I'm gonna see how much I can squander in phone/text tonight and wake up early tomorrow. I'll be watching love and hip hop tonight and ordering pizza :D

Just booked myself a massage for Thursday morning. My back has been killing me and I deserve some pampering from all the silly stresses in life lately. Ladies--go do something nice for yourself this week. We deserve it!

I plan to give myself a much needed night out Friday or Saturday. More the reason to stick to my schedule!

Good for you Ivy! I overslept so I've only been on for 2 hours but I'm starving and my kitchen is a mess because I'm the only one in the house that cleans it. I keep saying I'm not cleaning it again until someone else does but then it just gets dirty and I can't handle it so I had to clean before I could eat lunch. Hopefully this evening will be better.
Same in my house. Like it will kill them to wash a dish or mop a floor. So fucking annoying

Worked a little over two hours and made $200. I had to take a break since I'm still kinda sick but want to hit $300 for the day. Thanks for making this thread, its really inspiring and makes me want to work hard.
Edited - Made a little over $300 for the day. It felt good to make a goal and actually stick around to hit it. I think I will stop being lazy and go back to working a lot and appreciate camming again.

Added $120 to my ticker. Wasn't easy today but I'll take it.

Today was rough. I only got about 3 hours in. Tomorrow is a new day though!

Okay, so I didn't hit my $200 goal BUT I did clean my entire apartment from top to bottom, get confirmation that I'll be moving into a one bedroom apartment in my complex, and have drinks with a dear friend. So, all and all, I'll call it a win. I'm gonna paint myself a set of new acrylic nails (I do my own glue-on types) and then hit the voyeur cam while I sleep. I mean, really, even if it's only a buck, I may as well make something for my 'recharge' period, right? Haha.
<3 you ladies! Make all the monies!

I didn't sleep at all last night so I'm going to clean my apartment and sign on early at around 8:30. My goal today is $400. I'll sip some redbulls and crash at 10pm.

05-28-2014, 04:04 AM
I got about four hours of sleep ugh. Leaving for school soon. Will do another four hours on cam tonight. Feeling accomplished!

Ugh. My internet is being mega funky right now. My PC is loading everything fine mostly, but it's super slow. My iMac, on the other hand, isn't loading most pages normally/at all and won't initialize the SM show page for me. Basically, no voyeur show and no sleep. Not. Happy. And it still isn't working, so I'm not even sure what the heck I should do. The cam on my PC is crappy, so I hate to use it, especially when I've been spoiled by my hi-def built-in i-sight (lots of hyphens there!) and 27" monitor for camming... Blah.
Plus side: finished quite a bit of homework I had forgotten was due today. Yay?
Issabelle
05-28-2014, 05:17 AM
Okay, but actually, right as I posted that my internet decided to start working again. Fingers crossed that it keeps its crap together so I can take a nap on cam at least. Hahah.

Gonna hit it hard today...my goal is $100 per day for the next 4 days. Been having a difficult week health and emotion wise, but I'll push through and try to make bank :) good luck to all you ladies!
Issabelle
05-28-2014, 03:36 PM
I kicked my own ass onto cam and made $51.13 for the 75 minutes I was on. Not too shabby. Downside? My last show ended with a serious need for Benadryl. Turns out I'm allergic to skin contact with chocolate sauce. Good to know after I'm covered in it. Lol!

Hi Ladies :)
Made 450 from my regulars, despite having horrendous cramps and a swollen, bruised face. That's the EXACT amount of my car payment, so yay. Tuition and bills are taken care of, I have some money saved, I just wish my health would cooperate....ugh.....

I had to sleep last night instead of work. I was so exhausted I could tell it would have been bad if I pressed on. So 11 hours later here I am! I needed that. I think five nights of camming in a row may be my limit so I'll try not to go past that in the future before taking a night off. I'll be camming Friday night to make up for it. Will be on four hours tonight also. First I gotta work out, errands, possibly clean the house some then homework.

That is so true..sometimes sleep is just all important. I also find that after day 5 on cam i need some space and time off from everything. I tend to hit the weekends the hardest, make more money then, so I can afford to sleep a night or so in the week.

The problem in my house is that our roommate will occasionally take the trash out and then claim she spent time cleaning the kitchen. She thinks because she took the trash out she gets to bitch when it gets messy. So fucking annoying.

Ok, this whole working multiple sites isn't working for me right now. I think I'm going to aim for 160 hours on SM only for the month of June. That's 40 hours a week.
SweetJulia
05-30-2014, 04:26 PM
431 today ladies :) Sending money vibes your way and will finally update ticker for all week in a few minutes.

