Just google "The Ex-Banker on Cocaine Binges & £600k Bonuses | Informer". It should be the first YouTube link with a dude wearing a mask. I'm certain these guys would have hooked up with a tonne of WL's.

Yep, knew a guy socially a bit, he was open about his use of hookers and estimated his annual spend at between $80 - $120k (USD)

Will give it a watch. It’s a bit of a stereotype though both here and in NY. Generally a lot of down to earth and competitive people who just like winning and want to make money.

It has not translated into a change in my habits, and in fact punting has reduced meaningfully over the years and now it is a treat every 2 months or so.

To each their own

I think 2025 might be similar or perhaps even smaller… I enjoy it much more these days than when I was visiting most in 2013 on my lowest base salary out of uni…

Hey brother Bull,


Very impressive going up the corporate ladder, I will be retiring soon in the next few years and I'm on less than half of your base and I think I have been working very hard all my life............lol

It's quite amazing how salary have grown and skyrocketed among the younger professionals especially in the fields of IT, Engineering and Finances.

Good on you guys and happy punting.

Cheers

Wwwewwwwwwwww2www

Ended the year off with slightly north of 100k. At 10k so far this year.

Wwwwwwwww22edeeewwww

About $5-6 k although since prices are much higher it might be higher.

I have 2 SB. But they are funnily enough cheaper than working girls. Il do long bookings every no and then. And then try privates or different brothels , just whatever really . I took my SB to a brothel once. 😂

That was March. I ended up on about 7.7k for the year which is only about 150 per week approx on average. I was having more civvie sex 2nd Half of 2024 so it petered off a bit and have started off in that vein so far.

As this thread keeps rolling, the answers will be as to the date of each reply made.

Will you keep going at this rate going forward into the remainder of 2024?

Finally got around to totalling punts AND accommodation when doing outcalls ... $96,324.00 on WLs and MLs and around $23K ... from partially completed spreadsheet I started
For this year $6295.00 for WLs and MLs and about $1800.00 ... life is good !

A bit over $6.2K for me...Hmmm....

A motza in 2024.

So in 2025 I’ve started putting a broom through everything and everyone on a whim.

Now this year I’m getting my 90 min weekly massages for $130 plus a generous extra for the extras. A different methodology for the start of year. Thai MLs of course and very cute too, size 6 and early twenty’s. It’s becoming an institution, the girls have come to expect it and book me in same time same day every week. Soon I’ll hit up Ginza just to check out the talent and I’ll be interested to see if any WL there can outfuck me, most probably not but surely there must be a contender. Suggestions?

I have been into a bit of the yolo feeling over the past year or 2, but my spend rate in 2024 ($14k) may stabilize as a long time regular is maybe pulling stumps mid year...

Thank you sir - might sound crazy, but you have paved the way for people like me. Have a lot to thank you for.

The numbers in this thread are quite sobering. I hope everyone is doing well and enjoying things within their means. That being said, I find it’s critical to keep things under control and not spiral.

Hopefully it is sustainable and a happy medium for most. I have found pulling back I have enjoyed my punts far more than a decade ago. Something to look forward to… a new shop… a return visit. You want those butterflies if there is a way to still get them

Anyway… this is what RNT is about!

Doing rough numbers in my head, around $20k for me in 2024

Off to a pretty good start this year in Melbourne - just one YTD. Though have a trip to Sydney coming up where I often like to splurge for the nostalgia factor.

I would like to be in a position where my annual profits from sportsbetting basically funds my punting… combining two hobbies. Be being disciplined via matched betting / abusing the bookmakers’ promotions you can make a consistent and pretty risk free profit
