TELEGRAM -- Feb 23 -- Mark, a 48-year-old investment manager, has been married for two decades and has three children. What his wife doesn't know is that Mark also has three "sugar babies" in their early 20s whom he meets for trysts, and upon whom he lavishes expensive gifts and hard cash; $600 to $1,500 a date. Mark met his paramours on seekingarrangement.com (Founded June '06, 75k members). Founder, Brandon Wade, an M.I.T. graduate says the site pulls in $50k a month. Sugar daddies shell out $15 a month to meet their babies. Sugar babies don't pay a penny. Lawyers argue that these relationships are borderline criminal. "You are not granted legal immunity just because you prostitute yourself on a Web site instead of a street corner," said Robert Post, a professor at Yale Law School.