It's pouring down rain here in Texas. I was going to go running but that clearly isn't happening so maybe I'll work a couple more hours.
SimoneGray
05-31-2014, 12:40 AM
Last day before payout cutoff...also last day before my challenge officially begins. With the new rules on SM, I'm not sure how its gonna go, but come the 1st I'll be ready. Been making plans etc and getting everything ready this week so that next week I'll be able to hit the hustle hard.
Pushing for goal today as well though
Issabelle

Alright, this week has sucked. I got in a major fight with a friend of many years that I think will very likely end in us not speaking for a long time. I just can't handle the drama anymore. Besides that, I need money. I mean, yes, I have my private pay job so I'll be getting a check for several hundred dollars early next week, but I need to make more regardless since my bank account is just getting too low.
My method of dealing with feeling like crap was basically to smoke a ton and eat crappy Chinese food with a buddy, pass out at 9:30 p.m., and wake up at 4 a.m. pumped and ready to go. I bought the C910 webcam finally, which should motivate me to work since--hey!--it was $100 with shipping brand new!
To that end, I'm gonna cam until cut off as best I can. For me, that's in a little under 12 hours. Off to get ready. Have a wicked money day babies!

CPR class did end up getting out super early both days so I'm already home today (and CPR certified yay). Going to finish my smoothie, get ready to cam and then go for 8 hours. Hopefully I'll still have some time and steam left to go out for a bit tonight. Working an event for school tomorrow.
Staples
05-31-2014, 09:48 AM
I just finished a smoothie Juliette! I'm getting a much later start than I like getting on Saturdays but I'm aiming for 7 hours. Good luck everyone!

This week sucked for me too because I didn't apply myself really at all and it was a bit slow. *kicks self, hard!* I had a $2k challenge and I didn't work hard enough to make it. Le sigh, whelp, thanks for another week to start over. I'm hoping on today for as long as I can and then Sunday I'm back on my hustling game again. Hard.

I'm in..you girls give me so much motivation but I really need to have some kind of accountability because I am so guilty of not bothering to log on and then wondering why my earnings are practically non-existent!
High Goal: £12k
Minimum Goal: £8k
Day You Will Start: 1st June
Date of Completion: 22nd September (my birthday! :D )
Your Completion Reward: Moving house (asap..) and also a nice holiday to celebrate my ageing
My hustle: camming (possibly adding a site or 2 to see if I can handle the split-cam) and c4s, plus content on AW

Welcome, Viki!
So, I've come to the conclusion that my earning potential is based on how many hours I do online. I compared my SM earnings last year around this time to this year and was shocked to see that the more hours I put in, the more money I made. That's not rocket science, but I also realized I raised my rates this year but cut back a ton of hours. I was surprised that one week I put in 33 hours on SM and the most I do now is 8 hours a week with splitting. I'm upping my game because I want to compare numbers and make this challenge. I'll put in 33-40 hours this week and compare it to last year's earnings. I'll put my prices slightly higher than last years, but lower than I have them right now.

You girls are so awesome! If only I could do more hours. On average, I do well when I work, but the problem is that I don't do nearly enough hours. If it's quiet I get pissed off and don't want to be there anymore. Do you get these feelings? And how do you manage to stay online AND be pleasant? Xxx

I keep SW open in another window so I'm not bored and a kitten website in a third. Also, making sure I'm comfortable temperature wise and clothing wise.

The big thing for me is making sure I am comfortable. I change positions a lot and sometimes get up and walk around the room (if I'm camming in the bedroom and not the closet). I also take short 20 minute breaks every couple of hours.
Today has been lame and I haven't made anything but that's typical of Saturdays for me.
I've been doing some data analysis and I've found that some of my best times to earn money are early mornings and late nights so for the month of june not only am I solely focusing on SM, I am also changing my schedule. I'm going to get up at 5:00 am and eat breakfast and then cam from 5:30 or 6:00 until 10:00 AM. Then I'll probably take a nap or something. Then, I'll get back on around 7:00 or 8:00 and cam until 11:00 PM. On Sundays I plan to cam from 6:00 AM to noon and take the rest of the day off and I'm taking Mondays completely off as I've never really made anything on Mondays.
I am going to try this schedule for a week and see how it goes!

I feel like this often. As simple as i sounds you just have to remind yourself that if you're not online there is zero chance of making any money. It's very easy for a customer to come along and drop a lot of cash on you after a quiet spell online. The earning potential is too good and too quick to give up. PRESS ON!
And as far as being pleasant... fake it lol. Or think about the things you'll be able to buy/pay for with the money your pleasant demeanor will attract.

