> [@SamuelA](#): > > When they ask something not obvious. It’s not obvious that you would need to coerce women in a city with so many when offering a weeks pay in an hour. From what you’ve been saying you pay $300/hour to get laid plus a base cost of $1,400 round trip airfare plus $150 for a hotel for the weekend. It costs you $1,850 to get laid I’ll assume three times so you’re paying ~$620 to get off. By your theory, that women don’t need to be coerced if you’re paying them a week salary per hour, you could afford hot women making $32K per year here in the US so you can bang up to $15/hr. Why aren’t you propositioning the minimum wage hotties where you live? ---

Why aren’t you propositioning the minimum wage hotties where you live? Increase the numbers. 10 days. Airfare was $770, Lufthansa. 35 a day to stay in an apartment. 1-2 encounters per day. And yeah, at that rate it’s only a little better than local, where a stripper was charging me 340 plus I have to drive an hour to see her. ---

It’s not going to change for [at least a month](https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=878553). ETA: unless you mean change for the better, which is probably what you meant. In which case you’re right, this could be quickly changed to a banning. ---

To be honest, it’s more likely that Hillary sold all our Uranium to Russians visiting her in the basement of her _Pizza & Pedo’s_ restaurant than it is that Sammie Apstein here banged a $500 hooker in the Ukraine. Or the US, for that matter. ---
