    Travel How ya doin' Vegas?

    Hey there!

    So I am making my way west and considering a short term (4 months-1 year) move to Vegas from Austin, Texas.


    The industry has been HORRIBLE here. It has finally just about died, so I'm looking for a change of pace.


    Anyone have some CURRENT numbers girls are pulling? I worked at lil' darlings back in 2009 and was pulling about 3-500 a night...on a good night 700 or so...(and this was good clean dancing, people...) Can anyone vouch to say this has changed or stayed the same? I do plan on working at the same club. I absolutely loved it there.


    Thanks for any insight!

    How depressing that the Austin club scene is dead. It's been a while since I lived there, but I liked it a lot. I've been hearing horror stories about Vegas too, but I wouldn't know.

    It's been slower here the lasr two years or so, though there was at least sort of a Season this year, unlike the last two years. Season a few years ago here was much, much better though.

    Good luck to you, wherever you wind up.

    I've never worked at Little Darlings but I've worked in Vegas for the last three years and consistently bring home between $1,000 - $2,000 nightly. A lot of the girls I talk to at my club make well over $500 on any given night.

    Vegas has been getting really hit or miss no matter what club you work at. I've been working out here for 11 years at a lot of the big name clubs and in my opinion this year has been less than desirable. I checked my numbers for '09 and 2010 and I made about double than what I'm making now. I'm actually considering getting another job because it has gotten so bad. Yeah sure the weekends are still busy, but a lot of the clients have been soliciting us more than ever and don't want to spend a lot of money in the club. Clientele is mostly from California now a days and there hasn't been much variety other than that aside from the occasional bachelor parties. I miss my east coast clients Not much of them around anymore. This convention season hasn't been all that great either. It's still dead as hell during the weekdays even with conventions in town.

    I have been around and talked to a few freinds who are dancers and Las Vegas economy, being one of the worst hit is doing horrible... If you are coming here to work for a few months, you may be lucky if you make enough to pay your rent. It is up to you but it is rough out here.

    NREXM, are you a featured dancer? Also what club are you at pulling that much?

    I'm Currently working in Vegas and it is really inconsistent. Weekends are good. I go in early and I stay until I make at least $500, but I have made upwards of $2500 a night. I have made good money on week nights $500+ but it is so so so Rare!! Some week nights I have gone home with only $40 after house fee and tip outs. I would NOT go to little darlings they have been busted a lot lately and they take a lot of your earnings.. I would stick with the big high earning clubs Rhino, Treasures, Sapphire and Crazy Horse 3 ( After 2 am only)

    No, but I do have a good reputation with management that sends clients my way. I'm currently working at Sapphire.

    I don't do extra work. As a moderator, I'm surprised that you'd make commentary alluding to rumors.

    ^I'm confused, because I distinctly remember the post in which you said that this is something you did. Perhaps you just don't consider jerking guys off as an "extra" since Vegas is so crazy these days? I don't mean that as an attack--just an honest thought. Sometimes perspective can change a lot depending on what's going on around you. Shrugs.

    Having worked at Sapphire I know that the girls there on weekends typically make $1k+ a night doing no extras. Sapphire has a lot of traffic thru it and it has a lot of high end clientele. I don't think its super fair to assume someone is doing extras if they are making good money.

    Knowing dozens of dancers that span almost every club in town, I can tell you that NREXM's results are DEFINITELY not typical right now. Vegas' economy is the worst it's ever seen, period. The news channels try not to talk about how bad it really is in fact. Actual unemployment is topping 25%. The SC's are making record low money, and so are the dancers. Most clean girls have quit. Clubs are getting dirtier by the day - it's no surprise greeneyedgirl says she's been getting solicited more than ever, 'cuz custies EXPECT extras now - and for good reason, they are easy to find now.

    Short version - Vegas clubs are the dirtiest and lowest earning they've ever been, there are a FEW girls still making good money but even their money is down, and if you want to make consistent high dollars you pretty much have to suck & fuck or straight up lie & steal (say you'll do extras, get paid up front, than take the money & run - lots of girls resorting to this now). SEMA, NFR, CES, and 2 holiday weekends now have posted record low earnings for Vegas in general and the SC's in particular. Much as I love this town - bad idea to come here right now if you wanna make $$.

