A SOLO mum-of-two who was living off food stamps now makes £100,000 a month with her side hustle.
Rebecca Goodwin, 28, says she even made enough cash with her saucy side job to buy a £230,000 house outright – and a £45,000 Porsche.

She says the way her bank account looks now is a stark contrast to how it used to be – when she battled to feed her two daughters.
That’s because after struggling to get by for so long, while sitting £15,000 in debt, she decided to start an OnlyFans as a side hustle.
In less than two weeks she made more than £1,000 selling her adult content and now makes a whopping £100,000 a month.
The mum, from Derbyshire, said: “We were living on six bags of food full of tins of soup and lots of Uncle Bens for over a month.
“I couldn’t even afford to throw my daughter a first birthday party.
“I started Only Fans out of desperation and ended up making £1.6k in the first 10 days. It was madness.”
Rebecca says owning her own four-bedroom home, and a fancy car, were things she would have never even dreamed of three years ago.
That’s because there was a time when she couldn’t afford her gas or electricity bills, or formula for her baby.

The mum said: “I was a single mum and I couldn’t work as I had a baby and wouldn’t be able to afford childcare for her.
“I had a lot of guilt over the things I couldn’t provide for them.
“I had asked for my third food voucher and they had talked about getting social services involved because I was struggling.
“I was looking for things I could do from home.
“I knew Only Fans was a massive risk but I was desperate.”
Rebecca started her page in April 2019, and couldn’t believe how quickly it took off.
She said: “I had dipped my toe in by seeing if people would buy content on Snapchat but I was still shocked.
“I started making £10k a month and now I make between £60k and £100k a month.”
The mum said she couldn’t apply for a mortgage because OnlyFaqns isn’t considered stable, she had a bad credit score because of her past, and was £15,000 in debt.
So, she came up with another solution.
I had a lot of guilt over the things I couldn’t provide for them.

Rebecca said: “I saved for six months to buy a four-bed house outright.”
Looking back, the mum says she started the page to try to give her daughters, now four and 11, a better life – and is so glad she did.
Plus, her family and friends are supportive, too.
She said: “My mum is all for it. She loves it.
“They are all very accepting because they saw how in trouble I was.
“My eldest knows what I do and she’s not bothered.
“My youngest saw a gnome toy as I was opening it when it came through the post, and she said ‘is this Santa Claus?’
“If they grow up around a sex-positive environment it is normalised.”
Rebecca admitted she’s known for different toys- including silicone versions of corn on the cob, an umbrella, carrot, a screw champagne bottle and a traffic cone.
She added: “I’m known as traffic cone girl a lot of the time because I have sex toy traffic cone.”
Rebecca said people also send her strange requests, adding: “A guy asked me to poo in a Tupperware and send it in the post but I didn’t do that.
“I’ve sent dirty bathwater and underwear in the post before.”
