Good points, **brickbacon** , thanks. Basically, I was just positing that I think that of all the reasons why men would use high-dollar escort services, the expectation that they would be shielded from exposure is probably one of the more minor ones. I think for most agency customers, it’s basically about convenience (i.e., ease of procurement) and the expectation of a “classy” girl…as you so state. ---

I’d hit it and keep on going for decades, like the rotten economic conditions of Upstate New York :rolleyes: ---

[QUOTE=brickbacon] No, it probably doesn’t. It could be argued that he didn’t [pay](http://www.slate.com/id/2186491/) enough. I think the article makes a good argument. A prostitute that works for an agency that advertises is gonna be on someone’s radar. While it’s difficult for a man of Spitzer’s notoriety to find such women, I think he would have been at far less risk had he been more judicious and discrete. [/QUOTE] I heard it was Spitzer’s bank that actually started this. They saw money moving and odd things happening to it, so they looked around. ---

[QUOTE=asterion] Hmm…She’s pretty good looking but instead I think masturbating to the pictures and then buying a new $5000 HDTV is a better choice. Edit: Great minds think alike, don’t they **NurseCarmen**? Then again, I’m not sure I want my porn in HD. [/QUOTE] Thats too funny! And a much better value for sure. She is cute, nice body, but not someone I would notice too much on the street. She looks like a cross between Sandra Bullock and Sarah Silverman to me. And in the first picture it looks like she has a fat pussy :eek: but its prob. just the white bikini… ---

On the one hand, she’s not really hot: I could pass by several (not dozens, really, but at least a handful) hotter than that just walking across UCF (which I haven’t done in a long time…I’ll be in my bunk.) On the other hand, she is hotter than all but one of the people I’ve ever seen in porn or that are purportedly hookers\*. So why is it that non-beautiful (but usually not ugly) people tend to get into those careers disproportionately? Or perhaps the beautiful ones tend to be more successful at keeping it discreet. And a third thing. She’s DEFINITELY hotter than all the falling-apart worldwide scandal superstars. (What can I say? I like the girl next door type. Nina also happens to have that same sort of oval-ish type face that I like in girl-next-door-type, if a bit too cheekbony. She also does NOT have a blonde-hair and bronzed skin combo which is a turnoff when natural but disgusting when artificial. If I can’t tell where your hair ends and your skin begins it’s time to change one or the other.) \*But the ONE totally made up for the hundreds (dozens?) of other dogs 🙂 ---

[QUOTE=Least Original User Name Ever] I heard it was Spitzer’s bank that actually started this. They saw money moving and odd things happening to it, so they looked around. [/QUOTE] Yes, because he was [smurfing](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structuring). Also, the money was going to an shell company AFAIK, which would have triggered suspicion. It wasn’t the amount of money alone, but where it was going, and how it was being withdrawn. ---

[QUOTE=Gestalt] This is kind of bitchy, but I heard she was 5’5" and 105 lbs, so I was expecting more waifish. Does she look 105 to y’all? Gestalt. [/QUOTE] Of course she’s not, I’m sure the service routinely knocks 20 pounds off when advertising…because guys don’t have a realistic perception of weight and women. And she didn’t get 5K for an hour. the $4300.00 was for 2 hours and included a hefty “deposit” for the next time…+ there was about 8 hours of travel time— door to door, both ways involved. ---

[QUOTE=RickJay] She’s a beautiful woman. But for $5K, she’d better bring her college twin friends Amy and Amelia, a Twister set, four gallons of Mazola, spend the entire night, and do my taxes the next morning. I mean, you’d think a guy with Spitzer’s power could pick up chicks if he wanted. A couple of drinks isn’t going to cost you five big ones.

A relative who used to work as a manager for the IRS told me that $5000 has traditionally been the amount at which automated illegal-activities-and-other-unsavory-things detection systems kick in and a bank transaction gets red-flagged. If that’s still true today, and if Spitzer did indeed pay $5000 in one transaction, he and whoever handles the billing at the hookerplex are monumental idiots. ---
