From the time I started dancing, I could hear the clock ticking; the average dancer retires at 28. I'm 22, which gives me 6 years until statistics say my career will be over. Now, don't get me wrong...I've seen some drop dead beauties in the industry, who surprised me when they revealed themselves as middle aged. But, the point is, I want to have a foundation set up, and that's why I'm creating this post.
I have a baby face; most people guess my age as around 15-17 outside of work. Yeah, seriously...and the big tattoo on my arm doesn't even give them a hint.So I could probably keep a somewhat youthful appearance well into my 30's, especially since I take pretty good care of myself. But what will happen after that?
I make a point to NOT live beyond my means. I'm all about saving, being smart and putting my money to good use. Yes, I COULD go buy a fancy sports car, or live in a luxury suite, or have a lot of plastic surgery....but those things are temporary, and if I just invest into something worthwhile, I could have a very comfortable lifestyle after I retire. My point is, I'm trying to figure out my path after dancing is done, and wondered if any retired ladies have any advice. I would like to look into putting money into mutual funds, but mainly I want to base a future career off of the cash I'm pulling now. I'm a writer, and plan to use this to fund self publishing. I've also considered managing a club or other adult related industry. Any ideas?
