Say you're a breh up massively (eg worth $100s of millions or billions). You don't believe in tricking or sponsoring, but you give the girls you're hooking up with (eg dimepieces, IG models, etc) a $250K lump sum on their birthdays as a nice gift and some sort of compensation for them signing an NDA. You're also within 10 years age difference of them and you've developed a reputation for giving generous birthday gifts. Would you consider this tricking? My boys and I were debating it and we don't think so.

It's tricking if you haven't smashed or had to use your wealth to lure her into your bed. If she's already part of your 'roster' or you and her been together, as in some semblance of a couple, then you making her feel 'appreciated', simple. Not saying she wouldn't leave if for some reason you went bankrupt or stopped doling out them sort of trinkets on the regular, but you both should be grown enough to know the business while accepting that money is the reason both of y'all linked in the first place.
Now even with her on your arm, it could turn into 'tricking' if you were pressured into giving her an allowance or access to an account you made for her filled with Scrooge mcDuck levels of money so that she could 'treat herself' without you and your financial advisors input whenever she likes, 'cause as the man, heck, as the BREADWINNER she gotta know that she ain't wealthy; She just adjacent to that shyt. If she wants her own bread to ball without question, start a business/product/podcast and manage that.
