Let's talk BUDGETING

Ah yes, the least glamorous part of being a sugar baby, the fiscal responsibility. When many of us get into this lifestyle, we picture living fancy, spending without a care, and getting everything we want. Well, welcome to the real world. My allowance is $5000 a month, and if I bought all of the shoes and bags and clothes my heart desired, I could spend all that money easily. But that would be silly, because as nice as shoes and bags and clothes are, they aren’t the main reason I got into this lifestyle and they certainly won’t pay the bills if I ever get desperate.

The thing is, I suck at budgeting and spending money. I tend to use it up to quickly and then I’m desperate for money around the end of the month. But a SD can drop you on a dime, so this is obviously not ideal. So I’m implementing a strict budget for myself for the year and here’s what I’m doing so you can too.

Set aside half of your allowances- I know, not fun at all. But it’s important to try to save at least half of your allowances. Buy a safe and stash half in there every month. For me, this is my “travel-car-life after college-rainy day” fund. I’m saving towards specific goals, but I also know that money is there should I ever need it.

Give yourself a “weekly allowance”- Take your monthly allowance and break it up into weekly increments, but not just for the month. Try to break it up into 4 months worth of weeks. For example, when I get my $5000, $3000 will go into savings. Then, I’m breaking up the money into 13 envelopes with $125 dollars in each of them, which will last me from now until May. This is my money I can use for groceries, booze, going out with friends, basically anything I need for the week. Is $125 a week glamorous? Not really, but I can comfortably live on it and it gives me 13 weeks to find a new SD if my currant one decides to dump me for whatever reason. I will then add to each weekly folder. So next month, I’ll put another $125 in each of the remaining envelopes, and I’ll have $250 to spend every week. My weekly “goal” is $300, so the month after that I’ll add another $50 to each remaining envelope, then I’ll put $100 in 15 new envelopes to save for summer and repeat.

Budget for Shopping and Big Purchases- If you were paying attention above, you may have realized that 3000+(13x125)=4625, not $5000. That’s because I budgeted $375 to go shopping for the month. Look, shopping is obviously super fun, but walking into a store with your full allowance in hand is just stupid and irresponsible. Bring the amount you budgeted with you and stick to it. Shopping is way more fun when you don’t have “oh no, I shouldn’t have bought all this stuff I wasted so much money” regret. I think ahead to any big purchases I need to make and plan for them. For example, I know I want to get my hair done in March, which is going to be expensive. So I budgeted extra money into March’s “spending” category for that expense.

Roll Your Weekly Money Over- So odds are I won’t be spending my entire weekly budget every single week. What shall one do with this left over money? I’m putting into my “roll-over” envelope, which I will let accumulate. I can do whatever I want with this money. I can add it to the shopping budget for the month, use it to save up for a big purchase, or draw from it (not my savings) if I need a little extra one week.

Get a “bonus” Sugar Daddy for Big Things- Well, technically I already have one, so this is more of a suggestion. To me, a bonus SD is a SD who you see very infrequently, generally due to travel or work. Mine gives me $1500 every time we see each other, which is rare, due to his travel for work, about every 2 months. I view this as “bonus money” and I would use it on a single, large purchase that my monthly budget doesn’t account for, such as a new laptop, phone, expensive bag, etc.

Get you SD to Pay for as Much as Possible- Fucking duh.

lovingvalentina

You’re all beautiful and don’t let an ugly man make you feel anything less than that because you’re not giving him what he wants. They’ll try to make you feel like you’re not worth what you’re asking and that’s because THEY’RE not worth it.

Keep your head high, standards high and know your worth.

Much love xoxo

Sugar Baby Education 101: Wine & Food Pairing

When you are an SB, it is important for you to play the part in your SD’s life, meaning be well educated about things and have proper etiquette and KNOW your wine… or have at least an idea about wine and food paring.

So here, my hoes a little basic overview (if want to learn more about wine, just google that shit out!)

Just like adding milk into coffee will change its texture and taste; food when interacting with wine will affect its flavor. Different ingredients and preparation methods will bring out different taste sensations with the same bottle of wine.

There are a lot of pairing guidelines, but only one universal pairing principle –

A good pairing is when the food and wine do not overshadow each other. Wine and food can complement or contrast each other, as long as they do not mask each other’s unique flavor and characteristics.

