I really don't think it's extreme for a server at a restaurant like Earls to end up with $400 a week in tips. That puts you at $20k in unclaimed income by the end of the year. It's not a small amount of money.

I also know several good looking women, who work at bars, and earn more like $60k a year in tips.
You know what they are pumping up their numbers they are not making that much. For every good shift there is a bad shift. They do not make that high number consistantly.
Yes $400 a week in tips is not that high I made that. But that is a big leap to $60K a year. That would mean that server would have to sell over $1.2 million in a year and that is not happening.
Those girls who say they make over $60K a year in a bar will make a few hundred in a good night but they only get 2 of those nights a week, the rest are way less. If they work in a club that is busy for 4-5 shifts a week what club in town is that? Is there a club in town busy 4-5 nights a week?
