WTI vs Provider Prices

Crude oil prices affect Houston more than anything.
The plumetting prices are of great concern locally.
I'm sure the ladies will index their rates accordingly.

The modtards need to merge this thread with the other worthless price threads.

Hookernomics megathread? I like it

I'm all for accepting your gas savings as an added tip

There's only one YM...so the law of supply and demand supports my current rates just fine

Some people will seek any reason to find a bargain. Clipping coupons, garage sales & thrift shops, unfortunately I'm sure I've never heard of hooker coupons. This hobby lives outside the norm of regular economics. Surely the OP was only trying to make a joke, maybe hoping to find a 'harlot with a heart' to offer him a discount. IJS.

How about Groupon coupons.

If anything it will up demand. Every $ not put in a gas tank is up for grabs. Some will spend it at Walmart. Some will get a blow job.

....some will want a blowjob at WalMart.

I'm not sure what crude oil prices have to do with what an escort charges for her services.
Oh wait, is he making a joke?

Not a bargain hunter, believe me.
Hoping to poke a little fun at a serious situation and hope it's temporary and settles in the $75-$80 range so the oil companies can remain viable while gasoline is more affordable.

If anyone was here for in the early 80's when boom went to bust, you will remember how downtown office space went vacant and how many people walked away from homes with mortgages (interest rates in the teens).

Disposable income or any income evaporated.
Lots of nice providers moved on to greener pastures.

There you go!

An occasional special is fine, but established ladies who drop their prices to reflect a temporary factor in a continually cyclic economy are just devaluing themselves. Gentleman are also paying for reliability, safety, a decent incall, a history of good service, a particular talent, a body type, a personality, etc., etc. Some things shouldn't be negotiated if you want them to be kept at a stellar level.

Which reminds me again that I ought to raise my rates, as they certainly have not kept up with inflationary expenses. Don't think there are many reputable redheaded Irish Amazons with draconian-decorated lairs of lechery offering the full buffet, Fantasy Field Trips, Chick & a Flick dates, and other inventive packages out there. Heck, just the cost of booze for my bar has skyrocketed, not to mention lube, lingerie, linens, condoms, costumes, toys, batteries, chocolate syrup, and whipped cream. At least you guys are bringing your own nuts.

In the refining business till I retired ... most important price measure to refiners:

Crack spreads!

I don't know why I wrote this ... the thread made me think it, then I chuckled and recalled the great, smartass ladies that I've met (that's a compliment) and thought I'd share.

Surely we can apply "crack spreads" to the hobby?

Crack Spread is the cost of feedstock vs the price of refined product.
In the hooker world, no definition required.