Factors to Consider when Pairing

When pairing food, you are really complementing or contrasting four elements. The way the dish is prepared and cooked will affect these elements:

Body/ weight: heavy, medium, or light-body? Flavor intensity: weak, moderate, strong? Aroma: earthy, fruity, grassy, or herbal? Taste: sweet, spicy, acidic, sour, bitter?

Example 1: Most people prefer pairing Cabernet Sauvignon with steaks because they are both full-bodied, strong flavor, and the protein in the meat will soften the tannin in the wine. A venturing wine lover may pair a red steak with a full-bodied white Roussanne.

Example 2: With spicy, strong flavor Thai dishes, the classic gourmets would go for a Riesling. Its neutrality will complement Thai cuisine’s spices. Its acidity and med bodied will match the weight of the food. A venturing wine lover may pair with Gewurztraminer or Marsanne.

Our Favorite Wine and Food Pairings:

It is not always white wine with white meat… Pinot Noir, Beaujolais, Chianti are few handful reds that pair well with chicken. Below we have listed our favorite pairings as a good starting point:

Western Dishes:

Chicken – Full-bodied whites (Chardonnay, Chenin Blanc) or light reds (Beaujolais, Pinot Noir, Rioja, Chianti) Foie Gras / Pate - Sweet whites (Sauternes, Riesling Spatlese, Tokaji) Green Salad – Herby whites (Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Blanc, Sancerre, Pouilly-Fume, Vinho Verde) Grilled Fish – Light to medium bodied whites (Sauvignon Blanc, Vinho Verde, Chablis) Pasta (red sauce) – acidic reds (Barbera, Chianti, Zinfandel / Primitivo, Valpolicella) Pasta (white sauce) – fuller bodied whites (Chardonnay, Viognier, Gavi, Pinot Gris) Pizza - Sparkling or a fruity red (Prosecco, Barbera, Dolcetto, Valpolicella) Raw or steamed shellfish – Crisp, acidic wines (Champagne, Sauvignon Blanc, Chablis) Steak – Full-bodied red (Cabernet, Merlot, Syrah, Malbec, Barolo)

Asian Cuisines:

Chinese – Riesling, Gewurztraminer, Sauvignon Blanc, and Pinot Noir Japanese Sushi – Beaujolais, Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling Spicy Thai / Indian Curry – Viognier, Riesling, Gewurztraminer, Rousanne

Cheese:

Creamy soft brie or camembert – Champagne, Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, dry Riesling Strong goat cheese – Sancerre, Sauvignon Blanc, Pouilly-Fume Hard / Aged cheese – Bordeaux, Cabernet Sauvignon, Brunello, Dolcetto, Merlot, white Burgundy Semi-hard cheese – Semillon, Rioja Smoked cheese – Gewurztraminer, Sauternes, Shiraz Blue cheese – Sauternes, Banyuls, Port, Late harvest wines, Madeira, Amarone;

Last but not least, some PAIRING TIPS:

Acidic wines go well with many dishes. Sauvignon Blanc, dry Riesling, Chianti are great examples. In addition, acidic wines make salty dishes appear less salty. For fatty food such as foie gras, try Sauternes (an equally rich and intense wine). For spicy food, try fruity, low-alcohol wines such as Riesling and Gewurztraminer. Sweet food goes well with a bottle that is slightly sweeter.

Pair complex food with a simple wine. And pair simple food with a complex wine.

Sugar Baby Education 101: 7 Etiquette Habits

It is a big part of sugar baby’s lifestyle to be comfortable go out on dates with their SDs to high-end restaurants, opening galleries, charities, fundraisers, and balls. What most newbies do not know/lack is the proper etiquette habits.

For those men who surround themselves with successful people 24/7, would be a big turn off to be with a young lady who does not know how to behave and know the unspoken rules in the public. It is important for all sugar babies to know how to act classy and elegant, take your time, don’t be in a rush, be sophisticated and be a mystery for your SD.

When you are dating a millionaire, the right manners and ways of conducting yourself assume an even a greater importance since they indicate grooming and class – qualities which are important in the upper classes.

Here are a few tips on dating etiquette if you are seeing someone rich and successful and wish to come off as his/her ideal partner.

