What does $5,500 an hour get you?


So word on the street is that Elliott Sptizer likes whores. And from what I see, he likes pretty whores. What's wrong with that? I say nothing, in and of itself. "Whores need love too," is what my grandma always told me.

I guess my problem with Elliott's interest is not so much that he pays for sex (which is a bit hypocritical for a man that prosecuted prostitutes -- say that, let alone type that 10 times), but rather that he pays so much money for sex. There are plenty of very attractive whores out there willing to allow you to do just about anything to them for far less money. And that's where my concerns lie. What exactly does he want to do to these women that costs $5,500 an hour?

A good hooker can be had for $400 or $500. Anybody knows that. Hell, if you have taken one high school class in consumer economics, you know you can get laid for far less than that. Just ask Tim Mash. Now, as any economist will tell you, if demand stays steady, and supply decreases (let's say that the sex act is so lewd that those willing to supply said act are no longer willing to do so), the price should go up. Go 10x up? I think not. Using Tim Mash's consumer economics class information will show you that even if you request a double jointed, Portuguese gymnast/midget for a Louisville Plugger, you shouldn't be paying $5,500 an hour.

Here's what I need to know in order to form an educated opinion. What exactly is the act that was requested? Was it worth it? Where can I experience this for myself?

Update: Fark submitters have posted that he our friend was into things so gross I can't even type them here and refuse to link to. that's right, more disgusting than a Louisville Plugger.

This is the similar logic I have used to oppose trips to strip clubs or Hooters. The beer is waaaay overpriced.

I can't remember Tim Mash telling anyone that going to a strip club is sssstupid. Tim would remind smart class members to make the dancer work for her tip and that one should always present the dollar bill by smoothing it over their forehead.
