I’m an 18yo out of high school. I don’t really know what to do with my life going forward, but I know further education isn’t for me. I haven’t found many jobs going for people my age and I know OF creators can make a lot of money if they doing it correctly. I’m curious if 1. It’s worth the trouble? 2. It’s looked down upon by those in the nsfw community and 3. If anyone would actually sub to me if I did set it up. Happy to chat, discuss it, answer questions and have a general discussion. I’ve also posted some pics of me on my profile if you want to have a look x

    Be aware that the vast majority of people on OF make little to no money, ever. A handful might make a real career out of it but from what I understand it’s a real grind, uploading content every day. Talking to and interacting with subscribers for many hours a day. Lots of time spent in promotion across several different platforms, editing, etc.

    I’ve heard stories of people receiving abuse because someone messaged them in the early hours of the morning, while they were asleep and didn’t get a response. Anyone you know can easily get your pictures and show them to friends and family or prospective partners out of vindictiveness.

    Like, all power to you if you want to do it, but it’s not the utopia of free money and selling bath water except for maybe a handful of people out of literally tens of thousands of people grinding it out for pennies.
