^^^ It's reassuring to see that the earlier comments about charter boat owners ... as opposed to the 'mere millionaire' guys who actually book boat charters ... wasn't too far off the mark !!! Obviously, you're either seeking a floating 'sugar daddy' arrangement ... where your 'sugar baby' may be a de-facto captive on your yacht for days or weeks at a time, or you're seeking a genuine exclusive personal relationship with an adventurous girl ... where she would 'automatically' want to remain on board with you. Arguably, both are beyond the 'scope' of Stripperweb.
Yes. Exactly. I wanted to test the public opinion and it was generally favorable.
Just the wholely owned boat, all by itself, puts me in the mere millionaire category, and yes, i will go out to seek a real relationship in this spirit.
Agreed, both are well beyond the scope of stripperweb. Just wanted to say thank you for the input.

^^^ actually, these days, the gold-diggers' 'mere millionaire' term refers to $1 million of annual income ... not $1 million in net worth ( which even I would also qualify for ! ). The 'mere millionaires' earn enough to afford to 'drop' five figures on frivolous things without even thinking about it, but unlike the 'uber-rich' are still sufficiently connected to the real world to act like and respect 'normal' people !!! In contrast, the 'uber-rich' seem to live in their own 'superior' world, look down on everyone and everything that isn't a part of that world, but ( ironically ) are actually more guarded about their frivolous spending.
Good luck with your future 'adventures'.

I loved dancing and milking the cash cow and was going to keep doing it until I finished school, but being assaulted put a tidy end to that. (That reminds me, gotta change my description to EX-dancer. Fuckin NYC.)
I will probably live outside many of society's rules still, but I don't think living that way is badass. I think it's sane. Society is always coming up with new ways to restrict freedom and celebrate assholes, it's gross and sooo misguided I really don't want to be part of it. Why the fuck are gay people not allowed to get married? Why is pot illegal? Why do people think success is just infinitely climbing some imaginary ladder of power and money while being a stay at home parent or choosing a low-wage job that you love means there's something pathetic about you? Why are sex workers looked down on, yet purchasing their time is the most baller thing ever? Ugh, too many screwed up things to list. Fuck the system, stick it to the man, etc. Lol.
I can't wait to move to the country with my boyfriend- only three and a half more years. :P I'm going to be a nurse. Life is hard right now especially because I'm totally broke ($200 to my name...) but it's going to get better once I find a job and things move forward with school. Then when I can leave NYC, things are going to be way better. Then I will get married, pop out some kids, have a comfortable medium salary for myself, get some chickens for my home in the countryside. It'll be good. Pretty tame post-stripping goals, but that's what I always daydream about!

^^^ lovin your determination Starlily !!!
I also hear you about NYC limiting the ability to 'get ahead'. I lived in Manhattan for a couple of years myself soon after I first started dancing. The club income potential was great, but ... the costs of living ( especially, rent - utilities - groceries ) were bad, the taxes were worse, and the temptation to spend money on 'unnecessary' things was terrible !!! As a result, even though I was bringing in a lot of gross earnings, I really wasn't able to generate enough after-tax savings to make much 'headway' towards building my retirement nest egg.
I sat down one day and crunched the numbers. Between the low rate of actual after-tax savings rate I was able to maintain, and the 'time value of money' thing beginning to slip away, something needed to change. A move across the river to north Jersey ... where taxes were lower, where costs of living were FAR lower ( by comparison ), and where there was far less temptation to spend money unnecessarily ... put my financial 'progress' toward building my retirement nest egg on a far better trajectory !!!
