Sex sells, and it is a lucrative, flourishing industry

Sex sells, and it is a lucrative, flourishing industry
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on Whatsapp

OnlyFans, an adult website based in the UK, made $1.3 billion in revenue with a profit of $500 million in in 2023 selling nothing but sex.

This is where it gets interesting.

The British Government earned a tax of £118 million from Only Fans parent company last year.

For proper context, the UK government made more tax revenue from a porn site than, to say, it did from North Sea oil royalties and license fees (£69m).

Perhaps more incredibly is that OnlyFans is entirely owned by billionaire Leonid Radvinsky, who is attached below and has now earned over $1 billion in dividends from the company in the last three years.

Last year, he was paid a record $472 million dividend by his company.

Radvinsky bought OnlyFans from its British cofounders for an unknown sum in 2018. Forbes now estimates Radvinsky is worth $3.8bn.

OnlyFans now only has 42 employees; that’s down from 52 last year. That’s $30.9m in revenue per employee.

Also, OnlyFans has 4.1 million content creators on the website, and those content creators earned $5.3 billion in earnings last year.

This means the average content creator on the platform is earning $108 per month and Averagely, a user spent 2 dollar a month on the app.

The lessons here are simple.

Sex sells, and it is a lucrative, flourishing industry.

Being a pimp is a rewarding hustle, as we have seen in the story of billionaire owner of Only Fans, Leonid Rad in sky, who is originally from Ukraine.

To earn $1 billion in 3 years from just being a pimp is incredible.

It is ironical that OnlyFans is the most successful tech start-up in the UK as of today.

It is crazy that OnlyFans is not a fintech nor an investment app, but rather a wildly successful porn app. .

We truly live in extraordinary crazy times.
