I have already posted here a few times about my shitsky situation here in Europe (Portugal)! Don't ever come here, btw! But, for me to go back to the States full-time wouldn't be practical because my SO is here and also, I do like the country. It just sucks to work here. So, would it compensate for me to strip in New Jersey (I chose Jersey because there's tons of direct flights from Lisbon to Newark) for like 2-3 months during the year and then come back here for a few weeks and just fly back and forth? The plane ticket alone is $600 dollars and I'd have to find room and board.
My SO thinks I'm nuts but the thing is that I am sick of being poor. I put myself through 5 god damn years of college, I speak 3 languanges, and I am working my ass off to take home less than 800 dollars a month. I have no money for extras like clothes and I haven't been able to visit friends and family back in the States for a long time. He just doesn't understand the level of frustration that I feel at being dirt poor after so much hard work. I like stripping. I have tried it now in front of a few small audiences for practice (no money though!) And if I could do it to save money, go back to school for a more marketable career, then hell yeah, I wanna do it! But, what if I fly to Jersey and they say, "you've got cellulite and you dance like an ostrich!" Then shit! There goes a $600 plane ticket.
