Escorts: Economy Good, Raise Your Rates

[nysprod]

As you can see in the picture below, the yield curve (ratio of long term/short term treasuries) is rising steeply, a sure sign that the economy is good and will be getting even better.

Actually, if you girls are smart, instead of burning that hard earned $$ on 420, you'll take a nice pile of it and invest in an Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) that rises in value as interest rates on treasuries rise (and price falls), a so-called inverse ETF.

We're still at the very beginning of a great bear market in U.S. government bonds even though the 10 year has gained 60-odd basis points this year...this is likely to last decades because as the Fed inevitably slows and then reverses it's massive quantitative easing programs, bond prices can only* go down (and rates up).

But don't just believe me...take the word of genius trader (and notorious ladyboy player) Marc Faber. Also, George Soros.

Remember ladies, you'll never go broke selling expensive stuff to rich people, of which there are more of every day.

*I say "only" in terms of months and years-forget daily fluctuations.

This small bump won't last. We still have a slow real estate market, high unemployment numbers, and uncounted underemployment numbers right now, plus a student debt bubble on the horizon.

Real estate has surpasssed pre-crash levels in many areas...new car sales are thru the roof...the Fed reported that household wealth has been restored. Can't get a restaurant reservation in NYC and buyers are coming with all cash offers for the few available apartments.

To be fair, I'm in SoCal - ground zero for the real estate crash.

Sorry, I guess I missed the news last month, but a Google search shows that prices are in fact back on the rise. I'm still skeptical, though.

hmm.. yeah.. so escorts raise their rates, but then even clients who can afford the rise go elsewhere since they don't want to pay more lol..

the us economy is still in the shitter, and will be for the rest of the decade. and since when is economic health judged solely by bonds? lol..

If that were true, no one would buy a BMW when a perfectly good Subaru is available for 1/3 the cost.

B+ girls and above in major MSA's who position themselves correctly will indeed do very well.

Either bring a needle and thread to sew it up or, if it's too far gone, a drill so you can make a fresh new one. Like getting some Barely Legal while committing a hardcore felony with intent.

Google, feds, mainstream news...one in the same. ALL LIARS!! Republican, Democrat...just a shell game to distract. All government is about is power, wealth, and control...of YOU (yes liberal, conservative, atheist, agnostic, anarchist). We will ALL be in the line of fire soon enough, truth too unpleasant to face, recognize, acknowledge, is truth nonetheless. The economy is in ruins, the numbers are fixed, and the U.S. is not under American Idealism any longer. Take that to the bank! Or better yet hide it in/ under your mattress...

Not quite sure how the government "fixes" it when you can't into expensive restaurants or when people show up with millions in cash to buy apartments.

There is, however, a conspiracy among developers to build luxury housing...for students away from home at college.

Fed's not raising rates, just tapering bond purchases.

TAPIR: a member of the pig family. spends most of their day swimming, sun bathing, sleeping and rolling in mud. preferred diet of berries and bugs.

Fed's not raising rates, just tapering bond purchases.

Treasury prices tumbled and yield on the 10yr jumped a massive 21 basis points after Bernanke's comments yesterday:

“If the incoming data are broadly consistent with this forecast, the committee currently anticipates that it would be appropriate to moderate the monthly pace of purchases later this year,” Bernanke said, referring to the FOMC’s outlook for “moderate” economic growth, further labor-market gains and inflation accelerating toward the Fed’s 2 percent goal.

If such gains are maintained, “we would continue to reduce the pace of purchases in measured steps through the first half of next year, ending purchases around mid-year,” he said.

An inverse bond ETF, which gains in value as treasuries fall, will remain an outstanding place to put your money in the years to come.

For the more adventurous, staying long the dollar against currencies like sterling and yen will pay handsomely if you have the stomach for it...the volume on the Fed's "electronic" printing press is apparently about to slowly be turned down.

[nysprod]

In further good news, you can also expect the greenback to strengthen against Thai baht...

Meanwhile: In the first quarter of this year, hourly wages fell by the greatest amount in history. (Dropped 3.8%, the biggest drop since the Bureau of Labor Statistics started tracking it in 1947.)

As we know, the economy is not good for everyone...still, there are mote wealthy now than at any time in history. If a girl is B+ and above, the hourly worker is not her target audience...then again, the average salary of a sanitation worker in nyc is just over $100,000.

Today was an interesting day for Fed watchers, as out-going Fed Chairman Bernanke somewhat surprised markets by declining at this time to "taper" the Fed's $45B/month treasury purchases, as many had expected.

