Alright fellow fall/winter hustlers! I just finished my first “10k savings boast challenge” for 4 weeks and I’m ready for a longer term challenge! Posting here to hold my self accountable, keep me focused and hopefully find some buddies that want to motivate each other and crush our goals! As with the 10k challenge, my main focus is saving every penny I have for my house down payment. But I’d like to treat myself to some luxuries that I’ve been putting off for a long time.
Goal will be Nov 1-May 1 (6 months)
Your Maximum Goal: 120,000- Seems like a lot but I’m still trying for my 20k/month goal
Your Minimum Goal: 90,000
Your Start Date: Nov1
Weekly Update:
Date of Completion: May 1
Your Completion Reward: Ive been wanting to treat myself to some micro blading, laser hair removal, and other beauty enhancements for a long time. If I can hit at least my min goal I’m going to start with at least micro blading and some minimal fillers. If I hit my high goal, I’m itching for a trip down to the keys. As I’ve been doing, I’d like to keep putting half of each paycheck away into savings
yes yes yes!!!
i am so going to join on you on this challenge. i need 35k/40k (total will be roughly 75k but splitting with my bf) to renovate our house downstairs. the planning got approved this month so now i just need the $$$$$. A rear and side extension with glass floor to ceiling sliders all the way across and a new kitchen with a huge 3.5m island and a big 3m skylight above the island :) with big 120cm x 120cm floor tiles and i also want to convert the garage into a playroom and have a utility with big window looking out onto the garden.
I AM READY to do whatever it takes!
goal will be NOV - MAY (my bf already has his half so if i have my half by may we will start the building works in june)
minimum goal; £35k (in pounds)
maximum goal; anything above 35k will go on renovating the bathrooms and maybe treating myself to some eyelid surgery and new veneers :)
aiming to work 200hrs per month to make it happen. either 10 hr shifts 5 days per week or 12.5 hour shifts 4 times per week
i will print this photo out and stick it above my computer to keep me motivated lol

Omg Birdette, this is a great inspo picture!!!! I lovelovelove it!!
SunDoll you will make it! You are doing so well! I personally fight now for 10k months, but once I become consistent on it, I will upgrade to 15k then 20k.
I am really determined to become one of these high earning camgirls too. Fuck, there's so much money to be made in this industry, but ain't available for the lazy. It took me 10 years of poor judgement, to understand this.
I gave up on many hobbies, only to work 200 hours months and I will increase to 250 hours months.
I guess that's my goal for now: End up making 10k a month and putting 200-250 hours consistently.
I have written in the 10k goal thread that I also need 30k ish, by spring-summer to build my camming space, so basically they merge togheter. To achieve that I need to do those two things above :)))

I have no exact number for this hustle, I just want to save as much as I can. And honestly, having 2 platforms now that give me a consistent gain is def easier on my mind, but more stressful on my body. I low key regret not starting OF earlier. I wish I wasn’t such a chicken. But anyhow, I’ll check on this for inspo. My goal is to save 80% of every paycheck.

Of course since my post a couple days ago I had a family emergency come up followed by my apartment flooding yesterday! Ughhh I’ve been working non stop for a while now putting in over 50 hours a week so I’m some weird way I think it was meant to happen to force me to take some time off and focus on the things that truly matter to me. Everything and everyone is ok luckily. I’m just stuck cleaning up the mess. Not giving up on my goal however! Just a bump in the road….

Ive fallen off quite a bit with my goals but I’m ready to reassess and get back on track without further adieu!
Maximum Goal: 120,000
Minimum Goal: 90,000
From: Nov 1- May 1
Currently: 10 weeks down and 15 weeks left
I’m at 32,300 which is about 30% of my goal Max goal and 40% of my min goal. Not giving up just yet! The last couple months have been really rough and lately it feels like the biggest accomplishment is just getting online at all. But I’m ready to get back in control of my life!
I’ve switched up my hustle a bit, updated a ton of content and I’m ready to get my hours back up to what they used to be.
Cheers everyone!
how are all of y’all making out with your goals?

