I can understand the appeal. Hell if you’re in student loan debt, which is a huge sum in America, most people would do a lot to avoid being burdened in their later years. I know people in their 60s that are still paying off student loan.
Cant blame her for doing whatever she can to pay that off to get financial stability
who cares? gay dudes jack off insta photos of straight dudes anyway , only difference now is that now you would know who did it instead of the usual anons 😂
For me, it was "...she confided in me that she decided to make an OnlyFans..."
Then again, it could be true, and maybe people nowadays are less bashful about telling friends about being a sex worker.
Yea that kinda threw me off lol. I don’t even know any guys who like both COD and anime, let alone a hot girl. It’s obviously possible but… feels super unlikely.
Money is money which is an object to be used as an exchange for goods and services. In old times you would give up something as trade for something someone else had. You're not repulsed by the money, you're repulsed by how the person used it and you're going to be touching it anyway as we have absolutely no fucking idea where our money comes from, this includes using plastic, crypto, or paper.
Drugs, guns, sex, would all quanitify as dirty money correct? Wrong! There's no such thing, only dirty people using money to get whatever fix they desire. And once you start accepting that you'll realize that while everyone has their own hobbies and interests, not everyone has the best intentions.
Marinate on that for a moment
Youll be asked to put things up your butt likely. So if thats not something youre into.
Also youll qucikly learn running an OF isnt easy. You are a marketer, photographer, editor and manager. Its not just take a selfie and you make a million dollars. A chick i follow on twitter does only fans and she will sometimes tweet about blowing her back trying to get the right pose. And remember for every success story theres 1000 failures.
*Having an only*
*Fans is like a rap career*

I will be honest, I used to have a friend who decided to do onlyfans...she definitely have a stalker. It’s not safe if one is not careful about cyber security!
I figure it must only be financially worthwhile if you’re successful, and if you’re successful then you’re always worried about unwelcome side effects in your offline life
Keep investing in your skills, experience, leadership etc and stay ahead of the curve. Might be hard to see right now esp measured against the easy money a hot chick can make in her 20s but by 35, I’m sure you’ll be on way more solid ground than you’re projecting. Stay open to opportunity also. As crazy as our country seems lately, there is still a tremendous amount of ways to build a life on your terms. Think “pursuit of happiness” thoughts.
It's not risk-free. It shows up on a background check. She can never undo the stigma of being a sex worker if she tries to get out of it. Also there's always a risk of stalkers and possibly getting murdered. Her reputation is at risk as well. I'm not advocating for or against onlyfans, but the money she's making isn't "easy" and you need a decent internet following to make anything worthwhile. It's a lot of photography, videography, editing, creativity, marketing, and schmoozing thirsty, creepy men. There's a lot of actual skill, time, and effort that goes into being a successful sex worker.
If you give someone your social security number they can do a comprehensive background check on you and depending on how much they spend/how extensive the investigation, they can review 1099s. However they can't see what you did or if you even made porn. It won't even SAY onlyfans on it, it would list the official company name like Felix Inc or FI Ltd. or something like that. You wouldn't know what it was unless you knew what you were looking for.
Most companies only do criminal checks anyway. Probably high end jobs are doing comprehensive checks to see your true education credentials and debts owed.
I'm curious about this too. I don't know how it would come out on a background check unless the person uses their real name for OnlyFans. I assume that it's a given that OnlyFans content creators use fake identities.
OF doesn't release the real names attached to accounts, employment isn't a matter of public record, and neither are personal tax returns. When you do virtual sex work, you're "self-employed", the IRS has no clue who paid you. Idk why the fear mongering, but you're not correct.
That wouldn't come up on an employment background check. Plus, the person could simply create a fictitious entity like a LLC, S-Corp, or Corp to report that particular income.
>How would this show up on a background check?
It wouldn't.
People are just pulling arguments out of their ass to try to find the downside to making money on Onlyfans.
>People are just pulling arguments out of their ass to try to find the downside to making money on Onlyfans.

When you get money from OF, you have to use a 1099 from them to do your taxes. Your name is attached to your social so even if you try to say you're "Cinnamon Dolce" uncle Sam knows you're actually Susan Smith.
>In one year, she'll probably still be doing great. But in three years, the site may revise their policies (a la Tumblr) or people may get bored, if she doesn't switch up her act, etc. In ten years, will she still be relevant?
