00:01

- So, by the time I finished college,

00:04

I'm going to be tens of thousands of dollars in debt.

00:07

So, I have a plan to avoid that.

00:10

Have you ever heard of a sugar baby.

00:13

(laughs)

00:14

- A sugar baby?

00:14

- Don't laugh.

00:16

There are women who find men

00:18

to pay their bills and buy them things.

00:21

You just have to go on dates and hang out with them.

00:27

- [Narrator] In the United States,

00:28

student debt is close to topping $1.7 trillion.

00:33

With more than 44 million Americans

00:36

living with student debt.

00:38

The topic became a big part of the democratic primaries.

00:42

- We all gotta cancel all student debt in this country.

00:46

(applauds)

00:47

- [Narrator] And student debt has prompted some

00:49

to take unconventional measures.

00:51

- The average sugar baby receives about $3,000

00:54

in monthly allowances.

00:55

- [Narrator] Sugar babies are even the subject of rom-coms.

00:58

Like this one called "The New Romantic."

01:02

- I have made $67,000 in gifts.

01:05

Am I a prostitute?

01:08

No. A gold Digger.

01:09

Maybe. A sugar baby.

01:13

- I don't know if that's a good idea Scarlett.

01:15

- It's good money.

01:17

- [Narrator] You overhear a young woman

01:19

laying out the controversial plan she has

01:22

to help secure her future.

01:24

- Otherwise I might have to drop out.

01:26

So, sometimes you just gotta do what you gotta do

01:29

for some extra money.

01:31

- [Narrator] What would you do?

01:33

It's lunchtime at the Jefferson Diner

01:36

and this father is out with his teenage son.

01:40

- Look, I know that this is like a scary thing,

01:43

but it mean a lot for me.

01:46

- Even scarier than the idea of you being a sugar baby.

01:49

- [Narrator] They're listening as our co-ed

01:51

lays out her plan to pay for her education.

01:54

- I don't have any job. I don't have any income.

01:57

I need this. I have to do this.

01:58

And it would mean a lot for me

02:00

if he would just support my decision.

02:02

- [Narrator] He stays quiet throughout his meal,

02:05

but on his way out...

02:07

- You really need to re-examine your life choices.

02:10

Seriously, that's not viable.

02:13

- [Narrator] We catch up with him.

02:15

- I have a real issue with it.

02:16

I'm a father that has three daughters.

02:18

I'm dumbfounded in this day and age

02:20

that a woman would allow that.

02:22

You're a woman.

02:23

There's more empowerment for you,

02:25

especially in the workforce.

02:28

So, use your brains.

02:30

- [Narrator] We're rolling again.

02:31

And now Scarlet storms away.

02:34

And this young woman joins the conversation.

02:37

- I've known a few people who have done that.

02:39

It's just Like paid company.

02:40

- If you needed the money for tuition, would you do it?

02:44

- If you needed money to pay your tuition though,

02:46

would you do it?

02:47

- I couldn't do it, but like, I don't know.

02:50

I guess to each their own in a way.

02:52

I personally feel, like, for myself,

02:56

I couldn't judge a friend doing that,

02:57

but I would express that, like,

02:58

I am concerned that I want her to, like,

03:01

text me her location,

03:02

you know, like, tell me to need the person she's with,

03:05

like, keep me update and stuff.

03:06

- Wow. Pretty interesting.

03:07

- Like, at least, have the comfort

03:09

of knowing she's doing it, like,

03:10

in a safe way where she wouldn't get hurt.

03:13

- [Narrator] Safety is also a core concern

03:16

for these parents.

03:17

- Our daughter is 38 and the times have changed a lot,

03:21

but I don't know.

03:23

It's frightening.

03:24

- It sounds like prostitution to me.

03:26

- And sometimes if your employer finds out

03:28

what you did before,

03:31

that could be the end of your career.

03:34

- [Narrator] Next, we meet this woman

03:36

out with her girlfriends.

03:38

- The Scarlet, you are selling your body

03:40

to pay for your tuition.

03:42

That's weird.

03:44

- Go, girl. Go, girl.

03:46

- [Narrator] And she surprises us with her take.

03:49

- She's trying to become a sugar baby.

03:51

- I got what you're saying.

03:52

I have heard of that.

03:54

Because there are men who are wealthy

03:55

and just want a companion.

03:56

They just want someone to go out to dinner with.

03:58

Some, listen, don't get me wrong.

03:59

She's probably gonna get propositioned, that's her choice.

04:02

But there are people that just want

04:05

to take care of somebody.

04:06

I don't see anything wrong with that

04:08

as long as you know what your limitations are.

