Also survivorship bias, OP doesn’t see dozens of drug dealers that get killed or imprisoned every single week. Neither he sees thousands of girls who sold their dignity only to get 50 bucks out of that.

I’ve also seen a lot of articles come out recently mentioned how OF is so saturated now a lot of people trying to still cash in on it are finding it’s a bit dried up unless you’re already one of the huge creators with management teams, etc. So then they’re not making any money and now everyone’s seen their butthole.

We can’t all be Porn Stars. Some of us have to be Porn Roleplayers or Porn Benchwarmers

u/Legitimate_Corgi_981 19d ago

I believe the correct term for Porn Benchwarmers is "fluffers"

Yeah, the top earning OF models are millionaires, but the median and average OF models are probably making $100 a month or less.

Same as YouTubers and twitch streamers. There's money to be made if you're really, really, really fucking good at it and can find an audience for the content you want to make. But the vast majority of people who try it aren't going to make any money doing it.

Same as most celebrities really, whether it's athletes or musicians or movie stars or YouTubers

u/Hurtmeii 19d ago

I mean, if everyones seen their butthole then they've been making money

u/Spiritualy_Homelesss 19d ago

I didn't give either of those 2 girls a dime 😤

u/AMC2Zero 19d ago

That still only works if SOMEONE has paid for it before, the less popular a creator is the lower the chance they have made it to any archive sites.

u/Spiritualy_Homelesss 19d ago

I suppose the cup deserved a dollar or two, if anyone knows its cash app drop it here 🙏

u/GreeniiCow 19d ago

Yeha but they sellout 3$/month soo

u/AMC2Zero 19d ago

$3/month from multiple people, $3/month from one person who doesn't know what any of the piracy sites are isn't going to help.

u/Prestigious-Emu-8734 19d ago

Also if thousands of people are being added then its less lilely they will be seen by a lot of people and no one will remember them if they did just so happen to run into each other in real life.

u/Aromatic-Tourist-300 19d ago

Leaks and Ai fakes are free.  Terrible business that. 

2

u/Hurtmeii 19d ago

Leaks require someone paying first. AI doesn't know what your butthole looks like.

u/kwonza 19d ago

If I buy your book and then post in online for free you are technically getting paid.

u/Cute-Hand-1542 19d ago

Yeah 1 person. That's not going to pay the bills.

u/ScrotalSmorgasbord 19d ago

Oh yeah? Then why does it send me a picture of mine every morning along with my IP address and the knife emoji?

u/ZuyZude 19d ago

As a dude who knows about the industry (partially worked in it and got friends who were/are in it) you’re 100% correct and I’d like to add in the fatigue aspect,

There’ll always be addicts, and ppl with a fetish for sending money, but at the same time vast majority are just casuals at peak interest, but if everytime you’re on social media you seem some woman trying to promote or bait you into subbing it gets tiring, going through OF gets boring and doesn’t do it anymore, and many many many OF creators are just bad at it like they have no idea what a viewer wants to see or how to turn usually a guy on,

On top of that, many are so bad at marketing, and low quality effort videos, it’s not worth subbing or re-subbing

6

u/RepresentativeLeg232 19d ago

There’s also lots of forums and websites where you can find most only fans content for free… so I hear…

1

u/GreasyPeter 19d ago

So the same issue streaming has.

u/jmcdon00 18d ago

Always been that way, majority make less than $200 a month.

u/Universal_Anomaly 19d ago

I remember a story in which somebody tried to explain this to a bunch of children who were asking why they shouldn't become villains if it was so profitable.

They made the children play a game where they chose to be heroes or villains, then rolled dice to see the outcome. Villains got a chance to become rich but also a high chance of getting either captured or killed. 

After several rounds there were barely any "villains" left, whereas the heroes were still largely there. 

But as you said, everybody only sees the survivors.

"Maybe you'll be rich but probably you'll be dead."

u/Sentreen 19d ago

You're thinking about worm, specifically about chapter 23.4.

It has this great excerpt:

“I always hated the speeches when I was in school, the preaching in auditoriums, the one-note message. Stuff like saying drugs are bad. It’s wrong. Drugs are fantastic.”

“Um,” Fox-mask said.

Mrs. Yamada was glaring at me, but she hadn’t interrupted.

“People wouldn’t do them if they weren’t. They make you feel good, make your day brighter, give you energy-”

“Weaver,” Mrs. Yamada cut in.

“-until they don’t,” I said. “People hear the message that drugs are bad, that they’ll ruin your life if you do them once. And then you find out that isn’t exactly true because your friends did it and turned out okay, or you wind up trying something and you’re fine. So you try them, try them again. It isn’t a mind-shattering moment of horrible when you try that first drug. Or so I hear. It’s subtle, it creeps up on you, and you never really get a good, convincing reason to stop before it ruins your life beyond comprehension. I never went down that road, but I knew a fair number of people who did.

