He was just blowing off steam
Spitzer Swallows wasn’t enough! We need more Spitzer and hooker puns?
So, last night me and the Mrs. were talking about Spitzer and I said: So, if I came home and said I was doing a hooker, what do you think it would have cost me? She says about $200. I said Ok, she’s a high class one. The Mrs. says $500. I told her that Spitzer paid $4,300. Obviously, our sense of scale/class is low.
Update: Ironic how he was caught.
And xrlq has exclusive!
Even more: A line of Spitzer clothing!

I once talked to a woman who told me how she left her profession as an engineer (she had a masters degree) and “went into business for herself”. She was exceptionally physically fit but I judged her age at early 50’s. She charged $400 for an hour and a half, $800 for an evening, $1500 for the entire night. In addition to her sexual expertise she prided herself on her ability to converse on a wide variety of topics, extensive travel experience, business experience, and foreign language expertise.
It’s not difficult to imagine Spritzer was paying $4,300 for a weekend which included travel and a young, smart, highly skilled escort.

The “ironic” link appears to be broken.

Trouble is: He wasn’t with them for an hour.
I am really enjoying the fact that he was using structuring to hide the transactions. He is going to jail on that one. The Feds hate that sort of shit.

Money laundering, wiretaps, increased surveillance powers, and using obscure laws that are mostly crap! I’m personally enjoying the shit out of it.

When I lived in Brooklyn, Spitzer’s AAG that specialized in going after funny money schemes lived across the hall from us. Nice guy, but had this dead eye look when he started talking about work. These guys are perfectly cynical. We had a beers a couple of times at the corner bar and I chided him about the “trial in the press” tactic. He said that going to jail was not enough of a warning to Wall Street frauds. You have to destroy them personally to make it stick. After that I was honestly afraid of him. Normally, I would be inclined to like a crusader type like Spitzer but that guy could give two shits about Grandma’s pension. Two shits. He thought he was on the fast track to President.

I know Spitzer is from money, but I wonder what the real source of his ‘ho funding is?
Client nine might be on someone else’s dime.

well, seems the working girl reported that he asked her to do things that might not be considered safe, I hope he gets a trial in the press

You’re wife is a saint. I have a feeling the most common answer would be, “The house, the car, the kids, and half your estate…”

Those boxer shorts should have the “Client #9” right over the crotch…
If SayUncle had to ask how much a hooker cost, it clearly means he never visited one. It was a subliminal message to his wife.
(Of course, it would have been really, really funny for him to say, “WRONG! It cost $150!”)

Remember the song titled “Love Potion Number 9” ? I’m real old, so I do.
