Does Canada's economic forecast have you reconsidering your pooning?

Uh, "inflation" IS the central factor.
There are FAR more people presently, uh, stretched while trying to make ends meet than there were five years ago.
When you stretch a much larger segment of the society all around, there will be a parallel increase in people doing what they have to do in order to pay their inflated expenses.
As only expenses, and not hours in the day are increasing, the most enterprising persons in need will be looking for side gigs where they can earn a lot of money for very little invested time.
It is simple math.
I think it could be oil and gas revenues kicking up a notch. Instead of lowering taxes perhaps taxes could be more progressive?
Its been 2 months since the last post in here, and I see the economy only getting worse, not better.
I don't poon much in the region I live, because the choices are mostly poor or nonexistent.
I truly believe that traveling ladies would do better coming up here, than going to an already flooded market like Vancouver, Victoria, Calgary, Winnipeg, etc but they don't for some reason.
I mostly binge poon, while on trips, even if the trip is only to Vancouver, but I much prefer further away, even Arizona last month was amazing.
But compared to Mexico, Russia etc it still wasn't as good as they are.
I'm not willing to pay for the super expensive ladies, I see no advantage to dropping $500-1000/hour, when $300/hour ladies have been good to me.
The rich people don't care, why would they, if you have $500,000,000 or $5,000,000,000 its irrelevant to you what things cost, but for most people cost do matter. I see people being more selective even in the grocery store, and food is a necessity.
I've got a personal trainer I see some to help me get back in shape after an almost fatal head on car crash, she was telling me that she had to cut her rates recently, not raise them, to keep from losing too many clients, and she shovels driveways on the side, as well as now works a day per week at Canadian tire.
A friend who has a full time job already at shoppers drug mart, has taken a 2nd part time job at A&W to help make ends meet.
This past Friday I was at the Honda dealer, and they said the shop has slowed down significantly, because people just cannot afford to bring their vehicles in.
So yes I would think a luxury item like pooning will slow down, and some men will also have to find cheaper alternatives than the ladies who they used to see. A week ago I was in Vancouver, and it didn't seem to have its normal hustle and bustle, restaurants not as crowded come dinner time, hotels not as full, and a nurse at the hospital said to me in a conversation that she was struggling financially, and an RN makes more than the average person does.
I'm mostly retired now, sold my businesses, and am looking at a new business venture with a few others, but we are all current or former business owners, and are approaching it cautiously.
Occasionally I still work on cars, quads, boats, or even a farm tractor for people I like, and have been good customers to me over the years. But that said, I don't do it full time, or in a commercial shop in town anymore, just infrequently in my garage at home. I should up my hourly rate to spin wrenches, but haven't, and still charge what I did 5 years ago.
Some people are even on a payment plan with me to pay their bill off, because they couldn't afford to hand me the money in a lump sum, but needed their vehicle fixed. Tomorrow a girl is supposed to come by and give me another $300 towards her car repair that I did in September 2022. Times are tough for many, and I see it long term affecting SPs to. Some may have to drop their rates to keep enough clients to stay liquid, or figure out how to cut expenses, stop doing frivolous things, or maybe start cutting lawns on the side for $20/hour.
The guys who have extreme wealth will not care as I already mentioned, but the average joe sure does.
I'm blessed to have enough money to not need to bargain shop for expiring groceries, or worry about the price of gas for my vehicle, and can take a few vacations and poon some while on those vacations...but I still don't go crazy and book the most expensive ladies, or see 3 a day.

You should probably refine your definition of "truly desperate", for starters.
I'm hearing this as a family feud question... Survey asked 100 people, if they were cutting back costs for economic reasons, what would they cut out before pooning costs?
Hmm is that why AMP's are busier these days? Not to direct the thread to talk about pricing but AMP's doing volume must take away from the available pie and market for the indie's [ which i've read about in the US and have begun dropping rates ] but to counter that, they started offering a half hour rate / time and that drummed up a lot of biz for many of the ladies...
In fact some enjoyed it as it was less of a connection and lingering effect, since everyone's got different motives for this but primarily, guys looking to release and girls looking for some coin.
On that note, any idea when we perceive this whole debacle to begin turning around? 2? 3? 5 years ?
Hmmm and what will it take to resolve / fix this?
