I'd say consider it a dodged bullet not meeting with him. He's got a sketchy reputation from some people that I consider honest/upright

A little birdie tells me that this particular escort is batshit crazy. Proceed with caution.

I think a well-worded telegram might do nicely. ... Or, carrier pigeon.

IPL is good, but it's definitely now been trumped by BBL (broadband) lasers. Look into things like Forever Young and Halo... These lasers can make huge changes in someone's skin with very little downtime. Now, if you've let it all go and need some serious help, that's when you look into CO2 lasers. Expect a week or more of downtime and some swelling, but it's a surefire way to even out skintone, blemishes and lip/eye wrinkling.

This. Switzerland is beautiful, great money with fantastic people.

My main advice is to book European cities that will serve your 'look' well and not just places you want to be a tourist. The goal is to always come back with more money than you left with- The euro and pound are still quite strong against the dollar. You also have to think about the upcoming European holiday season and how that affects people's hiring habits. Also, take into account that many places in Europe will be bitterly cold/wet/dreary between Dec-April. Not sure how much of that you want to deal with. Please don't ignore Asia if you're able: Shanghai, Beijing, Hong Kong and Tokyo all are hotbeds for an enterprising American male escort. Feel free to reach out by pvt if you need anything

Woah, woah, woah. You initially took the upgrade and left him in coach? Hell, that's grounds for a divorce right there

I totally understand where you're coming from, but your response sorta just proves what I posted before: Don't bank miles, as they'll never be worth more over time. Use them quickly or watch them lose value. I'm not sure what UA is doing these days as I've fallen back on my lifetime status (thanks to my high-mileage days with CO), but AA, with nearly every fare class- excluding basic economy- earn at least 1-1 EQM and EQS. Fare buckets are a little confusing at first, but if you want to fully work the system, you've got to first know your enemy https://www.aa.com/i18n/aadvantage-program/miles/earn/special-fares.jsp

It's antiseptic, but it's a clean, new space with potential. The Tin Room is a shithole: It's not even a sexy kind of dirty. It's just real estate waiting for redevelopment.

Ugh.

I think we should have an entire food discussion dedicated to simple, solid French eateries in NYC When you mentioned Tout, a fantastic place and great selection, it reminded me also of La Veau D'or, a place I loved eating at as a kid and continued to love when I visited the city as an adult. Glad to see they kept it open with a change in the guard.

I understand (and commiserate with) the comment, but being an AA elite, we've dealt with EQD and rolling spend priority for awhile now. It's the new normal across the industry. That said, I'm fine with it. Airlines realize that their programs have gotten too bloated with people who have earned their statues through credit card spend and other non-BIS (butt in seat) avenues. With this being the case, it tries to spread elite benefits too thin to too many flyers. Thinning the ranks is good, for all programs, at this point. As for mileage devaluation, that's always been the case. Always. Since day one of any program. I think of airline miles like I think of mileage on a vehicle... The sooner you trade it in, the better. Cars rarely appreciate. Same with FF mileage. Use those miles as soon as you can. The days of banking them for years is over.

Nothing except for surgery will tighten-up loose skin. What lasers do well is keep sun damage, skin texture and skin tone/pigmentation in-check. Mildly sagging skin can be fixed or minimized by a skilled injector with various versions of HA filler. When skin gets to a point where it begins to look extremely loose or 'jowely,' it's time to consider a mini-lift, brow lift or the whole enchilada facelift. A less-invasive stop gap that can produce good results on a soft jawline is the threadlift.

I gotcha covered... Gallagher's on 52nd. Classic, delicious. I love Frankie & Johnnie's because it's got good memories for me and is easy to do pre or post-show. Palm Too on 2nd. Less crowded than theatreland and all the charm of the now-closed original across the street. Delmonicos on Beaver Some of my favorite places I've had steak aren't really steakhouses. La Boite en Bois serves a mean steak au poivre and Raos in Harlem does an italian-style steak at least once a week on special.

Was this an Applebees-type of place or a higher-end spot? With mass chains, they're now being trained to turn-and-burn. Get em' in, get em' out.

PL used to be great... A long, long time ago. Too many great steakhouses in Manhattan to even consider Luger.

One more thing... Dermal lasers are changing the game: If you can do quarterly treatments, it's a great investment in your skin and how it ages.

Tons of water is a good start. Sleep. Exercise. Limit sun. Moderate, healthy eating. A good plastic surgeon and derma help, even if they aren't doing hardcore work. Skincare topicals only go so far. Korean skincare give you the most bang for your buck. Aging is inevitable, but too many escorts don't do themselves any favors with drugs, alcohol, sun and steroids.

Unless it's something highly illegal, who cares what's on your laptop when you die?

She needs wifi for this. It's the easiest way. I'd suggest https://store.google.com/us/product/nest_cam?hl=en-US. I've used them for years, they're rock solid and the quality of image/sound is fantastic. Arlo, which I've also used, offers a cam over mobile data. It's not a robust as Nest, but it might serve your needs well. https://www.arlo.com/en-us/products/arlo-go/default.aspx

Being called 'Sir' in relation to an escort-client communication can be fucking sexy

As long as you're well-insured and refused to be breathalyzed, I think you'll be fine. ... Wait a sec I thought you said running over an escort in public.

Generic compounding isn't really a thing, as it's a specifically-tailored formula for that exact person. It should really always be done locally. Also, would you really want to inject an off-brand compound, mixed in an unknown place, into your dick? Survey says... No. I bet that the insurance co will fallback on there being non-compound drugs that can get the job done. They'll also, as others here have said, say that functional sex is not a medical need. I get that Trimix is about speed, but if you can learn to live with oral medications, you'll have an easier time staying covered.

This sounds like an essay excerpt from The New York Times Magazine But seriously, I get it. I've spent a considerable amount of time around pilots and they, verbatim, say the same thing. Flying (piloting) is a need, a yearning and something they knew they would do from a very young age. I find that really fascinating. I mean, most people don't even know what they're doing for lunch tomorrow, much less learning to fly a plane. Just remember, if you can't be an athlete, be an athletic supporter: You can always remain close to the industry by going to things like Oshkosh. A friend of mine who can no longer pass medicals to fly now hits all the big airshows in order to stay connected.

Re: Eagles I will say that the Eagle Blue in Tokyo was a fun place for a few drinks. Tokyo is one of the few cities in the world to have two Eagles.