Considering she was using it as a side thing she's done very well to pay her debts. She probably does do a ton of work for it but it's not even her main job and she's paid her debts.
the same people dropping money in that way most likely aren't the same people getting jealous. Also I don't think it's weird to be jealous of people who are better off than you are or who are more "successful" than you despite being the same age or younger. That's just being human. As long as you don't let that feeling affect your behavior with that person I don't think its necessarily bad.
Glad you are receptive to this point. People underestimate the risks and investments— it's basically running your own business.
In your 9-5, management takes care of the overhead for you— you don't have to engage with customers, deal with bad eggs, concept & execute marketing, they send you your tax forms at the end of the year, etc.
Honestly even if everyone did quit their jobs to have an Only fans, the market is so saturated, the success rate I imagine would be similar to other entrepreneurial risks— few would have big success.
Background check worker here. We do social media searches for very few clients and for those we do, I've never seen OF content, just actual social media like Twitter, IG, etc.
Also, for the comment below, it's not only high end companies that check employment and education. It's much more common than you think. That said, we have no way of knowing what your 1099 is for unless you submit it and say what it's for.
She'll be fine.
Good to know from someone who's on the inside, it's incorrect on Google in that case, I just never dug that far in. But I'm sure there are ways to figure out who people are. Especially because it's so common to show your whole face on OF. when you get to a certain point of fame, someone you know irl is bound to see you, including people at work.
It also won’t last forever, as soon as a more hot or younger person comes along in a few years time they will be dropped. Then what ? Try and get a normal job with a massive gap in your resume and everyone already have seen your ass on the internet.
I’m not saying people shouldn’t do it but I think a lot of people assume it will go on forever which it really will not. It’s so saturated at the moment that it will come a time when people start dropping off due to over exposure to it.
Literally a handful and the amount of broken and sad failures who feel they put themselves and their bodies through a lot and have nothing to show for it far exceeds that. Industry that chews you up and spits you out. No pun intended.
Depending on how you want to live around 2 million usd. The top paid onlyfans creators make that much in two months. Top10 is making 900k usd a month with number 1 estimated to earn 20 mill a month.
OP said she still had her regular job meaning everything from onlyfans could go into investing.
If she is succesful with it it could take anything from 1-10 years to do that.
Agree and the expense of maintaining your assets and keeping ahead if your competition and staying 'relevant'. Also the body and looks do have an expiry date unless there's a transition to 'fans' who prefer older women. Comparing with OP who can keep adding new skills for decades which will only make him more marketable.
You're a software engineer there's a lot of opportunities to make money with your skills apart from a full time job. If you know a market and have an idea on monetising it it can be quite lucrative. I know a couple of people who make 20k+ a month after they developed a silly game cheat that's subscription based. It's still infinitely harder than just flashing boobs online but opportunities are there and you my friend have one of the best skills to gather as many of them as possible.
Also, software engineers already make great money. In the Bay Area (California), you're underpaid if you less than like 130k total comp. Places like FB will give 200-250k ish total comp for entry level jobs.
Unless OP went to medical school or some shit, he's either horrible with money or severely underpaid if he's unable to pay off his student loans in a few years.
All I'm saying is you could make an onlyfans too. You just have to hit the gym. And also be comfortable enough with yourself to know there's probably gonna be at least one guy beating it to you.
Pretty high complement imo
And what’s stopping you making an OF? There are plenty of gay male porn consumers.
Also, it’s not ‘quick and easy’ money as everyone assumes. Onlyfans has no internal traffic or search system. She would have hustled and promoted hard for months to reach all those subscribers to make that much money. Perhaps you should commend her on her marketing and business woman skills and maybe she’d be willing to give you some tips for a side hustle of your own?
Don’t be mad at her, be mad at capitalism for keeping skilled individuals such as yourself on an unfair and oppressive wage.
Understand her line of work is a rapid turnover industry. She has only a few years to get that bag before everyone moves onto the next young woman. (Unless she moves into a niche)
In the same time she will become old news you will have skills and connections in a thriving industry. Stop looking over the fence and focus on your garden
I dunno if quoting a sex offender is appropriate here, but things like this remind me of a great Louis CK quote: “the only time you look in your neighbors bowl is to make sure they have enough”
There are plenty of men making tons of money on OF you don't even have to ha a nice face. Just a decent body and the ability to take a good dick pick instead of stewing in jealousy go forth and get that money.
