Pgh is really cheap to live in. Especially the eastern/southern suburbs/hills, depending on how far you want to go. My friend and I lived in Whitehall for a minute (which I wouldn't recommend-roaches, gunfire) but there are some nicer places out there in the south hills. Shadyside is nice, so is Squirrel Hill. Monroeville and that area is far, but very suburban and safe.
Isn't krchab99's sister on here in Pgh? Maybe she can chime in?




yea, i saw a few in shady side. Monroeville would be the ultimate place i want to end up because its halfway between my bf and pittsburgh. But right now, i'm just gonna take what i can in the area till i can get my money situated...make sure i have a semi steady income. This just sucks to happen the time i'm starting to work a new club. I was already worried enough about how i'm gonna just get started. This club is a whole new deal to me....i never really had to hustle dances





I don't really understand the situation. You've been living where you knew you weren't technically "allowed" to live for two weeks. Did you not realize that eventually you would get discovered and asked to leave? As far as I'm concerned you have already gotten a 2 week head start on saving up the money to find your own place. That should be plenty of time to earn enough money for first and last months rent and deposit on a new place. What have you been doing for two weeks?





^^I think that's how she has $400. I'd hope Pgh stripping economy is better than that, but I don't know.




its a big campus...and i didn't think they were that strict about visitors....and i have been working those 2 weeks...thats how i got the 400...i didn't plan on staying for more than 3 weeks....i thought i would have enough money by then to get my own place....but stripping at these two clubs didn't work out like i hoped and i barely made anything every night i worked there....so if you are trying to be negative and implying that i have been just sitting on my ass doing nothing for two weeks but eating cheetos in my bf's tiny ass dorm room....you are mistaken...i've been working my freakin ass off...thank you
I haven't been in pittsburgh stripping...i've been about an hour away...and its been pretty crappy....i've been making like 50-75 a night.... I had to wait till the 27th to audition at this club in pittsburgh (they only have auditions ONCE a month)....but i'm supposed to be able to make good money there....
if your making only 400 in 2 weeks dancing theres something vastly wrong....on whos end i dont know. i had a friend who danced in p burgh and she was making close to a grand a night and she was a low to no contact girl.


Well she said the clubs she was at were super crappy. Shes at a better one now so hopefully shes doing better.




I wasn't dancing in Pittsburgh....I was dancing in Indiana PA....its an hour away....i had to wait two weeks just to audition at the Pittsburgh club....but i am there now and i think i am going to do much better than at the club in Indiana....i was only making 50-75 a night there...it was a tiny club and most nights, no more than 10 customers came in.....
lordy...i was gonna say, p burgh is got to be better then that.
its sad to see so many threads from girls making less then they could in a regular job dancing. i wont get into the whole if you dont make XXX dollars you shouldnt dance arguement but if you can make more in a regular job then dancing is really sellign you short.
good luck in anycase with your situation.




Hey, I wasn't trying to be negative nor imply anything, babe. I just wondered why you were so broke after a week of stripping. Indiana, PA, though...that's a bitch! No wonder. I hope you rock the next club!







This is a serious situation. What I would do, is take out a cash payday advance. I like cashnetusa.com for whatever it is you need to get a place right now. Add that to your $400 and get a place. Then bust your ass at work to make up the money and the next months rent.

You are going to have enough for your own place within a few days of work.




i'm just weary about that idea because i have no credit. But if i have another night that is atleast as good as last night, i'll be fine. I won't need a loan!!
I hope so, its a holiday tomorrow so i don't know about tomorrow...but i heard thus, fri, and sat nights were good. So thats what i'm lookin forward to the most
dont forget about furnished apartments, they usually have shorter leases then empty ones. then you can not have to worry about furniture and all that right off the bat.
ive slept ona floor for a couple months before, its not fun!




These days I like to count my money. I like to wash it delicately and iron it. Sometimes I dry it with some bounty to make it all nice and cuddly. I love my money... did I say that out loud?

They don't check credit and you don't have to own property. You only have to have a bank account. Yes, it's a better idea to get the money at work, but if you're in a bind and it's an emergency, this is the way I'd go.

This is crazy late, but...
... Indiana?
... don't tell me you're the Mia from the Cove ...
Lyzi told me about you last time I talked to her, if you're who I'm thinking of. Apparently they (or at least she, and probably Amy) called you by my real name because we're both black. *shrugs*
Hated that place. Made decent money, but it was insanely stressful.
I think that's where strippers go to die.
But on topic, I totally know your situation. I went to the Honors College at IUP, and I'm sure you know what a wonderful reputation those kids have. My boyfriend pretended to live on the second floor of Whitmyre for an entire school year, somehow, and never got caught constantly sneaking into my all-female wing after hours. It was SO difficult to keep it under wraps, seriously.
Hope your situation is working out for the best, though!
