Joseph Marcus in NYC - $400/HR?

[Vato Loco]

Below is quite a resume attached to his profile, and some pictures to boot.

Is he real>?

I hope he has a roommate who can help him pick up all those names he dropped. http://www.ourgtn.org/public/style_emoticons/default/LOL_flag-2.gif

Well, he doesn't do a very good job of covering his tracks in terms of concealing his identity. (Don't worry! I won't post it.) Let's just say the pics match up with a person who appears to have done the things he mentions in his ad. My hunch, therefore, is that he is for real.

For a massage, 'and more'. 4 Bills...

He mentions in his ad that he received an NSF grant. Those can be quite substantial. Perhaps that's the yardstick by which he measures appropriate compensation for time spent on a project.

Love it when they smile! Maybe that rates the $400/hr rate! LOL

His body is not all that. Especially for $400.

maybe it's 4.00 and the decimal got moved

[Despardo]

For $400 you get, well...very nice eyes. Maybe, he feels his extensive resume creates added value. It would, if he were posting on a dating service. I still remember a comment made by the MC to the performers at a NY strip show, "Remember boys, no one ever stuck his hand into your pants looking for a library card."

Still have a few hundred bahts left over from my one trip to Bangkok due to a miscalculation on my part.

hi, all, so happy my inaugural post actually plays to strengths. i've been a fellowships advisor for college students for many, many years. like others here, i was taken by joseph's looks, but a little skeptical about his story. he was pretty free with "information" when i contacted him and did the appropriate oohing and aahing.

 

eventually, i asked about this NSF grant. it's an amazingly prestigious fellowship, but what many don't know is that the fellowships he described actually go to college graduates with limited hours of graduate study. they can be used overseas, but only if a graduate degree program requires it or allows it. so, i asked him if he'd won the award for his own graduate study, or if he'd been hired as a more senior scholar's research assistant (allowed in that category of awards). he said, "it's complicated, but it's a little of both."

 

in a nutshell, the answer is bullshit. either joseph won the award for his own graduate study toward a ph.d., or he didn't. he back-pedalled a little, but he's a scammer.

 

the dead give-away, in my experience, is the insane amount of name-dropping. (in his first reply to me, he said he'd have to be brief because he was heading out of town to give a lecture at an unnamed university in the mid-atlantic. oh? wow.)

 

just my bias, i know, but my god, i have no patience for this kind of posturing. he obviously thinks it works, and in all likelihood, it does sometimes.

Maybe he gets an extra $100 for smiling so pretty for the camera. Love it when they smile!

Hmm, I have a mutual friend in common with him. Maybe I can get in there for free. haha

[BaronArtz]

He doesn't have the body of somebody who did crew on a daily basis ...

That's a classic Joan Rivers quote and he stole it from her. That bastid!!!!

Cute kid....but not cute enough for a $ 4oo fee. Also sounds a little mental....so for $ 400 I don't need to deal with people with "issues".

[fedssocr1]

I always chuckle when I see prices that are greatly out of line with the market. If he manages to get somebody to pay it, I guess more power to him. If he had model looks maybe...

Honestly for $ 400 even if you are a porn star...I'm only gonna cum ONCE ! ha

[GoldenGrill]

$400/hour and he can't comb what's left of his hair for a photoshoot?

[creoleblanche]

Sorry - totally off subject. I love your avatar Vato Loco. What's it from?

[jjkrkwood]

Beautiful eyes, but that's about it, unless he's also buying me dinner at Red Lobster ?
