Well, how much?
I understand that it depends on the stranger and all that, because a lot of people are like
“Well, I don’t know so and so, so they’re a stranger. Man, I’d love him/her to ruin my life.”
But let’s just say all things being equal, how much would it take for you to have sex with a stranger? Someone once said that we’re all whores, it’s just a matter of price. Who was that again?
Anyway, take off your party-pooper hats, and put aside all the “I’m happily married and I’d never do that not for a million billion bajillion dollars!” crap and just think hypothetically for a sec. I mean, I love my girlfriend and all that rot, but really, a million bajillion dollars? Shit, the guy could have her for a whole week!
As for me, I think I could be had for a whole lot less. I think it would only take about half a mil. Probably only half that. Or even half of that half. Hell, I’d do it for $150,000.
If my girlfriend would let me, at least.
So how about it kids? How much:
A. For you to rent your SO’s nookie out?
B. To rent your nookie from your SO?

I personally, would have no problem doing it for about ten grand. I mean, for two minutes of work… uh… did I say two minutes? I meant two hours… Yep. Two hours of work for $10K seems good to me.
My fiancee would probably not be too pleased.
“But Honey,” I would say, “we could pay off the new Honda right away!”
She wouldn’t let me do it, I don’t think, until the student loans were covered too.

Now that I’m married, it would have to be a big chunk of change. Enough to pay off the house and the minivan. And fund the kids’ college educations.
Before that, a simple “I won’t press charges” would suffice.

I’m worth at least $100,000.

Serious consideration would probably start in the $50,000 range. Much less if Baglady said those magic words: “can I watch?”

Fifty million ought to do it…
Oh wait, I thought you meant, how much would Demi demand before she’d sleep with me.
Never mind.

It’d be a hell of a lot less than a million, I can tell you that. Like Lionel Richie, I’m easy like Sunday mornin.

Kinda depends who I’m expected to service, doesn’t it? If we’re talking about your Grandma, my price might be beyond Bill Gates. For Laetitia Casta, it’s cab fare there and back.

Either that, or he didn’t get it…

A. How much is Lola worth? Like the credit card guys say… “priceless”.
B. I don’t have to rent my nookie from Lola, all she wants is total subservience and lifelong devotion plus a ton of hot monkey lovin’. Whatever that is worth I’m happily paying it.

When the Demi Moore/ Robert Redford movie was in the theaters, my then (now ex) SO and I discussed it and decided if either of us were offered a million bucks to have sex with someone, it would be OK as long as afterwards we split the cash.

It’s easy to say, “yeah, I’d put out for $1M” but there’s all that really _messy_ emotional stuff I’d have to put up with from the SO. Even _that_ isn’t worth the money.
And for him? The SO ain’t for sale. He’s mine.

You’d knock her back if she didn’t pay the cab fare???
Me, anyone? 7 pints and a shish kebab. That’s what it usually takes.

How much would it take for you to have sex with a stranger?
Last time it cost me 50 bucks.

Doing someone just for money? Nope, wouldn’t do it. My self-respect is worth more than cash.

Mine’s not.
Negotiatons would probably open around $100,000.

i would be so ridiculously cheap i won’t even quote a price, but afterwards i could (maybe) buy a meal at any of your fancier fast food franchises.

Well, if Mrs. O thought he was good-looking and all, the price would probably start out around $50K. Covers old student loans and a couple other debts. If she didn’t like him at all, we’d be talking a couple mil.
Me? I’m a cheap whore. The $50K would do me fine under any circumstances.
