    Default I'm really happy to be making $2000 a month

    At a 9-5 in China. Just think about that when your complaining about a bad night at work.

    But…..The work truthfully is 1000X less stressful.

    People really don't understand how hard dancers work.

    Thats my 2 cents

    I guess $2000 in a month is OK if you are a dancer who only works once per week.

    Even better if you're a dancer who only works once or twice a month!

    This post scares me.

    A dancer has about 20 lucrative years assuming you start at 18 and end at 38. If you are making 2000 and being honest to Uncle Same, you are really making about 1400 after taxes here in the US. This means you are making 16,600 a year and 336,000 in 20 years.



    336,000 will probably earn you a humble abode and a reliable and economical vehicle along with all the other expenses of life (food, utilities, insurance) as long as you are frugal and very healthy.

    Take into consideration the cost of retirement (approx 1 mil at 65) raising a child (200k per kid) healthcare, recreation, etc.


    As long as you have a back up plan, making this amount of money is great! Have a college degree or some other vocational skill.

    Not necessarily. I'm 6 years beyond your end date, and have no plans on quitting. If I continue to take care of myself, I could probably do this job into my early 50's. Hell, I could probably do it until I reach traditional retirement age if I feel ok with being a joke stripper. I don't mind making people laugh, and I don't take myself very seriously so this is definitely a possibility. Tempest Storm performed full time until she was 67. She still performs on occasion and she is now in her 80's.

    I couldn't pay my monthly bills for $2000/month. I strip to afford the lifestyle I want. It is difficult work physically and mentally and I deserve far more than I currently make. I am happy on my $2000ish/week, but I still think I'm under paid

    More power to you

    Working just 20 years and far exceeding 2k a month is a fantastic and realistic dream. I hope to be done long before the traditional retirement age.

    at my club i'm only making on average 2000-2500 a month working 4 days a week. This economy sucks hard. My club has 15 girls week nights 45+ on weekends and lets face it the guys just aren't spending money like they used to. Not to mention this desperation for making what we used to make is causting girls to get dirtyier and dirtier. and I am not willing so that will cut into my money and regulars too.

    I think that the original post was actually NOT a dancer, but someone attempting (not sure why?) to give some perspective on how much we might make in another job... or maybe I'm reading that wrong. Which I understand - dancing can make us money crazy and then we bitch about making a few hundred in a few hours, whereas your "average" worker would be thrilled to make that. But at the same time....all earning is industry specific - and there is nothing to say that we would be in "average" jobs if not dancing. I was in law school - who is to say that I wouldn't be scoffing at 5grand a month if I had stuck with it?

    And of course it all depends on living expenses, exit strategies... You can absolutely work in the sex industry until a usual retirement age if that is your plan. Or you can save and retire early. Or you can move into other careers.... To each their own.

    I don't think making $2K a month at a 9-5 in China of all places will be the first thing I think about after a bad night at work. That's simply not going to be on my mind.

    Making 2K in a week is on my mind, not 2K for a month in China.

    My bills alone are over $5k a month not including necessities (shampoo, food, Rx) or wants.

    I only make 2k a month after taxes at my day job :-( sucks cuz I used to make at least 5k a month dancing three nights a week. Just tried dancing again this weekend at a dive and made $800 (12 hours worth of work) I'm VERY tempted to quit my day job and just go back yo dancing and dance full time...!!