Whoever bumped this is a godsend currently putting in lots of hours the next couple of months for surgery trying to save up at least 20K-30k over the next few months. I have to cover rent in two different countries pay for my surgery and post-op care.

*Update to my goal progress*
Currently: 48,000
Over 50% of my min goal and 40% of my max goal. Still have 9 weeks left! For a second it seemed impossible to make 42k or 70k in 9 weeks but then I remembered I’m a fucking goddess and attract miracles everyday so it’s already on its way!

I looked at your numbers and I was really impressed! I was like, "I'm not doing a challenge just trying to hit my own goals. Where am I at in comparison???" Counting Nov, Dec, Jan, Feb I am at $43501.85 and I'm working a full day today. Keep kicking ass!!!!!

I fell off my full hustle for a couple weeks as I’ve been busy with personal life but still been making my minimums and had a really great week last week so hopefully I can keep up the hustle and finish this thing!
Currently: $65,350
65% of my Max goal and 72% of my min goal
I’ve got 4 weeks left until my trip and that was the date I set for myself to end this challenge. 25k or 35k seems impossible for 4 weeks but like I said last time, the universal always provides… time to make April my top earning month ever!

Thank you!!! You're right, I'm not always so kind to myself when I'm so focused on where I wanted to be and forget to be proud of where I am now. Thank you for the reminder to take time for gratitude! If you don't mind, I'd like to pm you soon and ask about some of the tax info you've shared in the past. I do the best I can but of course pay a tonnnnnn. You mentioned some really valuable stuff and I'm totally clueless how it works...

It's that time of the year again!! Time to jump back in the hustle bandwagon! September 1st to March 1st, here I gooooo!!
I became demotivated during summer, I should have kept going on with my 200+ hours, I am sure my earnings would have keep increasing, but there were many factors that contributed to my "lazyness" (if 100 hours a month can be called lazyness). My earnings lowered by 50% but thanks to the previous fall/winter hustle, I was able to not give a fuck, because I had some savings. Now I am ready to do it again!
Now that I am back, this time I will slowly start incorporating content again, I will have to plan a determined schedule, so I don't mix them.

Yassa let's gooooo!
September 1st- November 1st - $20k
Take a few months off living on Savings and passive income
Late December - March, holiday trips, back to camming $10k savings goal for new business venture.
I've planned each week and my purpose of working and a weekly rewards system every Friday.

09-02-2022, 05:35 AM
I'm up and on early today and so far made 40% of my daily goal. I think it's gonna be a great Friday for us all.

Hi! I'm not around here much but I would love to join this challenge to motivate myself and keep myself accountable.
My goal is because I want to move and I need to earn $39k by Halloween so it shows the yearly income I need on my BoleynModels pay stubs.
My Fall Hustler Challenge is $39k in 60 days starting yesterday. This comes out to $650 per day. My average hourly income is $115-125, so this will be about 6 hours on cam every night. I don't mind working daily but I absolutely hate to push myself mentally or physically past 6.5 hours on cam so I can have days off. 6 hours I'm fine with, but 7 hours is too much for me. I currently work about 4-5 hours every other day so this will be a challenge, and I'll probably be sore and exhausted for about 2 weeks, like a new workout routine, but the STFO thread has inspired me that I can do this. I think I'll post this over there too because it seems like there are more frequent check-ins there and I need to hold myself accountable so I don't make excuses and procrastinate.
This is really impressive, $20k a month!! You will make it!!!! Let's do this!!!!
bigbum
09-02-2022, 09:18 PM
all aboard!!!! pooooutttttt poooouttt!!!! i am joining!
my visa appointment has been delayed due to lack of appointments at the embassy. and i cant seem to secure an apartment. ug.
i am feeling really depressed and its been raining a lot here.
my birthday is coming up and i didnt lose the 10 pounds that i wanted to and i gained back the 5 i lost last month.
but... my savings has been going great and i am enjoying my work on cam.
ive been sleeping all day feeling blue and being lazy this week with my period.
it is time to get my shit together.
i have my eye on a few stocks to buy this week.
i might as well make a shit ton of money while i wait for my visa so i dont even need to touch my extra savings for when I move to france.
ive already planned trips on my dream board for
london, a castle in ireland for the spring with my amex points and ofcourse to enjoy the summer somewhere like sardinia or something .
i will be breaking this into small goals
i want to earn $5,000 the next 2 weeks starting tomorrow. $2,500 per week.
all of my bills are paid except for rent $750 and $1000 on 1 more card from expenses.
so id like to do $5000 - $2000 for expenses will give me $3000 savings.
id like to have a total of $5,000 savings by the end of october.
and $10,000 savings by december 31st at the least.
i will be making a separate savings account just for this goal so i can track it easier and see the money really build up.

