As I started reading, I was curious about the business model that would allow the clubs to spend this much money, on the basis that they had to recoup it and more within a single night.
They kind of answer that near the end, but I'm still left a bit befuddled. Apparently there's multiple(!) groups of people who will pay $25,000 dollars minimum to sit at a table near Nikki Minaj for an hour?
I can understand (if not condone) the birthday party thing, where you spend millions to get someone famous at your party, as by doing so you are saying "I have so many millions, I can do this ridiculous thing, or buy a famous painting, and still be richer than you". But it seems weird that it's a booming and widespread business model.
