Escorts, like every other sales gig in the world, range in income from minimum wage to maximum earnings depending on the who, what, where, when, how, how many and how much as they ply their trade.
Sales is the lowest menial task and the highest calling. Figuring out how to market oneself - the who doing what, where and how, is as important as the how many and how much they are selling.
Funny thing about life is we all wind up as sales persons, some of us sell our time and talent for income. Some of us sell more time than talent, some sell more talent than time, but everyone earning an income is wrapped up in the dynamic of time/talent/treasure.
Hopefully as we each gain treasure, we learn to devote less time and more talent to gaining more treasure. And why the fuck not?
There are escorts who deserve a mere pittance for their pitiful performance while there are escorts who deserve our every last dime for their PERFORMANCE.
I have experienced both the awkward blow-job and the incredible scene and I never thought the awkward guy deserved more nor the incredible scene guy deserved less.
Bottom line to this discussion is, "You really do get what you pay for." Great escorts deserve great income. Poor escorts deserve poor incomes. And clients either get what they paid for or they get fucked. LOL!
