.....and if you let yourself get caught up in "other activities" that happen there then it can surely take a quick down turn.

I worked with a guy who lost his life savings AND went bankrupt trying to open a shoe show. Here in ATL you have to have a current lease on your unit to be considered for a liquor license. Apparently there is a LOT of red tape to sell booze in that particular environment. He stayed open for less than a year and had quite a battle to sell booze, which never happened/led to the demise.
I remember he said he could have easily opened a bar, but the combo of girls + booze was more difficult for some reason. Make sure to look into that caveat if you give it a go.

assume your girls pay you for the privilege of dancing at your place. you have to compete with all the other clubs to get hotties, so you can't charge them *that* much. Even if you charge cover at the door, that sounds to me like fairly minimal profits. with no alcohol...