#1 How to Communicate

Not every thought that comes into your head should come out of your mouth. Vet your thoughts. Speaking your mind does not mean sharing every thought. Some thoughts are not appropriate and could cause irreparable damage to your relationships.

Never gossip. Most gossip is bad, negative and damages relationships.

Look everyone in the eye for no more than 5 seconds at a time, then divert your glance for another 5 seconds. Practice will turn this into a habit.

Make eye contact with people you speak with.

Never criticize, condemn or complain about anyone to another relationship. It’s a giant red flag. People will assume that you are bad mouthing them and will try to stay away from forming any strong relationships with you.

#2 Focus on your partner

When dating a rich man , it is important to let them know you value the time and effort your partner is spending on you. And one of the best ways to do this is by being attentive to your date. Maintain steady eye contact with him and listen actively to what he has to say. Smile often and present a positive body language. Also avoid fiddling with our phone (do not take pictures of the food, take snapchat of yourself, etc. do not present yourself as immature girl.). Unless you’re on call at a high-pressure job, you have no excuse for frequently checking your PDA. Flashing expensive technology makes you look self-absorbed and immature. If you must take a call or check a text, apologize for being rude, and tell your date why it’s necessary.

#3 Eating Etiquette

Believe it or not, most people don’t know how to eat. In the adult world of the successful, you need to know how to eat at social settings. Let’s go down the list:

As soon as you sit in your chair take the napkin off the table and drape it over your lap.

Never begin eating until everyone has their meal.

Never chew with your mouth opened.

Never talk while you’re chewing your food.

Never dip any food you’re eating into a sauce everyone is using.

Don’t wolf down your food. Eat at the same pace as everyone else at the table.

Never hold a spoon, fork or knife with your fist.

Outside fork is for salads, inside fork for the meal.

Never make gestures while your utensils are in your hands.

Never reach for anything like salt and pepper. Always ask someone to pass things like that.

Don’t slouch at the table. Sit straight up.

After the meal, excuse yourself and go to the bathroom and make sure you don’t have any food in your teeth. Carry a toothpick or something similar in your wallet or purse wherever you go.

If your date orders, compliment his choices, whether it is his choice of dessert or the wine. At the end of the dinner, thank your partner for inviting you out and don’t leave it for the next day.Focus

#4 Dress Etiquette

When dating a millionaire, it is crucial to turn out in a classy and elegant manner. Adopt a personal style which highlights your best features and above all, get the basics of grooming right. Even though you may not be able to afford a Louis Vuitton handbag or a Cartier watch, ensure that whatever you are wearing is suits you and is appropriate for the occasion.

Work and Job Interviews – Some professions have special purpose clothing like construction, roadwork, electricians etc. If you work in an office, dress like your boss or your boss’s boss. In some offices it’s business casual, in others, it’s a suit and tie for men. For women its slacks, or skirts with open collars, heels or no heels are ok.

Weddings, Wakes, Funerals – In most cases, this will be suit and tie for men. For women, it’s the same as work clothes but many women like to wear more formal gowns or a more stylish cocktail dress, usually worn with heels. Some cultures have special dress codes you need to be aware of.

Formals – Usually formals are black tie optional, black tie or white tie for men. Optional usually means a dark suit, tie or black bow tie, dark shoes. Black tie means black tuxedo, dark shoes, white tie means black tailcoat, white wing-collar shirt, white bow tie, black shoes for men. For women, it’s a long formal gown or short cocktail dress or dressy long skirt and top, usually worn with heels. White ties are very rare.

#5 Introducing Yourself

In life, you will be forced into situations where you will meet new people. This is an opportunity to develop valuable relationships.

There are 5 basic rules to making introductions:

Smile

Firm Handshake

Make Eye Contact

In one sentence explain who you are, why you’re there and who you know at the event

Ask Questions About the Person You are Introducing Yourself to.

#6 Basic Manners

Yes

Please

Thank you

Be punctual (Being punctual is especially important when dating the rich since for them time is money, and as soon as they find you tardy, they will see you as a waste of time.)

