what would they have to do in addition? Maybe: have good business skills, networking skills, be independent, be in the right position to spot the right opportunities at the right time?
You’d be surprised how much work goes into operating with that many subscribers. Top funnel, attrition, constant harassment, stolen content, fan requests, just to name some obvious ones.
I think it’s much easier to be a high paid technologist than it is to be a high paying model. Both are difficult, no doubt, but there are vastly, if not infinitely many more models who are barely scraping by earning almost nothing.
I knew of one “talent” agency that was trying to get early on the Instagram model phase who had employed no fewer than 100 absolutely stunning girls who each were barely averaging a couple thousand followers. At least as a no name at FAANG I would have a cushy salary.
yeah it is, I either use their exact subscribers count or estimate it based on the posts / like ratio.
also accounting for possible tips by their fans.
Belle told that she earns $500k/mo in 2019ish so $760k nowadays is very possible imo.
thanks for commenting tho, I went to sleep once I posted this and it made blood of many people very hot. chill out yall, it’s just cool stats for curious minds out there
"Creators in the United States will receive an IRS Form 1099 if they have earned more than $600 USD in the previous tax year." https://onlyfans.com/help/3/16/70
This is something that frequently comes up around sex work. For legal work, it’s the same as any other gig/contract job (i.e. the organization is responsible for reporting, the worker is responsible for filing and paying). For decriminalized work (where it exists, it’s reasonably safe to assume that it’s not filed, unless there’s specific provisions). For criminalized work, it’s safe to assume it’s untaxed.
And without trying to be too nose up in the air about it, everyone should probably be able to draw these conclusions from their familiarity with other mixed-legal markets (e.g. cannabis).
As far as the IRS’s perspective, as far as they’re concerned they can’t especially scrutinize anything that isn’t federally recognized. So it’s highly likely they pay closer attention to income for (say) cam models than (say) brothel workers in the counties in NV with legal brothels. But it’s also pretty likely that those brothers in NV at least encourage if not verify their employees’ compliance.
With all of that said, while I don’t have a strong stance on legalization vs decriminalization (and I defer to my sex worker friends and peers on the subject), legalization is a clear net benefit for bean counting purposes.
Some of the numbers seem to not make sense. For example, model A has 4k subscribers and $0 estimated MMR, while model B has 1.5k subscribers and $17k estimated MMR.
This is incredible! The chiasm between him and 99% of people on Earth, really mind boggling that he can make so much money like that. He seems to have his head quite well on his shoulders too.
When I hear "model" I think of someone who models for things like clothing, jewelry, accessories, and so on. If your idea of model is cam girl plunging phallic objects in all variety of orifices then that probably says more about you than it does about the commenter.
By definition (or at least by a definition I recognize), model is a person or thing used as an example to follow or imitate. Personally, I don't really care, but I can see why it might be difficult for some to accept some of the performers as models.
Not at all trying to dehumanize anyone. Just don’t think pornography should be ubiqitous on the internet. A simple “adult models” would have been better. I don’t want my 7 year old daughter to search top paid models and end up finding this list of models.
Why are other high paid models who flaunt their sex appeal appropriate role models?
Let me be more specific: why is someone posing in a bikini or advertising Carl’s Jr. more appropriate than someone cooking dinner in a short skirt?
I’m sorry that your 7 year old is exposed to sexuality earlier than you feel comfortable with. That’s surely tough to navigate. But it’s not restricted to explicitly designated porn.
So many of these, you have to pay $$$ set by the artist to be a subscriber. Hence, even a few thousand subs will net tens of thousands in monthly income.
I don’t understand how they come up with the tips estimate.
I agree with this assessment. I'm not entirely sure how this is something that would be of value to this community unless there are far more sex workers that lurk here.
I can't put my finger on it but it feels (to me personally) kind of creepy in a way that I can't accurately describe.
I suppose one question I would ask is: How would one use this data and for what purpose?

Meanwhile Nakedbakers has 174,386 subscribers and $0 MRR.
But...uhh...where do these estimates come from?
I was surprised these values were not higher.
It's frustrating that luck is such a huge component of life quality.
Those who do grab a spot at the tail end of the power distribution work at it almost literally constantly.
Obviously luck does play a role, but that applies as much to native intelligence as it does to... other assets.

If this is accurate, several of these "models" are making millions each year. Belle Delphine is earning over $9MM a year ($764,736.00 MRR).
