    I find it interesting though that he chooses to hang out on a primarily female forum. Misogonist and masochist huh?

    ^In his defense, there are guys here. And he does say that he visits clubs, so maybe he's looking for tips on taking better advantage of dancers. And I'll stop being mean now.

    Yes vmurphy252, that's one reason. This Forum has made my visits much more enjoyable for me and my friends. And for the dancers too as I tell my friends not to waste time being "nice" to strippers they have no interest in buying dances from... I aim to please in the short run.

    And I've become more tolerant of the annoying wanna dance girls. Although I still don't understand approaching someone who is obviously avoiding eye contact. But like I said in another thread this forum helped me have a great time in Pittsburgh and I'm grateful.

    PS I tell every stripper about this forum and I know some have joined so I'm actually adding females to the forum.

    Is this your way of making up for being a total jerk ALL the time? You send strippers to the forum? Gosh, how decent of you. Let's all fall to our knees and thank you for your kindness!

    Commanderadama, I just don't feel that it's appropriate for you to remain on this forum if you hold us all in such contempt. Since you hate all women why don't you take your ass elsewhere! You shouldn't be on a forum designed to support female dancers.

    Oh, and btw, some women work, bring in a very nice income, take care of their kids AND the housework....are you really so stupid to believe that we are all low-life fucking leeches? I'm wondering if you are actually projecting YOUR faults onto women.

    The economy has impacted me significantly. My overall business is down around 30%. My play money business opportunities more like sub 50%. Life is not fun right now.

    Notice I am back on topic.

    Same here. I have lost close to 3/4 of a mil. in profit thanks to this shitty economy. Everytime I turn around people are holding off on building there customs houses and remodels. Then the jobs you do complete you have a feild day trying to get them to pay there bill. Gotta love paying to build someones house

    Now the million dollar question is, When will we see a rebound in this economy ?

    Actually the million dollar question is, will we see a rebound in the U.S.A.? Because it is now a world-wide economy and while a rebound is 100% assured sans a catastrophe of epic proportions, it is quite possible that large amounts of money will shift to other parts of the world. All it takes is willingness for large groups of people to do more, for less. Well, unless you believe American's are uniquely clever as compared with the rest of the world. I'm kind of doubtful given so much that I've seen.

    You have a very valid point there. America is in deep shit .

    With Obama printing money like he is causing the american dollar to lose its value on a daily basis its highly unlikly the usa will not rebound as fast as other countrys. Seems like all america is doing right now is getting deeper in debt and making our selves weaker .

    I don't think the average american knew what they were doing when they voted in a liberal democrat in a recession.

    I have been very lucky that it has not hit us, but then again we were already at the bottom so we really couldnt go down any further in my state.

    Oddly though i am up around 18% with sales outside of my state. I think that it might have to do with more people shopping prices and it gives us a chance at business we normally would not have gotten.
    Overall my industry has been hit extremely hard by the economy, but that i believe has been offset by a lot of my competition who did not plan for rainy days going out of business. My competition is shrinking with the economy and i have been blessed enough to reap the benefits. I do hope it comes back around as i have many friends across the country that has been devestated. It is extremely sad to see some that have spent their whole lives building a business to see it go to shit in less than a year.

    I can only imagine that some of the younger strippers out there that started a couple of years ago and was making more money than they ever thought they would are now wishing that they would have saved more. I am not saying that all of them spent like crazy, but i remember at that age i went through money like it was nothing.

    I think this nation as a whole needs a good slap in the face with spending and saving and if this doesnt teach a few people those lessons, then we will be here again after this is over.

    obama's not printing the money. the fed is, and it's a bigger problem than the guy in the big chair, who isn't able to make most of the decisions he is blamed for (this holds for bush and clinton, as well).

    i think a lot of strip clubs are going to close or be 'persuaded' to close and i think the ones left will be looking like big fat tax targets to hungry cities, counties and states.

    i think those same clubs will be heavily pressured to convert to models that involve strippers not making their money in (mostly) not-traceable cash, because strippers will also look like nice juicy tax targets as well.

    i think as the economy gets crappier, the sex industry can look to be more and more regulated in a bid to squeeze tax dollars out of it before many of the producers and providers bail.

    I have a (not really that brilliant) theory that the current situation is just another economic pattern. Roughly that as people in a culture experience the benefits of a positive economic wave, they come to expect more for less, and that as a result, ultimately the money will end up moving to where ever people are willing to work harder for less. Until eventually enough money moves and then that new group of people come to expect more for less, and so the pattern repeats.

    That of course is not a happy thought for us, but it is for some people in other parts of the world. For obvious selfish reasons I'd prefer the economy here be healthy, but in the world wide view nothing has really changed. Some people somewhere will, on a large scale, experience an above average lifestyle, while others less so.

    I started dancing at the end of May so I basically started at the worst time but...

    Things have been HORRIBLE for the past two weeks, I'm talking 3 customers who buy more than a couple dances coming in on a Tuesday or Wednesday from 8pm-3am. There have been long periods of it being dead or a few guys coming in who tip a few bucks on stage, string a couple girls along, and then buy maybe one dance or just leave. The weekends have been considerably more dead than before but because so many girls have gotten fed up with the week days the usual rush of "weekend girls" has been less and so it has been easier to make money with less competition (although July 4th SUCKED).

    My first few weeks working I could count on leaving with $100 and was annoyed when I left with less than $200 on a weekday. In the last two weeks I've had numerous nights of leaving with less than $30. Tonight I made $14. I know it's not just my club because I've tried out a couple others and talked to girls working at other clubs and I hear the same things (and my club used to be busy Tues-Sat). I still see some girls getting dances and leaving with $300 or so but they are all doing extras.

    I am grateful to lord that I have not been effected badly by this economy, at least not yet. Economy does effect many of us with its ups and downs but there are ways to protect ourselves even when the economy is not doing well.

    Although I don't go to the club much anymore. The one I do go to has seen a rapid decrease in customers for the past year and its still in business. A few offer specials every night. monday is movie night get a free porn movie, Tuesday two for one special on privates, wednesday is student night (bring in your student ID and get in for three dollars intstead of 20). Thursday is military night get in free with a military ID. then friday and saturday is five dollars to before 5 to get in and every so often on friday or saturdays they have a UFC fights or female mud wrestling, and sundays are get in free. To a point it helps but doesn't bring in the older crowds mostly college kids. Another club has a feature dancer and another club tries to get their old dancers to come back for a week and call them a feature which is weak move. even if they retired from dancing and move on.
