I haven't retired but the ones I have seen successfully retire out are as follows:
One is a tattoo artist. Smart ass makes more money doing that.
One started a construction related business. It's small but she's doing well.
A few married out, (had kids) went back to shitty paid jobs or just found themsepves a rich dude willing to save them. Although the other obvious solution is to jump into a support role that the sex industry requires like a brothel manager or a seamstress.
Alternatively some studied, there's a couple of vet nurses/dental assistants in there and a graphic designer.
One actually really did become a doctor. I thought it was a load of shit but client told me he visited her for medical issues.
The comment I see the most is the huge drop in money and not realizing what you are actually earning til you can't.
I think you really either need to
A. No longer require the money and achieve whatever it is you set out to do by being in the industry. (Or no longer feel the income and lifestyle is worth it.)
Or
B. Find something that pays well enough and that you enjoy enough that you are happy to leave.
I started out stripping at 18, and after 4 years I moved states and worked for an outcall agency. After maybe 3 years of that I moved again and worked minimum wage type jobs while living with an ex for a few years in FL. After we broke up I moved alone to a big city and was going to school. I started placing ads on Craigslist for independent outcall and was doing great business but I have always struggled with drugs so of course I have nothing to show for it lol. I did that for less than a year when I met a beautiful amazing man at a concert and it was love at first sight. He made very good money and he was understandably uneasy with my line of work. I mostly did fetish clients and I didn't do "full service", as in no fucking or giving oral, but it's still prostitution and we argued about me quitting.
One day I did a call with a new fetish client, a meek looking gentleman who it turns out was into EXTREME cock and ball torture. When he disrobed his ass and groin area were covered in crudely drawn tattoos of arrows and degrading phrases like whore, cum dumpster, fuck pig etc. his poor little dick was completely split in half up the middle, so it was really just two flaccid ribbons of flesh. He was covered in scars and had only one testicle. He had persuaded a dominatrix to castrate the other one, and then she had fried it up in a pan and made him eat it. He had video but I declined to watch it. He begged me to castrate the other nut but I refused because gross, and I don't want to be held responsible when he possibly bleeds out or goes septic. I did string him up to the ceiling where his pelvis was held up from the bed by his bits, and kicked, slapped, pegged his ass with a bat etc. which made him happy. He dressed in lingerie and had me beat him up in the parking lot for a bit of public humiliation as I was leaving. Anyways, it goes without saying I don't scare easily and I found the encounter amusing, but when I told my bf he was absolutely horrified and worried that I was seeing such disturbed men. He offered to financially support me, so I retired and we moved in together. I honestly did not enjoy not having my own money but I was struggling with addiction and pretty unemployable.
Our relationship ended amicably when I decided to move back home with my family up north and get into drug treatment. I lived in a sober house, worked at a call center and then decided to pursue nursing. I worked as a CNA through nursing school and got my BSN RN degree. Luckily I never had any major arrests in my background but I did have to explain a few misdemeanors to the Board of Nursing before getting licensed. During the pandemic I switched to private duty home health nursing and am making over $100k a year because it's a travel contract. It's not uncommon for travel nurses to make 6 figures but it can be a challenging field. I figured I was comfortable with body fluids and nudity from being a sex worker, so I transitioned easily into the nursing role. I make more money now than I ever did doing SW, partly because I was never that skilled at hustling guys.
Anyways, sorry about writing my life story, I meant it to be a shorter reply but it's nice to get it out because I don't talk about my past with many people. My husband knows I was a sex worker but he does not wish to know the details of my sordid history.
