It feels like she knew she would get fired from this new job, leverage it nationwide articles and get even more subscribers to her OF page. She even references the teaching gig in her bio, and the new job in her latest posts.

Maybe. It doesn’t matter. Jobs shouldn’t be able to fire you because you get naked on the Internet, which requires you to pay to even see in the first place.

Edit:

@meep_launcher@lemm.ee made a great point about teacher/student dynamics and I can agree with that in most circumstances (e.g. the students are underage). I still think it’s ridiculous for her second, non-teaching job to fire her.

I’m a teacher and they specifically have guidelines on what you’re behavior online should be. Keeping your socials clean. Making sure my interactions with students are kept professional.

The fact is that kids these days are nosey and great researchers. Having an only fans as an educator has a huge risk of students discovering it, and will ultimately change the relationship between student and teacher from a student/ teacher relationship to a viewer/ pornstar one.

This is the most sane, rational summation of this debacle I’ve read yet.

If there was karma on this place then I’m about to yeet it into oblivion but nevertheless. Teachers are not paid nearly enough but doing only fans and teaching to not combine at all. I won’t bother explaining why because it’s obvious.

Then we’ll see fewer and fewer teachers. And more and more sex workers.

OnlyFans and high school teacher absolutely do not mix. There is a 0% chance one will be able to properly educate students in that environment.

If only we paid them a living wage so they wouldn’t have to seek additional income to survive.

ST. LOUIS…Her yearly teaching salary was $42,000

In 2016, the median household income in the City of St. Louis was $42,000. source (expand the dropdown: What does this indicator measure’)

She made as much teaching as the median household income in the area by herself (completely ignoring the rest of her household). Since when is that not a living wage?

The important piece of this to me is this: She made $1 mil on OnlyFans and $42k/year as a teacher. She wants to be a teacher despite making plenty of money from other sources. This tells me that unless you have other evidence of impropriety she’s someone we want in the classroom. It also reinforces my stance, along with plenty of other studies that have been performed, that a universal basic income won’t stop people from working.

Pay people better and we’ll just keep working because we like it. It’s part of being human, but we shouldn’t be suffering to survive at the same time.

You can’t retire on $1m net worth. That’s not even a house in lots of areas.

It definitely helps. But giving up my career for $1m would be a very bad investment.

Sort of the joke in it all. You can’t retire on $42k/year either

yea but you can teach all life long, whereas on Onlyfans you… uh,… nevermind

y’all misunderstood my post, I think. I was trying to joke about the fact that even if you’re getting on in years, there will always be an audience for your OnlyFans. Anywayyyy

$1 million = 23.8 years of teaching at $42K/yr.

Add in that id you don’t blow it all, you get to count the interest income. A long term investment gets about 6-7% per year. That’s actually more than the teaching job pay.

Much better than that in the current market
