All this talk of black Friday and holiday spending made me wonder how most strippers spend/waste their money. I know many of them do have real bills that take up most of their money. I am though, especially curious about the high earners, the ones that consistently pull in over 8-10 grand a month. I doubt that any of them really have that much or even half of that amount in terms of bills. Seriously, if the girls that did this had halfway decent money management skills, some of them could do quite well with themselves after even only 5-10 years in the business. I know this is a question best answered by strippers, but stripperweb is mostly useless to non strippers. I could argue that it's mostly useless to most strippers too, lol.
Drugs. My ATF went from a stripper who made a lot of money and wasted it in foolish and prodigal ways to a stripper who had nothing. She lost her apartment and ended up in a cheap motel. She finally admitted to me that she was addicted to heroin, and was spending $1700 a week on it (over $80,000 a year).
Usually the high earners spend their money on total bs. Purses shopping sprees clothes then of course there's drugs and loser guys and their drug and alcohol habits. There's certainly exceptions to these generalities but for the most part that's what I've seen. Oh yeah endless phone upgrades or replacements car repairs etc. don't forget pet food and vet visits for the inevitable zoo of animals that they live with that are their "kids" exotic birds snakes pit bulls are the dog of choice for strippers. This one chick I see had no fewer that 12 cats. 12 cats! I hate cats
There was another thread like this where PLs posted stories of stupendous lyrics stupid ways they saw strippers piss money away. Pet psychics, spur of the moment vacations. Heck, what does a body load of tattoos cost?
My two CFs both seem to be responsible and are focused on saving up to raise their kids as single mothers and plan for an end game to the stripper life. Another I recently met just opened her own tanning salon and is back dancing to support herself and that business's rent until it gains traction. But, she also told me she likes $900 purses. I also now frequent a heavily Brazilian club and all those girls tell me they save up to visit home twice a year.
One thing for sure regardless of where they spend it for the most part it doesn't end up in a savings account or stay long in their possession.
The two I am closest two are always claiming they make great money and both are very good looking girls but each finds themselves scrambling on the 29th of each month to make rent. I dated one of these two for about six months and she was constantly broke, always. Whenever I asked her what exactly she did with money she would get extremely defensive so I learned to shrug my shoulders and ignore her comments but it never made much sense to me.
They almost always to find a way to spend it all.
I talked to one girl who was supporting her brother and his pregnant girlfriend.
The ones who do not have a drug/party habit spend it on frivolous things or their kids.
That discounts the deadbeat boyfriends.
Seldom do I talk with a smart one who saves and invests.
I did get dances from a 20's hottie with a second grade daughter who had just gotten her GED and enrolled at the local community college for accounting/ bookkeeping certifications, had moved back in with her mom after making peace to save money. She said she was putting away 10% of her earnings every week into a mutual fund stock account(harder to access than a bank account). She knew she had limited time where she could make really good money shaking her assets.
Only 1 of 20 or so realizes that partying through your 20's while your looks get you by will end quickly.
I have found on who seems to break the stripper norm. My CF owns her own house and a nice car, she quilts, she does not seem to do drugs, but she admits she once did and she has the record to prove it but nothing in the last nine years. She has impressed me so far. Seeing her today if she does not flake, but so far she has been dependable.
Make-up, false eyelashes, hair treatments, perfume. I looked up a type of eye lashes a girl mentioned and it was $200 for a 2week supply. And she'd say stuff like "I can't go to work today because I'm out of eyelashes". It would take her 3 hours to put on $100 worth of makeup which would make her 2 hours late for her shift and cost her a $40 late fee.
If you're taking care of a guy's "ejaculatory needs" he probably doesn't care what your makeup looks like. Heck, last night I saw a guy take a 48 yr old stripper and a 175lb shot girl for a double VIP and I'm pretty sure it wasn't because he thought their makeup was pretty.
shadowcat--I can say with a certainty this doesn't apply in my case (study)
Most of the clubs do provide food --even if not for the customers they feed the girls in the back room when they take a break. About the most they spend on food is when a few of them get together at 4 AM after the clubs close to talk shop ( typically the clients or the club conditions) at a Denny's or an IHOP.
My ATF is one that did quite well. Last I heard of her, she was driving her Porsche and living on the beach north of Ft. Lauderdale. Also, when she was dancing, I went with her to buy a new truck. She told me she could pay cash, but didn't want questions asked about the money. She didn't bank it while dancing, but invested afterwards.
