I reckon they can if they have other options. I was once with a popular and long term regular of mine and she noticed I wasn’t quite right so she asked what was wrong so I said a bit of stress related to work. Her answer was, what are you stressed about? I have stress, I am getting old and have no other prospects. If they have other options I think they can adjust, if not I don’t think they will.
A lot of the girls have degrees in their own countries and or study here so they aren’t all stupid when you are on a student visa and no one will hire you because you can only work 20 hours and have limited English this is the only option I have lots of ML friends that come over to my house for parties so I hear a lot about their lives
A ex of mine who I found out was a WL only after we had ended (her ‘hotel’ work was not exactly as she described to me) hooked up with this guy straight after me who clearly knew she was a WL and almost 20 years on they are still married with 2 kids. Btw I am not stalking her or him, a mate contracts the odd job out to the guys company and they have the odd chat.
Could anyone change profession mid stream in life?
Have had a few friends of time who did the change due to mid life crisis. All successfully transitioned. At this mid life point, money isn't as huge of a priority, so they are happy to go back being a standard employee in a complete new industry doing something they like.Originally Posted by Shaft
Some people can, but they would have to be willing to take a pay cut, at least in the short term.
Normal is an illusion. What is normal for the spider is chaos for the fly. The regular punters merely flies trapped in a spider’s web. The spider feasting on and draining the fly in more ways than one.
Personally I know of 3 Chinese WL who got in, worked hard and got out with the money and assets they aimed for. All in less than 4 years and a now doing ok back at home. 2 married and 1 that plays for the other team and is in a relationship. Normal life. I don't think I am qualified to say what a normal life is but they are a long way down the road from were I was at 30. And yes, I have met the train wreck individual as well. Strength of character is probably the most important feature for a WL to survive the business. But that is also important for all of us to survive in whatever business we live in. 👍
Then there are the girls that go from worker to owner, running a shop or a private agency.
Actually quite a few of those.
Very true. I guess most people would think that "normal" means to save and avoid excess when you're young, with the ultimate goal of being "safe" in retirement, ie. When you're old.
Alas, there in lies the irony. All the expensive stuff that you can enjoy are best enjoyed when you're young! Travel the world? Wear fashionable clothing? Buy expensive handbags or accessories and pair them with your expensive clothing? You will not enjoy any of that even if you can afford it when you're old.
At the end of the day, you gotta think, what is life about? Is it the number of zeroes you have in your bank account when you're on your deathbed? Or how "safe" you are, that you've got a roof over your head and a few more "just in case"?
Or is it the experiences you've had in your lifetime?
Many here keep on going at the WLs who've spent every dime that they earnt when they were at their prime and "had nothing to show" for it. I just think that just because you can't see what they've gotten materially doesn't mean they got nothing. It's all in the experiences they had.
EDIT: And I'll add one more point. It's ironic that we of all people look down on WLs who've spent every dime on experiences. We're punters, the whole point of what we do is to spend lots of money for literally "nothing to show" for it.
You are right Riff. There are plenty out there that went from worker to owner.
Interesting thread.
I would say most can't or won't adjust to a life with a "normal" income.
A few years ago, I offered a regular ML to babysit my niece on her off day for 4 hours for $150. She said no because she wanted more. I said $37.50/hour is pretty good when babysitters normally get about $20-25/hour. She said she knew that but she still wanted more.
If a WL / ML doesn't go from worker to owner, then statistically I think it'd be hard to go back to doing normal jobs. Mainly because normal jobs don't pay the rates they're used to. Even harder if they're accustomed to a certain lifestyle.
When you can earn enough money here to pay off multiple houses in the home country, the time spent is still life changing even if you don't have new luxury things. You still have all that's accumulated.
Think about it if in a couple of years you could not pay rent or mortgage again, will your life every go back to how it was?
Same could be said of punters.
How many blokes do you think could leave punting and adjust to a 'normal' sex life with their current partner especially after having pounded an assortment of 24 year olds in every position, and enjoying a lifestyle of getting their dicks sucked and their ass and balls licked?
Perhaps the question should also read - can a punter ever adjust to a normal (vanilla) sex life?
That's a different question.
No way. I cant even look at a woman over 30 years old anymore. Let alone imagine having sex with a woman over 30.
As Chris Rock once said, "men cannot go backwards sexually". "Once we get the type of sex we want, thats how the f*ck we roll" for the rest of our lives.
Nah, yuck bro. Im a young guy so maybe its why a old Chinese mum doesnt appeal to me. Maybe when I'm older. I only do the Young Chicks at Ginza/no5/42/Kyoto/Sakura
You're quoting Chris rock like he knows wtf he is doing lol. He is destined to get bitch slapped his whole life bro. Kid is a simp
Depends on the demographic. Those working to support family back home (kids, parents, siblings)... I've known a number who've gone back to a normal life, though at least one didn't.
