Just my view on the subject...

*shrug* I consider "worth" a meaningless concept when used that generally, as some sort of objective determination, whether to claim that a lady's service
are not "worth" a certain price or that they
are "worth" a certain price. The only things we know for sure are: (1) at what price is she willing to sell her service; and (2) at what price are others willing to buy her service. To say her services are "only worth" $100, if she's not willing to sell at that price, has no meaning, because there will be no transaction. Similary, to say her services are "worth" $10,000, if no one is willing to buy at that price, has no meaning, because there will be no transaction. A transaction between a willing seller and a willing buyer establishes "value." What else is there?
Realistically, of course, the vast majority of the price determinations -- by either side of the aisle -- are by definition "reasonable" because there are counter-parties available at that price. If not, those individuals are no longer part of the community. (If he can't find anyone willing to sell her services at his maximum price, he'll find other forms of entertainment. If she can't find anyone willing to buy her services at her minimum price, she'll find another way to earn a living.) For all the others, he may not have as many choices as he'd like, and she may not have as many appointments as she'd like, but both are able to find a willing counter-party to the transaction.
You can say a lady is "worth whatever she decides to charge" if you like, but her decision is subject to limits, or all of the ladies would raise their rates to $1,000/hour. Saying she's worth whatever rate she selects has no objective meaning outside of whether she gets enough business at that rate. (And particularly not if you're not willing to see her at that rate.) As an affirmation to help her feel good about herself, it's fine.
But that's
all it is.
My view on the subject. *shrug* They don't call me an opinionated curmudgeon for nothing.
