The going market rates apply to locations where there is an actual market and to vendors (providers) who are familiar with the market. I’ve seen prices sway wildly in smaller cities in more isolated locations.  I’ve also seen newcomer providers quote both way above or below market rates simply because they don’t know what to ask for. 

Do your research.  Check his reviews, ask guys here on CoM to see what they know, find out whatever you can about him.  Maybe you found a hot newbie who’s just entering the business and doesn’t know how to set his prices.  And if you end up hiring him and it’s a good experience, share the details with the rest of us!

I’m not offended, as I’m sure others would think the same thing. But why do you consider it sad? 

I’ll add that I still escort because I enjoy it. It’s a choice. 

Young ones are great when all I want is a show. 
If I want any conversation at all, I skip everyone under 40. 
 

Have you even read this whole thread? Or are you just dropping in to troll?

You are 50 and still on the game? Its quite sad if you want my opinion!

You’re not reading the room here very well.

The confrontation I had with him exposing him for his mediocre service was entertainment for you all: 
 
Don’t say you weren’t warned.

Yet another new name.   This guy has probably used ten different names in the last couple of years.  That's usually a red flag.  

I definitely prefer older guys...there just aren't as many of them available.  In my experience, they tend to be more reliable, professional and play fewer games.  Nowadays it seems like the majority of providers are Latin twinks and that's just not my thing.  Give me a hot, clean-cut guy,  40+ and I'm in heaven.  

As an older provider in my 50s, the majority of my new clients are very close to my age. I think that’s what they’re looking for, someone more like a peer or buddy. It’s a different dynamic than when I was younger and wet around the ears. 

I’m relatively new to this but I find myself looking for 40 and over, and make exceptions to this rule when other specific points of interest are called out in the ad or profile.
its worked well so far.

I’m surprised I’m not alone in this feeling, that I’m not the odd one out here.  I’ve been operating under the (perhaps false) assumption that most people seek those in their 20’s.  Personally, the emotional/psychological aspects are just as important as the physical ones in a BFE.  It is probably dangerous to generalize, but I feel a 20-something cannot offer me that emotional/psychological satisfaction I need.  I’d feel like I’m babysitting (or worse yet, taking advantage of) a child, which is the quickest boner killer for me.

My preference is experienced providers who have done this for several years and who are 35 to 55. 

I know that's right! Lol

I've become more selective when it comes to hiring. I feel for me it's from all the sexual encounters I've had that I know exactly what I'm looking for sexually. So someone has to check off all the boxes otherwise it's not worth my money. For casual hookups I'm more open though.

I’m considerably more selective and more focused on making reliable, drama free, sober regulars 

I've always been selective, but probably more today than before. 

Truthfully, for me, it’s not about age – it’s about confidence. My experience has been that the providers over 40 whom I have engaged have had more confidence and less “hang-ups” than younger men – and by “younger” I mean men under 30. I am of the opinion – and again, this is strictly in my experience - that men don’t really know how to f*ck until they’re 40. I have a fave provider who may well be approaching his mid-50’s, and experience has taught him how to enter and f*ck a man with a precision and expertise that I can only hope to emulate. (For context I’m just shy of 62 and sexually active – which is to say that I was a slut - since 17.) Younger guys are fun – there’s nothing so thrilling as to have something that firm and taut under your hand, or wrapped in your arms, or impaled upon your erection. But I’ve encountered too many young guys who are needy, who want constant reassurance that they’re doing it right, who want to take a break to spark a j*int, who shave their pubes, or they want to pnp, which they failed to tell you that they’re into. No. Give me a man at 40 or beyond with some gray at the temples, a bit of snow on the chest, and a full bush, who also has confidence in the bedroom. As always, your mileage may vary and your preferences are respected. 
 
(There are always exceptions. One of my other current favorite providers has the wisdom of a man 10 years his senior but dude has a very youthful vibe when f*cking – and he’s 32.)

I'm absolutely more likely to engage a provider 40+ 
If desperate, 35 is the absolute youngest. I like men, not boys. There are any number of reasons - the same that I do not seek social relationships with young gay men. Communication styles demand a learning curve from both of us. 
I loved having a long career working alongside performers (and other artists) aged 14- 90, and will gladly hang out with my niece and nephews 20-30's.
On my dime, it's adults only. 
 
 
 

Well reviewed escorts, younger and older are the best choice.  However, if looking for a bit of security, I opt for older, more seasoned providers.  Most scam artists are quickly identified and escorted out of the business and if they have made it to their 40s, are still in the business and still grab your attention chances are they have taken this career seriously or ......they have just gotten out of prison.  I had that experience and he was great.  

I make chicken paprikash all the time, provided you've got real Hungarian paprika in the pantry it's a sure-shot. You can still make it if you don't, it just won't have that black magic.

I appreciate all the advice yall have given me!
 
I will say the idea of daily “walking around” money made me laugh. I’m paying this man $12k for his time, and paying all expenses. I think he has plenty for “walking around” without me giving him more cash.
