“Every man/woman loves what he/she is good at” Thomas Shadwell
Many people cannot wait to retire. Not Milly Cooper.
According to Mail Online (a British publication), Milly worked as an escort girl since the beginning of World War II, and at 96 she is still at it.
At 27, she married a wealthy American and moved from London to Las Vegas.
Her husband died in action in 1945 leaving her with a baby daughter.
Milly who was then working as a showgirl went back to the lucrative high-class escort business.
She eventually graduated to Madam, handling bookings for ten girls.
She continued in this line of work until she married her second husband in 1955.
When he died, she kept working in the same business.
In 1979, probably bored of being on the sidelines, Milly reenlisted in the personal sex service after nearly a 25-year hiatus. And she has continued as an escort ever since.
According to Mail Online, Milly now 96, is still earning £50,000 pounds a year from her sex services.
She currently sees two clients a week, earning up to £800 each time.
The only thing I can say is WOW!
This woman must be extremely talented and I have always admired talented overachievers.
And unlike some professions age does not seem to be a handicap.
Older women are more sexually experienced and often more engaging than younger ones.
Many people greatly value practical knowledge and Milly has plenty of it.
By her own estimate she bedded 3,500 men, ranging in age from 29 to 92.
And she has standards.
She told a magazine: “Nowadays, the girls have vast boobs and skinny bodies and parade around half-naked.
In my day, we would call those girls trollops. The industry’s become mucky.
At least I am maintaining standards. I always dress elegantly and my clients are gentlemen.”
Atta girl Milly!
I am in awe of her career and she is living proof that you never have to stop doing what you are good at, especially when your work is stimulating and well remunerated.
