What is my tipping policy and why 7-15-26

My tipping policy is "According to your income." The average tip is $20-$40 on a $120 incall. This follows for the majority of my clients who are affluent enough (having disposable incomes) to be able to employ me for a massage, maybe once a month. I call these clients "working" or "Upper-middle class." If you are wealthy (own two houses or more or identify as "a part of the 1%") a tip of $100-$200 is appropriate, especially for very challenging work, such as prostate drainage, or activities that fall outside of a so-called "regular massage." Please be honest. I am at heart, a working-class-educated creative-artist "type." Doing massage for me is not a hobby, game, or side hustle (like so, so many of my "co-horts," it is a profession in which I give 100%. Thank you for acknowledging that I am not just another anonymous number, flavor of the month or object to be used. It's appreciated more than you know.

Of course there are always extenuating circumstances, i.e., if you have cancer or are struggling (out of work, behind in the rent, AI took your job, laid up with a broken leg or joint replacement) let me know and we can work something out. I get it. Nothing is easy in life, especially for the 99% of us not born into generational wealth and especially with this current stupid, corrupt and greedy administration in Washington along with the unmitigatedly high cost of living in New York City and the surrounding environs. Thank you.
