Last I checked you don't need to break up with someone you're paying. If you hire a painter or a plumber or a massage therapist and they don't do a good job you just don't hire them again... you don't break up with them. Ask him if he'd like to continue seeing you for free and then you won't have to break up with him b/c he'll break up with you.

That's not an insignificant consideration. 
 

I saw it at the weekend, on a large screen with very good sound, amid a well-behaved audience of fans. 

I enjoyed it greatly. It was tremendous fun. I particularly admired how they incorporated aspects of the original classic film; the filming of those scenes was inspired. I was also surprised that the acting of Cynthia Erivo was so good. 
 
My only small quibble is that we didn’t see enough of Jonathan Bailey’s physique in the love scenes.

Those net worth websites have a pretty large margin of error. They tend to add up reported earnings and make no allowance for their expenses. Half of their gross earnings go to taxes and their agents/managers. And a y properties thry have obviously need to be maintained.
There's a C-list actor who goes to my gym. He's been in recurring roles on a number of shows and is almost always working, but streaming has killed residuals, as far as I can tell he's just living an upper-middle class life in the burbs with a stay at home wife and kids. His net worth is less than $500k on one site and $3 million on another. I could believe either figure.

Well we all get older….if we’re lucky.

I enjoy giving a light spanking before topping, especially if it’s to a muscleboy with a bubble-butt.
I love getting my cock worshipped fully but initially I had a provider who didn’t like the taste of cum. So I had to concentrate on pulling out before climax. It was very frustrating for me.

So on later hirings, I decided to speak about it in advance. I simply related how I wanted to get oral to completion, and not have to worry about pulling out. I offered some flexibility by saying I didn’t care if a guy swallowed my load or not. 
Luckily I met a couple of muscleboys who were skilled oralists. Each of them told me they enjoyed pleasing a top by swallowing loads.

Don't be embarrassed... lots of guys like spanking.

More people need to realize just how common this is. Especially white collar workers whose expertise is mainly navigating their own company's systems. My brothers both got dumped in their late 50s and seem completely unrealistic(to me) on the subject of what they can expect to make and turning down jobs that pay not all THAT much less than they had been making.
Also too many people PLAN to "catch up" on saving in their 50s and 60s, or "just work till they drop" and think their earning power will never go down. That's a recipe for disaster.

They’re indeed professional photos, taken by the great NYC photographer of male bodies R1ck D@y.
Yes, they’re a couple in real life. I just happened to see their IG stories. I can’t recall precise details, but I think putting real names here is prohibited.
 
I can’t help with any info on how well they perform (either singly or as a couple) but they both have good ripped physiques.

Some guys put their travel dates away from their regular location when they are traveling so people know they are NOT in town.
Some guys when they are traveling  are visiting family, can still see clients but only have limited availability. 
Some people just don't know what the scheduled is going to be like on a trip months in advance and don't want to commit until they are sure they can provide. 
It can be a whole host of reasons without jumping to 'he is lying and he never wants to see me again'. 

all true.  Look how many different guys there are and we see all the different attractions.
BUT, you are casting shade - UNNECESSARILY - to suggest that yours is the only view that matters and casting dispersions through a telescope from a distance.
Let it go please or continue proving that there are also different opinions on whether someone has any sense of propriety or not. 

Ask him if he knows who that is to find out if he’s gay 😉

Fair enough.  In a twist, I’ve had some who quoted less than I’m accustomed to paying.  In those cases, I paid the customary rate if they exceeded my expectation.  That’s a form of tip 
But, in general, I think tipping culture is getting whacky right now. 

