Each of these men would never hand out $2k or more to a sugarbabe if they knew there are other girls that would accept less. They certainly "can afford" but they never "spend". As for the lesser wealthy, those usually called HNWIs (High Net Worth Individuals), with say $20m to $100m in net worth, they hardly have cash lying around to spend on girls just to get laid. Their net worth is usually tied up in investments and family trusts.
The only ones that I can imagine blowing cash around the joint might be men with cash businesses and d--g dealers, etc. Maybe some Asian gamblers (I've met a handful) who carry big amounts of cash.
Speaking of d--g dealers and certain groups of bikies, one of their problems is storing cash because cash becomes bulky and heavy. There used to be a certain group in South-West Sydney which offered to exchange anyone's $100 banknotes for $110 or even more in smaller denominated banknotes. How do I know this? Because one of those guys was the "boss" of the group that provided "security" for a long strip of shops in Burwood.... and he volunteered that currency exchange when I was having a coffee there long ago. By "security", I mean the group that tells store owners they must pay for protection in order to prevent their stores from getting smashed up or burnt down.
Back to seeking dot com, the good news is there are still many Sydney based SBs who are happily accepting the 500 to 600 range. Good news for us blokes.
