    That 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.

      Same 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.
