Just waiting for Centaur to weigh in.

As for her clients, it takes all kinds. She catered to a very specific demographic more prevalent in Manhattan than anywhere else in the US. Wall Street bankers tend to be very self-absorbed by virtue of selection bias (it takes a single-minded drive to make it on Wall Street) and are happy to accept the fantasy that they maybe think is easier to swallow from an "exotic" (read: more enigmatic and less familiar body language) immigrant. It's interesting that she wonders if the working girls catering to other demographics are stupid. Of course if you're paying the cost of living to reside in Manhattan, you better be doing something you can't do with less overhead elsewhere, and Wall Street bankers are certainly on that list.
I agree with Toyz that she comes off as cold and calculating, in it exclusively for the money. Personally she wouldn't interest me even if I was inclined to see HDHs, but there's obviously a market for her services and more power to her for successfully exploiting it and her clients for getting what they want. A healthy market pairs compatible buyers and sellers. I disagree with Toyz that she seems jaded, just very practical. No southern comfort, but there isn't a lot of that north of the Carolinas in my experience.
She was a very intelligent girl, but since there was such a language barrier with most she wasn't well received here.
