Phone sex jobs require a commitment that is full time plus. If you put in little effort, you will not see much benefit. This is a job. The money you can make all depends on you. It is an understatement to think it’s brainless work. If you want that, well go be a robot at some corporate service job. If you are looking for true independence, and real wages, then that takes effort. Yes, I am using effort a lot in this message. Thing is when you just sit back and expect to make money without doing much else, then yes, you will fail.
In the beginning of my working in the phone sex circuit I was taking online classes full time. I did not put in a lot of effort and made very little. Fast forward a decade I am doing great income wise. I changed companies. I went through many rollercoasters with adjustments. The final outcome has me in a far better income bracket and quality of life than I have from the beginning. I now even get respect for the work I do, when others tried saying it’s not a real job. It is.
