As Financial Domination continues to grow, less enthusiasm is required when putting on a show.

RE: Reed Amber S66's Resident Fox - Chat & Pics
What Being a Cam Girl Taught Me About How Men Think
Adult performer Reed Amber says she learned sexual confidence by working in porn—but got a crash-course in human psychology by webcamming.

For me, it was very much about trying to figure out a personality. I'd play a sweet, innocent role, and then lure them in. When they found out how fucked-up and kinky I was, they'd be like, "Wow, I want to talk to you for hours!" Then I'd think, You fool, I'm raking it in.
This is interesting because it highlights the necessary but almost soulless make money at any cost mindset that a lot of presenters sort of need.
On a slow day I'd make £150 [$203] a day, and on a good day £600 [$812]. You take home 60 percent of that, and the rest the platform takes as a cut. It could be psychologically hard, because the money varied a lot from day to day.
£90 on a bad day and £360 on a good day. On top of what a presenter can earn from being on TV and any other potential income from wishlists, findom, cash point meets, paypigs, snapchat, onlyfans, personal websites, stripping, escorting, sugar daddies etc. It's surprising that some hosts have to beg for money from their fans to go on holiday LOL
Some clients stick with you. There was one guy who was a nurse, and he was spending so much money on me. After a while I turned around to him and said, "You clearly don't have the money for this. I think you maybe have a problem." He'd come online most days. Sometimes I'd put my rate down when we were chatting, because I worried about how much money he was spending. Just because you're taking money off someone, doesn't mean that you're not thinking about whether it is ethically right.
This was the most interesting part because I think 90% of presenters probably don't have this empathetic mindset towards their punters.
some days it's good, other days it's boring and exhausting. Webcamming can make you lazy, though. You think, why would I work in an office for eight hours when I could make the same amount of money in one hour camming? It can take over from your other ambitions and dreams.
This is probably why most presenters keep coming back after leaving the channels.
Privacy is a huge issue for lots of people who webcam, but I'm lucky because I'm very open with my family about what I do. I don't really care that people can find me online. It's only a video of me masturbating. You don't get to have the real thing!
More presenters need Reed's mindset when it comes to TV, webcamming and empathy towards most punter's financial restraints.
She's one of a very small bunch of presenters that I'd love to share a pint and just have a laugh with down the local.
