Not Like When I Went To College

From the Orlando Sun Sentinel: The struggling University of Central Florida business major struck a deal.
Needing money, she turned to a "sugar daddy" she found on a popular website.
They had dinner. They had sex. Her take: $200.
A few months later, when she needed to buy textbooks, she went back to SeekingArrangement.com. There, she found another "date" who flew into town. No dinner this time.
They met at a local hotel and had sex.
Her earnings: $400.
"I've worked my whole life since high school, and that was easy," said the 20-year-old sophomore, who would not be named for fear that her family would find out. "It was like a nice way to make quick money, and I tried not to think too much about it."
She is among the hundreds of thousands of men and women who, either having trouble making ends meet or simply wanting to upgrade their lifestyles, are turning to the Internet for help finding "sugar daddies" and "sugar mommies." The majority, though, are women looking to be supported by older, successful men with money to burn.
The hunt for wealthy benefactors — discreetly or otherwise — is as old as money itself. But people are taking it to a new level by turning to SeekingArrangement.com and other websites. And as the cost of a college education in Florida continues to rise, more Florida students are choosing this option as a way to cover their expenses, including tuition and rent, according to spokeswoman Jennifer Gwynn and founder Brandon Wade of SeekingArrangement.com.  http://www.orlandosentinel.com/features/education/os-sugar-daddies-florida-college-students-20130203,0,5596774.story
Gee, when I went to college at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, I had at least 3 jobs plus was a volunteer on the Maple Bluff Fire Department as an EMT and firefighter.
Who knows, maybe I could have been a stud muffin and found a sugar mama and.....Nah, I have the face for radio and a voice that Helen Keller would plug her ears from.
