Ah, I can get that, if it’s at a hotel. That might be affordable occasionally, as long as he doesn’t overspend on the chauffeured limousines to and from. ETA: But he couldn’t do that every night! Or even most nights! That would end up costing vastly more than having an apartment of his own, and certainly more than $800 a month. Maybe once or twice a week? Where does he sleep the rest of the nights? Still, what I would like to hear Mr. **Yakuza** focus on is the street smarts for successful homeless living, in general, like I said. ---

As for where I sleep, I sleep at one of the wi-fi spots which happens 2 be open 24 hours. I buy stuff in there sometimes so it won’t seem like bumming off of them. And when I said I go 2 the escorts house or hotel, I was referring 2 where I go 2 see the escorts. The ones I go see at the hotels be the ones that are from out of town on tour ---

“On tour”?? Back in my day, hookers did not have a roadshow. They tended to work the same locations and would relocate as needed. They did not go out on tour. Learn something new every day. How times change - the Internet must have made it easier for a client to track these touring companies and arrange for assignations. Definitely a different business model than what I had known. ---

But you’d better hurry, as it seems the mods are beginning to shut down **Yakuza** ’s threads, like [this one](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=646725). ---

Goshdarnit, I’m gonna miss the big lug. ☹ He had a point, too - escorts really can be less expensive in the long run than free girls, and they can be counted upon to shut up and go away when you tell them to, too. ---

Im kind in the same position… Women have NEVER been interested in me at all… Im NOT wealthy, and in fact cannot work(bad knees and unhirable due to memory issues and lack of work history that can be verified)… The ONLY income I have now is plasma donation… When I used to live i vegas the ONLY time ive ever had sexin the last 20 years was with escorts… So I know where your coming from… I now live in portland(free housing luckily due to my disability), and everything here is VERY expensive, and escorts cost DOUBLE what theyd cost in vegas, and VERY hard to find a good one… So I understand your issues trust me… Its been over 15 years now since ive messed around with anyone… Thank heavens for free computer porn, its a life saver, and MUCH CHEAPER!🆒 ---
