Re: Why do you cam? think real hard..
I am camming to be able to give my kids the life they deserve and to be able to afford my husband's medical bills. I of course have immediate needs to be met, but will also begin savings for buying a house hopefully soon. Obviously with 3 kids and hubby being sick it's nearly impossible to work a full time job and be there when they need me so camming is my best option. Plus I can make more than just ends meet once I get everything going the way I want it to go.

MONEY
To not have to worry where the next month's rent/ bills are coming from
To not have to work a shitty job, 9-5 for ridiculously low pay
To be my own boss and not jump through a million hoops just to get/ stay in/ progress in a damn job
To avoid bitches/ bastards/ politics
To work less than i ever have before
Money
Money
MONEY!!!!!!!

Re: Why do you cam? think real hard..
i cam because i want to be successful and this is what's bringing in the most money right now for jobs im willing or qualified to do. im about to graduate college and owe over 60,000 in student loans. Even if i got a job in the field that im majoring in, an entry level position especially in this economy would not bring in the money that im wanting. I'm hoping that this short lived camming career will pay off my student loans, pay off my house and put a down payment on another house, and leave me some money to start another business venture when im ready to quit camming. I know its a far stretch but you gotta dream big right? Plus i do this for my sanity. All though it drives me insane sometimes, i would be going ten times more crazy at a 9-5 working for some asshole doing 60+ hour work weeks. And yeah im not gonna lie, im a freak... getting paid to jack off is bomb.com.

Re: Why do you cam? think real hard..
I started out camming because it was part of the scene I was in way back when. Then I stopped.
I started camming again because my disability restricts the work I can do, so other than phone sex, there were limited options. Phone sex was boring to me and I missed being able to use facial expressions to convey emotion.
So here I am now. My motivation? Paying bills, debt and carving out a future for myself.

Re: Why do you cam? think real hard..
I used to be a stripper and I loved it, so camming gives me that again without all the hassle. I like the money but that is an added bonus for me. I really do love the work, all of it. Peforming, blogging, marketing, the whole lot.

Re: Why do you cam? think real hard..
i cam because i like being able to drop everything to help Master
i cam because making 100 in 2 hours is more than most people make in a day
i cam because anxiety makes it hard to work a "real job"
i cam because the things i can use as tax deductions are fucking amazing

Nail - head.
I'm a little older than the average camgirl so I need to have at least a 1 year cushion plus something to invest. Age combined with my decision to sacrifice NO MORE for men (I blame 50% of my current situation to my poor partnering choices) and to remain single, my number is considerably higher so I have a feeling my retirement date of "Easter-ish" may have to be extended. On the positive side of that though we're all that much closer for the amount of effort we have invested, especially after this week alone.
I'm exhausted but still have the drive to forge ahead, just a little slower in pace. It's all about ME now. I'm getting what I want and not giving up what I want because somewhere behind me is a man who wants something else.

Re: Why do you cam? think real hard..
I only work a part time job which covers rent, transit, groceries ... you know, the necessities. Camming allows me to visit my parents and my boyfriend, go out on occasion, buy the occasional treat, etc.
I used to cam as a necessity (no job at all!) and it was what covered rent, transit, groceries. :p
But now that I have my part time job, I feel better about camming, it is just "extra income" although still important!
Oh yeah, it is also (often) fun! I love chatting with some people, meeting all sorts of different people, being able to look ridiculously sexy at work (face it, I don't look all that amazing in business dress) and hey I have an excuse to buy lingerie and crazy sex toys!

Re: Why do you cam? think real hard..
I do not find that camming keeps me from worrying...
Please tell me what the hell u guys are talking about
"camming keeps me from worrying about rent/bills"
LMAOSFH. WHAT?!? Less you have ONE CLIENT who paypals you MONEY TO PAY OFF YOUR RENT AND BILLS every month on the dot that you can trust, you are going to have to do alot of camshows to pay that rent and those bills honey. IT CERTAINLY worries me to have to rely on these idiodic perverts to pay my rent and bills every month...maybe it is just me but wow! I WISH I was that worry free due to camming.
NOT trying to be rude but I was just like...what? These girls must have some whales or some really cheap rent...

Re: Why do you cam? think real hard..
I like the money , I like the attention, I like the money , I want the money , I need the money , did I mention the money ? Yes the money , if I won the lotto tomorrow, I think I'd cope just fine without the extra attention haha but that line always works when people ask me if I shouldn't be doing something I get pleasure from . All that lovely attention , how would I live without it .... 6k a month in my bank and I think I'd cope . :P

Re: Why do you cam? think real hard..
Like everyone else has already said, I LOVE THE MONEY! Camming allows me something else though- freedom.
Before this, I was walking a different path, and completely reliant on my rents for money.
Now, I'm fully independent and it feels great! I want to be a flight attendant, but that is a very competitive industry and It may take a while till I get a job. In the meantime, this is perfect!
I love camming, it's like the laziest job ever at times! I get to sit around and be sexy, it builds my self esteem way up (which for me used to be an issue, but no longer!) and masturbate on cam and GET PAID for it! (sometimes, I don't even have to do that!)
What other job can you travel with so easily, as well? As long as I have internet connection, my laptop and webcam- anywhere is my office! It's brilliant!
Seriously, love this job. I'll probably continue to cam even when I get a job at an airline!

