Why is that the bulk of wg' s that one encounters always plead poverty. Last time I checked the bulk of the girls here on ESA charge between R500 and R700 per hour, some below, and some more, some way more. That is more than a visit to my GP, and I see him only a few times a year. From what I understand now, there are guys that see their favourite girls once a week. That is one punter, not even considering the other regulars and new clients. Yes of course I'm not trying to say wg's earn what GP's earn, but wg's also didn't study the number of years that it takes to become a doctor or paid an arm and a leg to get the qualification. I'm not a medical doctor (a love doctor yed) but it took me 5 years to pay off whatever study debt I had once I started working. Medical interns earn about R350k per month according to the Department of Health website last I checked. That is R29k a month, BEFORE tax. The median income of a PA in South Africa is R133k according to payscale dot com. That is R11k a month BEFORE tax and they put children through school and own a car, have medical aid and save for retirement. I emphasise the tax because most wg's (if not all) do not pay tax on their income. Considering the country we live in and the latest stats on levels of income, wg's that advertise on ESA must be in the top quartile of earners in SA. The bulk of people in the country are either unemployed or earn minimum or just above minimum wage.
But whenever you speak to some wg's then its eish, business is slow. I'm willing to bet wg's on ESA on average earn more than the average punter that supports them. I'm not talking about the profession in general, only the type of wg that can afford to register on this site, and also not all wg's on here, as I have plenty of examples of ladies that after years in the business have something to show for it, owning property, a decent car, and have some investments, and some are studying to do something better. And I mean really studying, because that's another thing, every second wg says she is studying, but after seeing her for 5 years, you wonder what happened to those studies.
I'm talking here about the ladies that have been years in the business, yet only has the money from the last week's clients in their pocket to show for their efforts.
And maybe I'm a bit harsh, because it's not just a wg phenomenon, but it can't be an easy job to do, hiding what you do from friends and family, opening your legs up to strangers, and not always sure what could walk through the door next. But at least have a plan and make it worthwhile so that you know what you did was not in vain. And please stop telling us about business being slow and how tough things are. I'm not saying you are rich, but you are able to earn a living and on a good month you earn way more than the rest of this country, but use it wisely and do not just think about today, but about tomorrow and also about rainy days.
