What are the highest grossing nightclubs in America? The fact that people are once again starting to waste insane amounts of money every weekend at a nightclub is a sure sign that the American economy has recovered from the recession. If you own a popular club in a major US city, you pretty much have a license to print money. What other business can buy a bottle of alcohol for $50 then immediately re-sell it for $600? What other business charges its customers $50 just for the privilege of entering the establishment to spend more money? As the owner of a nightclub, if you can keep the bottles flowing, the music pumping and the crowds lining up, you will be a very happy person and your bank account will get huge. Now I understand how the richest DJs in the world can demand $100-200k for a single set. But out of all the clubs in America, which make the most money every year? Out of the top 100 grossing nightclubs, 25 are located in California, with 15 in Los Angeles alone. 22 of the clubs are located in Las Vegas, 10 are in New York City and five are in Chicago. The rest are scattered around the country. Have you been to any of the clubs listed below? Do you think they are worth all the money they're earning? After seeing the insane amounts of money regular nightclubs earn, I'm dying to know how much highest grossing strip clubs earn…
