The pros and cons of leasing vs. purchasing

Purchasing...or buying the cow.

The math on the Paul McCartney-Heather Mills divorce is as follows: After 5 years of marriage, he paid her $49 million.
Assuming he had sex every night during their 5 year relationship it ended up costing him $26,849 per time. ....That's Heather above.

Leasing

On the other hand, New York Governor Elliot Spitzer’s hooker, Kristen, an absolute stunner charges $4,000 per night.
This is Kristen below

Had Paul McCartney “employed” Kristen for 5 years, he would have paid $7.3 million in total, for sex every night for 5 years: (a $41.7 million savings).
Value-added benefits are...
a 22 year old
no begging
no coaxing
never a headache
happily agrees to all requests
no complaining
no honey-do lists
Best of all, she leaves and comes back when asked.

All at 1/7th the cost and no legal fees.
Sometimes leasing just makes more sense.

Not that you needed it....but a little more evidence;

Belgian widow sues Antwerp prostitutes for electric sex!

Death by hooker.....what a way to go!

A Belgian widow is suing two prostitutes who she claims encouraged her husband to take drugs and have sex when he was unwell, leading to his death.
The wealthy businessman — who had a heart condition — asked the sex workers to bring an electric sex toy, champagne and ecstasy tablets for a "special Christmas treat", British newspaper Daily Mail reports.

The man, 38, had fatal heart attack while partying with the prostitutes, who were paid more than $4400 for the night. Hey...the Belgians can keep up with Eliot Spitzer....although this guy did get a two for one.

The widow's lawyer Yvan Naessens said the women encouraged the man to take part in the activities even though he "appeared unwell".
They allegedly did not try to prevent him from using the sex toy, which provided electric shocks, and only wiped the back of his neck with a damp towel when he became unconscious.
The sex toy that was used on the man came with a printed warning label of the possible danger due to high voltage use.
The businessman was regular client of the prostitutes and they are fighting the amount of damages in the case in Antwerp court.

Girls Gone Wild's Joe Francis Wins the Lottery

Girls Gone Wild from Belgium Studs on Vimeo.

Eliot Spitzer resigned in shame as New York Governor after paying for a whore he could have watched for $29.95! Turns out call-girl Ashley Alexandra Dupre has popped up in the archives of the Girls Gone Wild vaults, guess who's ready to cash in on the situation.
Now instead of paying out tons of cash to get the famous whore for his films, GGW's Joe Francis just has to reach into the closet for the tapes he already shot in 2003 in Miami.
Ashley Dupre signed on to spend a week with the GGW crew showing off her goodies. She also signed away her rights from the time when she appeared on the video. This helps save Francis $1 Million after he offered her to appear in his new magazine. After finding the tape in the archives Francis pulled out of the offer.

"Says Francis to Associated Press tonight, “It’ll save me a million bucks. It’s kind of like finding a winning lottery ticket in the cushions of your couch.”
A preview video is reportedly going to go live on GirlsGoneWild.com

The prostitution "crackdown" in Amsterdam

Amsterdam said it would close nearly one-third of the 350 windows that prostitutes use in the city's notorious Red Light District, invoking a 2003 law that allows it to revoke the licenses of brothels when it suspects that they are being used for money laundering or other illegal financial activities. ''We're not knights on a morality crusade, and this is intended to target financial crime, not prostitution per se,'' the city spokesman, Martien Maten, told The Associated Press. The Netherlands legalized prostitution in 2000, but even before then, the Red Light District was tolerated and had become a tourist attraction.

Read this for a public choice interpretation, and here are some real Dutch facts. The real point is real estate. The red light district is in the oldest, most beautiful area of Amsterdam. In the last 20 years, it has changed from a mixed neighborhood to one almost exclusively peopled by the very well to do. They pay a fortune for those apartments and homes. The talk of cleaning up the neighborhood for the sake of the prostitutes and to lessen criminal behavior is simply a smokescreen. What they wish to do is to create a more up-scale neighborhood - it is gentrification pure and simple.
What is offensive in all this is that anyone who bought a home in that area knew what they were getting into - large crowds every night and all night long. It is to lessen this that the district is being “shrunk”. Less windows for the prostitutes - a more compact area for the tourists - less annoyance for the wealthy.
Prostitutes play the same role as gays and artists elsewhere? They move into a run down area, build it up, and along come the yuppies. It is not about anything more than that.