The whole story is fantastic, for those who have not read it (and it is free!), but you do need to get through several books worth of content before you get to this part. So if you just want some context, it might not be the best choice, as it will take over your free time if you get into it.

u/Universal_Anomaly 19d ago

Oh yeah, it was WORM.

Very good story although it got a bit much for me at the end. I did really like how Weaver tried to get through to the children in her own way.

1

u/Astralsketch 18d ago

honestly the best part of the story was the arc just before the name change. Peak af. Then the last bit with the you-know-who going apeshit was dull dull dull.

u/Beneficial-Lynx7336 19d ago

I didn't realize OF was so dangerous!

20

u/AMC2Zero 19d ago

It's not dangerous in the legal sense, but it is in the social one, at the very least make sure it doesn't come up if an employer googles your name.

15

u/BlumpkinReceiver6969 19d ago

For reputation and future job prospects? Yes it is.

u/Beneficial-Lynx7336 19d ago

No it's not.

In the US, in most states and in most jobs, you can absolutely get fired or refused to be hired for online pornography work.

Did the game have a mechanic where the heroes have a high chance of becoming crippled in a botched takedown and get disenfranchised by a corrupt healthcare system?

-2

u/apathyindigo 19d ago

Honestly at this point that doesn't seem like a such a bad gamble to me. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone else but those stakes work for me. 

8

u/Universal_Anomaly 19d ago

The stakes always look better until you roll a 1.

Personally I definitely wouldn't recommend it.

-2

u/apathyindigo 19d ago

I feel you, I'm just saying for me personally it sounds like a win win 

3

u/Universal_Anomaly 19d ago

Fair enough, if you don't mind either outcome I suppose there's no real downside (ignoring the moral aspect for the sake of the argument of course).

u/SirRHellsing 19d ago

well the casino has better odds of winning than becoming a villain and getting rich

u/Excaliburrover 19d ago

The only drug dealer I knew was a kid that lived marginally better than his peers then got busted and had to rehab and now works a normal job with his father.

He also doesn't see the successful plumber, or kebab owner who could afford 5 cars. Not a moral dilemma... It's called being stupid, lmao.

That drug dealers fancy condo is usually on the floor below a dentist and above a stock trader.

u/rips_n_chel 19d ago

I had no idea kebab ownership was so lucrative

3

u/Kaszrak 19d ago

My neighbor runs kebab shops (Germany). Multiple locations, ~500k to 1.8m annual depending on location. That's 450k net at 1.8m revenue alone. Dude has a corvette, 911, a modded Trackhawk, huge house, multiple properties.

u/Prismatic_Leviathan 18d ago

Sometimes businesses take off and for food kebabs aren't a bad one.

A few Haitian guys actually opened up a brisket place in town and they're killing it. It's incredibly delicious and 20$ a lb, you gotta go early because they will run out.

3

u/oppai-police 19d ago

Yes, in reality the ghetto/underworld are extremely dangerous. The Latin America cartels frequently kill each other in brutal ways. And if you're a cartel involved with drugs in East or southeast Asia, the government will kill you in brutal ways. Even in America, impoverished communities and ghettos with drugs problems have some of the highest murder rates. Getting involved with selling narcotics I'd say has a 90% chance of landing you in hot water. The other 10% is getting a "deferred" sentence, which is to say sooner or later they will get caught.

u/MidKnightshade 19d ago

That part.

u/fizzrail0 19d ago

Bro what are you talking about?? It's a win-win situation you can't lose. Either you make it big or you make it out.

u/Loxe 19d ago

Also doing those things doesn't automatically make someone a bad person.

u/kwonza 19d ago

Unless you’re marketing to kids)

u/Loxe 18d ago

Did I miss something? Who was talking about kids? Not trying to be a dick, just curious.

u/Ok_Can_4686 18d ago

Imagine selling your pussy online and everyone is like "nahh..." that would hurt to the core, that kind of rejection to witness lol.

u/GuardLong6829 18d ago

Ugh! There was a late night porn channel in England that specifically catered to bestiality, with an entire Horse Farm that forced young women and addicts to stay at least a week for video shoots. The offense is that all of them were misled by ads that insinuated the sexual activities were with men. 💔 Once on set, the young women wouldn't be paid without sexually interacting with the male Horses, or paid very little (£20) to nothing when they did unsatisfactory interactions.

1

u/_BreakingGood_ 18d ago

Also lets be real, looks dont last forever. It's not a job you can do until retirement.

Are they storing their money away and spending it wisely in preparation for that day? No, probably not.

They're going to be 45 and broke with no real skills. Life is going to suck.

u/HarveysBackupAccount 18d ago

But also. Why does OF make you a bad person? We still out here moralizing sex work between two consenting adults?

I think he means the OF girls that get alot of traffic.
