Well I don't know anything about phonesex. But I have a few friends that are strippers and dated a few. You are really good looking so if you find a good club you will make good money. I would agree with Twwly.

Hey -- has anyone on here ever stripped or been a phone sex operator? I want to know how much you realistically get paid for either, and what the job's really like... I'm thinking about doing it and I want to know the upsides AND the downsides!
Yes to both.
Stripping: You can make a lot of money. Depends what you look like, depends on the club you work at, depends how good you can hustle and how far you are willing to go.
Phonesex: You can make reasonable money. Depends on the company you work for and their rates. Often not as much as you think.
Downsides. Well, I stopped that "kind" of work because I was beginning to hate men. And by hate, I don't mean "not fancy them very much", but full on standing on top of a tower with an automatic hatred. So obviously that began to seriously affect my relationships with men...to the point where I couldn't have them. I would call that a downside.
I would never do either again.
I have seen a lot of girls in the same area she was in. Just if you decide to do it remember a few things. One save money and make it something that is temp. You can get sucked into it and that will fuck up your life. Also ther are mostly 2 kinds of guys that go to strip clubs, the assholes that want to just see tits and ass and will treat you like meat. Then there are the guys that want to just escape life a bit. These guys can make good regulars and provide a steady income. Also they are normally friendly and will be nice to you. Oh and be picky on where you work that will make all the difference.
thanx for your input

I strip as a hobby, so I can't tell you much about the pay. It probably has to do with the audience; even if the little kids at the playground are enjoying it, for example, they just don't have any money to give.
And you can forget about asking their parents.

Not that I kow any info on ither but I think Twwly has a great point. Most men that are normals at strip clubs are gross and assholes. I have been to one, and I vow neve to go back witout a big group of people I like.

Phone sex has got to be the most BORING thing to do ever. Oh baby. Oh baby. Oh. (ZZzzzzz). Stripping 's definitely better $$, but then it depends where you work. It all comes down to what youre comfortable doing.
Being an online chat girl can be good depending on where you work, but in all of these business you have to put up with asshole men who can be incredibly obnoxious, and often, owners/supervisors/managers who dont necessarily have the most respect for women and will try to rip you off. If you think you can do it, well, then go for it.
One suggestion.. if youre going to get into the sex industry (other than phone sex) , set goals for yourself and save your money. Are you trying to get yourself through school? Do you want to buy a house? Unless you want to make it your lifes career (not recommended) set yourself something to do or a financial place to be for when you leave, cause you cant put it on a resume for a straight job. It can be very addictive to be able to make your own hours and have all kinds of $$ to blow., but not necessarily great if you have other goals your life.
Try it out and see. It may be just what you need right now. Keep your head on straight. 
thanks for a REAL answer ...
Oh, I wanted to add.. there is a group on here for Sex Workers , run by the lovely Voltaire .. if you do end up in the business, its a good place to talk to other women.
By the way, Ive done just about everything in the industry, from pro Dom to online sex chat to phone sex to doing stag shows to crossdresser makeovers etc etc.
If you have any more questions that youmaybe dont feel comfortable posting here, feel free to drop a note in my journal or email.
