The movies vs the strip clubs

Detroit strip clubs
Although I don't often go to movie theaters, I had wanted to see "The Last Jedi." (Brief review: Too long, too many explosions, too little plot and character development). I went to the 11AM showing, which only cost $5. I would have liked to eat a big tub of popcorn, but I refused to pay $8. I can pop that much popcorn at home for about 25 cents. My frugality prevents me from wasting money.
However, the next day I went to the F_____ Club. I drank 7 beers ($8.75 each) and bought 4 drinks for dancers (ranging from $15 to $20). The waitress received a 20% tip. And of course I took 2 dancers up to VIP (with curtains). In total I spent about $500.
Why don't I care about wasting money in strip clubs? A beer at home costs less than a dollar. How can I buy one in the club for $8.75? Where has my frugality gone?

Still, I will sometimes try to limit spending on expenses unrelated to whatever dancer I'm pursuing. For instance, one drink per night at the club is enough for me, I switch to soda after that.
I'm conscious of it in the club, but always end up spending more than I intend. But not elsewhere.
We prioritize our time and money based on what we think is important so I guess that puts the order for you as: pussy, beer, money, movie and popcorn. I would probably have the same priorities.
But I think it’s not always the thing itself but what it represents to us. Pussy and beer represent our youth. I’m middle aged and I’ve buried enough relatives that I know that I’m not immortal. And it fucks with the subconscious a bit.
So to make up for it I go to a crowded strip club with a bunch of ass holes all around me.
you must go to some high end clubs. 8.75 for a beer is a lot. the only place i've been to in which beers cost that much was las vegas.
also, jack you must have a high tolerance. it seems like driving home after SEVEN beers would be difficult lol
Me at the club: *spends money he shouldn’t be spending
Me after the club: “Why am I always broke? Oh right....”
Alas, movie theater rimjobs are non-brilliant. :(
Ive actually been thinking more about the dance prices at strip clubs lately. There are many places and products where "you get what you pay for" applies. Strip clubs arent always one of them. Im not sure a $30 dance is better than a $20 or even $10 dance in a lot of cases. Those are a bigger waste of money than overpriced beers.
Very true. Except at maybe a regular bar, and even then, probably still cheaper to buy your own and drink at home or a friends house. But they are only overpriced because people pay for it. The same way they are willing to pay at a strip club.
No. That and my answer to #2 make a horrible combination
2) Do you drink and smoke doobies while you play chess?
Yes.
3) Depending on the ansers to #1 and #2, you wanna hang out sometime?
Ok but no homosexual behavior.
I'm willing to pay more to watch one of my favorite sports teams or entertainers then I would be a regular game or entertainer who's not a favorite. Same rules apply in movies vs. SC. You value the SC entertainment more. So you are willing to pay more.
One reason I joined this site though was to learn from some of the masters here and spend less money and get more pussy. So far I've learned general otc prices and strategies and increased my confidence in what I can ask for, and its working...I will admit I've wasted a bit of money in the past. There is nothing wrong with spending for a good result though.
I can change in the middle when they bore me.
I went to see Start Wars I when is came out and it was so terrible I almost swore off the series then when SW II came out UGH!
Strip clubs are a much better way to spend your money. Even if low mileage clubs you get to see titties!
Example - I have been telling myself I blow too much money on lunches so I should cut back, then I go out with Mrs. S on Friday night and spend $91 on dinner (before tip / $111 after tip). Dinner consisted of a individual pizza for me, a salad for her, a bottle of wine and we shared a dessert. Yeah way to budget!