Excuse me when interrupting or entering a conversation

Don’t interrupt someone while they are talking

Don’t roll your eyes when someone says something you disagree with

Don’t look away when someone is talking to you

Never check your cell phone when talking to someone

Stay positive and keep criticisms and negative comments to yourself

Compliment, compliment, compliment

Thank anyone hosting an event, dinner etc.

Never curse or use inappropriate language during social events

Never be rude

#7 Learn to handle embarrassing moments

No one is born with perfect manners and it is all a matter of practice. So while dating your SD if you realize that you have committed a faux pas, make as little of it as possible. Ignore whatever you did or didn’t do and force your mind onto something else. Go on smoothly as if nothing happened and very soon people around you will do the same.

How to stand out as an SB

#1 Don’t talk about money at the get go.

Look, I understand. It’s tiring to get your hair done, makeup done and strut in heels and be on your best behavior on dates without knowing if your POT’s budget for an allowance meets your expectations.

But remember this - the best SB’s understand that the real value is in the intangible benefits that an SD can provide.

There are tons of millionaires who can shag you 4 times a month and give you money to pay off your rent, utilities and bills. No big deal there.

But finding someone you can connect with saves you all that faking of chemistry. If there’s a real mutual benefit there, you find someone who’s willing to invest time in you - to listen to your needs, as you will with his.

If your POT realizes that you’re in it for the long haul, and are interested in understanding how he got so successful - guess what?

You’d have snagged priceless lessons that’d help you be financial independent one day - even as a trophy wife.

#2 Have unshakeable standards

I just had a really nice first date with Champagne Pot yesterday. And he just sent me a text this morning to meet this wednesday for coffee and … head to the Hilton for an hour. He mentioned $500 and a talk about future arrangements.

This is what I replied:

“hi xxx - I’m really flattered that you’re interested in me :-) But I hope you understand that even if I’m a sexual person, I wouldn’t be comfortable being intimate with someone who isn’t my formal sponsor. I’m extremely exclusive, and hope that you know that I’d love to first discuss if we want a similar arrangement before becoming intimate - as much as I’m attracted to you ;-)”

Sure. I kinda would like the $500 before going for my $500 WYP date. That’s a grand for half a day’s work, and I don’t even have a model’s body.

But hey, I’m tall, smart and hopelessly ladylike. I command attention whenever I step into a room. Heck, I was doing my nails yesterday and every one did a double take when they passed by the salon. And nope, I’m not even skinny.

It’s the way I carry myself, It’s the way I dress. Always classy, always confident - always smiling and charming.

I used to think about all that was wrong with me. That was then.

Guys can find an easy fuck if they want. Go ahead. I’m not that girl. Don’t get me wrong. I love a good fuck. If I’m attracted to a guy? Heck I’d do him without thinking if I’m getting paid. Sex is sex. I still enjoy it. But I won’t fake it for money.

What my SD will get though - is my grace and attention and all that jealousy from men who’d pass us by.

Really. I’m sure a lot of you babies are even more beautiful than I am. Remember that you’re more than just a fuck. But more importantly - Act like it.

#3 Be patient

Men can smell desperation. And it smells like an easy screwover.

The odds for SDs are so much better than for us babies. So they know its their ball game - any day, any time. They know it. We know it. And they sure damn well know WE know it.

Champagne asked me about my financial expectations. I said 5k a month. I saw him typing, and deleting.. and typing and deleting..

So I said this:

“Hey.. I want you to know I’ve met with others - and even with their generous allowances, I’ve never gone with someone I don’t feel attracted to. And I’m attracted to you. I just usually don’t talk about money this early on in our relationship. But please don’t rush in thinking about it. I want you to be comfortable with me as well. This is my expectations but I want you to be happy in knowing that you’ve selected the right babe for yourself.”

If I bag him and bossy banker - that’s 10k a month for 3/month meetups. Great? Yes.

But if I don’t bag them? I’d move on and find someone else.

This is a marketplace. But don’t be that desperate product on sale that’d settle.

If they’re not meeting your expectations - someone else will. Maybe not today, maybe not this week, maybe not this month.

Look babies. You’re in this for longer than a month, right? Be patient.

Don’t give up your standards, ever, just because you’re greedy and impatient.

The real gold takes time to be found. And you definitely want to be an available sugar baby when that time comes.

So be patient, my babies and all the best!
