Whenever i see the jokes about randoms dropping out of thier jobs to join only fans, i just think of Randy from South Park trying to start only fans

Good call. I left science after my PhD 20 or so years ago. I make more than many of the scientists that I manage. Science is a long, hard path that doesn’t pay well for probably 99% of PhDs.

I owe my financial security to that decision all those years ago.

The fake news is fake news apparently. She has a video on her YouTube where she describes the whole thing and it seems true. However, I don't know what sort of content she does on OnlyFans. She does show the max amount of cleavage possible on YouTube, but I'm not sure if she shows more than that on any other platform. Everything I could find was actual science content, except she is a very attractive lady wearing revealing clothes while telling the story. But I know OnlyFans also does chats for example where pictures don't need to be exchanged at all, people will pay just to talk to an attractive person. She might also do feet pics, which can be highly valuable to some people.

So it's implied she sorta dropped out of school to do porn. But it's nothing like that, she has a couple of degrees already, had a nice side project going with her content creation on multiple platforms including YouTube and didn't see a future for herself with the path she was on. So she switched to doing content creation fulltime.

just checked out her channel. she links to her onlyfans in the about section and her most recent video is titled: "PhD dropout to onlyfans model." your linked article claims she used the rumor to her advantage, so maybe its just that? but cant confirm since the vid is 18+ on youtube and i dont have an account anymore.
