I made a quick count of WG's currently active on ESA and counted 1235 adverts. Assuming that each WG receives two bookings a day at an average (low) rate of R600/booking a total of R741,000.00 would change hands daily.
Further assuming that each WG works on average 25 days per month this would then amount to R18,525,000.00 per month TAX free. SARS should think of legalizing this industry sooner than later.

What I know is that in 2015 when I was working 5 days a week I was able to save about R20 000 a month, just had too many depending on me so I couldn't achieve much.

They just need to find a way to tax us that's all otherwise they could have legalised it long time ago, not necessarily for the industry itself but for their benefit.

Check the herbal blend for example, it's marijuana but went through some process, they added some flavour and you buy it from adult shops.

Everybody are here to make a living. Being a WG or Chemist, or Lawyer or gardner. No diffrence. Everyone needs to support a family. How they do it. Up to them.

There is always a problem with assumptions

A gap in the market...? I wonder...

How does one survive on 18K per month really !

As sad as it is, there are families that have to survive on far less than R18K per month, and then there is us, complaining about the price if punting.

For someone who don't have to look after other people it's easy to survive and actually live comfortable with R18k a month but for people who are raising kids it's very difficult hence this industry is forever growing.

Mmm 18 grand to fuck strangers and risk your life hardly a fuckng fortune is it?? Why would anyone want sars involved in this, are you jealous cause you really should not be..
you are also forgetting the rent / house rates most of these lady's are paying, absolutely insane the one girl in Bryanston is paying 5 grand a week and one in fourways is 3 grand a week for a shit hole, R1100 a day for apartment complex in benmore, most massage girls paying 50 to 60 per cent to the house.., actually think we should set up a punter investment club cause those places are creaming the return

@Vanilla... I agree. Being the sole provider, looking after family members aren't easy. R18 000 only pay my rent and car... but it was a choice I made... I need to maintain a decent lifestyle or end up in a room in someone's back yard with no goal in life. Hard work will get me where I need to be. I don't have much time left in this industry... so I need to put in everything.
