Y’all underestimate that time. It was looked down upon if you wasn’t in the club throwing money at women. It really wasn’t for them it was to prove to each other they can throw more. So the bartenders were making more than the strippers and it was a whole fight. That was 08-11

[@Odog711]

I ain’t our business how somebody else spends there money.

[@Mythoughtsin2024]

She said she works one night a week. Yall don’t understand how the bar works lol it is very believable. The bartenders usually get a percentage off each bottle (that is usually 100x the actual cost), a portion of the sections, and they get tipped out from bottle girls. People used to FLY to get served by Bernice. Even Ak agrees 😭 And the Miami startenders are VERY different compared to the Bernice’s … they literally have at least 3 storefronts. Granted, they’re all poorly ran (with the worst possible customer service ever) but you see where the money goes. They have their kids in private school and also take care of their families. They live in really nice neighborhoods here. They have nice cars, too.

[@Mythoughtsin2024]

AND what she also didn’t mention is that the clubs would literally PAY HER A BASE FEE to work (bc it will bring in more customers). So her base pay is probably $7000 off rip. The some clubs have strippers who have to tip out 10% of their earnings too… Please yall lmfao at least learn more before making an uninformed opinion

[@Freshness0009]

The 2014-2017 NY Starlets era was ABSOLUTELY making that much (every weekend). At the time there was a whole stripper vs bartenders beef because of how much the Bartenders were making.
