Okay... I'll take you way back, way down in the alley. My first session(s) were $35 for 45 minutes when I was a 21 yr. old college kid with no money. Assume for a second that if was $45 per hour with inflation that would be $246 an hour in 2021 dollars, according to a search I just did. I had very few sessions in 1974, but my sessions were a tremendous bargain since they were with the legendary Belle de Jour and she used me once back then to train a Mistress (just paid Belle the $35... for her and stayed an hour mostly with her) and then used once as a "house slave" at her apartment.

As someone once wrote on a site about being dominated or wrestling female bodybuilders, the same is true in this case, "It is an expensive hobby."
