I'd take the risk. These businesses are bringing in $$$$

To get hired they have to show me what they got.

Anyone want to share ideas?

Yeah good luck. Recruiting is definitely the hardest part but don’t forget location, protection (never proven but there’s definitely spots that pay LE to look away and for a heads up). also the biggest challenge I think is that behind almost every single set up whether it be an amp, lmp, FH, even more legit HE spots, there is some mafia controlling it. I don’t think they’ll care too much for some random dude taking even 1 dollar from them. Your idea has definitely crossed a lot of our minds including mine, but my suggestion is just enjoy this hobby as a customer, mind your business and find some other way to make money.

There is definitely soooo much more that goes on behind the scenes that some of us may even know about somehow, but most of us will never know and prob don’t want to know

Whenever I saw the cleaning crew at my office, I always thought why not start a business like that. But then I heard that I can get killed for doing such a thing. It sounds like conspiracy theory. But think again. If making money is so easy doing something, why not everyone doing it?

Seems like quite the operational headache.

I've ran plenty of legitimate businesses before, those have their own headaches. I can only now begin to imagine what these places go through

That's a thought you should remove from your mind unless you have a naturally criminal mind. 95% of the owners/operators of these establishments are plugged into the local crime syndicates. They're usually established in that world or have gotten permission to operate and pay a hefty tax to do so. The logistics aren't as cut and dry as finding talent.

Don't want to sound like an asshole, but considering the actions of a couple right-wing governors, we do have an group of potential talent in the city. Scope out around the times square and port authority areas, near the hotels.

They will probably be lower end, more of the $100-200 instead of $300+, but it beats selling candy bars and chocolates that they're making these kids do on the subway. I think the ladies will like the easy money.

In terms of the business, you are renting space to these girls. Are they banging customers on the living room table, in front of you? If not, you don't know what is going on in the room. You're operating the "Holiday Inn and Out." The negative aspects are removing the soiled sheets and pillowcases after each encounter, and mopping off the splooge from the walls and floors everyday.

The barriers to entry I think are quite low. If you wanted to do it yourself, is a member of the "local crime syndicate" gonna knock on your door and ask for a cut like they're the mafia? Is this a movie?

I'll say this respectfully... what rock do you live under? You think all these Russian fasthouses are not controlled or taxed by the Russian mob??? Or all the new Hungarian apots aren't affiliated with the Albanian gangs? Is it like "The Sopranos"? Probably not, but these things are real and do happen. See a review here about a monger being in an apartment when 2 goons kicked in the door and demanded their tribute.

Okay, so first yes majority of most successful joints are run by some local affiliated gangs. Where do you think they get these girls from? They bring them from over seas on tourist visas. These girls have to pay them back for the trip, room and board.
If you aren't affiliated, you will either A. have to pay a tax or B. pay for protection once discovered. Nevermind the LE shakedown.
Then you have to worry about accidentally employing any underage girls. If you do by accident happen to employee one, most likely the Feds will be on your ass. Then you are facing some huge time.

Best bet, is to do it on the downlow. If you own rentals units, you can easily have one of your apartments used for such space.
Then comes recruiting? recruiting and maintaining will be the hardest part.
Then it comes down to which level of cliental you are servicing. Fast house (60-200 range) Mid (150-300 range) or high (400-1000+ range)
Also, need to keep it low key so you don't attract Russian, Italian, Albanian or even cartel gangs.

I read that review. It sounded like a robbery in process. I'm not disputing that there is a criminal underworld present. I agree with everything you just posted. I'm saying that if he sets up his own joint, with his own girls, he should expect a knock from an Albanian or Russian or Asian? For what, unless he's stealing their girls on their payroll. Someone even tried snitching to the DOB earlier this year about several amps, whatever happened from that, other than some embarrassment?

Someone suggested partnering with an ex-provider or MMS. That would be a good idea if you can establish that trust.

This whole criminal underworld element among different ethnic groups is probably the most under-reported aspect of this game. Someone should get Vice to do a feature lol.

With zero experience? Nah. Become a provider yourself (for female clients I think) to understand this business from the inside. You will see a full picture of pros and cons and then you decide if it is worth it.

Vice News has been going downhill for years. Their Ch.11 restructuring won't do any favors for their production value either.

As said by the foremost philosopher the notorious BIG, “ never get high on your own supply”. Show you what they got? There’s a thin line between recruiting and a rape charge so if your serious about opening a business retire the monger
