Ever wondered what it’s like to leave a high-powered job and make a fortune in an entirely different world?
This is the story of a single mom who swapped her corporate banking career for OnlyFans and turned $100K into $400K in just a year!
She started her banking career at just 17, thinking it’d be a short stint, but ended up staying until her early twenties.
Marriage, kids, and life came along, and soon, she found herself navigating life as a single mom after separating from her husband.
With no one to rely on, she took charge, making every decision count. Her kids were her driving force, and the thought of providing for them led her to explore new opportunities.
What happened next is nothing short of inspiring, a leap of faith that changed her life forever.
What does she do for work?
She is a full-time OnlyFans creator and sells nude content. She explains it as Instagram for adult content. She also said that it costs monthly pay for people to follow or subscribe to her page. She usually makes money from a subscription price and also charges people to talk with her.
No, she didn’t have any previous experience in the industry. She is just a mother of two boys and does not look anything like an adult star. She thought it would be nice to try for once and that’s why she got into this industry.
She then vowed to buy a house and actually bought it in December 2024. Her big goal now is to retire by the age of 40 and buy one property per year.
What did her relatives or kids think about her career choice?
When she was young, her parents got divorced. It eventually became a long road of instability for her and her siblings. So, that’s why, when she got divorced, she looked at her kids and thought that there was no way she would let them down for anyone and anything. She didn’t care for what society would think.
Her kids think that she is working on the computer. It is not something she is ashamed and she wants to tell them about it when they are of the right age. At the moment, they aren’t that old to know about adult content or her work on OnlyFans.
Her kids know that she works hard and sometimes is even awake till 2 in the morning. But, she can pay their school fees in full for the whole year while working from home, so she finds it lucky. She says that it’s a big deal for her to be able to pay their school fees in full.
Does her ex-husband contribute financially or not?
She said in the interview that her ex does contribute financially. But, that only started just a couple of months ago. At the time of their separation, she tried to talk to him about how they were going to settle things financially.
But he said he would discuss that in court and at that time she couldn’t afford to go to court. So, she just told him to keep everything but the kids. The house and super are all in his name. He does see the kids now and supports them financially each month.
Does she see her future as an OnlyFans creator?
She said that she never really intended to do it in the long term. She just thought to do it for some time, pay some bills, and move on. But, as soon as the money started flowing in she was hooked. And, she did get into problems because of that.
Somebody who knew her contacted her ex-husband, her parents, and her family, they took screenshots of her and sent them over to school dads.
She had a really hard time because of that and felt like why did she even do this? But, she decided that you know what? I am going to do this and I am going to do it for my kids.
Recently, Ukraine’s tax services discovered that Ukrainian OnlyFans stars have reported an income of Hr 326.1 million which is about $7.79 million from 2020 to 2022.
Ukrainian authorities had requested data from the U.K.’s tax service on earnings of their citizens on OnlyFans. They sent out about 4,429 requests to declare their income from the platform. Out of which only 451 people filed taxes. The filings displayed the total tax declarations of $1.5 million in personal income and military taxes.
Although OnlyFans is banned in the country because of the adult content, many residents still use it to earn money. Ukraine’s tax services also got a court order recently to pass details on the money earned by its citizens on some sites to a law enforcement agency, without specifying which one.
It was reported by several media outlets that Ukraine’s Bureau of Economic Security was given names of Ukrainians earning money on OnlyFans. They also started to search for Ukrainian OnlyFans stars and models and charged them with Article 301 which deals with the display of pornography.
Parliamentary Finance Committee Chair Danylo Hetmantsev reported on Telegram on 18 December 2024 that “This is very important money for the country in times of war, and we are grateful to the girls for their responsible attitude and contribution to victory. Failure to pay taxes on time should not result in prosecution, as long as the taxes are eventually paid. Law enforcement officials share this view.”
Two of the major U.S. credit card companies Mastercard and Visa have been blamed for not stopping payments to access content related to child abuse and trafficking on adult content website OnlyFans. The allegations were made in a whistleblower complaint which was filed in the year 2023.
The whistleblower is a senior compliance expert in the credit card and banking industries and has alleged that the companies were aware of the usage of their cards to pay for illegal content since the year 2021. The companies are charged with neglecting the illicit revenue streams.
Where was the Complaint Filed Against Visa and Mastercard?
The complaint was filed with the U.S. Treasury’s Financial Crimes Unit, Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN), and the U.S. Justice and Homeland Security departments in January 2023. The whistleblower claims that Visa and Mastercard were warned by federal agents in the years 2021 and 2022. They were notified about the unlawful content. The whistleblower accused them of “turning a blind eye to flows of illicit revenue.”
Did Visa and Mastercard Know About Inaction Despite Warnings?
The complaint says that the two companies have received multiple warnings from anti-trafficking experts and U.S. federal agents in 2021 and 2022 about the prohibited content on OnlyFans.But, both companies have failed to take necessary action.
The complaint also states that they knew about the existence of child sexual abuse content on the platform but continued processing payments on OnlyFans. Thus, the companies have failed to comply with anti-money laundering requirements and have violated the Bank Secrecy Act.
Is There Any Evidence to Back the Allegations?
There is much evidence and investigations that support the allegations made by the whistleblower in the complaint. A report by the Anti-Trafficking Intelligence Initiative (ATII) in 2022 says that a lot of OnlyFans accounts were found to be linked with Child Sexual Abuse Material (CSAM) and sex trafficking.
What Did Visa and Mastercard Said on the Allegations?
Both the companies i.e. Visa and Mastercard have denied all the claims made by the whistleblower. A spokesperson from Visa said “We will remove any financial institutions or merchants failing to meet our robust compliance requirements. We employ top-tier controls to prevent, detect, and address illegal activity.”
A Mastercard spokesperson said “Mastercard holds all users of its payments system to high standards and, if illegal activity is identified, we work with partners to act. The three government agencies hadn’t referred to any specific illegal activity for us to investigate or act on. No evidence of current illegal activity has been provided to us.”
What was OnlyFans’ Response to the Backlash?
Among the claims, another company that is facing the backlash is OnlyFans. But, the UK-based company hasn’t responded to the allegations made by the whistleblower. On its website, OnlyFans conveys that it enforces a “zero-tolerance policy” against any content related to child abuse or trafficking. It blocks or takes down material that violates the companies’ rules.
OnlyFans has stated before that “We aggressively target, report, and support the investigations and prosecutions of anyone who abuses our platform.”