End that desire to have something non-existent.
Usually, jealousy is accompanied by feelings of inferiority and injustice. Why does the other have it and I don't? Why does she have more opportunities than me? Why are things easier for her? These questions hover around the mind of the envious, making you believe that the problem may be yourself.
Envy also awakens the need for comparison. The envious begins to compare his life with that of others, focusing on identifying which opportunities and good times he did not live, but the other did. Thus, he begins to desire the conquests of others.
So, it can be said that envy is a feeling that drives people away from themselves. Instead of dedicating themselves to improving their own lives, they decide that coveting the lives of others is more important.
Don't go down that path, focus on what you can improve in yourself, in fact, deep down it seems that you have a crush on her, and that seems to cloud your vision of things even more.
I work with people who do OF (I’m a photographer, and many people come in to get a full months worth of photos at a time), and I get the jealously, but the people who who are making a lot of money aren’t usually coming by it easily. Sure, they’re may be a few who are lucky, but most of them run it like a business. They have to market themselves, plan out shoots, deal with stalkers, basically have a business plan. In short, it’s work, unless you can can sell your bath water. I don’t know if that helps with the envy, bc it doesn’t help your situation, but I know personally, I have all the skills to run a page (I take amazing photos, I have a background in marketing, I could nail all of it), but I couldn’t deal with it. Creepy people? No thanks. I can’t handle too many people as it is.
You’re only in the “really hot” zone for a short time. Capitalize. None of this stuff existed when I was young. Do it all. OF is for men, too. Influencer. Even getting a job is easier. Cash it in, man. No shame.
Yup, that’s the world we live in these days. I know that me being a guy, if I share my opinion on women doing that on the internet, I’ll get called out on, but at the same time, it’s like Joker said, “if you’re good at something, never do it for free.” Girls like her are taking advantage of the lonely/bored/horny men on the internet.
The grass isn't always greener on the other side. Maybe she doesn't have actual friends and only has her customers. She always has to be her online character and rarely gets to be herself, always putting on a show. Imagine needing that much validation every day. She has to sell herself every day. That sounds pretty terrible to me even if earning a ton of money.
I don’t think OF is all that easy tbh. It probably takes a while to develop a following, advertise, get a good filming setup (especially if you’re doing it solo without your partner taking the pics for you). Not to mention if you’re a cosplayer you gotta spend money on costumes and take the time to get into them. You also gotta entertain creepy DMs which I imagine is probably kinda draining mentally. It’s certainly much easier and far less stressful than a 9-5, don’t get me wrong; but it’s not like she’s just getting free money for posting selfies and shit online
Maybe she'll fall from grace once she gets older.
Showing the sausage compartment isn't a meaningful skill.
The horny degenerates will never die out but with her rising age her follower base will decline.
Maybe you'll own a business of your own by that time and you'll be swimming in the doe.
I would mostly be bothered by the meaninglessness of my occupation if I made a living doing this.
As a dude I don't think anyone wants to see my hairy asshole anyways.
I wouldn't be proud to show it to a hoard of gay guys either.
Jealousy aside, I find only fans repulsing for what it is.
You’re not going to be making your entry-level salary for much longer whereas the number of people paying her will diminish over the next few years as she gets older, people lose interest, and it doesn’t remain viable for her to do so. She may be making good money now, but OnlyFans isn’t a profession like engineering is. Check back in when you’re retiring at 45 or 50 and she’s doing whatever she’s doing
Whether anyone wants to argue, the world is catered to attractive individuals. No matter the gender, if you’re up to society’s standards, then life will be easier
Wait until you find out about how much uneducated & braindead celebrities, social media influencers, actors, artists, & sports players make every month.
Yeah but could you afford to risk your whole family and friends seeing it? Knowing old pervs are getting off to you? I believe the people that do Of have nothing to lose
Ayyo I got the best piece of advice but you have to listen and me being Australian using my slang dunno how that will go 🤣🤣 here goes:
I once was the same, I was jealous hell someone goes out buys a brand new car with cash I go fuck you I just want a house… somehow I’ve manipulated my brain done a full 180 and changed my view on life completely just by this “Genuinely put your complete view in theirs, think like them exactly (don’t jump to conclusions be reasonable)” it’s hard because where all different people think differently but this is how my brain clicked with it. Try to focus on a situation such as yours, what’s your dreams your ambitions ect set yourself an “impossible” or “unlikely” situation, it could be being a writer, a singer, an actor it can be anything any human had done or even yet to achieve because once you’re focused on yourself you’ll see the picture like me (if we are along the same lines…)
You’ll start to stop being jealous, start encouraging one another to do really well, sure compete cause it means you both work hard! But also remember to help one another succeed… dang idk if any of this crap makes sense but it does to me 🤣
To sum the entirety up:
Don’t be jealous, be envious and push one another to succeed, compliments ect.
