The hobby is cyclical, and always has been
[QUOTE=Cincy2015;5817449]Well I guess this is it. The hobby is now dead. Not a single provider in the area worth the donation at this point. Just saw the local agency atf rates jumped up. The provider quality isn't on par with the inflation. Better off trying to wine and dine an attractive girl rather than spend even more on worn out addicts. Thanks to all who provided information and guidance but the time has come where I'm retiring from this hobby. So long. Stay safe.[/QUOTE]I started hobbying in the late 1990's, and I've seen many ups and downs. It was awful in the early 2000's, in the sense that you got very little for your money. (Kind of like now!) There were very plain girls charging $400. (And that was in 2003 dollars, guys.).
Then between 2008 and 2017, things were very good. It was during this period that the sugar bowl arose, too. But I also had some great times with girls from Fantasys and Discreet Desires. I used EE some, too.
Right now, the whole economy is very strange. And the hobby is strange, too.
Things will swing back around again, if history is any guide.
That said, now would not be a bad time to take a hiatus, if you're so inclined. Also, it might cause some of those girls demanding $400 to $600 to lower their prices again. (Emailing ladies and complaining does no good. The only thing that lowers prices is either a.) an increase in supply, or b.) a reduction in demand.).
