2013, A Look Back
This was my most active year to date and I enjoyed the nostalgia of re-reading through my reviews. Here are my numbers. Feel free to post your own.
31 Total Club Visits at 20 Different Clubs over 9 months (Mar-Nov) in 7 States.
California had the most Clubs:8 and the most visited Club: Deja Vu North Hollywood, 4 visits (don't get the impression that means a ringing endorsement, decidedly mixed results there).
Further Extrapolation:
A $300 per night avg dance spend = $9300 for the year
Drinks spend avg $60 per night = $1860 (That would have been much higher had I not embraced the no alcohol nude clubs this year where the drink spend was much less).
Total Estimated Spend = $11,160 (F'n PL!)
Avg 2 dancers per visit = 62 different dancers (though that is probably high because I tend to find and stay with favorites and return to them on following visits).
Avg # of laps is a bit harder to estimate what with VIPs, so avg 15 LDs a night = 465
What are your year end numbers? Do you even want to know?
Comments
last commentI know that I hit a club at least every week. So I'm guessing at 60 for the year. An average of $300 per visit equals $18,000. That includes an average of $5 for a coke on each visit. Free admission on 99% of the visits.
8 did not go to clubs for about an 8 month stretch. That leaves about 4 months of active clubing. I would estimate about $4000- $5000 spent on clubs in 2013.
Year end numbers are unimportant to me.
ROFLMFAO ^ ^ ^
For you to say that any numbers are uniportant to you is ludicrous How high is your "list?"
Ban year end numbers and moderate those posters into the dark place! Year end numbers should be illegal!!!
I'm usually in the 10-15k range as well. Varies a bit.
I spent exactly one shit-load of money on strippers in 2013. I went to my regular clubs once or twice a week. After I split with my ATF, I went a month or so without OTC, but then my current CF took the position, so to speak. Overall, a good year.
This year was kind of a slow one for me as well. After the SB left, I slowed way down for a while. I'm still not spending at the same rate I was last year, but but one of my New Year's resolutions is to stop pining after what can no longer be, and get over it. There's a couple of girls I expect to suck it out of me on a more regular basis this year.
I say well done Jackcash!
Like the sign at Bogarts says: Supporting Single Mothers One Dollar at the Time
I slowed down dramatically in 2012 when the ATF thing ended. 2013 was even worse as I had no work travel to help me. Only 9 total visits in 2013 (4 of which happen during the same weekend). Only 3 resulted in dropping any serious $ on private time.
I'm going to call 2013 "The Year of Insanity". I've got you all beat by a mile.
If I do the same thing in 2014, I'll end up homeless, living under and overpass before year's end.
Hard to stop though.
So so year for me. My vacations with Toronto sweetie were far more $$$ than the total of my SC spending through the year.
One fun visit to a Toronto club. One weird visit to a Toronto club. Most noteworthy for me, in a bad way, was my first case of unsatisfied blue balls in a Vancouver club. My cash couldn't buy relief ITC, OTC.......just nuthin' that evening.
I don’t track/record my visits or spending; but perhaps I should & may start doing it in 2014.
But I was pretty good about writing reviews for most of my visits.
My PL #s per my reviews:
Visits => 85 (this probably accounts for ~85% of my visits since I wrote reviews for most but not all)
Clubs => 32 (all in So. FL)
Spending – hard to say – since I mostly go to $5/dance black dives; I’d say a guesstimate would be $200/visit times 85 visits = ~$17k.
But I’m not a PL – I’m a hobbyist :)
If I actually calculated it out I'm sure that I would have an aneurism. I dare not do it.
Shadowcat has me beat.
I hope I get the Shadowcat senior rate when I'm 65.
I might spend extra then too.
