This hobby is just liking going to Vegas and playing Blackjack. The experiences you get from playing a $2.00 table downtown vs Cesar’s or the Venetian are vastly different. As are those at the $25.00 table, or $100.00 table or in the VIP Room. You get the experience you pay for, at the tables and in the hobby.

The hobby is a luxury no matter what you pay, therefore, the experience you receive should also be a luxury. Now what I do agree with you on is, since history indicates that even though you pay for the same experience, the encounters are YMMV, depending upon the mood or whatever else factor of the provider, so you are right, the hobby is a gamble, but it should not be. YMMV experiences are what you would normally get in the real world due to the fact that you are not paying cash upfront nor are the ladies advertising services they are rendering for that cash.
Just think if you pulled the same crap the providers pulled whenever it came time to pay saying that the ATM was YMMV and shorted her $100 on her donation. Do you think that you would have any providers stand up for you like guys stand up for providers who give crappy service?
