I honestly have come to prefer not having rates posted in the ad. It gives me a reason to bring it up on the phone instead of just hoping the person read it correctly and has the appropriate amount on hand.
When I first came to nyc, I lived in Brooklyn for a few years and only did outcalls. You make way less that way, but also spend way less. It’s definitely doable, if you choose that route.
I've just reactivated my ad on rentmen and am looking forward to seeing how many guys are using that site as compared with rentboy.

A clean bill of health means a lot. In addition to always using condoms, it shows that if by some change the condom breaks, I have not put you at risk.
Although no one has ever asked me for this I would not be offended if they did. Every time I get tested, my doctor asks me if I'd like a copy of the results. I keep them on file just in case.