My avatar is said to have said, "We make a living by what we get. We make a life by what we give."
I, too, have been on the short end of the stick in some transactional relations with younger men. They're sometimes just irresistible, almost like puppies. And though I was out some sums of money, it was never more than I could afford, but apparently enough to make a positive difference in the younger man's circumstances for a time.
And I have never regretted it. When they became scarce or even vanished completely, I missed their company more than I missed the cash, and I always wished them well. And now, as an older and more mature dog myself, I have less energy for the frisky puppies I occasional meet and am more cautious and circumspect in the complications I allow to enter my life.
I applaud you for your charitable impulse in helping the young man when he needed help and hope the warm feeling you get by helping overcomes the chill of feeling used. You are a good man. (And now, maybe a little wiser?) Be happy.

summary of my week of Johnson's visits ending 10/26: 
No sign of Matt who has sold the bar nor do I know if i saw the new owner. Most nights about a dozen dancers but Friday and Saturday twice that....At last a 10-20% contingent of sub-25 white American twunks has returned together with an upgraded fitness model type bodybuilder 10-20% and a few young latins who blend those 2 groups. The rest are the 35-ish latino "filling-out" types and the 25-35 yr old heavy hard muscle guys covered from ear lobe to ankle with tattoos perhaps from state prison. Those last two groups had taken over Johnsons for a while and had run Boardwalk for years.
The winning tactic is to immediately get a $10 private room wristband as when the dancers see that on your wrist they act madly in love with you. Dances have gone up from $20 a song to $25. Agree on a timer on one's phone to count time. !! There's an armchair for the client to sit in and the dancer is over you in front.
Starting with the 10's:
Perfect 10_--There's an Italian guy from Sicily about 25ish with the most perfect model's face on a bodybuilder ever. World's most perfect white skin, black hair, white teeth, deep blue eyes, and smile. He was only there saturday night and i forgot his name. He's aggressive if you have a wrist band on in a nice way. Legs like tree trunks. His back has a complete tatoo but only a couple small ones on his gigantic arms. Obviously a popuar guy with lines to tip him. Could be Malik's better-looking bodybuilder brother. Perfect English . A sure get.
9.5--- A blond 23 yr old Argentine whose name i never understood but think it starts with a C. Absolutely Zero English but uses Google translate. Great 6-pack and physically friendly. I did 5 songs with him and very arousing. The amazing thng is he looks and acts 100% like the screentest of Marlon Brando at 22 I've seen.. Doesn't get much better. 
9.0--- Jackson, a 22 year old blue-eyed twunk from Denver who has traveled all over the world. About 5'8" and amazing face and blue eyes with a soccer player's body. He's there every night even though he also lives in Miami. Hangs around outside or talking to friends a lot and doesn't hustle dances unless you ask him . 
9.0-----6 Ft. Georgio from Argentina. I had assumed this was a Florida country guy with amazing natural body as country guys often have but he's Argentine although he speaks perfect English. Only one that wears only a g-string every night and eager to share his body with a hello (but of course wants a dance set later if possible ). Sweetest , friendliest and sexiest guy there. 
9.0-----5ft 7 Gio from Venezuela. Dark hairless big biceps muscle bod and black eyes. Extremely nice guy.
Those are the best and except for the Italian are there every night.   
 
. 
 

I have been tricked or disappointed by more than one, but while I may have adjusted my tactics accordingly, I think I treat all with respect in our time together.   

Interesting thread and observations @PhileasFogg 
I too like younger men. I’ve always enjoyed the ‘boyfriend experience’ and longer dates allow me to explore and deepen the relationship. 
I agree with the three characteristics listed, especially the third. I want intelligent conversation at dinner and over breakfast. Getting a young person’s perspective on current affairs and politics is of great interest to me.

I’m somewhat vanilla sexually in that I truly enjoy being a top and I’ve no interest in kink. In my 20s, I enjoyed dating goodlooking young men aged 21-35, with fit, muscled bodies. Over the successive decades since then, my tastes haven’t changed at all.
I still prize handsome muscleboys and jocks, especially if they have a compliant nature and like to please. My “focus has evolved” on the physical front: I no longer set great store on fucking; I still want a passionate engagement (kissing & cuddling); I value a skilled cocksucker and I delight in a guy who swallows my load.

Of course! Crossing one of those rivers must be as profound a dislocation as crossing any ocean.

I think that’s an instance of bad auto-correct. IMO it should read “Def NOT safe if misused”
