A time of austerity

Proof positive that austere times are upon us:

According to a new survey by Prince & Assoc., more than 80% of multimillionaires who had extra-marital lovers planned to cut back on their gifts and allowances. Still, only 12% of the multimillionaire cheaters said they plan to give up on their lovers altogether for financial reasons.

Of course this doesn't cover quants, who are by and large too poor to afford a mistress (maybe can't even afford a high-class call girl).
 
What about the ones who are mistresses?
I can hear the escort servicer now: "I'm sorry, sir, I thought you said you wanted a little quant ... I distinctly remember you requesting modeling experience."
