This interview gives a fascinating glimpse inside the business of strip clubs, where incredible amounts of cash change hands, often in the form of one-dollar bills.

Retell me the story about what it means to “make it rain.”

That was probably one of my first nights there. One guy sits down nonchalantly and says, “Well, could you do me a favor?” And I said sure. He’s like, “I need to change out $9,000 in ones.” And I go, “Say that one more time?” “Yeah, I need $9,000 in one-dollar bills.”

Happy New Year!
