Cashless clubs?

I don’t see this as a viable strategy for strip clubs, too many guys want to be under the radar for numerous reasons I don’t think it will work.

I'm a solid no on cashless clubs.

I'll believe it when I see it.

If you read the thread it's not cashless. It's just dances and VIPs are paid in cash and the dancer receives a receipt. Which she cashes in at the end of the shift (if she didn't lose it!).

Tips are cash.

This is no different than Cheerleaders and Oasis in Philly have been for 15+ years. The customer settles up with the dance monitor. The dancer gets tickets like you'd use at a carnival. She turns them in at the end of her shift and receives her multiples of $15 a dance (club pockets $5 a dance). Any cash tips, you hand her separately.

I probably haven’t paid cash in a drive thru or sit down restaurant in over 20 years.

Bring it on

I have had many dancers request a cash app payment for VIP tip, so the don't lose the cash, spend it in the club or have make a deposit. I have a special account I use for that & insist on her accepting my direct deposit before she gets her direct deposit.

Cash will always be king. The Dems are moving forward with FedCoin - an "exploratory" Executive Order to look into electronic currency , be afraid, be VERY AFRAID. There is a reason casinos use chips and not cash, and why the IRS requires employers to withhold taxes.

True or not it does sound like something real: in the late '60s/'70s or so, Coors in Golden Colorado use to pay their "Blue Collar" workers in cash. They'd line up at a table, get their gross salary, then move down the table and pay their taxes one type at a time: Fed, State, Medicare, Medicaid, SS, ect. Supposedly Adolf Coors did this so workers understood how much govt takes out of their pocket. The IRS shut the practice down. True? No idea but sure sounds like a great American Legend and something govt would like.

I use cash. Cash is God. Since airlines went cashless I haven't ordered a drink and never will. Once strip clubs go cashless, I won't go at all. 48 years of it would be enough. The absolute best part of being older is that it is so much easier to walk away and you don't have to submit.

Oh hell no. I’m not handing my money punch card to any of the array of retards, cheats, and “there’s a service fee for that” scammers lurking at my local SC. Plus it’s hard enough keeping my hobby in the DL without having a damn electronic transaction trail. Nope to the nope.

I read on reddit that the nashville dejavu clubs have been operating this way for the last couple weeks and the girls arent happy cause they can't negotiate dance prices and can't flub on tip outs anymore cause everything is tracked to the penny.

I've been to a lot of clubs that you pay someone other than the dancer for all dances but never one that doesn't accept cash when you are paying that person. I have seen some clubs where it is tracked by the person you pay, some that give paper tickets like you would get for a raffle and at least one place that gives the dancer a poker chip like token that they cash out at the end of the night.

I have noticed that the girls at these places are usually more appreciative of cash tips. Not sure if it is just a sense of instant gratification for them since they have cash immediately that way or if it is because that is the only way they make any money that isn't tracked by the club for taxes and tipouts.

Now I’ve been to a few bars around the world that do this. It’s a real pain in the ass to run your card every time you buy a round of drinks.

When drinking is involved I’m sure you could easily use your imagination on how easily a customer could get ripped off.

I was trying to think why would a business do this in the first place but I guess employee theft is just too high for them to control.

I'm going to Olive Garden to get 100 $1 gift cards so I can still make it rain stage side.

^sage advice.

I would never use credit or ATM in a club; cash only. Can they prohibit cash, given Federal “legal tender” laws? California has laws screwing with some cash payments by clubs to the girls who must be classified as employees not independent contractors (so State tax & wage laws can be applied), typically requiring dancers to “earn” their minimum wage & withholdings before getting a pay out. Screws the girls, but that’s Socialism. But they want extras cash tips, so it raises extras availability to an extent.

Gosh, if only there was an open-source, global, permissionless, private, decentralized, scarce, sound, digital, bearer money... some kind of monetary network that couldn't be shut down by politicians... wouldn't that be so useful?

I bet TUSCL would use it (it does)
I bet TER would use it (it does)
I bet P411 would use it (it does)
I bet escort agencies would use it (many do)
I bet tens of thousands of small retail locations around the world would use it (they do)
I bet sovereign nations might make it legal tender (one has already)

Perhaps strippers and strip clubs will start using it too? I dare not say money's name, though... it gets a number of people on this forum in a tizzy! "It's a scam," they say. "Money is only what the government says is money."

Those with intuition and foresight will get it, and keep it, and pass it to their children, and their children's children... and those families will be shielded from the effects of monetary debasement.
