Hello, hello, hello!
Thank you for tuning in today to Escort Confessions.
I am your host Alexa Max and today we're going to talk about why sex workers charge what
they charge and the costs of being a sex worker.
Let's start with some statistics, shall we?
So the average price in the United States for escorts is $500.
So there's sex workers that charge, I would say, $200 and then it goes as high up as $1800.
That is the most expensive one I personally saw.
So there is that, especially if you're a porn star, you would charge $1000 and more per
hour.
In other countries it's actually $300 an hour, so it all varies.
Now here's the fun part.
So I did some research, I did some, you know, logic, I did some personal experience stuff
so basically here are the costs of being a sex worker.
First things first, you gotta pay your rent.
Rent right now, oh my god guys, the market is booming, it's growing and the prices are
going up.
So the average price for rent, if you are a provider who's doing in-calls at her or
his place, it's $1500 and more.
Utilities $50, internet for, you know, OnlyFans, ads, emails and whatnot is $50.
Cell phone, same shit, $50 because people text me every day and I'm so thankful I have unlimited
plan.
Laptop $1000, if it's a Mac I am pretty sure you guys can find a used one.
Will it work as well?
Probably not.
Camera for filming content.
So my first camera cost me about, I would say $300 and I just bought a 4K camera for
$600 and it does wonders.
My content looks so much better and obviously I charge a little bit more than I used to.
Right, memory cards are $20 and more, depends on the brand.
Next one, hotel, which is for touring and in-calls if you're not comfortable, well,
if a provider is basically not comfortable for doing in-calls at her own place.
Hotels can be from $100 to $3000 to, oh gosh, it all depends where you go.
Clothes because women and men need clothes.
They run from $20 and more.
Sex stores.
Sex stores are pretty freaking expensive, I can tell you that.
They run from $40 and more.
Condoms and lube.
Condoms are expensive, they will get more expensive and right now it's about, average
price is like $10 for condoms.
Lube is pretty much the same.
Car to get from point A to point B. I bought my car for $3500 and it was used condition.
I probably put in way more money than I should have into it.
So then after my first year of being a sex worker, yay, I bought a new car.
New, new.
So for $30,000, yeah, so that took a big chunk out of my bank account, but that car, guys
harmed us.
They get you from point A to point B effortlessly.
Depending where you are, right now I'm in Georgia, the guess is $3.19.
So there's that.
Car insurance, $150.
Health insurance, $60 because hello sex workers, like the government doesn't really help us.
We have to pay out of our own pockets, unfortunately.
Dental would be $100 with insurance.
Up hair and nails, $20 and more.
I have no, I do know some providers who buy hair extensions and who get hair extensions.
I don't get it because I'm just growing my hair out.
I like the length it is.
If I need to get a different hair, I just get a cheap wig off Amazon.
So you know, for variety, some guys are into brunette, some guys are into blonde, so there's
that.
Lingerie.
I would say the cheapest lingerie I found was on Shine.
I never got any complaints.
And the most expensive lingerie I saw was like $200 a set.
And that's like brand lingerie.
Honestly, you guys don't give a fuck about that, but if Cole can afford it, sure, good
for her.
Ads, because we do need to put ourselves out there.
Ads run from $30 and more.
Photoshoots.
Oh, that's a big one because we do need good photos and we do need a variety of photos.
Photoshoots can vary from $150 to $1000.
Birth pills, birth control, Plan B, all of them.
Shenanigans.
It goes from $40 and more.
So yeah, this is pretty much it.
And the grand total that I calculated for myself, and again, disclaimer, this is based
on my own experience, and the total comes to, can we hear a drum roll?
$8740 to get started as an escort.
Oh my freaking God.
And yeah, I was not expecting such high price.
Yeah, so there you have it.
You know, and again, this is average price to get started as a sex worker, but my point
is all of my things get paid off.
I do charge $400 an hour in Savannah, Georgia.
And for touring, I charge $500.
And usually, usually for touring, everything pays off in one or two visits.
I always get something, something extra, whether on previous tour or the next tour.
Yeah.
So if you guys are saying that we charge too much, that's on you.
And yeah, if you've been listening to this episode, thank you so much for listening.
Thank you so much for tuning in.
And I will talk to you next time.
