The Sugar Baby Pro

Finally. After so much talk about every kind of prostitute imaginable, it is time to profile the one who started it all – the sugar baby.

Sugar babies are typically good-looking and much younger than other pros. They are usually in their early to late twenties, and many of them are college students who were forced to turn to escorting as a result of financial pressures. In fact, according to Seeking Arrangement, a self-described “elite sugar daddy dating site for those seeking mutually beneficial relationships and mutually beneficial arrangements,” 44 percent of their over 2 million members are college students, and from the period of December 2011 to December 2012, college student membership increased by an astounding 58 percent.

Many college students become sugar babies in order to afford their college tuition and the additional fees associated with higher education, including room and board, meal plans, and textbooks. Additionally, they use the money they make from selling their bodies to prevent themselves from accumulating debt. This is because despite the steady rise in college tuition fees, the economy continues to be at a standstill, and the amount of potential employment opportunities does not appear to be improving any time soon. Considering that college students are already burdened with a full-time school schedule, and their young age and lack of experience make it difficult for them to get flexible, high-paying jobs, it is no wonder that they increasingly turn to extreme measures such as prostitution to pay the bills. In essence, sugar babies get to enjoy all the same perks as the top CEOs of the nation: they get to be their own boss, make their own hours, and boast a ridiculous hourly rate, all without having to do any real, laborious work.

However, some sugar babies are in it not so that they can pay their way through college, but rather so that they can have access to the kind of lifestyle the rest of us can only dream of. They sell their bodies for Louboutin shoes, Gucci sunglasses, Herve Leger dresses, Louis Vuitton purses, and countless other designer items. They trade sex for week-long vacations in exotic locales, pricey condos in the city, and expensive luxury cars that they would otherwise never be able to afford. 

Becoming a sugar baby might sound like a great idea after reading everything I have previously posted. Indeed, they make as much money with one encounter as most people make in a couple of weeks, and they get to live the kind of luxurious lifestyle that most people work decades to accomplish. They don't have to pay taxes to Uncle Sam and can keep 100% of their profits since they do not need a pimp or a brothel to help them find clients. Best of all, sugar babies no longer have to walk the streets at late hours of the night just to attract new customers. With the advent of escort websites, it is now all too easy for people to make some quick cash, all while working from the comfort of their home. All one needs to do is join a sugar daddy website, post an attractive profile that will reel in potential johns, arrange a meeting, do whatever one needs to do for however many hours, and then get paid in cash. From that point on, one can spend their money however they choose to, and if they decide to completely blow their money, so be it, because whenever that money runs out, there will always be another sugar daddy out there who would be more than happy to spend his paycheck on a sexual arrangement.

However, being a sugar baby is not as great as it may seem. Don't believe me? In case you have been following closely along with this blog, have read about all of the perks of becoming a sugar baby, and are seriously considering joining a sugar daddy website yourself, I leave you with the following statement from a former sugar baby:

I stumbled upon Seeking Arrangement about 6 years ago, when I was 18 (yes, it’s been around that long). I was a freshman in college, which was attended by many people that came from money. Girls showed up to class with expensive Chanel bags, and seeing brand new Porsches parked outside school buildings was the norm. I come from a normal, working class background and was super jealous and wanted to be like them. Seeking Arrangement popped up as a banner ad, and I clicked out of curiosity. The first guy I met was a normal, lonely middle aged guy that worked for Fidelity. We hung out for about an hour, and I made $300. What a freakin’ score in my mind, and I became hooked on the fast, easy money. Over the course of the next 3 years, I was raking it in. I met two legit, wealthy guys that gave me a lot of money and helped finance trips, bags, clothes, and a luxury lifestyle. I also saw others on the side. I knew how to play these guys like a violin, knowing exactly what to say, and playing up the struggling college student card.

Some of the things I did made me want to puke, but I did it all with those designer sunglasses that I would purchase the next day in the forefront of my mind. When I sat down one day and estimated how much money I made, it came to about $300,000, enough to have bought a house at the age of 21. Instead, it all went towards Ed Hardy clothes, fake boobs, Fendi bags, and now broken sunglasses. I decided to attend law school after college, and had about $30,000 saved at the time. During that time I met an amazing guy whom I told about my past. He helped wean me off of the drug I was addicted to- Seeking Arrangement. Yes, it’s like a drug- getting that money and thinking about what you are going to buy with it is so intoxicating. You buy your shit the next day, feel crappy, but then start craving the easy high soon again later. It’s a vicious cycle. 

I’ve been “sober” for about 3 years now, and am about to graduate law school soon. While I do not regret what I did because it helped put me in a position to attend law school and taught me a lot about life, men, and myself, there are still deep emotional scars that will never heal. Being used solely for a man’s pleasure in exchange for some quick cash kills your soul. Maybe not right away, but years of accumulation causes you to crash after a while, as I did. Girls, there is NOTHING wrong with finding a guy with money that loves and respects you, but stay away from pay for play. Go to college and make a five year plan.
