How Do Strip Clubs Handle The Cash?

money was invented for handing to women, but buying dances is a chump's game

I see how it is handled in stores and restaurants. We have three armored car companies. One is Loomis. They install their own 'smart safes', and they come every morning to open it and take the cash. For some places they also bring change allotments, and sometimes that being in register drawer inserts.

Loomis is its own bank, so they deposit the money into the clients account. And trying to rob them is a federal offense. Lots of laws still on the book which allow them to shot first to protect the money.

Anyone ever seen armored car runs at strip clubs? Anyone ever seen that they have a safe? I have not.

Do the armored car drivers actually go into the main area where the girls are, or is it just in the entry way and ticketing area?

People always talk about how in retail, the owners try to keep money under the table to avoid taxes. I see this all the time in Viet Coffee.

But usually these kinds of tactics actually limit the size of the business, as the owners have to do it themselves. If it is that loose, then if you let anyone else handle it, they will be stealing money.

Guy who ran George's Rockin' Robin planned to keep working as an electrician. But people were always pocketing the money. So he had to quit and be there to run it himself. At least this is what he said.

So if you want other people to be able to run it, how do you make sure the money is not messed with. Of course then you need clear records, multiple people checking it and making reports. Today it seems best to have a networked computer accounting system that the figures are entered into, so that management can see right off what is going on.

So anyone seen any of this money protection, or the armored car runs, at strip clubs? Should be about $3k per day gross minimum, but often easily 3x that amount, or more.

This is for real retail strip clubs. The kind of alternative thing I am thinking of, maybe $1k per day to $3k per day for the house, more like AMP levels.

Theorycrafting here...

Strip clubs aren't 24/7 operations, so armored cars might come once everything is closed and all the girls have left, which would explain why you never see them.

I'm not 100% sure how a dancer pays the house fee (be it before or after the shift, maybe both depending on the place or dancer?), but I'm fairly certain that there's a system that keeps count. Since dancers are independent contractors, it might be as simple as "buying" a ticket to perform, per se, and having receipts, and then the dancers pocket all they tips and work as such.

There are probably cameras that make sure people don't steal. Computers probably help keep track of everything. My guess is the less technology is involved, the more the owner is involved in the process himself. So, an owner that owns one strip club probably shows up multiple days a week to make sure his money is on point, where as a Rick's, Scores, or Sapphires (are they the same? If they are, excuse my ignorance) probably got systems in place so that CEOs and owners get all the money that capitalism will allow them to get.

But yeah. This is just a theory.
