How ‘enterprising’ siblings make a quick buck

Go-getting Performer (GP) thought the only way to get his big break in Tinseltown was to show some skin and more. But while GP did make some heads turn after daring and baring his all in a trashy exploitative flick, he soon found himself grasping at straws and out of work again.

Given GP’s current cash-strapped state, it didn’t come as a surprise to Rushes Mole (RM) when he was told that GP’s pay-for-play services were being peddled by a seasoned pimp who, upon inquiry, disclosed that he could broker a five-figure deal between GP and anyone with enough moolah to burn.

But as RM aptly noted, it’s a situation that feels more sad than salacious because he knows that GP’s brother, Gorgeous Mesmerizer (GM), also turned some tricks before he stumbled into some measure of fame.

In GM’s case, though, it was his very resourceful pals who helped him make a quick buck from rich gay patrons who were eager to spend intimate time with the financially needy GM. Yes, it sure looks like this “enterprising mind-set” runs in the family. Tsk.
