Dear Unrepentant1, Ladies and Gentlemen; I can only speak for my own personal experiences. My first Master/slave relationship (back in the 1980s) I was a military dependent where a parent was the bread winner and deployed and family living overseas; so wasn't really pressed to have a job but, I went on a tour researching Medieval Crimes and Punishment, which also a dual interest for me. When back in the USA, I was employed and earned my own pay check and my slaves earned theirs. In my household, the slaves got an allowance and spending money for special expenses. I took the remaining funds and put it into a high yield percentage savings account with their name as First owner and I was joint. I'm retired now but, I have a pension so, what funds are made and or contributed to the running of the household will be reasonable. Now if we can all get the cost of living to go down. [Smiles] I have lived the lifestyle myself. I am a Dominant woman who doesn't see a slave for just their money support or free labor. I see them as gems and individuals that make my life all the richer for their company, companionship and bringing their talents and abilities to make progress in the pursuit of happiness, furthering knowledge, uplifting our spiritual wealth and our emotional wealth. I do my best to leave someone in a better shape in many respects then when I found them. Like a strong wall, slaves can lean on me, rest against me, depend on me to shield them and invite their efforts to scale up, over and down through life's journey. I stand there with them. I will say that 24/7 is a label to describe as consistant and living together, not weekend M/s relationship and or distant, cyber and or phone D/s relationship. Same house living. As a 'home' in the practice of M/s and or BDSM; there are times where there is sleep and times having to go to work and deal with life. Just like a family with parents and kids, a parent might leave the house and do what they must to earn money and kids do their growing. But, regardless if the parents are outside the house they never give up their title of parent and or in this case Master/Mistress, Dominatrix, nor does the slave. It is private behind a home's walls and its individualized. Just some thoughts. Respectfully submitted for consideration, Lady Hugs