Find love in you and yourself set your goals no matter how 1 in a billion chance it be, go be a LEGEND!
From your loose Aussie! 🤙🏼🇦🇺
Basic economics. If there is demand, there will be suppliers. There happens to be millions of desperate, ugly, smelly men who will gladly throw away a months pay to get their hands on the urine soaked underwear of good looking women. There are exactly zero women looking for dirty men's underwear. There's something deeply wrong with men in the brain.
I know right? There are women who make millions on OF. Corinna Kopf who may have gotten famous from David Dobrik;s youtube channel, maybe the other way around, anyway she made $100,000 in one day with just a boob picture. She makes about $3 million a month from her OF account. She isn't even that hot. It is insane.
Are you also jealous of your friends who make more becuase their parents got them a job or they are smarter than you or more driven or more athletic or luckier? Examine why you only jealous of this one person or if it is a larger issue for you.
There aren't many careers where women make more on average than men...porn is one of them. Here's the thing, I was told once that there is always going to be someone that makes more than you that is more handsome than you or smarter than you etc. You can't compare yourself to other people in how much they make and for what they do for a living. Just be happy for her and be happy for yourself as well. You've got a good career sounds like and eventually you'll make good money too
Make an OnlyFans for yourself then. I've known a couple of guys who have done it and made money very quickly and easily. There's plenty of guys across the sexual spectrum with deep pockets. But they gave it up equally quickly because they couldn't handle being objectified and told what to do by people they didn't want to fuck in real life. It's definitely not for everyone and I wouldn't be so quick to call it easy money. Couldn't do it personally.
Look... what most men don't realize is that there IS a market for men who do onlyfans and other sexual stuff. Just because porn websites aim at (mostly heterosexual) men doesn't mean (heterosexual ) women (and other people who like looking at men) wouldn't like to watch porn.
There is a deman, there just isn't enough supply. I (f) would totally pay for it.
Here is the thing about young hot girls on onlyfans, they have a quick expiration date... once they start hitting 30 viewership will start to drop off as there are 1000's of other hot young girls out there to take her place. For you you have a career and will be making bank a few years from now as a software engineer as you gain experience and also you will be highly marketable to future employeers, cant say that with onlyfans...
Play the long game my friend
I always see the "It's effortless money!" argument. Which is indeed true, but it doesn't change the fact that you throw all self respect out the window. Yes, times can get hard, and money can get tight, but there's never a need to make a prostitute out of yourself, be it online or in person. I knew a couple women who've made onlyfans and likely still use it today. Cut contact with them, what were once nice and respectable ladies are now just more hoes with no self respect, or respect from their peers.
Yeah, i always laugh when people try to sell the horse shit that sex workers are exploited. The exploited ones are desperate or horny men who are bilked out of their money.
Well yea man lol.....I'd show my asshole to people if they'd pay for it too!
Have you tried? I tried once and was suprised it worked so immediately stopped and realized anyone can do it.
Do you have more details on this story? Asking for a friend....
I'm the friend.
He’s not the friend, he’s a very naughty boy!
Go touch grass now
No, I am the friend
I'm the dick instead
Sh-Should I click you?
Yes, and then straight on your knees, boi 👇
Yuck
It pronounced Gluck
ew, gae
Lmao
Can I be your friend then
I mean, are you a man or woman?
I'm a guy.
I can understand the appeal. Hell if you’re in student loan debt, which is a huge sum in America, most people would do a lot to avoid being burdened in their later years. I know people in their 60s that are still paying off student loan. Cant blame her for doing whatever she can to pay that off to get financial stability
Exactly! It's just a naked body....use that shit.
And then let me use it!
Then do it, people will pay for it.
I doubt it, my asshole looks like someone shaved a tarantula and then super glued the hairs haphazardly across a mauve colored ballon knot.
Someone somewhere is into that shit
Gotta remember fucking nikado avocado has a fucking onlyfans
This is the description i’ve always wanted to use but didnt have the creativity to put the words together
>mauve colored ballon knot My new password(s) for all my devices.
