Hello there colleges. I'm 24 Years old and have been camping for about 2 and a half years, i didn't had much job xperience before that but nowdays I'm going back to university and tought a lot that i would have to keep the camming for other 3 Years, I'm afraid to be 27 and just have that as a job. What are your thoughts on this? Should I find a different job? Or just stick with camming and concéntrate on getting my degree?

Getting a degree is a good plan B, so I would personally choose that. I am afraid that most companies will look down on you if you put that on your CV, so it isn't a great idea... I would suggest finding a part-time job that will help your resume out.
My experience: I've got a bachelor degree and currently working full time in my own business. Since I'm my own boss, I don't have a fixed salary, and there are some months that I don't get enough money from work and that's why I starterd camming. I'm very new to this, but I think it might be a good way to icrease my income. My suggestion to you: have a plan and stick to your plan. I agree with @MallorieReese that maybe you should try to get a part time job and cam when it's necessary to have a better income in a determined month. About college, keep it up, it's never a bad idea to get education!

Unless you want to stay in this industry as a career - I think it is a good idea to find ways to add other things to your resume. Part time jobs, freelancing etc.

I would never put camming on my CV, you don't know how judgemental the hirer might be and wouldn't wanna risk losing a potential job opportunity because of it!
An easy cop-out is travelling, you can always say you took some time out of work to go find yourself abroad lol
UMM don't add camming into your resume. At the very least, you can claim that you were working as a independent contractor through uber or Instacart or something to that degree. As far as references, use a professor or an advisor at the school that you attend.

No, people are judgmental as fuck about sex work/nude modeling/etc. Frenchie Davis was eliminated from American Idol when it was discovered that she'd done topless photos. 
And so many other examples...
There's no way in Hell I'm telling the folks who hired me as the Easter bunny (A seasonal job that lasts for three weeks) that I shake my naked ass to "The Thong Song (remix)" on webcam.
It's bad enough they want employees to cover up their tattoos...even though that won't apply to me because no one will see mine with me inside of a bunny costume.
Just put "Customer service...sales...live chat agent" or something like that, if you need to put something to account for the amount of time you were camming.

Yeah I wouldnt put it lol. especially with you being young. Grab a side gig, Freelance doordash etc. You're not planning this as a long term career.
In my case I'm 40 w/no kids, and sex/porn have always been my biggest hobbies so its a diff story. I would have been doing this since the minute i turned 18 if it were around especially since i was in better shape

while I wouldnt put camming specifically on a CV I would add some kind of self employed work history there that covers the skills that are used like photo editing, video editing, general content creation, event planning and marketing etc. To leave out all of this imo is selling yourself short, there's a lot of skills that go along with doing cam work that are transferable into other industries.

Back during my first few years when I got lonely/isolated and wasn't always happy w my earnings, I did exactly this (what Marti describes) and had absolutely no problems getting second jobs.
Have you worked two jobs at once? It must have been very hard

Whatever your skill set is, or your career interests aside from camming, maybe adding freelance work is the way to go.
For one thing, you can honestly declare yourself a freelancer without having to “have a second job” per se, if you don’t have time for that (or would just prefer to use the time to continue camming). If you can squeeze in a few one-off freelance gigs here and there that are outside of cam modeling, use them as samples just in case they ask for details on the type of freelance work you’re doing.
Nobody’s going to ask you for a full 7 years of proof that you were constantly freelancing. And besides, some freelancers just don’t get steady work anyway. Say you were a freelancer the whole time, have a few vanilla examples at the ready if they ask, and you should be fine.

But it's pretty hard, right after freelance work, and doing a webcam. A person will burn out like coal.