@shadow a dancer once told me how much she loves UberEats and then proceeded to tell me how she spent a $5 delivery fee and $5 tip ordering $8 of food from McDonalds. Actually, I don't think she even realized that the $18 charge was only $8 food.
Few of the girls I know bother to work more than they need to. The top earners mostly take more time off, unless they have some expensive habits. The most expensive habit I have is literally taking days off to myself. I have to pay a fine, and I’m forgoing ab 550 in earnings. I know I could easily afford to have someone cook/clean for me, and buy more convenience products, and just work more, but it’s the flip side of the coin for me. I need that time to myself and I’d prolly have a normal job if I didn’t.
Stripping is similar to other sales jobs. It’s a high stress job that wears most people down over the years. A talented, hard working sales person can make great money at a young age. The smart move is to save and invest for when your income declines. Almost no sales person does. They enjoy a flashy lifestyle. Then, it’s Willie Loman time.
How could i forget an obvious "expense"? Unnecessary but very expensive cosmetic surgery. And other body mods (tattoos have already been mentioned) and sometimes the removal/reversal of them. I'm not sure how much piercings cost, but i think they're generally cheaper than tattoos, unless you're using very expensive jewelry (another frivolous expense, especially stripper jewelry like anklets and what are they called, waistlets?)
I knew a high earner that probably spent her life savings on breast implants, butt augmentation (i think injections) and liposuction on her stomach (probably to fill up her butt, although she didn't all that much fat to transfer). She did it all at once. She didn't need any of that. She already had great tits (D cups), but a very little on the saggy/MILFy side and a nice butt. She had slight stretch marks on a slightly loose stomach, but now she has this messed up scar, although her abs show now. She just looks weird and she doesn't make any more money now, probably even less as she works at a lower end club now. It's kind of like a reject club that girls come to when they burn better options, but the talent isn't that good, so they're bigger fish now. There was another beautiful dancer with a beautiful body that got similar work done (no lipo, but maybe some lip filler), so she probably burned through her savings as well and also worked briefly at the same club after bouncing through all the other clubs. Both of these girls are almost straight up whores now, when they didn't do it before or were much more selective.
Another dancer at a higher end non extras club had great tits (perky Ds, although somehow she lost a little volume later on) and luscious pussy lips, but she got the terrible and expensive combo of implants and labiaplasty and is no longer working at the club that made her all that money. I think she made less at that club after all that work and was fired or quit. I certainly lost interest in her. I haven't seen her anywhere else, but i know there is one club that almost all the girls there are plastic that i don't go to. Maybe she went there.
I wish these girls would have invested in just one or two counseling or therapy sessions with a specialist in body image. That would much more effective and cheaper in resolving their issues than the surgery.

Even if the clubs provide free food or cheap food, or they get a customer to pay for it, most girls don't eat just one meal a day. Some probably do similar to a starving model; not very healthy although there is a healthy way to eat most of your calories and nutrients in one meal or a small window of time (intermittent fasting) which often involves very specific and complex food combining or order of eating, and that's not likely at the strip club. And most girls work less than 5 days a week, so they have the vast majority of their food outside the club. I'm guessing they do eat out a lot. Where, who knows, but a lot of them do fast food or cheap chains; again not very healthy.
I'm guessing some girls who came from poor backgrounds, might suddenly load up on things they never had before or kind of like a variation of "sudden wealth syndrome" or more like sudden high income syndrome. Where before they had or could afford nothing, now they can buy a lot of material things.
IME it's what Bj99 said. Many of these women have a great week or a great couple of days and then opt to just not work for x amount of time. Pulling down $500 a shift is great, but if you only work 8 or 9 days a month it only goes so far.
The flip side of this is getting very little money back out of their purchases. Girls sometimes sell a closet full of stripper gear for a few hundred, that they spent thousands on.
Reading this thread kind of makes me feel better about myself. I waste lots of my disposable income on them, and they waste lots of their disposable income on all this worthless stuff. So strippers and PLs are both suckers if you think about it.
I agree with the people who say that strippers mostly "splurge" by taking time off. I know a few girls who only work 4 hours a day, 3 to 4 days per week, tops. I wonder how much more money they would really make if they worked a full 8 to 10 hour shift, 5 or 6 days a week, like a "regular" job. Would they become rich or just get burned out?

With a lot of them they spend it on drugs and supporting their unemployed wannabe musician boyfriend.
With some of them it’s expensive clothes, shoes, eating out all the time, expensive stripper outfits.
