the round of money inside the BR is not enough to justify Burke's risksThat'd be a private college which I get the impression B&R is meant to be.
I think the whole fraudulent scholarship system goes like this:
Now I don't think that 40K per year per girl is being made in this case. It's not like a brothel where the girls are on their backs 8 hours a day, and while these rich associates of Burkes (the likes that come to prep parties) may pay premium for some hot college tail, my guess is the scholarships are unfunded and Quinn and Burke are pocketing the proceeds.
- Burke forges scholarships for the HOTs who put out to him and his associates.
- Burke would be getting money from his associates who are using the HOTs at various functions.
- Either the money that Burke's associates are paying is covering each girl's tuition, or Burke is not even injecting money back into the scholarships, in which case he is stealing from the college by giving out unfunded scholarships which are somehow slipping through the cracks of college's accounting system.
- There are kickbacks to Quinn for this endeavor, making it worth her risk (afforded by Burke's associates).
- There's also simple cash transactions for the glory holes around the campus. (Small fry cash going straight to Quinn)
- And some larger campus transactions - MC had to dip into his tuition money to pay for the Quinn/Riona/mc threesome (money also going direct to Quinn) - that sounded like a rare offer, it also made the MC sound like a total sleaze spending such a chunk of cash for sex when he was getting it for free all over the place... I didn't say it wasn't worth it.
- Quinn may have to provide a cut from the money she directly receives back to Burke.
- For Burke to be doing all of this, risking his reputation (outside his circle of sleazy associates), his career and his marriage (Jade is already angry he's had some affairs with students, if she knew he was involved in a prostitute ring I get the feeling that'd be the last straw), he must be getting more out of it than just sampling the goods, he's probably keeping a significant portion of the money the racket is receiving. And if money is his objective, it means the Burke's can't be all that well off if they need to turn to a prostitution racket to subsidize their lifestyle.
the girls in the restaurant are few, an uninhibited one like Camilla is still limited to glory holes, it is not credible that they earn a lot.
so there must be something else. but to think that Burke uses them as a gift / entertainment for other unscrupulous rich people is a huge injection of drama and dark to the story.
for now the restaurant has been shown to us as a fun for both girls and customers (apart from Mona with Burke), this further step would break down any hypocrisy. the girls in the restaurant would be nothing more than prostitutes.
it's usually drugs, the most profitable deal, but if you look at Quinn's management it doesn't seem that way
we'll see
