There are 3,829 adult cabarets nationwide, employing over 500,000 people.
Statistics compiled by ACE show that a single gentlemen's club in a major metropolitan area averages between $10-20 million
per year in gross revenues. A small club in a rural area (Less than 5000 square feet) can generate over a million dollars,
while cities in secondary markets such as Cleveland or Pittsburgh have clubs that gross approximately $2 million per year. The number of major strip clubs nearly
doubled between 1987 and 1992, and by 1997 there were around 3000 clubs nationally. The industry is estimated to be a 15 billion
dollar business, with the annual revenues of strip clubs ranging from $500,000 to over 5 million. (Hanna, 2005; Schlosser,
1997). There are over 60 strips clubs in Nevada currently operating.
For I know the thoughts (My intentions) that I think (to
become part of something) toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace (shalom: NOTHING LACKING, or NOTHING BROKEN)
and not of evil (affliction, sorrow) to give you a future and a hope. (expected end) Then you will call upon Me and go and
pray to Me, and I will listen to you. And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me, with all your heart.
Jeremiah 29:11-13 NKJV
