Human: Do escorts or prostitutes make more money nowadays? Assistant: 
Sex work is illegal in the United States, so there is no requirement for reporting earnings in this industry. Estimates do indicate that the average sex worker earns between $30,000 and $50,000 per year. Income varies greatly based on many factors, including location, clientele, experience, and specialties. In some areas of the country, sex workers make significantly less than this average.
