I have spoken to many young and foolish who have done just this- thrown their careers away for submission. They might have an odd job here and there, but they dont get anywhere because they keep relocating as live in subs/slaves. They do not finish college or develop a good job history. Well, it wasn't much of a life that they gave up anyway was it?
If you have no self value or self worth you are more likely to toss it away without much consideration. I'd say this is an example of blaming someone else for taking a path which most likely would result in failure. What a great crutch it is to point to a cause other than yourself for failure.
What happened with the judgment of these career minded individuals? Why it is assumed that the same poor judgment they used to pick the wrong or bad exploiting partner wouldn't apply to their career or educational choices. Does judging and evaluating the potential of a relationship and its future use a different skill set? People are consistent as are their irrational choices The difference is, in a relationship, you have the luxury of being able to point to someone else as the cause of your failure to 'project out' the consequences of your decision.

What happens if the master dies tomorrow? Is life insurance a self fullfilling prophecy for death? Or is it caring for your loved ones? Don't know leather, I guess if you can require a dollar amount of coverage as a condition of your service.
Let's see, before you said "put twenty grand in the bank as a safety net BEFORE taking the slave on". So for you, $20,000 is the value you place on submission. Now for me, having that position would disqualify you from consideration. However, taking a completely pragmatic approach; putting $20k in the bank for slave providing life-long 24/7 sexual access, housecleaning, cooking, and social interaction is a bargain! Hell, I had to add a few zeros to that number to get RID of a wife. As far as the life insurance, that's a bigger bargain. $100k would only cost a man of my age $356/year! At 25 it would be less than $100/year.
Whose the "fool" leather, a person happy and confident in a relationship or one measuring their success by the amount of cash on hand, or the life insurance they have on their partner? We all have our own personal value system. Just make sure that your's and your partner's are compatible and you can look forward to spending the rest of your life hoping for that "best case" scenario - they die before you.
