    Default Your opinions, please!


    I made this today, as well as posted a little blog entry on my Tumblr with advice for girls loking to join the industry. I linked back to a few SW threads. Is there anything I should add to this video or that I should add to the video comments?

    SarahTime just did a poll of verified cam girls and their earnings, she posted the results on her blog here: http://lifeofacamgirl.com/2013/01/ho...m-models-make/

    That's probably the most honest piece I've seen about how much cam girls really make.

    Is the comment about Livejasmin not being a main site sarcastic or not?

    Great article by the way, loved the honesty. Makes me feel better knowing at least im average but then my earnings reflect my time and effort, which really could do with improvement and commitment. Thank you

    Sorry hun, the first line was directed at sarahtimes blog. But, yeah enjoyed the vid and totally agree with the media issue, they make us all out to be belle du jours of camming or desperados with crack habits and a dozen kids to feed.
    Maybe, an addition would to talk about the consequences of this work too and how certain professions frown upon us due to bringing disrepute to the career, blah, blah pompous, double standard waffling etc. Thats something I wish someone would have made clear to me before I started. It can close so many doors because of societys lack of understanding. xx

    I'm sure there are some models who use LJ as their main site, but no one who took the survey said that LJ was their main site, which was no surprise to me.

    Normally I have all pics/sigs/ect turned off, I thought that was why I just saw whitespace above her text so I turned it back on... ...but I still see nothing(I see Jaana's sig though ZOMG). Caught the URL through the quotation though, wth?

    Aannnyyway, awesome vid! I love the post and actually sent it to a friend of mine who is considering camming. Looks like I have a lot of blogs to read!

    ....but great video, I watched it earlier.
    I wish there was more coverage on real earnings.. Sorta like Sarah's survey.
    Then again just as many new girls might rush into it hearing 4k/mo rather than 34k/mo.. I know there's a HUGE difference but with the economy the way it is...like you said everyone's trying to make an extra buck.
    Loved your insight, hope to see more vlogs soon

    ooooo i was really hoping you found and posted a link about LJ but its just a link to the "how to use the search feature thread" ouch! btw how do you think I found this thread? The title is "Re: Your opinions, please!" nowhere is the site mentioned in this threads title, the search feature brought me here. Also, a lot of girls prefer to just use intitials such as LJ, SM, ect. when referring to specfic sites and the search feature on here will not let you do a 2 letter search so I am pretty much fucked. Can anyone else give or direct me to some real info please? Thanks!

    Keepitclassy (lol), the "real" info is right here on stripperweb. Perhaps you should advise "your sister" to do do a search if she is the one who's going to be starting there. It's not that hard. None of us have the time to spoon feed you the information. I was actually about *this* close to posting some threads on LJ but when you come in with a snarky attitude people become less inclined to help so... Yeah this is Jaana's, thread anyway no need to derail. My apologies, Jaana!

    sorry jana. I've decided to just go ahead and start a whole new thread called "The LiveJasmin Thread" not sure why there isn't one already since there is "The Streamate Thread","The AdultWork Thread" ect. Hopefully it will help me and all those after me who come looking for infomation.

    This is a great video. I think one thing that is never addressed when women start thinking about entering the adult business is the abuse. There are tons of people who either just want to get a rise out of you or don't agree with what you do and will let you know it. And that doesn't necessarily mean by men either. I receive more awful comments offline from women than men. It's a catty and mentally draining job and you need thick skin for it. I wish more women understood that they need a strong resolve for it.
