Need a Hug? Woman Starts Snuggling Business
She charges $60 USD an hour

Had a bad day? A Penfield, NY woman is for hire. Jackie Samuel started her cuddling business, The Snuggery, last month. She now charges customers $60 USD to cuddle with her.

“You feel more calm for days afterward,” the 29-year-old says. “It has numerous health benefits.” Samuel also insists cuddling is not about sex. It’s about relaxation and physical comfort. Her clients must acknowledge there will be no sex allowed.

Samuel only has a few clients as she builds her business. In the meantime, she’s still selling real estate. [WHAM 13]