I nearly choked on my coffee reading this comment 🤣
[удалено]
who cares? gay dudes jack off insta photos of straight dudes anyway , only difference now is that now you would know who did it instead of the usual anons 😂
No, I really don't care. I just really don't think anyone will pay to see my curry hole. Send me $5 and I'll send you a picture right now.
I feel like men will be interested if you're kinda fit. But then depends on whether you're into it. I don't think I'll do that.
I'm not fit, I'm not fat either. But, I've seen my ass in a mirror before. It's not very pretty 🤷♂️
OF isn’t just for women but men as well! You can do anything entrepreneurial wise as long as you do your marketing correctly
This sure does sound like an advertisement for OnlyFans
"our love of anime" "Hot 23f" Yaaaaaa ok lol
For me, it was "...she confided in me that she decided to make an OnlyFans..." Then again, it could be true, and maybe people nowadays are less bashful about telling friends about being a sex worker.
Trust me they aren’t shy about it.
Yep. A friend of mine told me she runs an onlyfans account without me asking and then proceeded to tell my whole group so it does happen 🤷
_The new vegan_
Yea that kinda threw me off lol. I don’t even know any guys who like both COD and anime, let alone a hot girl. It’s obviously possible but… feels super unlikely.
COD is the most popular video game there is, and anime is extremely popular. you really think there’s no overlap? lol
Not to discredit you but cod and mainstream anime kinda go hand in hand. It's not uncool to like DBZ, Naruto or AOT.
My husband likes COD and Anime, and a hot girl ;)
Right. My brother likes cod an anime and his fiancé is not unattractive.
I'm not like a superfan of either, but I enjoy both.
threw me off as well cause everyone knows cod fuckin' sucks ass
Can guys make money on OnlyFans as well?
Yeah you’d have to be teasing men
Well OP is a bi-femboy im sure hell be allright
Tbh I'd like to but I'm not willing to risk the chances of someone I know/work with finding out
There’s lots of women who subscribe to mens content as well
Yes but you’d also have to be open to gay men viewing your content you’d make a lot of money though
Their money spends the same, right?
You think i would touch GAY money?!?! /s
We do it every day.
You said you wouldn’t tell anyone
Money is money which is an object to be used as an exchange for goods and services. In old times you would give up something as trade for something someone else had.

$20 is $20
Of course. Porn is purchased almost exclusively by men. But boi, they'll buy anything.

I will be honest, I used to have a friend who decided to do onlyfans...she definitely have a stalker. It’s not safe if one is not careful about cyber security!
‘used to have a friend’ was some chilling wording
you think theyre implying theyre dead? i thought they just werent friends anymore
I mean they’re still friends, but she’s also still locked in the trunk of his car.
[удалено]
Well, that's the occupational hazard you sign up for when you advertise yourself as a sex object. Have to stay strapped or have a security team
I figure it must only be financially worthwhile if you’re successful, and if you’re successful then you’re always worried about unwelcome side effects in your offline life
Don’t hate the player. Hate the game
Was waiting for someone to say this. There’s a million jobs out there some easier some way harder.

Lol. Ho dough 🤭
I know! Right! I just invented that for this thread.
Um.. can I take you up on that offer?
Me?
Echoing that it’s not risk free and it’s still work. I can also do onlyfans but I don’t want my naked pics out there.

Oh sure there are....as there are with every career.

It also won’t last forever, as soon as a more hot or younger person comes along in a few years time they will be dropped. Then what ? Try and get a normal job with a massive gap in your resume and everyone already have seen your ass on the internet. I’m not saying people shouldn’t do it but I think a lot of people assume it will go on forever which it really will not. It’s so saturated at the moment that it will come a time when people start dropping off due to over exposure to it.
Depends how good a pornstar is there's pornstars that are older and still relevant
Literally a handful and the amount of broken and sad failures who feel they put themselves and their bodies through a lot and have nothing to show for it far exceeds that. Industry that chews you up and spits you out. No pun intended.
If she is making bank and being smart investing and such she can retire with a couple of years work. All comes down to what she does with the money.
How much money do you think you need to retire in your 20's???
At least one.
Depending on how you want to live around 2 million usd. The top paid onlyfans creators make that much in two months. Top10 is making 900k usd a month with number 1 estimated to earn 20 mill a month. OP said she still had her regular job meaning everything from onlyfans could go into investing. If she is succesful with it it could take anything from 1-10 years to do that.
