Smartest Guys in the Room

Avatar for VeryBigDawg

Have you noticed that tuscl attracts a smart group of guys? I have meet about a dozen members (mostly at Follies) and found most to be well balanced and intelligent. Their flaw may be they spend too much on strippers; but that brings up another point that most have good paying jobs and can afford to blow some of it. Not to mention if news story hits a discussion topic is started almost immediately. All in all stellar crowd.

Your experience?

How is having lots of discretionary income to spend on exotic dancers a flaw?

Meh, there are plenty of morons here too, as is evidenced on plenty of threads. There are a lot of arguments that the bulk of us are probably egotistical, exploiters, sexist, no impulse control, etc, etc...So we certainly have our flaws.

But to your point, to have money to spend on such an expensive hobby, and to be able to charm a stripper into things that the average guy at a SC couldn't, you'd certainly have to some advantegeous combination of intelligence, awareness, humor and charisma. That and/or dumb luck.

I've posted something similar b/f.

b/f I joined TUSCL I has seen the website pop-up when I did an online search every now and then.

I felt that TUSCL was probably filled w super-perv lowlifes - I finally joined b/c I needed info for a Houston trip and wanted to read the reviews.

I was wary of looking at the discussion board and had no intentions of bothering w/ it b/c I did not want to associate myself "with the kind of people that would be on such a board" - after reading some Houston reviews I couldn't decipher which clubs to hit so decided to post something on the board - it was not as bad as I thought it would be and I agree w/ the OP there are a lot of successful, smart, and life-experienced folks on here and I've learned a lot beyond just being a bigger monger.

I agree with Papi_Chulo. Tuscl (reviews and forum) are not so bad once one gets over the first shock of reading what gets posted here and the second shock of actually joining. It's the whole preoccupation of paying for sex (that mindset) and sometimes the locker room jock mentality and the perception that the girls are being treated like cattle, that seems to follow the same mindset. It's not exactly correct but not exactly incorrect at the same time. It's not actually that bad and there is a very high concentration of very life-experienced, successful, and intelligent folks on this site. A young person can learn a lot. That is what keeps me coming back (other than the tits and ass).

Papi_Chulo lots of good points. Dominic77 right on.

Forgot to mention, it is always good to compare notes with my fellow PLs. Have learned a lot: Never want to step in to a strip club in NC, Vegas clubs are way overpriced, Hiliter in Phoenix on my bucket list.

I had before referred to TUSCLers as egomaniacs. I think online promotes this, but also one gets like this when they get accustomed to strip clubs and find their own 'system'.

Our average IQ would be fairly high but SJG's negative number really drags down the average.

With JS69 you have to give him two different numbers, one for straight, and one for under the influence. But less and less are we seeing evidence of this former number.

We TUSCLers are the smartest guys in the strip club--but that may not be saying much. It's not like we're the smartest guys in a university.

VBD... We mostly realize this when we learn about what we do in our "real" lives. There are some goofballs on here but most the guys I've met in person are pretty sharp.

Based on the literally hundreds of strippers that I have met and lapped, I can confidently state that I am the smartest lady in the stripclub. Not smart enough to stop going and saving my money, but smart enough to stay out of trouble and find my way back home after each visit.

Juice brings our average IQ up 20 points, SJG brings it down 10, and Fishsticks brings it down another 10 - so it's a wash.

We would likely all be millionaires if we weren't spending so much in strip clubs.

I didn't realize I was living like a millionaire living beneath my means. Fastest way to become a millionaire is to save most of your money each year and then invest well.

Yeah but then you die w/o having the fun and the memories and leave your $$$ behind for someone else to spend - I guess there needs to be a balance.

Strip club deduction on 1040 would be nice.

Avatar for Dominic77
Dominic77

SCs used to be a deductible business expense. Smart guys don't spend their own money. I remember the '90s where guys would buy a round of drink or some dances on the company P-card or expense it. I say we bring that back. :)

Avatar for sharkhunter
sharkhunter

If I had that deduction for the last decade or two, I would be rich. I'd also have to track my spending. If it was total, not too hard. I wouldn't like to break it out, lap dances, drinks, cover charges, tips, etc, etc.

Avatar for sharkhunter

I can imagine asking a stripper for a receipt for the dances and tip when she is on stage next.

I've used my P-card on multiple $1K+ bill bar/dance club tabs before. But I don't ever want to come close to testing my company's opinion on expensing a strip club visit on a work trip.

If be fired if I tried to expense such a visit, even if it was a legitimate IRS entertainment expense for clients. There's a morals clause in the expense rules.

i am probably the most ignorant one here. my life choices such as my ex wife and my occupation choice of truck driver prove that. that and the CrAzY way i spent my savings after splitting up... spent huge amounts in vegas before i finally wised up. it was a fun but EXPENSIVE learning curve. also bad investments that have not worked. i thank GOD that my kids are smarter than me.
