m working at least 70-80 hours a week on average it just seems impossible

Not a huge amount, average month about 3% of net monthly income but have been looking a few much more expensive treats

Based on another of your recent posts is that £10 a pop

Luckily where I am, British are £100 for 30mins. Including owo, anal extra £30. But most of them are size 14 and upwards. English girls are getting fatter , costs rise for a athletic girl

[signy]

In line with others have suggested; 5-10% of disposable income. Although nothing for the last two months or so; going through a down period and not fancying it.

[Demon8]

Last month I spent about 1.5k some months i dont spend anything. I used to set a budget but that just turned into seeing girls for the sake of it. Now I set aside around 200-300 a month and top up as required when im away at a gig or conference etc to have more fun.

[jamiekinkxxx]

Less and less each year

[Stevelondon]

I just wish I had a spreadsheet 🤷🏼

It does make me realise though that others seem to punt on a regular basis. Weekly, monthly etc.

I guess nowadays I’m sporadic at best.

Did get me thinking though. Not about what I’ve paid over the years on sex. But the things we as punters don’t think of. The invisible expenditure.

Petrol/diesel for transport, fares for public transport, boxer/Y-fronts, cologne etc.
I mean you could even throw on the cost of gas and electricity for the one or two of us who shower or bathe before a punt.
There are those trips to the clinic to take into account. The cost of blue pills, erectile delay creams.
How about those little gifts that some like to give.
Bus, train, plane trips for some.


I’ve worked it out I could have bought two more houses if I had not gotten involved in this hobby.
Instead of just the four I’ve got.

Similarly. 👍🏻😂

I spend more on my grandkids. 🤷🏼

This is how it started with me. Swore I'd never see an escort, however deep down I always had a fantasy. I started to get legit Thai massages at first, and promised myself I wouldn't get any extras. I just found the massages themselves erotic.

The slowly, you want more. I began to get happy endings, and then slowly it grew from there. I then started to get body to body massages. Then I moved into parlors, which I'm still relatively new at. It's definitely an expensive hobby.

[therichardrichard]

It's steadily rising as I now get more opportunity than I used to as I moved to a new job 18 months ago which means I have more convenient access to more girls and more money to spend on them, which is either a blessing or a curse! 

Rough calculation says that of the money I take home each month I was spending 4% in 2025 with a couple of meets a month but for 2026 so far we are currently sitting around 10% (which implies that I need to cut down!)

[merseyrob]

When I started out I was probably spending most of my disposable income on it as I wasn’t earning a lot, so I would guess it was around 25% of my take home pay. I remember one brothel allowed me to pay by cheque so it wouldn’t come out until payday.  Nowadays I reckon it is about 5% of take home.


Hard to work out how much I have spent over the years but I would estimate an average of £1500 a year over 30 odd years of punting. Sometimes I think that money could have been put to better use but you only live once and have had some amazing experiences (along with a few shit and scary ones!).

AI answer to you question about what £1500 a year invested (in say the S&P500) over 30 years would be worth:

Investing £1,500 annually (£45,000 total) in the S&P 500 over the last 30 years (approx. 1996–2026) with dividends reinvested would likely result in a final balance exceeding £150,000 to £180,000+, assuming an average annual return near the historical 10-11% range. This demonstrates strong compounded growth, significantly outpacing the total invested capital.

Estimated Returns Breakdown (Approximate based on historic data):
Total Invested: £45,000 (£1,500/year)
Approx. Final Value: >£150,000 (Varies based on specific start/end months)
Approx. Average Return: ~10-11% compounded annually.

I get £1200 per month in benefits, I spend around £800 on punts, leaving me with £400 for food, rent, car payments and insurance, council tax, utilities, clothes, holidays and entertainment, etc etc. = 66% punting to / income ratio.

I think at least half of the posters on this thread are chatting shit, as the alleged punt spending ££'s don't much the number of reviews.

At least my punt spending matches my reviews, the rest might be exaggerated 

[MLawro93]

Out of my monthly disposable income, I allocate ~40% a month on punting. I don't increase or borrow against myself, but do rollover any remaining money over to the next month. The rest of my fun money for the month is spent on other stuff I enjoy, can't just all be punting!

Always cover the basics first before even considering punting. Its not a cheap hobby.

[Mr Garmin]

Last year I started to set myself a budget of £1k / month just to keep track and not let it get too out of control.  Some months I spend more and others less but it works out at £10k - 15k /year.

Mind you, This doesn't go far when I have a duo like recently with Michelle and Emilia @£400, SB's are usually ~£300 a time and a lot of the escorts on my HL are £200/h+

If I can find a suitable escort/SB, I'd like to take her away for a few nights which would have to be outside my normal spend as I would expect it to be ~£5k