Oh, I am not making plans anymore, this stupid pandemic AND the war made me stop making such long term plans, for example, the money saved for the camming space at the country side, went into some stuff that came with sudden spike of price increase for everything, including debt interest, paying off the leasing for 4 cars and other things. But, guess who would have grinded the whole summer if she didn't have those savings?
So my plan is to just... save save save save save and I'll see what happens next summer!

I made a vision board on pinterest and I go watch it everytime I wake up or while it's dead at work, haha. I had planners and stuff and honestly, they just don't work for me. They are abandoned in a corner. Pinterest board with a few visuals, quotes that inspire my current hustle and one small plan work better. My new approach is: everything on that mood board can be achieved if you work and stop any other useless activity, that can be done when I take days off.
Just show up in time and make money! haha!

Just my opinion, 200 hours/month consistently is INSANE! I'm averaging 138 hours/month (granted I do have an insane amount of active income streams with SW) and I am at my threshold of ability. So seriously Bravo! Count your wins.

I really want to join in this challenge but last 2-3 years has been very lonely with low accountability and limited/no check in's from other challenge joiners.
This year has been a year of professional growth and consistent high earnings for several active reasons for me. I wish I could say it was easy or no big deal - at least for me - I've had to really increase my ability to be a high performer and work on it every single day, every single week, every single month. Lots of active planning and project management.
Anyone reading this thread, you can do this!!! Create a plan and execute the plan :)

I don't have much to update, haha! The good is that I managed to save money. The bad is that I spent them all for anything else but the initial plan, but I am glad I had the money. As I said above, the war threw me out of my track a little, things were really stressful lately and now I managed to get back on track and do another challenge. Uhhh, I wished it ended up differently, I seriosuly thought last year, that right now I'd cam from a dedicated newly built space at the country side. I am still in my rented camming apartament lololol.

I wish I could say it was easy or no big deal - at least for me - I've had to really increase my ability to be a high performer and work on it every single day, every single week, every single month. Lots of active planning and project management.
Anyone reading this thread, you can do this!!! Create a plan and execute the plan :)
im here!!! id love to work with you on growing more this year in this thread. and i know cutie is down for it! but you are right i noticed so many active members arent here anymore. and i miss them!

so i was feeling fat and weird again today with my skin all broken out. i really didnt want to get on cam. i avoided it for as long as i could at starbucks.
but i ended up with $660 in 2.5 hours! and i had fun.
wow i should log on feeling like shit more often.
things havent been going well with the european bureaucracy. and it has been really bothering me not knowing where i will be living in 3 months
and knowing my lease will be up in january. and the fact that i can afford easily any apartment of my choice , but no one will rent to me because of some stupid paperwork rules
even when i offer 6 months or 1 year up front .
uggg. but atleast cam is going well.
i will keep savings. all i keep thinking is $1000 more in the bank will "fix everything"
even if its not really true , it feels great to see the money building up.
i bought some stocks this week for some mid term holds ( a few months or less)

I don't have much to update, haha! The good is that I managed to save money. The bad is that I spent them all for anything else but the initial plan, but I am glad I had the money. As I said above, the war threw me out of my track a little, things were really stressful lately and now I managed to get back on track and do another challenge. Uhhh, I wished it ended up differently, I seriosuly thought last year, that right now I'd cam from a dedicated newly built space at the country side. I am still in my rented camming apartament lololol.
yes ! i do recall your country side dream. dont let your dream fade . it is still very possible. this year will be your year.

