4 Professional Snuggler
Meet Jackie Samuel. She’s a professional snuggler. According to her website thesnuggery.org, Samuel charges $60 an hour for “private snuggling sessions” at her home in Rochester, New York. No sex, just cuddles.
“This is not about sex and I’m really straight forward about that,” said the 29-year-old. Samuel’s mission, according to her website, is to “make the world a gentler place, one snuggle at a time.”
It also helps pay for her studies and provide for her young son. Also, clearly there are a lot of people in need of a cuddle. Samuel makes as much as $260 a day and cuddles with up to 30 men a week.
Samuel, who started her business earlier this year, has strict rules. She only snuggles in her house and clients are not allowed to touch “any parts of her body which are covered by underwear, which she wears under her pyjamas.”
So, who pays for cuddles? Samuel said pensioners, war veterans and people “between relationships” are among her clients.
