I was kinda expecting "elite" to be more than $300 an hour of $1,200 a night.

I read 500$ an hour with plans on doubling that and a business plan which looks viable.

Why does the "elite" link go to Twitter?

I used t be night editor of the Daily Pennsylvanian in the 70s. did a little reporting as well.

As a TG person I am uncomfortable with idolizing those who are TG and in the sex trade. Maybe I'm just too old school (entirely possible) but my reaction to the article was "she can do a lot better with a degree from Wharton"

I'm not sure why this is a post.

I'm glad that she is finding hey own way out of poverty, and that she is moving away from sex work.
It is lovely that sher s intense and educated and wants to be an advocate.

She is 19 and finding her way in life, but other than that there is little to say.
