So naturally she thought about becoming a stripper as she hears stories online and things like it's easy money and you can make 300 a night or something or rather.

My concern is obviously the health issue, your in a strip club with lots of smoke, alcohol etc...next thing is that i keep hearing stories about stalkers stalking dancers at night...last thing i want is some big guy comin to my door and bustin it down and etc.

so what's a friend to do?

I haven't read all the replies either, but would like to contribute. 300 a night is a very attempting thing. But rather than the health issues think about what she would think for herself. If it is ok with her, she could try for it but of course some pimps would come over too.

If she is willing to do this, make sure it is a reputable bar with no pimps. The smoke and alchohol is a part of that job
