Buying a Stripper a Cell Phone

Okay, some may come out and say don't save her or be a white knight or whatever the acronym is, but have any of you ever bought a fav a cell phone? How or what kind of plan/setup did you get her? Was there any agreement in place between you and the dancer?
My initial thoughts were to get like a hotspot with no plan and pay monthly for like 1GB or something and it can rollover if available for one month. So being she already has a cell phone but no service, she could use like a free 2nd number app or Line2 that'll work over wireless. As I think more, I'm thinking a cheap Wal Mart prepay or some other prepay could do the job too.
So if any of that didn't scream PL, I'm truly considering this only because she is a fave, has kids, but no cell phone. She does communicate through Facebook, but I'm not sure on what lengths she has to go through to do so. I know how it is to have to raise kids and although I do split that responsibility with my ex wife, I can only imagine not having a cell phone.

I smell an endless headache situation here, at the very least you will probably have to continuously pay for her service but I would humbly predict even more & greater requests for assistance - IMO it's def the right thing to help people out, but strippers often can't help themselves & pouring money/resources into them is often a bottomless-pit & at the end of the day one has burned thru a whole bunch of $$$ and the stripper is still in the same predicament, hopeless w/o your continued assistance - IMO it's a fool's errand.
For people on the "margins" of society, facebook is about the only consist and reliable why to get hold of them. Mailing addresses and home situations change. Phones change or get shut off. Computers or phones die. But more people can find a computer or someone else's phone SOMEWHERE and log into facebook at least a few times a week. Also people on the margins are more likely to respond to a facebook message/request than an email, IMO.
With that said, I don't have Facebook.
I'm not sure the deal with her baby daddy. They have 2 together from what I understand. I know he recently got out of jail. Not sure how long he was in, but at least over 2 years best I recall since I met her.
I have thought about what if I follow through with this what'll be next. I'm definitely look forward to the replies on this thread. Only once have I gifted something to a stripper and that was straight money which we agreed she'd pay me back, but we know how that ended.
would never do it again...the phone.. lol... date a stripper... yeah.. hahaha.
, just like me then, it's no problem at all.
People feel addicted to the devices when they don't need to be. You just need to plan ahead of time when you are away from a regulat phone. Talking while driving leads to accidents even though many don't seem to care. Personal time is no longer personal time if work expects you to answer 24/7.
I'm likely going to end up with one soon paid by my employer for the most part since they want to be able to contact me probably more than I want.
yeah see if you can write that shit off on your taxes.
no contract - cheap one at walmart - although buying minutes and data will add up over time.
She has 2 kids and is struggling financially right now.
I would not pay for the monthly plan though.
It would only be the second time I have helped a dancer with extra money outside the club.
Leaning towards not doing it, as I doubt I would get any "extra" benefit from it.
So, get whatever is cheapest up-front. It will cost less than trying to figure the same thing out by spending ITC for sure.
There have been stories written here, though, about how the stripper would take the burner phone a customer gave her out of the drawer every week or so to check for sales opportunities and send that once-a-week text to keep him hooked. After all, when a woman really likes you, she will do the little things things like pull the phone you got for her out once a week and text HI BABY REMEMBER THAT TIME YOU SPENT $500 ON ME AND YOU WERE SUCH A GENTLEMAN? :) :) :)
How is the $$$ at the club she works at, is it a dive where custies don't spend, is she able to sell dances - if so then she needs to get her butt in gear & take care of her bills.
Now that some have chimed in, I would like to maybe get her a start, like a prepay deal from Wal Mart. I don't want to have anything that has me doing a monthly payment or whatever for it to operate.
I looked over her Facebook today and seems she's cut baby daddy off. I know many have said don't do it, given the nature of these women we're dealing with. However, haven't lived that life or been down real bad, its hard to imagine not having a cell phone since its like a norm these days.
I had a platoon sergeant when I was in the Army who didn't have a cell phone. Yeah, he hung around the company or was where he needed to be at all times, but he was great in getting info out to us and did an overall great job as a leader in my opinion.
Anyway.
a) she may post one thing in FB w/ the reality being different (i.e. other people trying to help her out or her own family may not want her to be w/ him so she keeps it on the down lo)
b) in situations like this I've seen the baby -daddy come in and out of the baby-mama's life, in fact would not be surprised if she had another kid w/ baby-daddy in the not too distant future
I absolutely can be wrong about all this but I've seen these scenarios b/f
What I post is not to tell you that it absolutely would not work out, just making you aware of what can likely happen that way you'll see it for what it is if it does happen - hope things work out well.
Then a couple weeks later some other PL went and bought her a new smart phone for like $400.
