This is very interesting because it relates to an experience this last weekend. Typically, I go to a club with my wife, and bring about $600-$700, and am happy to spend it.

There are two reasons why I might not, however. The first is if I cannot find a dancer to my liking, which is rare at the club I frequent.
The second is more common, and happened this weekend. I had loads of cash in my pocket, and was looking to spend an hour in VIP with my wife (about $400 plus tip). We had spent a few hours in the club stage tipping, and had found two dancers who we both found very attractive. However, despite our best efforts, it was very difficult to get either to come over to us. Both my wife and I are very friendly, attractive (i.e., not gross), and both tip very well on stage. However, both dancers that we liked were off chatting with guys who were
clearly not spending anything (regulars or not, I'm not sure). We waited for about an hour, trying to get their attention with no luck. I was just about to walk out of the door, annoyed, with $500 in my pocket unspent, when finally the dancer we had been asking for (through the waitress) finally came over.
This doesn't seem all that uncommon. We come club with lots of cash and are dying to be relieved of it by a dancer who we find attractive--but the dancer seems intent on chatting up some guy who more often than not does not buy a dance at all, or buys one $20 dance. Now, if the guy is a regular, then that makes sense I suppose. But otherwise, the dancer is losing the opportunity to walk out with my $400-$500, in return for spending ages talking to some guy who is not spending a dime.
So, there is something to be said for Destiny's comment: you "cannot have all these men leaving the club with their back pockets bulging with cash."

Often I'm sitting there with my pockets uncomfortably full of bills, just begging to be "stripped" of my cash. If I could only find a dancer to come over to us...

I feel like I should walk in the club with a sign on my back that says, "
Please take my Money"...