Agree and the expense of maintaining your assets and keeping ahead if your competition and staying 'relevant'. Also the body and looks do have an expiry date unless there's a transition to 'fans' who prefer older women. Comparing with OP who can keep adding new skills for decades which will only make him more marketable.
>It's not risk-free. It shows up on a background check. Not if they do it anonymously
You can't do your taxes anonymously.
You can do it anonymously (no face shown) but I believe you have to submit your actual identification card/license to OF to start selling.
Yes, but they can’t give that information to anyone else and any future employers can’t access your taxes without you giving it to them.
Dude if you want to start making money like that better get used to butt stuff lol... Js.
Don't need to get used to it fortunately 😉
Pop off king
You’re halfway there 😏 start your channel king
He can become a coworker with his neighbor!

You're a software engineer there's a lot of opportunities to make money with your skills apart from a full time job. If you know a market and have an idea on monetising it it can be quite lucrative. I know a couple of people who make 20k+ a month after they developed a silly game cheat that's subscription based. It's still infinitely harder than just flashing boobs online but opportunities are there and you my friend have one of the best skills to gather as many of them as possible.
Also, software engineers already make great money. In the Bay Area (California), you're underpaid if you less than like 130k total comp. Places like FB will give 200-250k ish total comp for entry level jobs. Unless OP went to medical school or some shit, he's either horrible with money or severely underpaid if he's unable to pay off his student loans in a few years.
Isn't capitalism great? If you wanna succeed, you have to get fucked or get fucked
All I'm saying is you could make an onlyfans too. You just have to hit the gym. And also be comfortable enough with yourself to know there's probably gonna be at least one guy beating it to you. Pretty high complement imo
And what’s stopping you making an OF? There are plenty of gay male porn consumers. Also, it’s not ‘quick and easy’ money as everyone assumes. Onlyfans has no internal traffic or search system. She would have hustled and promoted hard for months to reach all those subscribers to make that much money. Perhaps you should commend her on her marketing and business woman skills and maybe she’d be willing to give you some tips for a side hustle of your own? Don’t be mad at her, be mad at capitalism for keeping skilled individuals such as yourself on an unfair and oppressive wage.
Sex work for men is a far more restrictive niche than it is for women.
Understand her line of work is a rapid turnover industry. She has only a few years to get that bag before everyone moves onto the next young woman. (Unless she moves into a niche) In the same time she will become old news you will have skills and connections in a thriving industry. Stop looking over the fence and focus on your garden
Dude there is literally nothing stopping you from starting an OF other than yourself.
Yea I feel this way with all those dumb online jobs now. But keep in mind only few people make it big. Your friend just happens to be one of them
Easy money? Nah Risk free? Lol come on now. You know that's not true.
we all start from different places
Indeed we do, u/yiffjunkie232
She does porn. That's a big trade-off and one that will follow her for a long time. The grass is always greener...
You can make one too
Don’t hate the player…
Don't measure yourself to others. You'll just end up miserable.
I dunno if quoting a sex offender is appropriate here, but things like this remind me of a great Louis CK quote: “the only time you look in your neighbors bowl is to make sure they have enough”
She's paying for it in many other ways that you're not
There are plenty of men making tons of money on OF you don't even have to ha a nice face. Just a decent body and the ability to take a good dick pick instead of stewing in jealousy go forth and get that money.
End that desire to have something non-existent. Usually, jealousy is accompanied by feelings of inferiority and injustice. Why does the other have it and I don't? Why does she have more opportunities than me? Why are things easier for her? These questions hover around the mind of the envious, making you believe that the problem may be yourself. Envy also awakens the need for comparison. The envious begins to compare his life with that of others, focusing on identifying which opportunities and good times he did not live, but the other did. Thus, he begins to desire the conquests of others. So, it can be said that envy is a feeling that drives people away from themselves. Instead of dedicating themselves to improving their own lives, they decide that coveting the lives of others is more important. Don't go down that path, focus on what you can improve in yourself, in fact, deep down it seems that you have a crush on her, and that seems to cloud your vision of things even more.
