Inside an OnlyFans empire: Sex, influence and the new American Dream::undefined
Watching their partner have sex with someone else sometimes sparked what they called “classic little jealousy issues,” which Adams said they resolved with “more communication, more growing up.” The money was just too good. And over time, they adopted a self-affirming ideology that framed everything as just business.
i swear this is the exact plot of "Boogie Nights". i wish these young entrepreneurs all the best, but the movie didn't exactly have a happy ending.
56It typically doesn't in real life either.
Once jealousy starts, it's a hard train to stop.

New American dream: insert vegetables into your anus to become a millionaire.

48I hate the "new American Dream" part of the title. Look how far we fallen, as people. We can make things better, but that's hard. So put an banana up your tailpipe for the Internet.

27That was a genuinely interesting read and I can’t quite get over the figures involved. Sure, you hear of people earning big money on only fans but $13 million is wild. Appreciate that’s only a tiny percentage but I’ve seen CEOs of well known companies that take home far less than that per year.
I do wonder how it’s all sustainable though - I guess for the individuals maybe not but as long as there’s a fresh influx of creators and consumers, the company can keep running ad infinitum.
17Same here man. I do feel bad though, for low income people in other countries who are addicted to this cause they can't find someone in real life.
