Just like I have no desire to pay by the act as opposed to the meet, I have no willingness to discuss add-ons and fees. Set your rates (with uber transportation costs included) but don't break them down into add-on fees.. it's a turn-off. It's bad enough dealing with that shit booking hotels, rental cars, and airlines.

Never met him nor did I try, but I used to see this same or similar ad with same pictures (based in California) going many many years back. I think he may have used the name without LV or some similar variation. Sorry I can't be more help.

RIP. I hope Daddy and Hooboy are having a beer and reminiscing. Thanks to the moderators for all the hard and thankless work you did with a special big hug for @Cooper . Deepest sympathy to all the forum, members, escorts, family and friends. This site will be missed.

Just found and binged this show to current episode in season 3. I did watch the Fosters on and off which helps getting into the show (and understanding most of the cameos) but isn't necessary to enjoy it as there are a lot of new characters.

Now Apocalypse coming to Starz
down_to_business replied to LoveNDino's topic in TV and Streaming services
Just got around to binge watching this show. It was very weird but fun.. just don't expect too much. Unfortunately it was cancelled after one season and leaves a lot unresolved. -
I'm never going to be the person to "pull shenanigans" on an escort.. but the most "disgruntled" I ever was when an escort slipped away to do an overnight with another client while I had hired him for a weekend. Number two was the escort trying to blackmail me, which was only not #1 because he didn't succeed in anything after ripping me off. Third was the one who no called and no showed on me costing me prepaid airfare, but also gave me a bad review for reviewing him for the no show.

If you could have chosen your first name, what would it be?
down_to_business replied to Merboy's topic in The Lounge
My name was a compromise from an argument over which Maverick to name me after, Brett or Bart. Personally I have always liked: Ryan or Scott or Connor -

WandaVision on Disney+
down_to_business replied to + poolboy48220's topic in TV and Streaming services
It's odd. Right now I am more interested in where it is leading to rather than the episode itself, but I'm hoping to be rewarded for my patience. I think I will be. -
Is there something wrong/immoral about hiring? My thoughts...and yours
down_to_business replied to Merboy's topic in The Deli
I don't consider it immoral but it isn't any sense of pride for me either. The experience itself that I have with the escort also helps my thoughts on this subject (i.e. a good experience makes me feel better about it and the opposite as well). I agree that decriminalization would improve this for all. -
The second part of that question is --- I would definitely not appreciate being asked for a tip. It has happened only twice. I wouldn't in that case, period, and probably wouldn't rehire. The first part, how I decide is a combination of many factors like others have mentioned.... including rate and going above and beyond (i.e. the escort drove 1 hour to meet me, or the escort picked me up at the airport). Most of the time, I reward good service by repeat hiring and great service with longer appointments in the future (i.e. overnight, weekend etc.).

I would say the provider missed out on a potentially awesome client. It is ok to give someone a second chance (or not) but definitely if you do, do not outlay extra money for things like a hotel etc. until you can establish/repair trust.

Only Fans/Just for Fans: the good and bad ones
down_to_business replied to tarquinius's topic in The Lounge
I must be the only one to not have even one ounce of interest in this whole model/concept. Will never be joining this or any other site like it. More power to you who do enjoy it! Different strokes... -
He has posted recent pictures in his ad showing exactly what he looks like. I have seen him more than once (including recently) and wouldn't hesitate to give my endorsement. I agree with everything @Howard123 said. He is definitely an English speaker.

Making my final arrangements, finding it overwhelming
down_to_business replied to a topic in The Lounge
All I took was whatever I could fit into my car. Got rid of everything else. It's was a painful concept for me to let possessions go, but I can say there have only been a handful of things I have really missed. A minor inconvenience here and there and a couple of trips to WalMart and I was fine. Good luck on your next stage of life. -
Will save the spoilers... but I find this show good and I didn't see the season 2 finale coming! What a great end of storyline arc. They already announced 2 spinoffs too.
-
It's mildly entertaining. Wouldn't have started it if I would have known what happens to the (spoiler free) actor or actress I originally tuned in because of. It should be a one and done season show.

Recently had a theft - first time ever
down_to_business replied to DallasClient's topic in The Lounge
My two cents....Theft requires intent. We definitely cannot assume there was intent based on the story given. -
Paying Hourly Rate for Dinner?
down_to_business replied to Ntoomuscle's topic in Questions About Hiring
Yes. If you invite him to dinner without making it clear to the escort beforehand that it is off the clock, you are definitely expected to pay his hourly rate. If he asks you out to dinner after to discuss real estate, then no, you should not be expected to pay his hourly rate. As others have suggested, definitely clarify before doing it so no one is left unprepared. -
What are some ways to gain more regulars?
down_to_business replied to Jarrod_Uncut's topic in Questions About Hiring
I guess the common theme with escorts becoming regulars with me are: Friendly, respectful, reliable, trustworthy, appear happy to see me we have good chemistry they don't treat me like an ATM or make me feel taking for granted they minimize cell phone usage when with me / give me their attention -
Similar Forum For Client Reviews by Providers
down_to_business replied to + MysticMenace's topic in Questions About Hiring
Following that thought, why do you think there are plenty of review sites where service providers are reviewed in the general business world ( i.e. lawyers, doctors, restaurants, lawn services, plumbers etc.) but not of businesses publishing reviews of their customers. -
Would you tell your provider that you know his real name?
down_to_business replied to Yeahman's topic in The Lounge
Nothing good can come from lifting the anonymity veil if even one side doesn't want it. Sometimes it's better to just keep things to yourself. Your companion will let you know when (or if) there is a time he wants you to know his real name. I usually let the provider set the pace for disclosure of PII (personally identifiable information) if it is someone I plan on seeing more than once. Building mutual trust over a long term association is healthy for both parties. I have come to share real names, addresses, phone numbers, birthdays and a host of information with my closest escorts. -
You are correct, every one of those prescription programs I have seen,have exclusions for medicare , the VA, and medicaid etc.