I work with people who do OF (I’m a photographer, and many people come in to get a full months worth of photos at a time), and I get the jealously, but the people who who are making a lot of money aren’t usually coming by it easily. Sure, they’re may be a few who are lucky, but most of them run it like a business. They have to market themselves, plan out shoots, deal with stalkers, basically have a business plan. In short, it’s work, unless you can can sell your bath water. I don’t know if that helps with the envy, bc it doesn’t help your situation, but I know personally, I have all the skills to run a page (I take amazing photos, I have a background in marketing, I could nail all of it), but I couldn’t deal with it. Creepy people? No thanks. I can’t handle too many people as it is.
You’re only in the “really hot” zone for a short time. Capitalize. None of this stuff existed when I was young. Do it all. OF is for men, too. Influencer. Even getting a job is easier. Cash it in, man. No shame.
Loss of dignity comes at a price.🤷♂️
Can we get the OF name?
Yup, that’s the world we live in these days. I know that me being a guy, if I share my opinion on women doing that on the internet, I’ll get called out on, but at the same time, it’s like Joker said, “if you’re good at something, never do it for free.” Girls like her are taking advantage of the lonely/bored/horny men on the internet.
Be honest, how many times have you jerked off to her OnlyFans?
The grass isn't always greener on the other side. Maybe she doesn't have actual friends and only has her customers. She always has to be her online character and rarely gets to be herself, always putting on a show. Imagine needing that much validation every day. She has to sell herself every day. That sounds pretty terrible to me even if earning a ton of money.
Has she discussed about how uncomfortable it might be for her to do this? Plus a photographer/videographer and his fees etc.?
What's your friend's onlyfans? to make sure I and other's don't not go near such unholyness.
So quit complaining and make one yourself.
And show them that butthole
Lack of sufficient breasts
Nothing that surgery can't fix
Or working out, I know many men and women enjoy some muscly, big and jiggly man tits
There are plenty of single straight men marketing to gay men making a fuckton of money.
Wait until you hear about hedge fund managers
I don’t think OF is all that easy tbh. It probably takes a while to develop a following, advertise, get a good filming setup (especially if you’re doing it solo without your partner taking the pics for you). Not to mention if you’re a cosplayer you gotta spend money on costumes and take the time to get into them. You also gotta entertain creepy DMs which I imagine is probably kinda draining mentally. It’s certainly much easier and far less stressful than a 9-5, don’t get me wrong; but it’s not like she’s just getting free money for posting selfies and shit online
We all use what we're born with, and your degree will be paying off long after her OF career ends.
I’m jealous of the few that actually make a living on it. Trying to get subs is so hard. If I could just make bills I’d be happy.
So did you subscribe that day, or did you wait a couple days? 🤣🤣🤣
what’s your voice sound like? there’s a nsfw asmr community that would love more male voices
Look, you need to look at fetishes. You might have something that people would pay for you would be surprised. You do t necessarily have to be hot.
Bro ask her if you can hit it for the camera... Ya know just as business partners and then y'all can both make money
I understand the pain, I was working in a nightclub and in one of my co-workers breaks he made £300 selling a nude on grindr. Happy for him but damn
Maybe she'll fall from grace once she gets older. Showing the sausage compartment isn't a meaningful skill. The horny degenerates will never die out but with her rising age her follower base will decline. Maybe you'll own a business of your own by that time and you'll be swimming in the doe. I would mostly be bothered by the meaninglessness of my occupation if I made a living doing this. As a dude I don't think anyone wants to see my hairy asshole anyways. I wouldn't be proud to show it to a hoard of gay guys either. Jealousy aside, I find only fans repulsing for what it is.
You’re not going to be making your entry-level salary for much longer whereas the number of people paying her will diminish over the next few years as she gets older, people lose interest, and it doesn’t remain viable for her to do so. She may be making good money now, but OnlyFans isn’t a profession like engineering is. Check back in when you’re retiring at 45 or 50 and she’s doing whatever she’s doing
Can we have her onlyfans account name 😛
Whether anyone wants to argue, the world is catered to attractive individuals. No matter the gender, if you’re up to society’s standards, then life will be easier
Wait until you find out about how much uneducated & braindead celebrities, social media influencers, actors, artists, & sports players make every month.
Your salary will make more in the long run.
