Soon to be new cam model :)
Hey everyone!!! Hope you ladies have been doing well and such. Ahh..feels good to be back on this forum and reading posts. I been looking into cam modeling for a couple months now..and actually thinking about becoming a cam model. --please bare w/ me..this is gonna be kind of long..and I just want some input and such. so if this isn't FOR you.. maybe don't read. lol. ha.
So I finished my associates degree back in Aug *Sociology* yay! so glad to be done and took a month off. Still live at home...and actually trying to find a real job. something part time..like Kohls for example or being a nurse aid somewhere. I don't know what Id actually do w/ my degree now.. live in a small town..don't have funds 2 move..plus waiting on boyfriend to finish his degree which is no problem.. but even if someone happened w/ us..I just dont wanna move yet (far away)..but we* do want to get our own place (sometime next year). but as stated..if something happens.. I want my own place regardless lol. Also I need my own car instead of sharing one.. such a hassle. lol.
I am not to sure how cam modeling cam into effect in my life..but its something I been checking up on off and on. and just really deciding to give it a try. I actually looked at HD web cams yesterday. ( any suggestions on a good one 2 buy???). I really just wanna get into camming for money purposes. and also give me something 2 do while on the computer. I am on a lot and facebook is boring w/ everyones drama (to each their own on what they post) and really nothing else 2 do. I do have a life and go out ..but money is tight and don't like relying on my boyfriend so much. ya know. he has his own bills and such 2. so yeah.
So w/ a regular job (and yes I know camming can be a regular job for people :) ) and camming as my playful lets get this money from stupid guys type of job.. I mean why not right? lol. I would be pretty set money wise. Also I am pretty much a night owl..esp on weekends. Also my boyfriend is fine w/ me camming..maybe not so much giving out photos.. (I have been watching girls on SM and such just to get a feel on how they do things) and he also going to set up an VPN (I think its called) for me too..just to be on the safe side. But I'm glad he supports my decision. (& just so everyone knows..or questions.. my boyfriend is in military and is currently looking for a new job) So he is no free loader. lol
So I am thinking starting on SM hopefully before end of this month. & maybe another one..not sure yet. But I do have a few questions on SM.
1. do you get paid every week and what are the payment options.
2. I thought I read somewhere they tap your shows or something? sorry if im wrong..but should I use many cam or something that has my name on the screen? (not sure how else to explain this..lol. )
3. I know if u make over 600 bucks you have to file taxes.. where or how should I get this done? Is H&R Block just ok? I have read some ladies just do their own taxes w/ some type of software. but I can't think of the name.
4. How do gold shows work. ( if someone can really dummie this down for me..cause I suck at math.. lol that be great)
ok thats about it I think for now. lol. But I am actually excited 2 do this. I know it takes time and effort and I will run into some douche bags..lol. but thats ok. But hoping I can find my niche..w/out showing off 2 much in free chat. I know u can't be fully nude.. but showing ur boobies is ok..right? lol Last night me and my b/f was watching the girls and one was fully clothed the whole time to start her gold show..which I thought was awesome. Nothing again the girls who don't do this or what have you.. just thought it was interesting this girl is fully clothed and it did not take her long to reach her goal. :)
<3 much love ladies
ps--I'm not good w/ cam modeling lingo..all 2 much yet. so yeah. lol.

Sm pays weekly. U can try out check or payoneer for payments
hmm the second one you asked...well thats totally up to you to be honest, if it makes u feel better lol
ummm
with taxes ive always used Turbo Tax.
Once you sign up and have a acc on SM they tell you step by step directions for the GS's. All the info you need is there once your "approved" for GS's. Some girls get approved right away...me on the other hand was camming for about 5-6 months before I was able to do them. **OH had to edit as I re read your question...well say your GOAL is $200...thats not what YOU the CAM GIRL takes home, you get a CUT of that...which is 35 %.
Good luck BB !! ;)

Re: Soon to be new cam model :)
I'm curious what career you were going for with sociology and why you chose to take that. I don't recall ever meeting anyone who majored in that.
You've definitely found the best resource you could ever find in this board! I wish I had the knowledge I've gained here when I first started. Read and apply what you learn here and you'll likely do very well. :)
Re: Soon to be new cam model :)
Thanks darling. well my major was psychology. but changed it to finish quicker. honestly no clue what I actually do w/ Sociology if I actually wanna purse it later down the road.
but yes im glad i also found this board. hoping to buy a cam this week!!! My laptop is a lil older..has a build in cam but don't think thats gonna work. lol.
Re: Soon to be new cam model :)
I know how it all can be confusing. I just started on SM myself and don't know too much about the payment thing, I know they offer checks and payoneer. I would choose payoneer, myself. As for gold shows, I've been on SM for over a month and am not approved for gold shows, so can't tell you much about how to WORK them, but with the math, when I do go into a show with a girl and she does the gold show, her goal is (for example) $200... She gets 35% of that, unless she's on daily pay, and then she gets 30%. So whatever their goal is or whatever they actually end up getting pledged, it's 35% or 30% if you do the DP, so multiply the $200 times .35 or .30 .... So a $200 show = $70 payout on 35%, if that makes sense. So you want to try to set your goal so that you make good money off of your show and don't do $1 gold shows... Are you really only worth $1? Just throwing that out there! MY experience with girls from watching shows -- talk, be friendly, have HD and sound, don't put the cam on your tits and sit there silently with a frown -- engage the guys, they will engage you :) I use a logitech C920, but I won't lie, it's finicky, but I do love the image, it is very clear and crisp and I prefer logitech. Any other questions, I'd love to help, I know there's a lot of new-girl threads here, but it can be a lot to read through, so any exact questions, PM me, I know its hard to really get the hang of what you're confused about just through a general thread sometimes, good luck!!
