But they could sell the condo and move to an appt or outside the city.

Its like the pro football players who get their legs broken, shoulders busted. They need not to get the crap beaten out of them every week during the season but they stay in football because it pays in the millions of $$$.

Nobody looks or say they are victims and are forced to play football to live in their muti-million dollar homes

My point on the ladies is.....I am not sure they have much choice. They have very little skills (90%) to actually move around in the job market and obtain a job at their current wages. The addictions, the easy money, and the debt forces many of these ladies to stay. Not saying its bad!.

How are you so sure that these ladies dont have the skill or the education.. not that I'm the authority on these girls but I know quite a few personally (never via business) and I can tell you that its laziness and impatience that attacts/keeps them there....for the most part.

They, like us have the power to choose their paths...have problems and issues? they have the power to deal with them or just plain ol walk away from them (just like anybody else)...people who are "forced" dont have this luxury.

That girl...forced to the business to raise funds for college.

So..to the point. If she had the family support, the good paying job, she could do it without being in the biz. But she can't!

Goalie don't be fooled.... theres nothing special about these girls; their personal issues and problems arent any different than the rest of us. They arent the only ones that may have had to pay their way through school lol. What do you think everyone else does? They go out and work their ass off; SP'ing isnt the only way to fund your education.

There are people out there who are single parents, up to their eye balls in debt, financial problems, sexually assaulted, have a f*cked up family.....list goes on..... most of these people are not SPs; they make their choices and live their lives like anybody else. Its not easy, but thats life.

Perhaps my experience is unrepresentative and perhaps the Indies who post on TERB and MERB are unrepresentative but certainly the vast majority of both are intelligent, are trying to better themselves either thorough degrees or getting their financial houses in order.

The only notable exception had good foreign Academic credentials which couldn't be translated into a similar Canadian job without Canadian Academic credentials. It was understandable to me why she had an attitude (and was far from GFE,) then again I heard nothing from her which indicated she was trying to get back on her feet - rather it was the world owes me.
