    OnlyFans and high school teacher absolutely do not mix. There is a 0% chance one will be able to properly educate students in that environment.

      If only we paid them a living wage so they wouldn’t have to seek additional income to survive.

        If only we paid them a living wage


        ST. LOUIS…Her yearly teaching salary was $42,000

        In 2016, the median household income in the City of St. Louis was $42,000. source (expand the dropdown: What does this indicator measure’)

        She made as much teaching as the median household income in the area by herself (completely ignoring the rest of her household). Since when is that not a living wage?

    The important piece of this to me is this: She made $1 mil on OnlyFans and $42k/year as a teacher. She wants to be a teacher despite making plenty of money from other sources. This tells me that unless you have other evidence of impropriety she’s someone we want in the classroom. It also reinforces my stance, along with plenty of other studies that have been performed, that a universal basic income won’t stop people from working.

    Pay people better and we’ll just keep working because we like it. It’s part of being human, but we shouldn’t be suffering to survive at the same time.

      You can’t retire on $1m net worth. That’s not even a house in lots of areas.

      It definitely helps. But giving up my career for $1m would be a very bad investment.

        Add in that id you don’t blow it all, you get to count the interest income. A long term investment gets about 6-7% per year. That’s actually more than the teaching job pay.
