The different prostitutes at the agency had different prices with a range 
of something like $1000/hr to $5500/hr.  I think Spitzer was caught with 
one who charged $3000/hr and he paid her $4300 which might have included 
travel and tip or maybe he spent 1 hr 20 mins with her.

If you think about it, probably the major reason why men have evolved to 
strive for power is that having power gave access to females, but today a 
powerful man is expected to have sex only with his 50-year-old wife or not 
at all.  No wonder that they "slip up" and fall into extra-marital affairs 
or prostitution.  I don't see it as hard to explain.  The thing that is 
hard to explain is why we have developed a culture that stops powerful men 
from having multiple sex partners.  Why is that?  It doesn't work that way 
in a lot of other places, like Saudi Arabia -- Osama Bin Laden was one of 
something like 51 children of his father.
