Contact Admin. Skip navigation! Story from Money Diaries. Welcome back to Money Diaries Monday! At the start of each week, we take a deep dive into Money Diaries in a variety of ways, from recurring articles to fresh pieces for the MD community. Today, we asked a legal sex worker in Nevada to track her money for an entire week β both what she spends and what she earns. I typically bring in mid-six figures. During tax season, many things for us are deductible β condoms, lube, massage oil, photo shoots, my computer, my cell phone, the cost to get my hair cut, makeup, etc.
Paycheck: Varies, as I'm an independent contractor. My roommates are two cats, two dogs, and one pig. I pay for pet sitters on an as-needed basis. Student Loan Payments: Paid in full as of this month!
Day One. I have two cats, two dogs, and a mini-pig. I love spending my morning with them on my days off. After breakfast, we go for a walk around the block. I consider it an errand day, when I go grocery shopping and take care of what needs to be done. Today, I have a breakfast date with my coworker and best friend Roxanne Price. We live right next to each other and often go out to a local breakfast spot.
We talk about the work week, our cats, video games, etc. We switch off on who treats for breakfast; this week, it's my turn.
Cue work-life crossover, where I notice a local client across the room. We exchange knowing smiles while we wait. I drive to Whole Foods in Reno, as it's the only shop that stocks everything I need. I purchase a week's worth of groceries, including chicken breasts, salad mix, salmon, fruits, and assorted vegetables. One of my regulars is at the ranch looking to visit with me. I quickly toss the cold items into the fridge and head out the door. We exchange a hug and a kiss, then head back to my room to negotiate.
