I’ve been a naughty blogger

Wednesday, December 17th, 2008

And have missed a few SuperStripper inspiring posts this week.

In all honesty, I have been enjoying my time off, working on other projects, and relying on my other streams of income.

I’m not saying this to try to impress you, but rather to impress upon you that anyone can do what I am doing. Its not easy, or instantaneous, but it is one method to walk away from this industry The Victor.

Money Rules

Monday, December 1st, 2008

Casey from www.mydancerdiary.com gave me a writing award!  Funny, I don’t consider myself much of a writer.  I always hated creative writing, but could ace the persuasive essay.  Hmmm…go figure!

Some interesting headlines I saw today.  The Recession is Officially Here. No way, really?  I could have told you that in January. I did the math today: my annual gross lapdance sales are down 20% from 2007. Also Depression 2009:What Will it Look Like? This one is a longer article, but I found it intriguing and very realistic.

Making Money During a Recession

Tuesday, September 9th, 2008

want to make a 21% return in 6-8 weeks?

I’ve started a study group with some of my close personal friends.  We even have a papertrade account at ThinkorSwim.  It’s fake money, but real life lessons.  We started it with $3000 which is a very realistic starting point for most people.  Shoot me a myspace message or email at azavalon@hotmail.com if you would like to join my study group.

I do this for real in one of my own brokerage accounts.  It is an income strategy called the Iron Condor.  For those of you who have absolutely no clue just look at the following chart.  As long as the graph stays in between the green lines, we make $420 on our $2000 bet.

Recession Proof your body

Strippers urged to ‘recession proof’ bodies

09:53 AM PT, Apr 30 2008

Yesterday I got a call from a public relations firm that represents a plastic surgeon. He is going to  strip club dressing rooms and giving Vegas dancers a combination sales pitch and motivational lecture on how to “recession proof” their bodies. Ah, Vegas.

I asked if this jargon meant he was trying to sell lots of boob jobs? But, of course, I wasn’t thinking. That particular surgical intervention has already taken place for many dancers in the topless bars of Vegas. So, in fact, this surgeon offers a far wider range of cosmetic surgical options. I am hoping to go along with the plastic surgeon next week as he gives such a speech at a topless bar.

Avalon’s State of the Stripper Address Part 1

Thursday, January 3rd, 2008

I got a few emails today from my stripper friends from far off, cold, icy lands like Pennysylvania and Minnesota wondering if the Arizona girls are banking down here for the Fiesta Bowl and if it was worth the trip.  Then Christie’s housemom Jayne and I shared a laugh over the twenty SubsistenceStrippers who showed up at Christie’s last night because they haven’t worked in a month and their rent is 3 days past due.

So, as a follow up to yesterday’s discussion I would like to discuss my predictions of what is going to happen to our business over the next year or two. 

Short and Sweet

Wednesday, January 2nd, 2008

I’ve been riveted to my computer screen all morning watching the stock market tank and my brokerage account soar.  Its a good feeling to know that you have the ability to keep your head above water in a sinking ship.

2008 is going to be different.  Whether one perceives it as good or bad is their prerogative.  The recession has already hit Arizona, and is predicted to last longer here than other parts of the country.  Feels just like San Fran after the dot com bust.  Too bad I don’t work with DJ John anymore and Christie’s won’t let us do shots of Jaeger to pass the time.  Ah, not worth it conidering the new DUI law (1st offense is10 days in jail, and a Breathalyzer lock on your car)
