> [@Yakuza](#): > > I always thought $100 or more was upscale. I look at them $20 and $30 hookers as low grade Upscale is Billie Piper’s character in “Secret Diary of a Call Girl” making thousands per session. Though I suppose for a guy living out of a storage shed, a $100 hooker is pretty classy. Kind of like being the world’s tallest dwarf. ---

Well if all this is true, then good for you! Allthough spending half your income on prostitutes seems a bit much to me as well. I hope you can ‘turn off’ the vibe of buying girlfriends while with the girls, because you will be taken advantage of. The planning to the same for a decade makes this whole thing stink up the smell test, you might meet a girl next week. Ispend my faor share of time with working girls, but I only pay for sexy time and am in no way looking for a relationship…I’ve heard of too many people fucking up their lives because of some working girl to ever be tempted going that route. ---

> [@Ambivalid](#): > > How do you think God feels about you enabling the drug addictions of many of the escorts you frequent? And make no mistakes, $100 escorts are virtually _all_ addicted to drugs of some kind. God is understanding, he knows why I associate with escorts so therefore I am not guilty of any sin. I don’t associate with escorts who I know have a drug addiction. U might say how do I know if all of them have an addiction. Well I’m not contributing 2 anyone’s drug addiction because what they do with the money is they business. Would Microsoft be guilty of enabling one of their emloyees 2 buy drugs because one of their workers have an addiction ---

> [@Idle\_Thoughts](#): > > Chessic Sense, there should be no excuse to why you’d think it was okay to bluntly insult someone in this forum. Consider this a warning. Yes there is an excuse why **Chessic Sense** would think it was okay to write what he did. Because he used it to lead directly to his next paragraph, in which he offered some direct constructive criticism that might be of practical use to Mr. **Yakuza**. (One could argue separately whether that advice is likely really to help.) But still, calling it as he sees it should be justifiable if it’s to lead to some constructive remark, as opposed to just the usual snark. ---

> [@Yakuza](#): > > I find my escorts on the internet. For legal purposes, I’m not doing anything illegal because money spent on escorts is for donations and socializing (know what I’m saying) I’ve never got robbed. This is why I don’t associate with a lot of different escorts because with the more escorts u meet, u never know if one is go set u up. As far as diseases, well a lot of things in life are risks. Diseases can be caught by escorts and free girls I’m sure a judge will agree with your brilliant legal analysis there. ---

That guy doesn’t know everything in life so why shoukd he be allowed 2 insult someone just 2 make his criticism more noticeable. I don’t live 4 him and I have nothing 2 prove 2 him so he doesn’t have the right 2 insult anyone ---

> [@Yakuza](#): > > I posted this subject 4 the purpose of trying 2 get more people in society 2 accept that there is nothing evil about escorts. My brother hates me for associating with escorts, and there are probably other people in my life who hate me 4 this. Hopefully I can contribute 2 making this a world where escorts are accepted by more people so guys like me won’t have any family and friends problems If advocating for the acceptance of escorts was your purpose for posting, why did you not instead post on a religious site where people might be more harshly judgemental of the practice? Especially since you are into God, and might have more connection with people on these sites. You could inspire them to look at escorts in a whole new way, and you might even get lucky, and find some lonely bible thumper who wants to pity and save you from yourself. And she might even want to do you free of charge. ---

Why is it going to take you 10-15 years to become a manager? Is the competition in your store that tough? I work in retail, and store manager turnover is something in the neighborhood of 35%. Surely if you’re a good worker it wouldn’t take long to become, at least, assistant manager after only a couple of years. I have to say that becoming a retail manager by 2025 is not what we call a “stretch” goal. ---