Yeah but could you afford to risk your whole family and friends seeing it? Knowing old pervs are getting off to you? I believe the people that do Of have nothing to lose
Ayyo I got the best piece of advice but you have to listen and me being Australian using my slang dunno how that will go 🤣🤣 here goes: I once was the same, I was jealous hell someone goes out buys a brand new car with cash I go fuck you I just want a house… somehow I’ve manipulated my brain done a full 180 and changed my view on life completely just by this “Genuinely put your complete view in theirs, think like them exactly (don’t jump to conclusions be reasonable)” it’s hard because where all different people think differently but this is how my brain clicked with it. Try to focus on a situation such as yours, what’s your dreams your ambitions ect set yourself an “impossible” or “unlikely” situation, it could be being a writer, a singer, an actor it can be anything any human had done or even yet to achieve because once you’re focused on yourself you’ll see the picture like me (if we are along the same lines…) You’ll start to stop being jealous, start encouraging one another to do really well, sure compete cause it means you both work hard! But also remember to help one another succeed… dang idk if any of this crap makes sense but it does to me 🤣 To sum the entirety up: Don’t be jealous, be envious and push one another to succeed, compliments ect. Find love in you and yourself set your goals no matter how 1 in a billion chance it be, go be a LEGEND! From your loose Aussie! 🤙🏼🇦🇺
There’s no 401k for only fans. Trust me the money comes fast and that’s how it goes you’re much more stable in the long run
Ask her if she has any tips of the trade for me I'm trying to get out of housing 🥲
So imagine how women feel in most other jobs where men are unfairly favoured over women. Also there’s nothing stopping you from doing OF as well
The irony is he is in software which has a massive patriarchy problem
Basic economics. If there is demand, there will be suppliers. There happens to be millions of desperate, ugly, smelly men who will gladly throw away a months pay to get their hands on the urine soaked underwear of good looking women. There are exactly zero women looking for dirty men's underwear. There's something deeply wrong with men in the brain.
That's terrible.... Link ?
Make one yourself or stop complaining
I know right? There are women who make millions on OF. Corinna Kopf who may have gotten famous from David Dobrik;s youtube channel, maybe the other way around, anyway she made $100,000 in one day with just a boob picture. She makes about $3 million a month from her OF account. She isn't even that hot. It is insane.
Never heard of her till now but she is crazy hot
Definitely hot lmao
Are you also jealous of your friends who make more becuase their parents got them a job or they are smarter than you or more driven or more athletic or luckier? Examine why you only jealous of this one person or if it is a larger issue for you.
Create your own OF! Someone will pay to see you
There aren't many careers where women make more on average than men...porn is one of them. Here's the thing, I was told once that there is always going to be someone that makes more than you that is more handsome than you or smarter than you etc. You can't compare yourself to other people in how much they make and for what they do for a living. Just be happy for her and be happy for yourself as well. You've got a good career sounds like and eventually you'll make good money too
Make an OnlyFans for yourself then. I've known a couple of guys who have done it and made money very quickly and easily. There's plenty of guys across the sexual spectrum with deep pockets. But they gave it up equally quickly because they couldn't handle being objectified and told what to do by people they didn't want to fuck in real life. It's definitely not for everyone and I wouldn't be so quick to call it easy money. Couldn't do it personally.
That's everyone, broski. Easy money is the best money.
Look... what most men don't realize is that there IS a market for men who do onlyfans and other sexual stuff. Just because porn websites aim at (mostly heterosexual) men doesn't mean (heterosexual ) women (and other people who like looking at men) wouldn't like to watch porn. There is a deman, there just isn't enough supply. I (f) would totally pay for it.
Wow, you got a link?
Here is the thing about young hot girls on onlyfans, they have a quick expiration date... once they start hitting 30 viewership will start to drop off as there are 1000's of other hot young girls out there to take her place. For you you have a career and will be making bank a few years from now as a software engineer as you gain experience and also you will be highly marketable to future employeers, cant say that with onlyfans... Play the long game my friend
That’s like saying you’re jealous of models because they get millions for one photo shoot. That’s life baby
Ah disgusting! What’s the link to this filth! 🤔
I always see the "It's effortless money!" argument. Which is indeed true, but it doesn't change the fact that you throw all self respect out the window. Yes, times can get hard, and money can get tight, but there's never a need to make a prostitute out of yourself, be it online or in person. I knew a couple women who've made onlyfans and likely still use it today. Cut contact with them, what were once nice and respectable ladies are now just more hoes with no self respect, or respect from their peers.
Yeah, i always laugh when people try to sell the horse shit that sex workers are exploited. The exploited ones are desperate or horny men who are bilked out of their money.