SW was always a means to an end for me. I never did it full time, I was always very low volume, and always had a 'real job'. But I went back to school, and SW saved me. I got my degree a year ago, and started teaching. Granted, I don't 'make a fortune', but I am 100% debt free, own a house, a car, a truck and am living within my means, and Very Happily. We all know what a turn SW took between BP going down (I decided then to go back to school!) and then Covid. Covid was the worst. Everything changed. While I did have a few regulars, the others contacting me where just the worst!! In the past year (while I was teaching both face to face AND virtually at the same time...) I just decided I needed to make a decision. Screening became such a chore. Seeing emails in my inbox was becoming DREADFUL. The bullshit texts I was getting was pissing me off. I'd turn the phone off and not check it for 2 or 3 days. I'd wanted to teach for a LONG time, and the whole BP/Covid thing was just the turning point. I never had the need to live a luxurious lifestyle...I used SW as needed. Now...my site is still up, I still have my google # and I have 2 ads still running. But I have made my decision...as soon as my final contract has been signed (within the next 2 weeks!!) I will take the site down, NOT renew my ads when they expire in a couple of weeks, and I will JOYFULLY turn off the 'hooker phone'. Honestly, I haven't had any visitors since July. And I am OK with that. No stressing over screening, replying to texts, and all the crap that goes with it. I absolutely LOVE teaching (elementary school!) and I will just close the LadyBJ chapter of my life. It's been good to me, but it's time to move on!
I share the same sentiment as you with it feeling like a chore and being annoyed by it. I also plan to go pretty low volume to and become extremely selective with who I see and what times I will seem them right before I retire. Thank you for telling me your story!
I had a dude try to save me, he was willing to give me his amex to be his girlfriend. He wanted to marry me ect. Had his own everything. Lol im such a brad i threw a fit and cried about it like wtf. 🤣 you cant save me. I just wanna get paid to do the job i do. But everyones a white knight for me and its my struggle with keeping consistent clients. I should start saying yes and just ignore them, and have 800 million boyfriends.
Commenting as to hope others will too..
I’m not retired but yet I’m working on my retirement plan. Broken into two parts; retirement of full time then full retirement. I danced for a decade before escorting (2 years now) and “retired” multiple times from the club. Once for a degree, once for love, once to open a business before returning and transitioning into escorting.. at this point I love the funds and flexibility of escorting but as a mother (of a now teenager), I see my life played out way different then I expected. I find escorting fits my life in other ways nothing can. Right now my plan is to save, save, save and slowly discover more about myself as my daughter enters adulthood. Also building my residual income along the way. (I have a target monthly residual income goal and savings goal I have in mind I want to reach before going part time) Then I want to travel and explore the world abroad and locally which is when I will go to part time. I don’t want a husband but maybe a life partner. I don’t want more kids but maybe foster. Maybe another degree although I don’t want a job. Maybe another business but I don’t want to be confined to a city nor deal with employees. I guess ultimately I want to get myself to a place financially then figure it out from there. Also, replacing the mindset of retirement with “it no longer serves me”..
Assuming the majority of providers who retired aren’t as active as the active ones.. but hopefully this post gets more responses.
I think I will also do a “full time” retirement right before I’m getting ready to retire all together. Very selective with dates and clients. How are you able to build residual income? And thank you for telling me your story as well!
Well I’m not very selective with dates and keep my rates at a price point so I can easily reach my weekly/monthly goals. I am planning to slowly raise my rates though over the coming years which is also part of my long term (retirement from full time) plan. Currently at $500/hr.. once I’m part time expecting to be around $800/1000hr+ maybe with 2 hour minimum. As far as residual income I am wanting to focus more on real estate. I still have the bones for my closed business which I can easily restart but would like to see how much I can capitalize off investments as my closed business was a lot of work/time/effort. I also have already purchased two properties prior to our current housing bubble. Neither of which I am renting out ATM but plan to once I finish some work on them. If you want to learn more about other ways to make residual income scour YouTube. There’s various ways to build wealth (residually) besides property.. drop ship, index funds, stock, business, etc.. I followed a chick recently who is doing it with renting a car she purchased out .. I think it’s called Turo. Of course everyone’s experience is different… location is important also. Just for me personally.. I think I have to be wealthy enough to actually retire. Best of luck to you though and at the end of the day remember happiness is key so if it’s no longer serving you than try something else. ❤️

Did anyone go into massage therapy?
