How many of you here would pick a full time job over escorting or the other way around? What would be the minimum you would have to earn per hour in full time job? If you had better qualifications would have you not gone into escorting? Or is the money easier in escorting that you wouldn't choose any other way?

 If I had better qualifications, I doubt, I would choose to work in escorting. Though I prefer how you can make more than a day's wages in an hour The only two downsides I see to escorting is std's and if people find out, it can ruin your name.

I started escorting when I was in a full-time job earning a good wage but the pressure of the job was killing me and I was (and still am) young.

My first 'client' wasn't through the internet and I had no advert up. We met in real life under quite normal circumstances so everything was honest i.e he knew my real name and at that time I didn't call myself an escort.

Long story short, he paid my rent and bills and I started to take more time off work (because I could afford to), rent and bills turned into enough money to live on and I quit my job and studied something I was passionate about at home. More of a Mistress or Sugar Daddy situation. We met twice a month overnight.

After a few months at home I ended up using AW and gained a small regular client base whom I am really happy with.

I think it is possible to work part-time for full time pay, I definitely don't work full time. I am lucky to have some one reliable who is my main source of income but I don't think I would of considered being an escort if I thought I would be sleeping with different men daily.

My fee is a little higher than most ladies in the area, but for longer bookings it works out very reasonable. I enjoy what I do but I put alot of effort into it and genuinely build strong relationships with my clients. If I charged less or met more clients I don't think I would enjoy it as much.

I have a nice balance of work and free time as I have a busy life outside of work.

I would only go back to full-time work if it wasn't something civilian as such, I would run my own business full-time but not work for some one else.

Hi,

I work full time in an office doing something I have a degree in. On the side I am a wg. Have considered working part time in the office and do more escorting and incalls. But  my personal preference is to have something steady that pays the bills (just my opinion that my office job feels like that!). What happens if you get ill? Could be a flu or something more serious and you can not be a wg? I live in Holland, in case you are ill you get your salary anyway for a pretty long time. A friend of mine who was a wg full time had a skin condition that put her out of business for a while. Luckily she saved money in case this would happen. She also now has a job at a company working 32 hours per week and is a wg on the side.

But whenever a nice client visited me and am setting the alarm for the next morning.... I really wish I was doing this full time:-). Way more exciting than an office job!

Sorry for the long reply.... In short: So not only the std's or the risk of being outed keeps me from working as a wg full time. I get a sense of stability and financial security from my "day job".

I have to say that I'm also really enjoying having a civvy career with a little bit of escorting on the side. It takes the pressure off both sources of income, and variety in life is fab.

Unfortunately, I cannot stay this way forever as I'm paranoid about meeting someone while escorting who I later bump into in my other life. Even though I'm in London, it's still a small world out there and I've already met people in my escorting life that I may well meet again - awkwardly! - later. It's not going to be helpful as any sane client who meets an escort in a civvy work situation would run a mile in order to protect his reputation (especially if he has a wife and family, etc) so that might leave me with a rather tricky situation to explain to colleagues...!

So escorting will have to go sooner or later. Which is a shame, but nothing lasts forever.