Re: Why do you cam? think real hard..
Can wake up whenever I want.

Re: Why do you cam? think real hard..
moneymoneymoney :) i have a great paying part time job but it's not enough by itself. with camming & clip sales (surprisingly mostly clip sales) i can double my income. soon i will be able to pad my savings, live on my own, have a nice car (well, according to me anyway :P) bought outright & 100% support myself. YAY :D

Re: Why do you cam? think real hard..
I cam so I can pay my way through uni, pay for the extra courses that go with my degree and make me more empolyable after graduation, hoping to have a huge savings fund for house and business start up in an industry that I love, so a have a nest egg for my oh and our future kiddies
I love camming so I can have a future, I live in a country of high unemployment two thirds of which are women and where the majority feel that the government have let them down big time to the point of give it five years and there will be no country left! Yes im thinking of moving to richer climes hehe! At the end of the day I dont care if others see me as sleezy or stupid etc im doing this for my future and I dont regret it for one minute!

Re: Why do you cam? think real hard..
I love showing off.
I'm an exhibitionist anyway, why not make money off it?
To be financially secure.
I love meeting new people.

Re: Why do you cam? think real hard..
Im a full time student and this is the only job I've ever had that allows me to make good money withou neglecting my education.
I hate 9-5's and dealing with people and a boss
I get paid to be sexy or even just talk!
It motivates me to stay in shape and care for my body
My sex life has improved
Im finally starting to get out of debt
-
Re: Why do you cam? think real hard..
so i can pay my bills.
my disabilities make it difficult to hold down a normal job, so i appreciate the flexibility of camming and the other self-employment work i do.
-
Re: Why do you cam? think real hard..
I didnt want to find a 9-5 so I could leave my son in daycare all week and then what little time i WOULD have with him I would be high strung about housework, school (i go online), etc...
Plus I have G cup tittayysss and they gotta be good for something other than back aches and failed attempts at breastfeeding :P
-
Re: Why do you cam? think real hard..
I do it for the freedom and to be my own "boss" plus of course the money potential.
Plus it can be the primary or secondary job at any time so it is Never interfering with other jobs unless you want it too. * unless you want to work more for more money*
But it adds up with anything else I do and with the freedom and flexibility plus money potential to work more over time than the regular traditional working person plus the opportunity to make bigger paydays, I can have the funding to pay off ALL dept * Goal be dept free even from school and medical bills*
Then to be able to save money for other business endeavors as well as live a fulfilling life is why I do it. ;D

Re: Why do you cam? think real hard..
because i spent 10 years working shitty retail jobs, with crap pay, taking shit from bosses and customers from 9-6 5 days a week.
and not a chance in hell of doing anything else, cant go to uni to be something better because the rent wont get paid whilst im there
so you're stuck in shitty retail feeling like some corperate SLAVE. then you work your ass off for sales and such... working till midnight with no thanks........ and you go home with £200 a week for 40 hours work
i was so depressed ! my life was rubbish... funny how all that can be solved with something i was given for free when i was born - A FEMALE BODY. haha

Re: Why do you cam? think real hard..
You ladies have made me seriously reconsider possibly doing cam work! (In a good way! :) I am a former dancer, but I am older (31) and I have some weight to lose. I want to go back to dancing, but I think I may actually do a combination of the two (dancing a few days a week but also doing cam work). I definitely agree with the girl who said she had made poor partnership choices and wanted to remain single. My husband left me a couple of months ago, and at the current time I am on SSI. I am moving to Ft. Lauderdale in a week from small town Ohio. I will be staying in a shared room environment but I will be eventually moving to my own place, and when I do, I would like to have an income that allows me to be working out at a gym, be financially independent, and be able to travel whenever I want, as well as pay off my school loans and go to college. I was always self-conscious about possibly doing masturbation in front of a camera, but honestly, you ladies have made me feel a bit more confident because every one of you are different and you all say you don't have to be a perfect model figure to do it. I also really want to get my breasts enlarged, and I know it will cost a lot of cash!! I will be looking into doing this when I move into my own place in a couple of months. I really want to say that this site is an amazing help source and thanks to all of you for your great advice - both in the stripping and the cam site forums!! :)

Re: Why do you cam? think real hard..
$300 for a 40 hour week on my feet all day in high heels as a bank teller giving out money...
$300 for a 4 hour night in sexy lingerie and high heels taking that money back haha!
why would I ever want to deal with that again, if i ever get back into the real world I am going to have a hard time with a set hourly rate. My income depends on me and my effort, not on what you decide you want to pay me vs how long im there working for some asshole boss.

Re: Why do you cam? think real hard..
To have an alternative to dancing i like dancing but i live in a city where theres only one good club....
and the girls suck management kinda sucks and im just burnt out.... camming couldnt have come at a better time :)
i could never go back to making 10$/ hour so this is the next best thing aside from dancing
-money
-freedom
-flexibility
-piece of mind
-and i do have alot of fun
