    Default Keeping money in sight?

    Hey ladies! Just curious to see where ladies keep their money on them when they work and if you think it helps or hinders you for getting dances. Most of the girls I work with use a small purse or keep cash in their wrist wallets. However, I was noticing on one of my dancing travels that girls in another club kept their money around their wrist or ankle just with a rubber band in plain sight and I was wondering about what clients might think of this. Do they think "Wow, look at that cash, she must have something good going on and other dudes are spending money on her so maybe I will to..." Or might they think "Hmm, looks like she doesn't need my money with all that..." It seemed to me that these girls flashing a bit of cash kept making money, and that guys especially liked putting it into their leg garters, etc ( which isn't as popular here in Toronto as clubs in the US, maybe since we have $1 and $2 coins and not bills) What do you guys think?

    all bills secured with a garter and two rubber bands. placed on my ankle or my wrist. secured on you is best. if you wanna flash some cash just have the top bill be a hundred.

    Yeah I've seen girls keep their money in sight by...

    1) wearing a garter around their thigh-- with the money secured by rubberbands

    2) wearing a garter twisted over their ankle-- with the money secured by rubberbands

    3) carrying a small money purse (lots of girls use the little Coach wristlets, Mine is white (So I can easily see it in the dark) and has an adjustable wrist loop that tightens shut, so I wont ever take it off, I got mine from here:

    Thanks for the input, however I guess the question isn't really about the safest place to keep your money; rather it is about the client's perception of the dancer if he sees that other men have spent money on her, and whether that will influence him to spend money as well. Obviously men like to compete, or at least try what "all the other guys" are trying. Maybe they think" Well if other guys are spending money on her there must be something good going on there!" It seems like a non-verbal way of suggesting that you are worth them spending money on. Or maybe I'm over analyzing and should have been a psychology major! Lol... I am going to try it just to see what happens. Now I've got to find some sexy garters....

    ^Idk, maybe you are reading too much into it?

    I think that for where you keep your money-- whether it's in sight or not, depends on what you feel most comfortable with (having it on a garter verses inside a purse). Personally, the little purse secured around my wrist feels the safest and most comfortable.

    And I think it also depends on the club. All the girls at the club I'm at use purses (It's a gown club) so I think garters on the thigh would almost look tacky in that environment... Unless you're wearing the garter on stage and using it to pull out and get tips in it. But even still the girls at my club just pull the side of their g-string out instead to take tips.

    I think money attracts money so I wear my money on my garter on my thigh with the biggest bill on the outside so everyone can see.

    At my last club, the manager (who danced for longer than I've been alive, so I trust her money-making advice), always advised us to keep our bigger bills more visible so that we could look like we were 'worth' more. And I knew a big top earner who'd routinely bring in a 50 to stick in her garter before the first stage set even began, while all of our garters were pretty much empty, making her seem way more in demand than the other girls from the start.

    I keep my money in a purse. Start flashing cash and girls get jealous fast... they get jealous enough as it is! If you are a big time hustler customers will keep buying from you because they see you going in and out of the private dance area, or because you don't have time to get on the stages... which means you must be good or people wouldn't buy from you that quick. It's a psychology thing for sure, but I don't leave my cash out.

    BTW, a friend of mine got drunk one night and had her money stolen off of her WHILE ON STAGE. $600 gone in minutes. Whoever took it must have taken it off her ankle, and she was so gone that she didn't even notice the person touching her. :-(

    I bring my purse on stage and put it where no one can reach it... against a wall or the middle of the stage if needed.
    Don't you ever sleep?
    Not at night...that's when the stars have rather better things to do. They're coming out, shining, that sort of thing.

    i have never had this happen but i used to keep a hundred on the outside where everyone could see it, then one of the housemoms told me about customers who would routinely slip bills out of a dancer's garter while she was dancing for them.

    now the biggest bill i keep on the outside is a 20 and i always keep it tucked under my shoe (hard to explain but it works awesome)

    ^^^That was great advice britneyireland!!!

    The club I dance at has lockers BUT they're all taken by girls already. So I'm bringing with a medium sized suitcase that has a lock code on it for my sister and I to use. You should try that Juliette.

    So instead of putting every $100 away in our lockers, we're gonna put it in our suitcase.

    I dont keep my money on at all because I dont want to lose it or have it stolen. Plus, I dont want jealosy problems at work. I dont really think that the customers would think much of it eaither way. I have had time where I didnt have time to go put my money up and I will keep it in my hand or in my garter.

    All the girls at my club carry purses - I do too. I think wearing money around the leg would bring a lot of jealousy issues and other problems. I rather keep that in a dark and safe place

    I love that idea of putting it around your finger britneyireland. Then you REALLY can't loose it. Plus I like the idea of it being a cute ring.

