But I have no complaints about my salary; my public sector teachers' union has ensured that we are (still) very well paid. We also have one of the best defined-benefits pension plans in the country. I'm actually quite lucky in that department. <br /><br />My spousal support will end in six years and the need to assist with university tuition or to have kids living at home as dependants will end sooner than that. So as to my 'cash flow' problem, this too shall pass!Buddy Bearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18052407067718899985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3970098682068094639.post-8119674542712271102013-06-05T20:16:05.866-07:002013-06-05T20:16:05.866-07:00All joking aside, I know what teachers make (at le...All joking aside, I know what teachers make (at least in the US).

This winter, I spent quite a bit of time with a gay guy who runs a local escort service. He assured me that I would be in demand as a gay escort, even at my age. <br /><br />He was in no way trying to recruit me but was just pointing out that many of his clients were seeking a mature "daddy" type.Buddy Bearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18052407067718899985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3970098682068094639.post-57355076449870363802013-06-05T18:33:47.135-07:002013-06-05T18:33:47.135-07:00Did I miss the post where you decided to become a ...Did I miss the post where you decided to become a rent boy?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3970098682068094639.post-74184000215353425452013-06-05T15:05:52.716-07:002013-06-05T15:05:52.716-07:00Jay: yes, I have good company then!

If I was in a very solid relationship with a man my age (where we lived together), I'd still want to occasionally invite another man, most likely young and hot, as a mutual plaything.

It's an important and highly controversial issue in gay politics. <br /><br />(As I am being bold enough to ask, I will tell you about my relationship. Shortly after the husband and I realized that it would be "forever," he said that we should also be realistic -- "we're gay men: sex happens." And so it has, both singly and together in threeways. We remain deeply committed to each other through everything.)
