After the hobby

[8o88arker]

So, this is mainly for the ladies but I'm not excluding anyone. Ladies what are you plans after the hobby game? Now I know some of you already have RL jobs/careers and kudos to you if you do, can't imagine working more than one job. You don't have to be uncomfortably truthful although it's nice. I was pondering this as I took a shower this morning. And yes I am new this is my first post, and no I haven't seen any of the beautiful providers here YET. Still a wee bit gun shy lol so to speak. Anyway everyone have a great day.

Cheers

While I've seen a few make a total break upon leaving, it's much more of a common scenario that "You can take the girl out of the hobby but you can't take the hobby out of the girl."

This was something I was wondering, are they like smart oil field guys get in while he money's hot then get out? Is it genuinely enjoyed (I'm sure it's a dumb question)? Or has anyone ever retired from this?! Dare is say.

Now I'm confused- you have an employer matching funds? Very kind manager?

If this is true, I'm in the wrong business!

Save $ , put $ aside, settle down & work with the peace of mind knowing you have your rainy day emergency fund.

[LustyBustyGina38FF]

from every appt and save it and put away
have to have a nest egg .. you be amazed how much you can save up in a month

Unfortunately in my opinion the majority of the ladies do not appear to save up or have a rainy day fund much less a retirement plan in order.

The wise ones have real jobs which allow them to have healthcare of some sort and use hobby money to supplement their income.

This is what I would figure would be the smart option. Some though, I'm assuming here, make only enough for the short term. The long term is a whole other story. And let's be honest rainy day money doesn't last but for one rainy day. I'm not trying to bad mouth anyone here, just conversing.

+1000 % I sure a lot of ladies have not put a plan in for the What IF
as being self employed person all my adult life you lean how to budget
as there my be a day or week or month where there no income
and some only make it form day to day or week to week
and that's fine for the short of it.. But you can make a lot if you plan out
and don't go crazy spending on over priced things witch all of us ladies love ...
and take that money you just spent on then 1500$ shoes that hurt your feet but hell they look so sexy on you when you leg up in the AIR!!
put it in savings or money market act or CD or something ..

LBGina, you're right on all points. The ladies living day-to-day in hotels are usually not putting money away for emergency. And they love to spend on pretty little things. Ladies, you're in business and need to work it that way. Be safe and smart.

I agree, it would be foolish to spend the money especially what some women charge. Am I complaining about them charging no, not the point. Point is with the donations one date is what some people make in 2-3 days of work. I'd be saving like crazy. But just a thought.
