I'm sorry, SophieFatale.
I've been there and done that. It's soul-crushingly terrible to go through those stretches.
May I suggest something? A lot of financially comfortable customers like to (for lack of a better word) "slum"-it nowadays. They are conscious of their bank accounts and feel that they get a better deal in a mid-level club vs. big-name clubs with fees for just about everything and astronomical luxury-level prices. I've noticed that even wealthy clients are more interested in seeing a pair of tits/getting a dance rather than spending for the sake of spending and showing off in a palatial club. If you get a decent night, put $60 aside straight away and get your sexy ass down to a smaller club where you can be a big fish in a small pond. You need to realize that you are throwing money away and paying your clubs rent... and for what? You have to figure out a way to move on. Sometimes the grass isn't greener in the high-end places.
A smaller club will probably have lower fees. Less competition. And more customers (with smaller amounts of money, but it does add up).
Everyone is taking a financial hit right now. Just remember that you are a free agent and you have the option of going where the money is (or at least saving some money on fees).
