[Finman22]

So Grace, back to my original question, are you seeing a slowdown in business yet?

See how silly it sounds? For the ladies, this is a business. Walmart doesn't care about your financial situation. Kroger doesn't care about your financial situation. The gas stations very visibly don't care about your financial situation. But because you're having sex with a provider, she is supposed to be different? While I care about my regulars and tend to be quite generous with my time and grandfathering old rates-- if someone cannot see me at the lowest rate I offer, then we aren't a match at that time. That doesn't make me uncaring--

The best option is to select ladies that can give you what you want at a price that doesn't put you in a financial bind. That's how commerce works. For one guy-- that means looking for $200/hr. For another, that means $400/hr.

Tricks are gonna be less caring with these crazy gas prices, specially when I include my gas spent to find them 😆, I start deducting when I leave the house, they're gonna have to start paying me soon if gas gets any higher 😂

With all of the upcoming hyperinflation I've had to get creative with my hobby budget.

you definitely stole all the words. also id like to point out the importance of good interpersonal communication skills. if a potential client were to be transparent and respectful 9 times out of 10 im way more willing to work with current situations. that just takes a little vulnerability from the clients end and i understand it takes a level of security to be open like that.

In the interest of fairness and full disclosure-- I'm in the middle of getting ready to come back after an almost 3 year absence. But-- I can say my pre-bookings for my Dallas trip are at about the level they would normally be. Having said that, I have a pretty long list of regulars in the DFW market, so it may play differently when I tour elsewhere.

It also helps that price wise, I tend to play towards the lower end for someone with my skills, looks, and review history. That also helps. I haven't joined the 400 club and really don't have any plans to.

I don't think it's necessarily a slowdown in business for the providers but rather SATURATION of the market. (More seller than buyers)

I counted 271 escorts on Tryst in Dallas at $400-$600 hour which I think we can all say is fair compensation.

Not sure if there's a market for all those women.

[Barny Stinson]

yea gas prices and websites being down has put a halt to my hobby funds, I just don't have the time and gas to drive from ft worth to Dallas to play. its hard to find ladies in ft worth that I want to spend time with and the one agency here seems to only have the ladies I prefer while I am at work. its frustrating. might actually get a girlfriend. probably easier. hahaha

[Bald Bryan]

I can get to & from most any incall by using a maximum of 2 gallons of gas. So basically adding on at most like $10 isn't a deal breaker for me. However, the general rise in hourly rates has been a reason why I maintain my "low volume" status.

[City_Punk77]

If gas reaches 8$ a gallon, I'm going to cycle to every incall from now on.

[IMAPACKIN]

Mental: "some"?😂😂😂😂

[Cheburashka]

I two-wheel it. Over 50 mpg and lightning fast. Just sayin'.
