Economic value of the WL Industry ?

I wonder if Scomo or his ugly rapist gang mates have any handle on the ACTUAL value, monetary value that is, of this industry ?
do WL get a count in anything statistical ? are they are recognised part of our monetary society ? what is the $$ amount of turnover/income across Australia ?
who pays tax ? and how much ? if any ..
seems to me that some opinion writers here spend hundreds every week .. it could add up to several millions in no time flat across this wonderful nation ..
not to mention the Union funded outings and the like ..
and with direct covid directly affecting incomes, how many WL are on jobkeeper ?? musings ...

Interesting subject.

I have only done it a few months however I do keep records of income for lodging tax return and I got myself an ABN the reason is I don't want to just disappear off the radar, especially when it comes to wanting to purchase a house and having a huge gap in my income history..

I don't know if you could get jobkeeper maybe jobseeker? I wouldn't know i came into the industry after the need for any of those I had a stable job thankfully during the worst.

I reckon it might be in the 100M$ range .. annually .. and that's not even looking at the savings from things like divorces, rapes , unwanted preanancy , etc etc
and I bet a fair portion of the "cash" taken goes international too .. on that note Australia is providing a fair bit of direct international 'aid' .. lol

I agree that this is an interesting topic. I'd be pretty sure the industry contributes majorly to the economy. Yes tax is paid by agencies and ladies (though as with every industry I'm sure there are some who avoid doing so).

I always paid tax on my earnings as a WL.

Then there is the income made by WL's and agencies which is spent back in the economy.

The amounts I'd be interested to have a estimated ball park figure but I wouldn't know where to look.

I think we can contribute majorly to Australia's economic recovery. It's our duty fella's to see as many WLs as possible as often as possible.
And I bet most WLs spend a fair bit on Lingerie , make-up , clothes , shoes etc. So ladies do your thing ! And spend your money locally , Buy Australian where possible , eat , drink and shag AUSSIE !
And have agreed with Promassuer63 before about the huge social benefits and thus economic savings of the work that WLs do.

Seeing as you can buy industry market research from IBISworld and the amount of scholarly articles available on google scholar. It’s well researched and values are well estimated.
I’ll go a lit review for those interested once I’ve finished my major uni assignment this week.

Sorry, my post was deleted as it was not appropriate. I don’t get how the whole post is fine but mine isn’t ? All good but is the forum a place to have direct statements regarding a (gang )as Promassuer63 stated and where there money goes etc ? Isn’t I’m guessing the comment is fine because WL was a comparison? I not shore but just a guess ?
I mean no rudeness or dispute my point just a strong statement. Why on here to make public seen ? a site to make digs at people in publicwon’t write again . I will only scroll night .

I think you've totally misconstrued the post. It wasn't about gangs and rapists. It's about WL's helpful contributions to our economy.

and that's a subject totally worthy of its own thread .. IMO
but yeh, I was really more about how much of a serious contribution the industry makes , and yet is almost completely ignored, to the wellbeing of our financial and wellness economies .. cheers

Tina .. my apologies for anything about Scomo's club that has caused you grief .. I really believe they are behaving BAD in EVERY way ..
but my thoughts were with the WL industry and the BENEFICIAL contributions made to the 'economy' overall. PM

Unlike the rest of us, SWers do not pay a personal tax on their income because they deal mostly in cash behind closed doors with no receipts or transaction trails. Whereas the government takes back 45% of what I make in tax, a sex worker can easily make 5K-20K a week and keep all of it. Let that sink in.

I think the government needs come up with a better way to monitor and tax the sex industry which at this stage is largely a shady industry with zero accountability.

Hello every body!! Stop, take a breath and read the original post properly !!! It refers to Prime Minister Scott 'Scommo' Morrison and his gang of rapists that is mentioned is the Liberal party! So the writer is asking if the GOVERNMENT recognises the economic contribution of the sex industry.
Ask some first if you think you might not understand before you comment and blow up.
FFS !!!

Really. You know this how?
Majority of payments these days in agencies are paid by credit card. And as for cash payments not being declared, you are quite wrong. Ladies need to show their income for loans , rentals, etc and aren't dishonest just because they are paid cash. They are also monitored quite closely by the ATO. Let that sink in.

Exactly .. lets not make generalisations and assumptions !!


And just about everyone on this forum is either a provider or consumer of this industry, and it is we consumers who create the demand for these services to exist!

the way I see it - WL who use their coin to live and buy property need either declare legit as SW, or launder through a registered business or some other way, in which tax is paid - so that their money can be used for purchase of property, investments or business.

Let’s just consider a lot of their money goes as a great big stimulus package for Australia because I reckon it would go straight back into the economy via retail.

Ooohhh honey you need to be very careful generalising there!

There absolutely is the opportunity for SWers to work off the books and just use cash, just he same as plumbers, mechanics, hairdressers etc etc etc can all work for cash. But it by no means that SWers in general do not pay tax.

The majority of the women I work with have their own ABN's and operate as sole traders. As such their hair, makeup, clothes related costs are all tax deductible.

But I for 1 would be all for the government to "normalise" the industry. Reduce the stigma, increase the safety of all SWers. Win win for all.
