Not really. All the clubs I worked at you would consider big. So the average amount I would make per night was $1700. $900 on a bad night, and around $2300 on a great night. I never really found it seedy. The hardest thing was living in secrecy. Or having people that knew, have some 'dirt' on me. It was very hard to retire.

Do you get an Australian version of a W2 or some annual income summary for tax purposes, and generally does your profession accurately report income (entertainers, owners, etc.) or is it a little lax being cash heavy. Does Australia tie income to other safety nets, like if you were injured performing, couldn’t work, retire, etc. in other words do you feel secure in this profession?

Any aspirations beyond clubs, like your own photo business? Is there room for performers to take the next step in the industry or very challenging to move on as an employee contractor or just woman generally? Why/why not?

I think these days adult entertainment providers would best to take online platforms serious as a stream of income.

If you get injured at work, best bet is to have saved up enough to carry you through as Im not sure about insurances. Back in the day it was pretty much all cash. But now days there is less and less cash transactions.

Yes I currently have a normal businesses and some online adult projects that Im building up. You can take the stripper out of the club, but you can never take the club out of the stripper...
