Going "bankrupt" after moving to a high mileage state

It's called self control. If you don't have it this can be a dangerous hobby. Know your budget, not just for individual visits but per week, per month and per year.

No matter how good the girls are, they aren't worth messing up your life outside of the club by overspending on them. Especially if all you are doing is getting lapdances and not ducking them.

Make a special account or wallet just for strip clubbing. Put money in it for the month. Don't go beyond it.

This hobby can control you if you're not careful.

Start working another job, uber eats etc to come up with the needed funds

Pace yourself. Too much of anything no matter how awesome and you’ll eventually burn out on it.

Example - I love to play poker, haven’t been able to play much this year. Went the other day, actually won a significant amount of money for once. Was excited. Want to go do it again. Had a free night the other day and passed, trying to limit myself to once a month that way it’s still exciting for me.

Have you made impulsive decisions over things in the past. Some people have trouble with self control. I’m not trying to put you down, almost all of us are obsessive over something in our lives and waste too much time and/or money blown on it.

Actually I'm usually the opposite, not impulsive enough. And I could have spent like 5x more. FL SC are just too fun.

LOL @Rick

That would definitely solve the problem but not the way you think. Wouldn't have time any more. And that doesn't pay at all, on a relative basis. I have the $, just too cheap to spend it, alas the quotes.

4x in a week, that’s got to be hitting the limit on the extra layers of skin your dick has available to be ground off!

What I do is pay all of my bills ahead of time and then take half of what's left as discretionary spending money

One thing I've found that makes it easier to stay out of the club is finding a girl or two for OTC. It might sound a little counter intuitive, but I often find myself waiving off a trip to the club in favor of having a fave come over instead. OTC is somewhat cheaper when you factor in all the costs, especially if you see the same girl regularly.

^ I was about to post the exact same thing, it's very easy to skip the club when you have a FWB relationship with a stripper, and seeing the same girl out of the club is cheaper no matter what the activity consider that there are much fewer outstretched hands, tipping a server is a lot cheaper than a typical club employee for the same thing.

Oh, it gets a hell of a lot cheaper when you start venturing into more FWB/Sugar Baby type scenarios. It's not a majority of them, but there are plenty of those Cuban girls in their late 20's in the clubs that are up for those sort of arrangements. But it takes some practice learning to identify them, it might take a recent transplant a while to learn to sift out the romance hustlers and scammers to find the gems.

On a related note, do people really consider hitting two clubs on the same day "two trips to the strip club?" If I hit one club in an area where there is a cluster, I frequently will check out another one, sometimes two. I do the same after a long weekend in the Keys, where I'll make a few stops into some of Miami clubs as I drive north. I've hit all three south Florida Cheetah's on the same day in that situation. I still think of all of those as sorta one visit to the club though.

I expect the novelty will eventually wear off, and you’ll be able to fall into a more healthy and sustainable pace. I think of south Florida strip clubs like the beach. I live near the beach, but I rarely go to the beach. However, I love that fact knowing it’s nearby for whenever I want to go.

i couldn't live in South Florida. Having the Pompano 3 in short driving distance anytime I was a little bored would ruin me.

You know what banging the same looking cuban girls all the time while fun you sort of what something different after a while. I would just get it all out of your system so you can move on in life. Right now your in shiny new toy syndrome mode.

Pussy is addictive bro trust me

I find the exorbitant prices to be a turnoff and the quality of dancers to be insufficient cause to repeatedly visit the ATM. Good on you if you're enjoying it, just enjoy it within a set budget.

Yeah, my balances will be smaller Sept 1 than Aug 1. Don;t mind it (if I get value/fun). Can't take it with me 6 feet under.

Even boobs are addictive, @ Mr Monger

Kind of wish I had this mindset when I was in my 20's tbh

It doesn't matter what club or how many clubs you go to. What matters is what you personally feel you got out of it or not

Dolfan, i was curious on your comment of sugaring /fwb being cheaper.

Because ive heard of some guys using the seeking site, but still paying $400+ per meetup. Of course, its more of an organic meeting, where there could be a restaurant visit first, which the guy also pays for. But net-net if the guy is spending $400+ per meeting it is still close to stripper otc or escorting.

giving myself a never do back to back days rule from now on

holy s&&t my spending

Yeah I'm gonna go bankupt if I stay near Pompano

(and it's not even rooms)

Just on $10 dances lol

Enjoying these girls is a rich man's hobby.
And I ain't a rich man. Blew through my savings (which was a comfortable amount.)
So I've had to cut way back... but I'm still having fun. but certainly not as much fun as I would like.

You need to budget

Better to get it out of your system instead of making yourself miserable holding back when you really don’t want to.

When you start getting bored, you’ll have some clarity to think about what you really want. Find a higher paying job? Save money and make financial investments? Leave the scene and focus on dating for a while?

At the end of the day, you have to be honest with yourself, because no one else is going to.
