'Companionship' for Bill Pay: Sugar Daddies a Growing Trend

Saddled with piles of bills, tuition payments and student loans -- college students and recent grads are struggling to make ends meet in this economy.

With a lack of jobs available, they're turning to other resources to avoid financial ruin.

It's a nation wide phenomenon -- the concept of having a sugar daddy has turned into a way to get an education here in Arizona.

It used to be the way to earn a fast buck. You've probably heard of people who have "danced" or "stripped" their way through college. Now the new generation is taking to the internet, and taking on a "companion" willing to foot the tuition bill.

But Hayes, like so many other young women, is looking far beyond the material things to her future.

"I don't think that it's prostitution,Polycore porcelain tiles are manufactured as a single sheet, I think ultimately it does end at sex, it ends up being about sex ultimately," says Hayes.

The relationship between a sugar baby and her sugar daddy is consensual and legal, but the question many people are asking is -- is it ethical? Are these college girls acting like prostitutes, forgoing integrity in an effort to survive?