This will have the effect of putting a temporary kibosh on our so-far very successful investment in the inverse bond ETF, which means you can expect to see treasuries prices rise (and yields fall) over the next 3-4 months...actually, a move in the 10yr down to around 2.2%-2.4% in that time period would certainly not be out of the question.

For you working girls, I cannot stress how good business will be for you IF your target client has anything to do with finance, stocks, etc. and in this corner of the world, that means downtown Manhattan and Stamford Ct. NYC is also becoming quite the tech start-up mecca, with tons of venture capital flowing in.

But rest easy, cowgirls, oil will do very well also so Dallas and Houston should continue to be hotspots, despite those areas having the highest per-capita population of TS providers in the country.

British babes, head to The City.

Word to the wise...stop blowing your cash on getting high/out-of-work hottie bf's, and invest in yourself...get the best make-up, haircuts and clothes that you can. Smart business people know their best investments are the ones they make in themselves.

I first posted this back in June, saying that escorts should be raising their rates because the economy is good, and today's article in The New York Times (http://www.nytimes.com/2014/02/03/business/the-middle-class-is-steadily-eroding-just-ask-the-business-world.html?hp) is confirmation and a perfect illustration of what is happening.

Put it this way...since as the article states large corporations (with their armies of Ivy-educated analysts and marketers) are more and more positioning their products for a higher-end market, shouldn't you be doing the same?

Of course you should because as the article illustrates, the top 20% of earners are now accounting for 61% of the spending and of this, 38% of spending is done by people in the top 5%!

Definitely...those who position themselves correctly will score, and score big.

In the eleven months since I first posted this, time has proven me to be correct.

Mia Isabella comes to NYC pretty frequently and asks for $1000/hr, but she gets many thousands more for all day adventures...the last time she was here you couldn't even get to see her, so booked up was she.

Venus Lux, on the other hand, is still asking for a relatively paltry $300/hr, which sadly means she is failing to maximize her earning potential...my suggestion would be to book minimum 2 hour sessions for $3000.

[Prospero]

New York talk...

So your theory is that Mia comes to NYC, places an ad on Eros, then claims she can't see you because she's too busy is some sort of joke?

I think Venus Lux has a "VIP" rate that is $500-600. Im not sure what you get for the "regular" rate but I would expect to be disappointed if I only paid for that.

Either way, these middle class rates are exactly what an A list girl needs to stay away from...the middle class is utterly squeezed, the disposable income isn't there...an A list girl has to aim for where the money is by positioning herself as an exclusive, luxury item.

Pfffft. Your data point is literally one person? Anyone who takes your advice on finances would have to be truly crazy.

[nysprod]

Since I started this thread almost 2 years ago the economy has continued to improve dramatically, which means that A list girls can continue to raise their rates.

Now, how exactly does a girl become A list and command those high rates? It's really not all that difficult when a hot girl is in the right location so let's look at two examples, one right and one wrong:

Aubrey Kate ($800 and up, right) and Sienna Grace ($100-$200, wrong).

First, too avoid confusion, let me just say that I have nothing against Sienna...in fact, I believe she could definitely command the high rates that Aubrey does, but the problem is that her business model is wrong.

The difference is that Aubrey has done lots and lots of porn while Sienna has not. Put simply, porn is the promotional vehicle which drives business to the escort side...and the more freely available it is, the better.

It just doesn't make sense (in terms of escort rates) to kind of dip your toe in it occasionally because once you do some, it's gonna be out there forever...a girl has to make a decision; either go into it in a big way, or stay out of it all together.

Excellent points.

January marked 59 months of continuous private sector job growth in the U.S., the longest sustained period of job growth in U.S. history. And after being flat for over a decade, U.S. wages increased 2.2% over January 2014. And the CPI actually declined in December and January, due mostly to falling gas prices.

So more people working, making more money, and spending less of it on consumer goods means more disposable income for recreation. Service providers of all kinds should be raising their rates.

Those are very good points...we should note however that the Fed looks at core CPI (that excludes the volatile food and fuel prices), which is still well below the 2% it desires.

I just read an interesting article on interest rates in Europe...because of the very slow economy, rates have gone negative. Banks are actually paying some people to take loans while they're charging to make deposits!

Why? Because of deflation. Normally prices are rising, so when you borrow money you're paying it back in the future with currency that in real (inflation adjusted) terms is worth less. A lender will charge interest on the loan to account for that, along with making some profit. And when you deposit (aka lend the bank) money and earn interest you're essentially doing the same to them, since they are paying you back with currency that is worth less in real terms when you withdraw.

But when prices are going down, borrowers are paying back the loan with currency that's worth more, which is why a bank would pay them to do so. Same idea (in reverse) when you deposit...the bank is paying you with currency that's worth more when you withdraw.
