The term 'sugar daddy' is older even than as its protagonist but the romantic and financial dynamics between an old man and his arm candy are rarely discussed openly.
Now though, 63-year-old Tommy and his 'sugar baby', Monte have spilled the beans on the ins and outs of their arrangement (no pun intended).
Tommy and Monte, 21, have been 'sugar dating' for two years during which time he has paid for her college tuition and bought her expensive clothes, while she has provided him with company and sexual favours.

Sweet treat: Tommy, 63, and Monte, 21, are a sugar daddy and 'sugar baby' whose relationship is based on companionship and sex in exchange for money

Talk about perks: Tommy checks out the newly enhanced assets of his 'companion' that he paid for along with her college tuition and clothes
Monte, however, isn't Tommy's only girlfriend of this variety; he has six others, all of whom enjoy the same benefits in exchange for providing him with what he refers to as 'companionship'.
After finding Monte on SeekingArrangement.com, Tommy now spends about $5,000 a month on her alone which, with an estimated $150,000 annual budget for his 'babies', is perhaps an indicator of how happy he is with the lithe brunette.
In an interview with ABC, he compared walking into a room with Monte to pulling up in a really nice car.
'There are sugar babies on different levels,' he explained. 'You know, you've got your Walmart sugar babies and you've got your Neiman Marcus sugar babies and it's which ones you want to shop at.'
For her part, the young student sees an unmissable opportunity to finish college debt-free while being treated to all the perks a girls loves such as free clothes and of course, a breast enhancement.

Monte, who would only be filmed in profile, recalled the deal they brokered: 'He's like, "I could help you get through school easy and you just travel with me, have fun, be around me and just keep me company," and I said, "sure! You're going to pay for my school?"'
Plus, she said, with Tommy's life experience and social smarts, she is fast becoming a more sophisticated and worldly woman than before she met him.
'[He] taught me how to golf, cook, be a classy woman,' she explained. 'He's just transformed me back to something I've always wanted to become.'
Though Tommy admitted that without the promise of sex, he wouldn't invite Monte to spend time with him or give her any money, both insist their relationship is not prostitution.
'It is what it is,' responded Monte. 'We all mature and I know I'm gonna be old one day and I hope I get lovin' too.'
'I've got my rent paid, I just got some brand new boobs... Life's great!'
Tommy's perspective was slightly different: 'If we're talking about money exchanged for sex, I don't see that this way. It's just not "wham, bam, thank you, ma'am."'
And in what could have been taken as a stab at his three ex-wives, he added: 'You know, you pay somehow somewhere for sex no matter what it is. They say wives do it for refrigerators.'
A retired IT executive, Tommy had two adult children before he opted for this 'sugar dating' arrangement where romance barely plucks the string of a fiddle to sex.
But the deal has its emotional toll on Monte who does sometimes worry about the implications of being a 'kept' woman.
'Sometimes it gets to me to know that he is my only way of income and that makes me feel like you know, I'm not really doing anything,' she confessed.Â

A pro: Olympia is 24 and has been 'sugar dating' since she was 19 to pay for broadcasting college and more

Multitasking: Olympia meets one of her sugar daddies moments before she gets on a flight to spend a weekend with another
For 24-year-old Olympia, who has been 'sugar dating' since she was 19, the only downside is loneliness.
'It does get lonely for me because that person can't always be there for me when I need them to be,' she said, though to which of her multiple sugar daddies she was referring, was unclear.
Meanwhile the 'college baby' pays 100per cent of her broadcasting school tuition in Denver from the money she gets given by her Secret Arrangement companions.
And when she's really lucky, like when she meets up with Mormon, Kenny, she doesn't even have to sleep with them for the pay-off.Â
'I've got my rent paid for up to a year,' she gushed. 'All the cars I've had, have been paid for by sugar daddies. I've gotten to go to the Caribbean.
'I've gotten to travel all across the nation. I just got some brand new boobs. Life's great.'

She is crazy to be missing the most romantic time of her life to work for this codger. Falling in love at 21 with an appropriate young man near her own age and making a go of it with him won't happen with this yuck leering around and probably monitoring her every move. Having to pay his chattel to suffer him in bed must be quite the rewarding experience for the man.

Sad and soulless, all focused on money and material goods. What happens in the future when these girls grow up a bit and want a proper relationship - are they going to tell their prospective partners about these arrangements? Depressing to hear the men's jaded and cynical attitudes too...my husband and I have an equal relationship - in fact I earn more than him at the moment - we go 50/50 into everything financially, so he's certainly not paying for anything! We're happy and in love, and personally I find sex is only fulfilling in a meaningful relationship - it can be very boring otherwise, certainly after the first few times. I don't know whether that's also true for men, but I don't truly think the genders are all that different...we all want to feel loved, ultimately.

In my experience, women are quite unaware of how much men spend dating them. I am here to inform you - it is a lot. I recently had a girlfriend from out of town come visit me for the weekend. We didn't do anything exceptional - just had a nice time - dinner, dancing, drinks and a show. I dropped almost $1,000. She acted like it was painful to pay the valet parker one night when I was short on paper currency. She actually seemed a bit peeved on the way home. It was in that moment I decided this would be the last time I took her out. A sense of entitlement is so unsexy. I'm not complaining about spending the money. My issue is with the idea that while women want to be men's equals in society there is one area where they definitely DO NOT want equality - picking up the check. It's all good ladies - just don't take it for granted. Men enjoy being generous unless it is expected - then we feel like we are just filling up your dance card.

This arrangement is better than today;s marraige!You get sex, company and when you get bored, you can just part ways. In marriage, starting from self respect you lose everything. UK men, take note! This is better than marriage

This kind of arrangement has always gone on.

steverino, Annapolis - agree 100%. Women in the US and UK really do have it made. Frankly marriage isn't such a great deal for men these days - we pay for most things, the sex becomes much less in quantity and quality (if anecdotal evidence is anything to do by) after that ring is safely on her finger, then once we've bought the house and given her the children we get taken to the cleaners by divorce. So guys (and I speak also as a marriage prep counsellor) I don't say don't get married - just be pretty careful about who you do marry, and for heavens sake make sure you actually LIKE the lady in question.
