How much? Any idea?

Recommended Posts

Struggling to pay my quarterly estimated taxes today (ugh) I was looking through my bank accounts and expenditures. Just for grins, I have a pretty good idea of how much I have $pent on our mutual hobby over the last couple of years. Since I’ve been a “customer” for a good 20+ years, I’m guessing the amount spent on travel, hotels, gifts, fees, and miscellaneous for all that time would be enough to own a villa in the south of France. The amount of 20 years’ worth of food, automobiles, clothes, rent, etc. is likewise overwhelming. So, how much do you think you’ve spent over the years on hiring, wining annd dining, and fooling anround? Our hobby ain’t cheap, fellas. My guess? $150K or more. This would include several week long vacations to Hawaii, Thailand, etc.

As with my tab for cognac and Cheez-Its, I do not keep an accounting of the cost  my vices.

I have only been in the game, so to speak, for about 10 years. My total expenditure is far lower than your estimate - not gonna give you the exact number but lets just say if I had it piled up today, I could be driving a new Porsche tomorrow.  Interesting enough, I slowed down significantly during Covid and have not returned to my pre-Covid pace as of yet. Should I add that to my goals for 2024?? 😋

If anyone has underutilised budget then I’d like to remind them that I am available with a wide range of price points. Cheapest option is a month subscription to my justforfans - great value. 

As always, you’re the problem solver!  Thank you.

Escorts with whom I had a long association went on the payroll as, in the course of the hire, I employed them, legitimately, as "personal assistants" collecting and delivering me from and to the airport, driving, valeting, keeping me on schedule to appointments, etc.

My vices expenditures in 2023 were so much lower than my budget, my accountant checked on me in October to see if I had a different plan for the money.

I’m imaging that the conversation started something like this:

 “Hi it’s your accountant. There’s enough money lying around in your ‘hobby’ fund to buy a new house….”
