Can you really make good money selling pics of your feet?

My dd has been going on and on for weeks about selling pics of her feet on some sort of app. She had seen it on Tik Tok. Of course, I have said absolutely no way, she’s only 14.
Anyhow, today, on Radio 2 there’s a guy taking about how he has ditched his shoes and goes everywhere barefoot. He mentioned that on the side he also sells pics of his feet on an app where others sell photos of their feet. He said he makes £1000 per month doing this.
I must admit that my ears pricked up a little when he said that and now I’m staring at my gnarly old trotters and seeing them in a whole new light - ££££!
Has anyone heard of this, can you really make good (safe??) money this way??
Light-hearted of course but in the light of the economic climate and fuel bills financially crushing us I may seriously need to sign up for this app (I am slight serious here!).

Ha, ha I was just listening to this too....following....😉

countrygirl99 · 23/08/2022 14:09

Following with interest😁

You have to have very nice, pretty feet. I know someone who’s an influencer who has such nice feet and always has a fresh set of shellac. She makes 10K a month on only fans but obviously she already had a huge following.

Regular people with just ok feet probably won’t make more than £50 a month (and that’s once you’re established!)

🤢 ew I hate feet. I'd pay people not to send me pics of feet 😄

Reesewithafork · 23/08/2022 14:15

@876starlight I’m not sure that’s true! I have a friend who sells pictures of her feet that have bunions and hard skin… there are some very specific kinks out there! She makes 4K a month on average

JustlookingNotbuying · 23/08/2022 14:20

Reesewithafork Bloody hell!
My second toe has always been longer than my big toe, I have hated my feet all my life, ever since my school mates would take the piss. Perhaps this is my moment to shine!

A tik tok person also signed up to make a bit of cash and paid £4.95 subscription

It's not pictures of feet it's every single intimate part of your body inc your feet

Was a funny post .. she was appalled 🤣

JustlookingNotbuying · 23/08/2022 14:26

I’ve just had a quick look on Etsy. Lots of feet pics but they are all young, beautiful photos.
No 49 year old trotter pics, shame!

I'd have thought not really unless you already were known/had a following.. I think most of the ppl selling foot pix do it in conjunction with other porn and rarely are anonymous! Plus, it's a lot of emotional effort/work, you don't just upload a pic and you get $$$, you will have to constantly be promoing yourself and flirting and entertaining fetishist men.

It's pretty concerning your underage daughter is being groomed on an app for children to sell images to adult men for a sexual nature. If she is all excited by the idea I think you need to really have a serious chat about online sexwork/prostitution/onlyfans and how it can ruin lives.

Is that it? The key to riches is to convince people to send you £4.95 so you can tell them to ask other people for £4.95, ie a pyramid scheme.

Keyansier · 23/08/2022 14:29

I know a guy who does this and is very rich from it but it started out as just selling feet pics and has now developed into (no sex) escorting and more revealing pics and videos

CookPassBabtridge · 23/08/2022 14:30

Bet it's just men who buy these pictures isn't it? God they are so fucked up 😂

SizzlerFizzler · 23/08/2022 14:31

People used to sell their dirty old slippers on Ebay. Really grubby, well-used ones. Not sure if that's still a thing.

Gateway feet?

OP, might be a lesson in 'if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is'.

If it was that easy to sell anonymous pictures of only your feet for decent money without having then go further and otherwise entertain pervy men, then we'd all be doing it.

PumpkinGhoul · 23/08/2022 14:37

@JustlookingNotbuying my second toe is longer than my big toe as well my DH jokes and says I have monkey feet because I can pick things off the floor with my toes 🤣🤣 It's only slightly longer but still
I don't think people would want to look at my chubby feet although that's easy money if someone out there wants to pay to look at feet 🤢

Ineedtoletgo83 · 23/08/2022 14:41

Gosh I’ve got really lovely feet (lots of people tell me this) could I make money from them?

LaurieFairyCake · 23/08/2022 14:45

My Dh has disgusting feet, really really repulsive

I'd love to make money selling pics of them as he sits picking bits of dry skin off them every evening - if I videoed it we could make a fortune I'm guessing ? Grin

Fuck me, I would be making the money to pay for a divorce! There's a genuine LTB right there.

Newusernameaug · 23/08/2022 15:01

I have really nice feet - also weirdly get complimented on them, especially as I have a tattoo that works well with the shape of my foot…… now wondering if that’ll help pay my bills this winter! 😂

Air hostesses sell their tights and court shoes on eBay

I used to work with a girl whose best mate sold used knickers, she made a fortune

Georgeskitchen · 23/08/2022 15:37

Some people have sexual fetishism about feet. Men buy women's used knickers on the net. Yuk

carefullycourageous · 23/08/2022 15:42

There is now going to be a big unflux of feet pics into the market and you will be undercutting each other, rates will go down, you'll have to diversify into ear pictures or something.
