"cost of goods" for the female=$0
[QUOTE=HappyHunter44;4516296]We are actually describing two different things. You are talking negotiations; I am talking the actual economics of the trade, not the essence of a negotiation.
Let's say I have $ and you have a shirt. If I offer you the $ for your shirt and you agree to give me the shirt in exchange for my $, then 1) yes, we had a successful negotiation, but the economic conditions to each of us are not equal. 2) By definition, I must value the shirt more than the $ I had, thus I parted with the $ for the shirt and 3) you parted with the shirt in exchange for the $ because you valued the $ more than the shirt.
Economically, each party sees himself coming out ahead of the position he was in prior to the trade. Therefore, for the trade to take place, each party must view the exchange as an economic gain. For each party to realize a gain, the exchanged items must be economically valued differently, i.e. , have unequal value to each party.[/QUOTE]Sorry for the lurker unsolicited comment; females all know that they are making out on any transaction to sell pussy to a man; they know they were born with their pussy and the man had to go out and either earn, steal, or inherit that money he pays her for the temporary use of her pussy.
Girls may be self deluded enough to believe that their time is valuable; not really since I have very rarely met any female who had useful information to depart to me so her company was a frivolity to me and usually led to sexual relations or was over soon.
I have often said to many broke females who complained to me about their plight "You're sitting on your ATM card; if you use it, you will have plenty of money. You're just unwilling to take it out. ".
A few hot girls I know have mocked their female friends who fuck for nothing or for free; deep down they think like prostitutes who think a guy must pay up of jerk off.
True sugar daddies are rare and old
[QUOTE=ChrisCarr;4517410]Most girls believe that most guys on SA are lying about their income and marital status. I've seen the categories as sugar, splenda, and salt. I'd argue the lot of us are splenda when viewed thru the typical Pretty Woman lens, and lots of girls learn this when their initial 1 k ppm ask is countered with 150. This forum is proof 🤔.
If you accept the above, then what is the image and perception we want to portray?[/QUOTE]Lurker comment herewith; I knew a girl in S. Florida who used SA website to find eligible men for a relationship; she also used it for locating simps willing to buy her dinner.
She had a female friend who found a mega rich sugar daddy who paid her apartment rent and gave her a big allowance; this guy is like Bigfoot or a unicorn, they aren't so common.
A guy who has a lot of dough who is under 70 doesn't have to spend too much to find female company; he's not seen as a Quasimodo quite by the girls.
I have some dough but I'm not willing to spend more than what a top playboy model female in a foreign country charges for service.
Discussing this with my S. Florida "baby" whom I met offline from her coworker; how many hot females are out there who have a pussy; how many successful guys who aren't total warthogs or geezer dinosaurs are out there?
I would say that there are actually more broke desperate females; I also once told her that "at night all cats are black" and "from behind females are remarkably similar"=a substitute female is always out there.
She came to respect my frugality and no nonsense treatment; I said to her when she couldn't pay some bill or wanted her nails done and etc. "No pussy, no money. Come up and see me and you will have your money. ".