    "For the right price" would explain taking home $1,000+ right now, 'cuz nobody else is, that's for damn sure.

    And in response to that same quote - "I know that the girls there" - which ones? All of them? On a typical weekend night shift there are between 350 and 700 girls in that club. Are there maybe a couple of clean ones who leave with a grand? Sure. Consistently? Hell. Fucking. No. I can name 5 CLEAN dancers off the top of my head that work Sapphire regularly, who are good hustlers and hot girls, who tip out well and get set up, who are bitching regularly about how hard it is to make $300-500 a night there now. Same as everywhere else. There is good money at Sapphire and Rhino as always - but the girl to customer ratio is WAY off, guys don't spend what they used to, and again - extras are par for the course right now and custies will openly bitch at you and refuse to tip if they don't get the same "happy ending" their buddy just got.

    I didn't realize the previous hand job comment. I am most certainly not making $1000+ a night after memorial day. Friday I left with only $500 after fees. And the previous commentor is right that very few girls are leaving with $1000 + a night and they aren't leaving with that consistently. I was just trying to say that even if its rare that its not impossible. In high season this year I was always bringing home at least $800+ on most weekend nights and pretty consistently $1000. On weekdays I made at least $300 +. I am a clean dancer. I only do dances. To the original poster Vegas is in the low season after memorial day. This is not a good time to "try" Vegas.

    Everyone has a "price." What that "price" is happens to be entirely subjective between dancers and I don't believe for a second that most dancers would turn down the opportunity for large sums of cash if presented with their "price." If someone offered you a million dollars for a one night fuck, chances are you'd agree. Am I so wrong to agree? I also remember specifically stating that if, for the right price, I were to be giving extras, I'd be making a hell of a lot more than $1,000.

    Everyone here seems to assume that if you're willing to do something against your boundaries for a sum comfortable to break them it must mean that you're doing them daily and it's the only reason you're making any money.

    I talk to a lot of girls that come to Sapphire regularly and almost all of them are making over $500 nightly. Sure, there are bad nights and I realized that not everyone is walking away with big money, but I've never, ever, met a dancer that routinely makes under $300 on any given night. But you know, girls are known to lie so who knows whether they are actually making that much or lying to you about not making much at all. All I can speak for is myself, a clean dancer, who makes great money in Vegas.

    To be fair, I don't work in Vegas June - August so I'm not positive how the money is currently. All other months are great though. I'd imagine summer is much more difficult (as it was two years ago).

    there is absolutely no point of asking any dancer or cammer how they've been doing or "how is it?" not only because every person is different but because no one ever tells the truth anyway! theres only one way to find out- put in the work.

    It's a fair perspective. I think most of the girls on this board are specifically unhappy with extras dancers who are undercutting regular prices by offering extras for the same price. It's hard to sell a $20 clean dance when the girl next to you is selling $20 handjobs. It sounds like you aren't that person. I really appreciate your honesty and calm explanation. It is true that everyone has a price.

    Anyway, I'll stop threadjacking now.

    NREXM - I'm not attacking you personally, but I can tell you that if you're traveling down here and working a couple of months during the peak season, you have NO idea what it's like right now. Everywhere you go, the general consensus is that this is the worst it's ever been in as long as anyone can remember, going back to the '80's. There are more clubs than ever, more girls than ever, splitting a smaller pie than ever. To say nobody leaves with under $500 regularly is asinine - I personally know DOZENS of dancers spanning EVERY SINGLE CLUB IN TOWN, and they ALL consider $500 a good night right now. Yes - there are girls who make more, BUT NOT CONSISTENTLY. A good night, a lucky sit down with the right guy. But NOT consistently - or anywhere close.

    Memorial Day weekend was the slowest on record across town - casinos, SC's, EVERYWHERE. Record low attendance at CES, NFR, and SEMA. And every holiday weekend so far has been bust. Even the wealthy guys that DO show up are spending less than they used to and expecting more for what they do spend. I know dozens of girls who's regulars have cut their visits in half, and their spending by just as much, or have stopped coming in at all. And so on.

    In short - I'm glad that some girls are doing well, but 90% of dancers in this town are either trying to get out of the biz, scaling down their spending habits if they're staying in it - or resorting to selling extras to make as much as they used to. Nobody who LIVES HERE would tell you differently.
