As someone who’s dabbled in all prices I agree heavily. However there are great experiences of pros not ridden by drugs sub $300 (Shy and Sophia Belle come to mind).
Also it becomes a frequency of addiction at some point even if your getting enough NP4P in civilian life, sometimes the thrill of this world starts itching and you need the fix. In my personal experience if at my extreme, monger 3-4 times a week the best deals in SW or cheap car date ads become the most suitable option without going nuts on the weekly expense. I have found that often more than not a 40-60 car date is better than a 120-160 room date with a girl that is pretty much a SW quality decaying in a motel.
I’ve tried my best in recent years to keep intel in the various strolls on the island and where the best street talent is often developing a friendly relationship with the girls - it goes along way in the long run. A lot of my experience was heightened in studying Genius stories, rules and way of maneuvering when he was in the SW world.
This winter I know I’m already going into a new phase of mongering. While I’ve had a few AMP experiences it has never been a go to habit. After studying the Flushing thread I think I’m confident enough to have fun and dive in.
@mugi brings up a great point of a term I believe is called ‘Sexual Transmutation’ where karmically you take on the energy of the person you have intercourse in the spiritual order of the universe. This is something that has struck me even in my person life. With the Pros I see I prefer a BBJ for this reason as it’s less of a intimate experience with the girl. Often more than not I have 2 beers in or smoked a little herb if FS is the outcome.
