For me, beeing a courtesan is a temporary thing, although I can not put an exact date when I want to stop. It's a very good way to learn about people - what makes them happy and sad. I have also changed my approach to wealth: I get to see wealthy people and they face the same challenges as everyone else. It makes me more philosophical. Thinking you have reached everything, you may be locked into an unhappy marriage or not able to find a woman to share your life with. It actually becomes harder to date - you don't know who's genuinely looking for love and who's looking at your money. For lots of young, successful men, wealth above a certain level can be a barrier to a good relationship.
