A woman who works as a 'financial dominatrix' has told of how she is sent expensive gifts and thousands of dollars for doing nothing by men who simply have a 'money-spending fetish'.
Daisy Ducati, a 25-year-old porn star from San Francisco, California, is a professional dominatrix who specializes in 'fin domming', which involves having financial control over a client.
Describing herself online as a 'professional succubus', Daisy recently revealed just what goes into her strange - and lucrative - career in an article for Cosmopolitan.com.
'Right now, I've been doing so much porn that only about 30 percent of my income is from fin domming,' she writes. 'But I do know people who live entirely off of fin domming. It's possible, but it's a lot of work.'
Daisy first found her way into fin domming while she was working as a stripper - a vocation that she sees as 'the ultimate in financial domination' because 'you're literally giving them nothing'.
As a stripper, she made it clear that if clients wanted her attention, they would have to open their wallets. And what she found was that many men wouldn't even need her time in the champagne room or anything else, they would just give her money because 'you exist and you're pretty'.
The need for some of these men to walk in a spoil pretty women is a fetish in itself, according to Daisy, and soon enough she was making a career out of it.
Daisy claims that nine out of ten of her clients have 'a money-spending fetish', which mostly involves them spending money on gifts or sending her cash for no reason at all.
'A lot of the fin dom clients, I don't even meet up with them, they just send me cash online,' she says. 'Some of them are completely anonymous. It depends on the person and their particular fetish with money.'
Daisy, who was previously a fashion model and also has a bachelor's degree in communications, is currently juggling between four and five regular clients at a time with a widely-varying income.
'Sometimes it's just as simple as a gift, like they'll send me shoes,' she explains. 'Sometimes they send me a couple hundred dollars, sometimes a couple thousand.'
Rather than fulfilling some manner of fantasy like regular dominatrix work involves, fin domming simply involves accepting money with the intention of the client being to make the dominatrix happy.
'So it's not necessarily as even of an exchange,' she says. 'They're not buying anything - they're just giving you the money because they want to give it to you and you want it.'
Some of the clients don't even want acknowledgement for their gift-giving and are, in fact, looking to be 'used and abused', while others need their domme to be grateful and praise them. Some buy her expensive outfits while looking for nothing in return but to see her wear them.
Before taking on a client, she always first evaluates their financial situation. What is their salary? Do they have dependents? Would they rather send cash or gifts?
According to Daisy, the key to success in the industry is confidence.
'It's not just about asking, but about expecting to receive, and also not pandering to the people who are potentially going to give you money,' she says.
'They know if I give any one person attention, it's special. Even if I'm yelling at them, it's still special that I paid attention to them at all.'