04:10

You can even have a contract written up, if you want.

04:12

I've seen that done, too.

04:13

- What if they want sex?

04:14

- But what if they do want sex?

04:16

- That's when she says, "The contract says no."

04:18

And then you got to look for somebody else.

04:19

Or you charge them another $10,000. That's your choice.

04:21

- I'm surprised you're supporting it.

04:24

Thank you, thank you guys.

04:26

- Listen, she's not trying to raise money to go on a cruise.

04:27

She's trying to raise money

04:28

so she can give herself an education

04:29

and a good start in life.

04:30

- [Narrator] But do her friends agree?

04:33

- What do you guys think?

04:35

- How old are you?

04:36

- 19.

04:39

- If we could have done online over again,

04:41

I would have done that in a heartbeat.

04:42

- No. I don't know. - In a freaking heartbeat.

04:44

I would've done that in a heartbeat.

04:45

- Be careful.

04:47

- This is pretty amazing. Huh?

04:49

She's uneasy about Scarlet's plan.

04:52

But she has another idea that most people would find

04:56

out of the ordinary.

04:57

- Honestly, you know what I think we should do

05:00

instead of doing that?

05:01

Go to a strip club. Dance.

05:04

- Yeah.

05:06

- More safer.

05:07

- You think?

05:08

- Yeah, because they have people around you.

05:11

- Should I tell my parents?

05:12

- If you're do that, yes.

05:14

- I don't know why.

05:14

- What if something happens?

05:16

- If she's going to the other route...

05:18

- Parents should know.

05:19

- If I were you, instead of the parents,

05:20

I would like a friend that you could trust.

05:22

- Hello ladies, how are you?

05:24

(Beeping)

05:25

I'm John Quinones.

05:26

- Oh, my God. How are you?

05:27

- Good. Good to meet you.

05:29

- Oh my God.

05:30

(laughs)

05:32

- Listen, you know what? It is what it is.

05:33

There are legitimate people out there

05:35

that just are looking for companions.

05:37

Do you have to be careful? Absolutely.

05:39

- What did you think?

05:40

- I was afraid for her.

05:41

- Would you do it?

05:44

- No, I wouldn't do it.

05:48

- What's the moral of the story here.

05:50

- The moral of the story is

05:52

there's a lot of ways to make money

05:53

to help people indirectly and directly,

05:56

as long as you're careful, safe and smart.

05:59

- All right, let's go.

06:00

We're rolling one last time.

06:02

- Scarlett, do you wanna tell them

06:04

what you were thinking about doing instead?

06:06

- No, I don't.

06:07

- What was you think about doing instead?

06:09

- It's basically, she's tryna like do the sugar thing.

06:13

- [Narrator] And this diner doesn't think

06:14

Scarlet's sugar baby plan is all that sweet.

06:18

- You may think you doing something

06:20

and it goes towards tuition,

06:22

95% of the people that do this,

06:24

you should guess what they never do.

06:25

Spend spending money on tuition.

06:28

Because the money starts to getting good

06:30

and they think they have,

06:32

they spend it elsewhere and they live in this limelight.

06:35

- Great, this is good. This is really good.

06:38

So, he tries to offer her some alternatives.

06:41

- But as a career counselor for 15 years, I tell you this,

06:43

there's plenty of ways out there to pay.

06:46

You get all kinds of scholarships opportunities out there.

06:49

You get all kinds of grants out there.

06:51

You can come out of school debt free.

06:53

- See, it's not just me that thinks about that.

06:56

(soft music)

07:03

- [Narrator] But he's not done yet.

07:05

- Slide over.

07:06

- [Narrator] He joins our actors at their table

07:08

with just one more bit of advice.

07:11

- My whole motto to all my kids have always been this:

07:14

If you go out in life and do something,

07:16

ask yourself this question,

07:19

what would I do if my daddy was here?

07:21

Don't take a quick buck because a quick buck,

07:24

every dollar that you have today, nine times out of 10,

07:26

that dollar spent before you put it in your pocket or purse.

07:29

- [Narrator] Time to say hello.

07:31

- Somebody coming in.

07:32

- How are you doing my man?

07:33

- Oh, oh.

07:34

- I'm John Quinones.

07:35

- I know this face.

07:36

(laughs)

07:38

- Why was it so important that you say something?

07:40

- It's important to know

07:41

that you don't have to do all these things

07:43

to get where you want to get in life?

07:44

My advice to her is to think about what to do

07:46

before you do it,

07:47

'cause you can have everlasting consequences.

07:50

(soft music)