I flick between here, other camming forums, random funny websites, but there's never enough to keep me entertained for long enough when I'm feeling bored and murderous. If only I could get past feeling like a homicidal manic...

Today was a lame day. I'm going to zone out with a video game and relax for a bit. I did get three videos made and my boyfriend is filming two more for me tonight that I can't really film myself so at least I've got some new content to sell!
Maybe I'll hop on later this evening and try again.

Just made a sweet new reg who is awesome! Just told me to do whatever in exclusive and we chatted about just random stuff like music. Made $150 in and hr and a half on SM and Arousr , taking a break for some Mcds ice cream and comin back for a few hrs. SOO happy, this was the boost I needed to start the SM pay period off right cuz I really need money, Im moving in 2 weeks. :):):)
Issabelle
05-31-2014, 09:52 PM
Well, I didn't get to my plan of camming all day. I ended up working on some major school work that's due this week. Ew... I have my senior portfolio due in like 3 days as a graduation requirement for my major and I'm missing two very important pieces of paper because the scanned files corrupted and I don't have the originals. Hopefully those appear by Monday...
On the plus side, I'm camming right now and sitting at $33 for the last hour.

Last week I only worked long houres (as in around 6) on two days the rest of the days I stayed offline or only did a houre or two. I had lots of backpains and was feeling down.
Iam going to pick it up starting from today. Feeling a bit scared to go online, it always feels weird when I have had a lot of days off to go back again. Also I worry about placement, but there is nothing else to do than to face it and to go online and put in the houres to get it up again if that is needed.
You all motivate me so much!

Hey ladies! Had a decent week...right in the mid range of my goals, but I really want to hit that high one, so creating more eggs in more baskets this week.
And can I just say how much I LOOOOOOVVVVEEEEEE waking up to passive income? Starting the day off with $90.00 and haven't done a thing. Yay! I think that's a good omen. ;)
Push on ladies!!!
BlondebombGA
06-01-2014, 08:57 AM
Ivy...I so know that scared feeling after having some time off. Hell, some days I feel that way every time the phone rings, like I've lost all my skills suddenly and have to prove myself to some wanker.
I always feel that way when making clips which is why I procrastinate so badly. Or correction...why I USED to procrastinate so badly. ;) That is how I am gonna reach my high goal, so kicking that nervousness in the ass. And it's total poppycock. They always come out how I want because I'm a perfectionist, so leaving that behind. Gooooooo June CLIPS!!!!!
SimoneGray
06-02-2014, 02:48 AM
My hustle challenge week has officially begun! I am very nervous, but at the same time I am also quite psyched to see if I can do this. I will start with clip uploads etc today and see how that goes, also split cam etc.

06-02-2014, 03:56 AM
Morning all! I'm up early, ready to hustle this money and I wanted to wish you guys the most successful day today :D
My motivation for today: Breaking My Bad Habits
I'm gonna be real with you ladies. Lately I've been failing myself because I've been half assing everything lately. However, I'm awake this morning which means I have another day to do what I gotta do when it comes to this challenge which is work. I refuse to let myself fail myself.

^^^ This...is everything.
Decided to also do the $500+ a week challenge, so that I will have some accountability and also a heck of a lot of motivation when it comes to this challenge and the other one.
Gonna kill it the next few months and not let myself down.

Last week was hellacious glad it's a new week! Camming every weeknight this week. Have a hot date Saturday night with a great guy who's got his shit together and makes great money (yiss). Then going on a hike Sunday. Feeling great right now! Hope everyone has an awesome week!!

I'm a graduate! I'm a graduate! Almost! I submitted the last of my required stuff for my degree today! WOOOHOOOO!!!!! YEAH BABY!
So, on that happy note, I can now cam nearly uninterrupted (sans one final next week and a miscellaneous assignment or two for an elective course). Could my day get any better? Oh yes, yes it can!
Issa's new cam got here today! I was straight up so excited! I forgot I'd ordered it and then the key was in my mailbox for the box locker and it was there and I DID SUCH A MASSIVE HAPPY DANCE THAT I BROKE AN ARTIFICIAL NAIL OFF AND WAS STILL HAPPY! I have the c910 ladies! WOOOHOOOOOOOO WOOT WOOOOO!
Imma go play with my new toy and get my ass on cam now. Peace out brilliant ladies!
P.S. Sorry for the excessive caps and explanation marks, but I'm stoked.
P.P.S. I have nail glue. Therefore, nails fixed, cam secured, AND degree earned.
