If money was not an object, would you ever visit a companion? Why or why not?

You see this necklace here? You listen to anything I said to your question ‘bout bein’ attached to stuff?

Supposin’ I wasn’t a married woman, I wouldn’t do it anyway even if I had the money. Guess I like my sex and that sorta stuff to be real. Payin’ for it cheapens the whole thing, whether you’re talkin’ ‘bout bein’ with a companion or with a common whore. It’s fake and I don’t like fake. Wash and I feel the same way on this – we talked about it. It’s come up seein’ as how we got a companion on board our ship.

'Course, it ain’t like I’ve ever needed to pay for it and couldn’t find someone on my own merits.
