So what you’re saying is, I just need to have sex with one monk per year, blackmail them at a discount rate so they don’t go to the cops, and then vacation the rest of the year!
Or become a monk, have a bunch of sex, and pay off the occasional blackmail out of the donation funds. I mean, it seems like monks have a great life except for the celibacy thing, so if you take that off the table, maybe it’s not a bad deal.
Ah yes, a life of rigid control and mandatory conformity. A great life, indeed. /s
I was being a little factitious, though honestly I don’t know what a tibetan monk does day to day. I had an uncle who was a Trappist monk a bunch of years ago, but that’s a different thing. I certainly didn’t have a bunch of illicit sex in my mental image of them.
Solid retirement plan, I should put it in practice
