This would make a bad ass movie
-
Shout out to Steve for being a proper leader and saving his employees from hardship. Not many people would do that!! Mark of a man with integrity even though his business was a bit shady.
-
Steve was a real one and a smart one..paid their fees, no one ratted or tried to hurt him to save their own tails, closed it up and walked off in to the sunset. He still had mega millions. Hey...give it up for Jackie, she stood 10 toes down for Steve and crew.

Shout out to Steve for being a real one
-
This needs to be a MOVIE!!! The Gold Club is iconic
-
200+ girls on the floor? That's insane. 🤯
-
Netflix needs to make a doc on this
-
Good on her, she looks back at her experiences as a time well enjoyed. Love to see it! Steve is an absolute G, seriously.
-
working as 'personal' security there from 1997-1999 i can tell you it was a wild place!
-
Steve did what no celebrities that frequented his club would never do. Nice work, pal. Hard thing to do.
-
She seems so down to earth and normal for a dancer who partied. Good for her. the experience was worth it.
-
Steve's THE MAN! Much respect, he really loved and cared about his crew.
-
She is 44 years old and aged beautifully
-
I like how she reflects on her experience with no regrets. Probably in part that is due to Steve, I can’t say I’ve known many bosses like that!
-
The fact that we get free videos from VICE on YouTube is priceless ... Keeping education and knowledge alive. 👍👍👍
-
Steves a 🐐 No business owner in America today would even consider taking on the court costs for all his employees.
-
Wow, hearing this makes it seem so glamorous, so exciting and fun, and the fact that she was stated as the number one girl by the club owner, made 6 figures a year, upwards of 400k a year is a very high paying job. I don't care what anyone says, that's a damn good income where you can build any type of life you want especially in the 90s that kind of money was unheard of. Lucky lucky girl. She worked hard for it and it's commendable. Good for her.

What literally blew up the strip club industry in Atlanta was Motley Crue. When they mentioned tattletales, everyone had to go there. And the Gold Club is only one mile from tattletales. The gold club was a very high-end strip club. I knew several lawyers and real estate developers that I worked with that used to go there all the time.
-
Using disco music in the background to describe a club from the mid 90's is really throwing me off.
-
The 80's and the 90's was an amazing time to be alive.
