Background story of my evening-- I set up a travel/documentary goal of $2600 last night before I got on cam on cb and then got on mfc after and in the first 20 minutes of being on MFC I multi-tasked and also set up a documentary/travel wishlist. I travelled for 10 months to 11 countries last year and have been working on a documentary while I was doing it but then I had to come back to the states. I have been on CB for a few months and this was my 5th time camming on MFC
Not only did my Top Regular from CB (my reg from CB now also comes to MFC to see me) purchase a Video Camera off my documentary WishList worth over $5000 (He'll probably want free privates for the rest of the year for it but WOO-HOO!) that I put on there to just make the other cams seem more reasonably priced but in addition to that a new regular on MFC (regular for 4/5 times I've been on there) tipped 10,000! Then he tipped 11,000!!! Then he tipped massive amounts off and on (cue me blubbering happy ridiculous tears off and on since I found out about the video camera anyway) which he insisted go specifically towards the travelling and when the other dudes were trying to get him to request me to take clothes off too etc for the regular chat goal he refused and said that he wanted me to stay dressed and if they wanted me to take clothes off they would have to meet that goal.. Ladies.. He met 80% of my travel goal!! WHAT! Then he also went and found my documentary wish list and bought every other thing on there other than the cheaper cameras spending over $540 in equipment purchases...
To top it all off-- It's not even my fricking birthday-- My birthday is tomorrow! I am certain tomorrow will be nothing like today and that today was a fluke but oh my goodness I have been up for 20 some odd hours now and I am wired and I love camming forever and I am going to be able to finish my documentary beyond my wildest dreams!!!
Also my camscore doubled because of the tips and it's past 6000... and it's my 5th freaking day canmming on MFC... WHAT!
I love everyone. MWAH!

Camming rocks because I get paid to tell men how pathetic their small penises are.
When I do that IRL I just get called a bitch.

Camming rocks because I was actually in the first row on the first page of Streamate this weekend. I am slightly shocked. That has never happened to me before. Sure, 2nd or 3rd row but never 1st!
Camming also rocks because I actually made my countdown on MFC today. That hardly ever happens! I love getting paid to just be naked. :)

Last night I was on for maybe 2.5 hrs and made 14,999 tokens. I had a truprivate for 80 mins (he tipped 1000 at end of it too) and it all came from the same guy (most of it). i had an offline tip of 1k too. my second best night on mfc yet! my best was 19,500 when at the camgirl mansion that Sophia Locke puts on. My cam score went from 2000 before cam mansion in Jan and now is 4600! I'm so lucky and this is why camming rocks. I was very discouraged to get on cam yesterday and hadn't worked since Fri. Go us! congrats to you all too!

Camming rocks because although i haven't been on many hours since i started (like 1-2 hours a day to build up the confidence etc) i logged on tonight to a shitty first hour everytime i would say hello everyone vanished from the room... but i kept my positive attitude and said everything will be good and a guy entered and said he didn't want to do any pvts tonight and wanted to talk which honestly at that point i was more than happy to just say hi and have a conversation to keep myself from feeling like a parrot... anyways he did take me private and stayed in private till his credits ran out :) YAY! :)

Camming rocks because it's the 2nd time since I have cammed since I set up my travel goal, and not only have I met it- and beyond- I was up to number 6 on the top row of myfreecams-- on my 6th time camming there! My cam score is now nearly 7000 and my highest tip is 11,112!! Also I received over 400$ in amazon gift cards as well as had many things purchased off of my wishlists! Utterly flabbergasted. Camming ROCKS! :D

Camming Rocks right now cuz, after taking a reeeaaallly long holiday break from camming, and this being my second week back-
I hit my $200 goal/night for the first time, AND when I was in pvt, there were 5 guys fighting over who got the next show with me and telling all the noobs in my room how amazing I was. :D
^as close as I can get to a "great camscore" on SM. :) lol.

Camming rocks right now because, after a couple of discouraging nights, I finally chased down the source of a technical problem that was causing my mic to be extremely quiet no matter what I did with it, and suddenly traffic was back to normal!

Camming rocks because I toughed it out for 2 hours @ 8/hr...but was rewarded by solid privates for 90 min after.
I try to post a "Camming Rocks" each time I post a "Camming Sucks" so I'm forcing myself to see the good things.

I just found out I was posted on the staff blog of the site I'm on and I was declared エロ過ぎ ("too sexy")! (The post was titled エロ過ぎ注意報!which is something like Warning! Too Sexy!)
I'm surprised I was written about though! I'm also surprised they mentioned how fast I type. lol
I'm really glad I seem to be doing pretty well for just starting out ;3; There are slow times, but I never make less than $100 a day which is great and support is really kind! I wanted this to be my secondary site and use Streamate as my primary, but idk if I even want to go to SM anymore lol I tried it and I have found that I'm not a fan of free chat!

This is soooo sweet of you!

