Just curious on this subject and I tried to put together some numbers (purely from my point of view)
Ok, these girls arrive and they end up working 2yrs on and need to pay off $15000 AUD.
From my experience, Sydney prices are around $150 a pop (some are more expensive) So say this is roughly the price.
And let's say their pimps get 2/3 of it, while the girl gets 1/3 (I don't really know how they get paid)
So she gets $50 a pop.
2 yrs, 365 x 2 days = 730 days
But let's say out of each month there is 7 days that she is on break, (7 x 12 x 2 =168 days)
730 - 168 = about 560 days
If she gets 1 pop/day, she'd earn 560 x 50 = $28000 which is already enough to pay back the pimp.
If she is averages 3 pops/day, she'd earn $28k x 3 = $84k (before debt)
If REALLY popular and averages 5 pops/day, she'd get $28k x 5 = $140k (before debt)
I dont think they get taxed, so just minus the debt, minus all their expenditures and THEN converting back to her home currency, that is A LOT of money!!! So I'm sure the WGs do know what they are getting into and are willing to risk it.
Just for the discussion, I'm sure I'm no where near the actual figures.
