Curriculum: Learn the Psychology Behind the Power
Most writing about financial domination falls into one of two traps: it treats the dynamic as a punchline, or it sells it as mysticism. Pay Pig Academy takes a third path. Financial domination is a real psychological and relational phenomenon, with real mechanisms behind it — reward and anticipation, arousal and decision-making, shame, identity, consent, and power. This curriculum exists to map those mechanisms honestly, for the people actually living them.
That’s why it’s built as three tracks rather than one. Submission and dominance aren’t separate subjects; they’re two vantage points on the same exchange. The submissive who understands what the dominant is calibrating — and the dominant who understands what the submissive is experiencing — both practice with more clarity and less harm. The Submissive and Dominant tracks teach the dynamic from each side; the Extended Reading essays sit beneath both, supplying the neuroscience, ethics, and clinical research the practical tracks draw on. Read together, they form one coherent account of how financial power exchange actually works.
Every track rests on the same commitments: psychology over performance, consent established with a clear head rather than in the heat of a session, and sustainability over escalation. Whether you’re here to understand your own desires, to build authority you can exercise responsibly, or to think rigorously about why any of this works — start with the path that fits, and follow the others when you’re ready.