    Getting back to LT's original question, I think that the attitude about showing money really varies from club to club. In general, at the gown clubs in midtown Manhattan that I've worked at people tend to be more discrete with their money, the custys and the girls don't really talk about it or do much with it outside of exchanging bills. At parties I've done or in clubs that have more pole dancing (generally in outer boroughs of Manhattan), people love to flash their money. Custys will be real ostentatious with it, throwing it in the air, wanting to "dress you up" in bills. I've even had guys make paper airplanes out of bills and throw them at me while I'm on stage. (Which I actually find really annoying and a little offensive) All us dancers had to carry around these big metal tins just to collect all the 1$ bills. At the Times Square clubs though people will spend more but be more discrete about it. I think it might have more to do with the average income of custys at these different kinds of clubs, the ones who don't have as much to spend want to play up what they do have so they get a lot of 1s and throw them around.

    Personally I think money is sexy so I like it when people want to dress me up or shower me. It makes me more involved.

    Britney, I've got another piece of advice for your video. When I first started dancing I kept money in my locker... and had it stolen. Some clubs issue combo locks so the managers can get in to check the lockers. Other lockers aren't very secure so it's easy for your locker neighbor to break in from the side. If you are going to keep money in your locker put in a small safe/lock box inside your locker. Something like this:

    Don't you ever sleep?
    Not at night...that's when the stars have rather better things to do. They're coming out, shining, that sort of thing.

    The idea of my money being anywhere but in direct contact with my body where I can feel it at all times quite frankly horrifies me. I could not carry a purse for my money. I currently keep it on my ankle with a garter and rubber bands, arranged ones, fives, tens, big bills, then twenties from inside to the outside. I do this because I do think that having a twenty in sight gets me more dances than a smaller bill, but I do not leave my big bills in sight because I don't want the other girls to know how I'm doing. You'll notice a trend here... that trend is thieving bitches! Ultimately I don't think it makes a massive difference in selling dances but if it does, a twenty is good enough to get the impression of value across. What does make a difference is being able to relax because I have my money in my line of sight at all times and am not worried about it going anywhere but to my bank account.

    Annabanana, I would highly recommend NOT putting any money or anything valuable whatsoever anywhere but on your person! I don't keep anything valuable even in my locker. Girls have broken in to them. Never, ever underestimate what another girl will do for money, or even just out of greed and jealousy. Five seconds to observe where you put your money and five seconds with a knife and it'll be gone. Even the best house mom isn't perfect and this stuff happens even in nice gown clubs.

    Yeah, I couldn't ever have my cash anywhere but strapped to my body where I can feel it. I've never been stolen from or had my money tampered with, not to say it doesn't happen to some girls. Even with a lockbox in a locker, I don't think I'd be secure enough leaving that money out of my sight, but to each their own.

    Agreed. I would never leave my money in a suitcase in the dressing room. I hate it when I even have to leave my locked up bag in there when I don't have a locker. I've had make up brushes stolen from a side pouch that doesn't lock, and I've seen girls freaking out because their civvy clothes were stolen.

    I definitely wouldn't put it past some girls to grab a whole suitcase or bag and walk out with it.

    I would never have my money showing... for the second reason. I wouldn't want people thinking I don't need anymore of it, plus its just a reminder that we are there for the money and not for the dudes.

    Everyone in my club keeps their money in a small purse it makes for easy clean up while on stage too; dollar bills can just be shoved into the purse and organizaed later, never count or organize your money in public!

    I carry a purse, a very small evening bag type. I feel like it's kind of the same concept as having someone "make it rain" on your stage. If someone comes to my stage and throws a bunch of money up in the air, the rest of the people at my stage tip WAY less than they would have if that hadn't happened. No offense to any ladies that use the ankle or garter. I've seen girls rubber band their money to their ankles and it just looks kinda silly. You're dancing and being sexy and you have a big wad of cash bouncing around everywhere. Carrying a purse also eliminates your having to go back to the locker and put it away. If you're going to give someone a dance right after you get off stage it's kind of a pain to have to run to your locker.

    Also with having your cash exposed like that, girls are most likely going to see it and if they're on the prowl, they're more likely to watch you and see who you're sitting with. There's nothing more irritating than going to use the restroom and coming back to see your customer being straddled by some chick who saw how much money he was giving you.

    i do the garter around the leg.

    i have known dancers who would bring a 100$ bill in at the beginning of the night to make their garter look fatter. it seemed unnecessary to me.

    if i get a minute i might organize my cash and put big bills on the outside, but its really not a priority.

    ive used purses at some pt, but im just really not a purse girl. i think its regional, i started dancing in a city where everyone used garters so thats what i did. i have worked in cities where i was the only girl who used a garter instead of a purse, but fuck it, im not changing how i carry my money to fit in with the locals.

    also ive never had a problem with money being jacked. when the money is around my leg it is like an extension of my body, if someone were to take a swipe at it i would be way more aware than if they took a swipe at a purse.
    The best thing i have heard in a strip club to date:
    customer: we should get married right now! we should get a shotgun marriage!
    me: uhh... i think you are misunderstanding what a shotgun marriage means. A shotgun marriage means you knock me up and my daddy shows up at your door with a gun and forces you to marry me and raise the baby. You mean elope.
    customer: hmm... nah actually i will take the shotgun marriage. At least then we would be having sex.
