NEW YORK (CNNMoney) The women who work at Moonlite Bunny Ranch Brothel may have unconventional jobs, but in one sense they're just like the rest of America's young adults: They've got student loans to pay off.
Owner Dennis Hof has more than 500 women working for him at his (legal) brothels in Nevada -- Bunny Ranch is just one of them. And he estimates that about 18% of them have college debt.
He said student loans come up "every day in the interview process," and he's seen more and more college students applying to work for him.
So Hof said he'd start matching payments the prostitutes make toward their student loans over the next two months. He's already helped a few workers he employs pay down their debt.
