But probably, the key reconciliation they need to make in order to walk away, is accepting the big money days on their back are over.

Can be done and I know of one high end WL who is now leading a "normal" life.

Also, I think I mentioned way back in this thread a WL I met in 2019 ~ great punt, saw her a few times and on the last visit she announced she was finishing in 2 weeks time : as she put it she had saved enough for a certain apartment in Sydney and she was gone..
Yeah its a tricky situation for the girls. We all have motives in life and I'm sure they all have reasons for doing it.

I also think about punters and if we can ever adjust to normal life. Reality is, my life is not the same as it was pre punting. Hard to explain but life is just different. Meeting girls, dating girls, arguments, all that stuff with WL's.

How can we ever forget being a punter ? Just like the old saying for smokers. Once a smoker, always a smoker. Once a punter, always a punter. No regrets ever starting but sometimes I think it would have been better that I didn't start punting. I suppose everything happens for a reason.
