I've been a hobbyist for more yrs than I'd care to admit and have spent more money than I could begin to calculate. That said I have a few rules 1) The provider must pass the the smell test 2) I never DFK or LFK 3) I haven't had uncovered intercourse since the 1980s with a pro but I do love a bbbj 4) I do DATY/O but I alway use mouthwash ASAP and I keep a bottle of hydrogen peroxide in the car and always use it. I have never had an STD and even though I don't play as much as I used to (age) I still abide by those rules. They aren't fool proof but so far "I've dodge the bullet"
