Oh boy… you’re in for an actual deal with with this text. This isn’t going to be your standard informative article — it’s going to be an opinion piece. For these of you who haven’t heard, professional tennis participant Sachia Vickery has joined OnlyFans.
Pay attention, I don’t care about OnlyFans one bit. If you wish to be on the platform, do your factor. However there’s one thing about Sachia Vickery that makes me elevate an eyebrow at her selections.
For starters, she turned professional again in 2011. She’s presently 30 years outdated and made a complete of $2,173,000 throughout her professional profession as an ATP professional. Whenever you break it down, that’s roughly $155,000 per 12 months over her 14-year profession.
Now, I get it… being a professional is dear. You pay for journey, meals, coaches (which is a large expense), getting racquets re-strung on a regular basis, and many others. Look, that’s no completely different than being a golfer or bodybuilder. It’s what it’s. Both put up or shut up. You made the selection to be a tennis participant.
I do know this as a result of there was a degree throughout my profession after I needed to go professional taking part in tennis. I performed all of it the best way up by school, the place I performed at Penn State. Fortunately, the varsity paid for all our lodging. However taking part in within the ranks of the USTA, I needed to pay for all my very own journey to play in tournaments, in addition to the price simply to play.
There simply got here a time after I needed to sit down and are available to the belief that I’m not going to go professional. And even when I do, I’d by no means make sufficient cash to outlive. I simply don’t really feel that Sachia Vickery ever had a dialog with herself about her expectations.
I absolutely perceive when Sachia Vickery says that she wants to earn more money. However there are another issues I consider we have to talk about as effectively.
Disclaimer: This text is an opinion piece and my private ideas on Sachia Vickery turning to OnlyFans and charging males to go on dates.
Becoming a member of OnlyFans After Solely Making $2M as an Athlete
I’m simply going to say it… $155k per 12 months is nothing as knowledgeable athlete. Add in her bills to play on the tour, and she or he’s in all probability telling the reality that she’s making subsequent to nothing.
What this makes me come to understand is that maybe she’s merely not so good as she thinks she is. her report on-line, she’s 380-308 (a minimum of after I appeared on-line on the time of scripting this).
I imply, come on. She almost has the identical variety of wins as losses. That’s nothing to write down house about.
Her greatest rating was again in 2018 when she was ranked 73 on the earth (not unhealthy in any respect). As we speak, she’s hovering round 559. She’s not getting higher with every passing 12 months — she’s getting worse. She’s misplaced within the first or second spherical of each grand slam she’s ever performed in.
So, once more… possibly she’s simply not so good as she thinks she is.
The truth that you must be a part of OnlyFans to herald more cash ought to inform you every part you have to learn about your profession. It might be time to hold it up in case you can’t make ends meet financially. When you have to beg guys to pay $12.99 for a month-to-month subscription, that positive looks as if a final resort.
However wait… it will get even worse.
$1,000 to Go on a Date?
After I heard about this one, I couldn’t cease laughing. Her relationship life have to be so boring that nobody needs to stay round and be dedicated to her. She talked about how dates she’s been on have been a waste of time, and males act foolishly, and she or he now fees males $1,000 to go on a date along with her. Perhaps you’re the issue and never your date?
Deposit $1,000 to go on a date. LOL. Sorry. That’s probably the most ridiculous factor I’ve ever heard. For those who walked down the road and requested 10 individuals who Sachia Vickery is, not a single particular person would have the ability to inform you.
Sachia Vickery just isn’t a family title, however she seems like her time is price $1,000? What message is that giving potential dates who’re in all probability making more cash than her?
However significantly… how low do you must go? There’s nothing enticing that this lady is doing for my part.
She’s clearly not crushing it in life. Her relationships sound about as enjoyable as an appendicitis. And her whining about funds has me questioning her motivation to really do higher and earn more money. As a result of we are able to all see her profession isn’t going wherever, and her rankings proceed to tank.
If she had been actually struggling to make ends meet financially, I’ve two choices for her:
- Work and prepare tougher to enhance as a tennis participant
- Notice your profession isn’t going to offer for you, and pivot by getting a job
My guess is that she simply continues to whine and complain in between posting on OnlyFans and happening her bogus $1,000 dates, which makes me query if the lads paying this aren’t simply simps or full losers. I’d by no means pay somebody to go on a date. I could pay for the meal or leisure, however a deposit simply to safe a date? GTFO.
Remaining Ideas
On the finish of the day, do you. However man… the alternatives you’re making don’t appear to be good ones. There are a whole lot of methods to fulfill males and earn money, however the best way you’re tackling each is a bit of questionable.
I hope you discover a man and a method to enhance your funds. Perhaps some self-reflection and dealing on your self will give you higher luck sooner or later.
