From Chuck Shepherd's "News of the Weird": "A group of (legal) prostitutes in the Netherlands began a campaign in December to have their occupation officially termed so dangerous and physically challenging that they should be allowed (as soccer players are) to save in tax-free pension funds. They carry out "difficult physical work", their lawyer said, and their careers are likewise short-lived--much better suited for the young. Furthermore, he pointed out, prostitutes are not able, post-career, to earn the money coaching or by endorsements."
I'm convinced.