Camming rocks because even though I didn't get my goal on MFC last night, when I logged off an MFC basic contacted me on Yahoo! and paid for a 10 minute Skype show via Cam Model Directory. :) I get so many time-wasters on Yahoo!, so it was nice to finally get my FIRST Cam Model Directory customer. So between MFC and CMD, it got me to just being $3.50 short of my goal, which is definitely fine with me.

Camming rocks because I fell way short of my goal but I still made way more than minimum wage and had fun doing it. And I agree with SofiaRosa, this thread keeps me out of the Camming Sucks thread/mentality, and when I hear about other models having wins it makes me remember that good things happen but your cam gotta be turned on for it!

Congratulations, that is beautiful! Isn't is awesome to find a gentlemen? I mean, not everyone has to be one, but when you find one it's like something out of an old Hollywood movie. *swoon*
PS Camming rocks because I've had the best day in a long time and it's a Tuesday! And totally unexpected, one of my favorite guys just popped in for a quickie so I feel a little woozy o_0 (in a good way).

Camming rocks because it gave me the strength to do things, even super simple things, that I wouldn't have been able to do before camming grew me a backbone.
We've been getting a lot of spam phone calls on our land line. Each number calls at least three times a day. I'm sick of it. I pick one up and say all this cordially but firmly.
Me: Hello. Who is this?
Him, angry official: I need to speak with the person who is in charge of the electric bill.
Yikes! Sounds serious! ...but wait. This isn't the number they have for our electric bill...
Me: I see. And how did you get this number?
Him: Ma'am. This IS the number you gave on your electric bill, is it not?
My mind jumps. This is a free chat loser scam IRL!
Me: Is that so? And who are you trying to reach?
Him: ....Joe....Joe Smith.
I can't help but laugh
Me: We both know that there's no 'Joe Smith' at this address and I'd really appreciate if you take me off your calling list.
He sounds crestfallen: Alright. Thank you ma'am.
I never would have been able to do this before cam. I would have done just what he expected me to do, panicked and given him the information. I'm able to turn my cam-critical eye to IRL situations and respond in my cam-take-no-shit persona.

Camming rocks! I just have to post how happy I am with camming. When I first started camming I did ok but then after about a month it came to a halt! The money didn't slow down for me it literally STOP. I got disgusted, depressed, and unmotivated. I found an outside job to pay my bills but still wanted to cam again. After giving it much thought I realized that the money stopped for me because I wasn't putting in the effort anymore when it came to camming. Basically I didn't change anything. I looked the same on cam everyday, didn't put any effort into my room or clothes or hair. I think I got boring after a while and guys got tired of looking at the same thing.
So I decided to reinvent myself. Bought new clothes, changed my hairstyle, and fixed up my room. In 2 days I made $500! This is something I never thought I could do but I did! Even though people complain about sites being slow or worry about sites turning into shit I just proved that if you work hard and adapt to the changes in the cam world, you can be successful. You just have to learn to market yourself according to those changes and if need be reinvent yourself.

I totally agree, I did this myself after months of frustration. For me, I had to reboot my self-discipline and accountability. It's not easy because I am terrible with sticking to a schedule but each week it gets easier to be in a routine and running into the same guys online is rewarding because I look forward to their company. So I am having more fun, and they are getting used to finding me around the same time and it's paying off; I might be able to hit that $1k challenge this week. YAY!

I love that! It's so exciting to see yourself there. One time I could NOT find myself and was looking all over, then finally saw my profile on the first page. I couldn't believe what I was seeing, and screencapped the hell out of it. It was also like 4 am my time, LOL.

LOL I did the same thing but I took a picture of it with my cellphone. Today lol I did something even funnier. I took a picture of myself cause I was right next to a top performer. I know it may sound silly but I felt so lucky to be located next to them :-)

Camming rocks because when it was slow this morning, I had a douche bag in free chat . First he insulted me. Then he said, "I see you're really raking in the money" sarcastically. Right after, one of my regs took me exclusive for 20 minutes :).

Camming rocks because I had to take a few days off (Shark week) so I came back being super stressed about not having made any money for the last two days. I came back to my BEST REG EVER who I had not seen in months! Turns out he was out of the country on business, I thought he had just forgotten about me but he is back and tipping once again. So far today I have done only one show and already have over $50 my cut. On one show! Luvin' it!
Oh, AND my site just instituted a new thing: instead of doing a weekly bonus they're doing daily bonuses now! So, so motivating (even though I don't think I'll ever place, it's okay).

This is so crazy but when I saw this post, it was the first time I'd seen someone tipping during a chat, I have only gotten them after. I was like, damn I better up my game to get on this! The VERY next day after seeing this, I got a long exclusive and he tipped several times during! They weren't as big as yours but it was so awesome I teared up.
It's like your post planted the idea in my head or something, because he asked if I was going to be on later so I stayed past the time I usually log out in case he was for real, and also because I was making up for logging on late. So many people say they're coming back so I wasn't really expecting it but just being positive about camming keeps me in the mindframe that anything is possible.