Why did I never realize that this was a thing?? I'm in.
I already joined the 3k/week thread (on the one week of the entire year that I've been unexplainably sick :banghead:) but I love having tiered goals that cover each week, each month, and one for the overall year.
This is my favorite time of the year. Every holiday I hold dear is about to happen. PLUS I'm finally moving out of this ghetto, pest-invested apartment complex next month and I'm not bringing so much as a rug from here to the next place. Which means I need furniture money! Hella birthdays coming up. And, most importantly, my savings account wants attention too!
Let's get it, girls :hyper:

EXACTLY!!! I already have some links saved with the beds and the washer/dryer sets that I want. I have my eye on this dining room table that I refuse to pass up on. But I'm absolutely going to make a vision board.
I had to write out my schedule this morning for the rest of the month so that I know what I'm doing and when I'm doing it. Shift starts in less than 15 so lettsssss goooooo.

mwahah it's where I am now, reading all interior design articles. lol! Never paid attention to my camming space that much, but now I am really interested to create one. It's like 50% ready, I just need to buy some items:)
There is one model on SM and I LOVE her interior and her lightning. When I saw her first time I realized how pleasing it is to look at beautiful woman in beautiful surroundings. It sets the mood:)

yes I am also going to be getting all new furnishings for my new apartment in France. right now I am deciding between a 2 bedroom for 1250 euros or a 1 bedroom for 800 euros.
it is such a hard choice.
2 bed for cam room? or 1 bed to save money.
I am blessed to even have this choice.
I have set aside 4,000 euros for furnishings at Ikea lol.
I love Ikea.

I'd say 2 bedrooms. It will pay off, your mental health will not suffer and it definitely worth all the extra $450. You make that extra in a good day. I have a 1 bedroom apartament and I had to rent extra because it was really mentally tiring to work from same room I sleep. Besides, you gather outfits, toys, etc... you need a personal space for work only.
Speaking from experience, my mental health definitely improved since I have a separate camming space, I rest better and it's so good to just leave the cam space behind and not mix it with the relaxation/ home vibe.
Yessss, the PAX systems are amazing and they look great as a background for cam space too, thanks to those elegant doors they have! Basically gives u a clean visual and storage space!

Thanks! It’s so overdue. This apartment has seen so many of my ups and downs - and I did my first cam show on Streamate here. I have too many memories in this place that nothing else will be able to compete with. But it’s definitely time to go. And no one welcomes the change more than my kids lol. They’re sick of this place too.

All of this.
I’ve been working from home for almost 13 years, although I’ve only been camming for 3 or 4. And being able to physically close the door behind you as you leave “work” and resume life in the remainder of your apartment is a ritual that can’t be understated. Your mind definitely benefits from the separation.

I am so ready for a fall/winter hustlers challenge! The summer slump killed my motivation and then I was sick hospitalized with covid for a month (August) and I’m finally feeling back to my normal self. I’m ready to get back into my hustle and make some progress on my goals!
Timeframe: Sept 7-March 7
High goal: $150,000 ($25k/month)
Low Goal: $120,000 ($20k/month)
I need a big boost to build my house and pay off some of the debt I’ve accumulated from being sick and unable to work. Good luck everyone!

$20k a month is a fucking solid amount!!! You're the proof that camming is still banking!! I keep you the fingers crossed!! How many hours do you put per week for it?

yeah i agree i really want the 2 bed. i am super cheap lol and i really shouldnt be. plus it is a tax deduction in the usa.
do you already have your new place picked out? lol i remmeber when i was little already running to "claim my bed room" i bet your kids have done the same. thats great that they are excited as well for the new place.
congrats . getting a new place, moving or "adulting" especially with kids are all huge accomplishments in their own right.
