Alternative career

It's Friday afternoon as I write this and winding down for last couple of hours of working week, working from home. I'm idly thinking "there must be an alternative, fun, way to make a living" and I wonder about Only Fans and the like.

Could I make a living doing the thing I love? Would a live stream of me just bound and gagged inescapably and totally immobilised, with a clock alongside me showing current time be a money maker? Would people pay to tune in?

If so, I could make money by literally sitting on my arse all day!

Anyway, best get back to answering some emails lol

There's no doubt you could make money this way, although bondage is obviously more niche than posing nude so don't expect to make the money they make. There's also a few more things to consider:

1. Are you comfortable with posting pictures or videoes of yourself doing bondage?

2. There's a good chance you'll have to deal with creeps some point.

Also, if you're being paid to do bondage, it's no longer a hobby, it's a job and should be treated as such. While I'm sure bondage models still enjoy what they do, they still treat it as a job first and foremost. Making bondage your job may kill some of the passion you have for it.

I'm not trying to rain on your parade, but it's always good to have a reality check.

All valid points, and some that had crossed my mind too. But it was just idle daydreaming, and in no way am I going to pursue it, for a myriad of other reasons too. But I was curious what the general view on it was.

It does sound like something I'd enjoy. I have posted a few selfbondage videos on Boundhub. Accidentally left one public and got a lot of heat for it. Getting paid to do something I enjoy would definitely be work, it just wouldn't feel like it.
I share both views here ironically enough.

As the old saying goes, if your is something you love, then you'll never work a day in your life.

I had also thought of combining my other hobby and creating a games review channel. Except I'm bound and gagged with controller in my hand. I would gag talk throughout, and put in sub titles post production!

[mention]wannabetiedup[/mention] Understandable, I do daydreaming like this as well. For me, being a crossdressing bondage model would be a lot of fun, but not really feasible.

That idea of playing games while bound and gagged is an interesting one. I'd likely watch that.

So a couple of thumbs up for the gaming review channel! Food for thought!

Heyo. I've done bondage modelling before and started an OnlyFans at the beginning of the year. It's really good fun and I adore having people watch my stuff. I've found I'm getting faster at doing shoots as I get a better idea of lighting, angles, etc.

But...

It takes a lot of organisation and there's a LOT of time wasters in this business. Some people think porn grows on trees, and don't understand that you have bills to pay. I've literally had people message me being like, "Mister, you're so gorgeous. I'd do anything to see more of you, and to make you happy".
"Well my OnlyFans is $5, or I do customs from $5 if you like."
"F**k off with that s**t".
LOL!!!!!

I like that idea. I always thought of some cool conditions. Like if you lose a Mario game you have to be tied and gagged dressed like Peach. Or if you play Tekken for every round you lose you have to add a layer of rope or tape. Or play online and when you lose against your first opponent gag yourself. Second opponent tie ankles. And it goes on until you win enough or you're fully bound.
