Had to supplement her $42,000 per year teacher salary with OF and made nearly $1 million in six months (almost 50 times as her salary) before the school caught wind of it and forced her to resign. Got a new job out of education and was fired five days later when they discovered news articles about her.

Edit: To those basically saying she had it coming because she made her OF account public…

  1. Sex work is real, valid work.
  2. There is nothing wrong with sex work. Sex-shaming is Puritanical horseshit.
  3. “But her students could find her OF!” is a problem their parents should have to solve. It is not her responsibility to use an alias, because of points 1 and 2.
  4. Every other argument criticizing her for her sex work during her non-teaching hours is fucking moot.

    Why look for a regular job? Continue OF for another year, retire with this fuck you money and do whatever you want.

      I think she’s just doing this for free promotion. Every article that’s written about her she probably gets tons of new subscribers.

        If you follow the link another helpful commenter left, it’s pretty obvious she’s not interested in being an educator. She’s using the controversy to promote her dick-sucking videos.

          I mean… for that salary and the work you must do, I am surprised anyone is interested in being a teacher.

      “Not having to get up and go to a 9-to-5 has been tough on my mental health,” Coppage said.

      Sounds insane to me, but whatever, different strokes for different folks.

        It’s about structure and routine. A lot of people hospitalized for psych report issues with too much free time. And for a lot of people one of their only protective factors is a stable and satisfying professional life

        Most people need something to do. Being free all the time is rarely good for mental health.

        I have no idea how people like this exist.

        If it’s your own business or hobby then cool. But people out there feel the need to do some sort of basic job is crazy to me.

        A million in 6 months, I think if she could keep up near that for a couple of years, she could invest in something safe and live off of the gains.

            Idunno, just didn’t do the math. I’ve definitely done it before and knew that at typical safe interest rates you can live comfortably off of the interest of…. Something in the realm of 1-10 million.

                It was a vague statement, based off a vague memory, about some shit that doesn’t matter. Calm down.

                    lol, I love how my

                    Calm down.

                    Was read as

                    CALM THE FUCK DOWN NOW. CHILL OUT. FOR FUCKS SAKE WHY WON’T YOU CALM THE FUCK DOWN?

                    That seems like a bit of a stretch, but hey, you’re the master estimator here. And apparently I’m just a psychotic child.

                    Your first message to me was fine, and my response was even keeled, simply explaining why I said what I did. But then you tacked on “crazy” in your follow up, which seemed a bit unnecessary. Now you’re calling me child. Idk….

                    Do you need a hug?
