By now, I think we all know how much money can be made on OnlyFans and it's probably the number one reason why it's become so popular.
YouTuber Tana Mongeau appears to be no different from other success stories as she's shown off the eye-watering amount she has earned from the platform.
For those pretending they've never heard of it, OnlyFans sees people pay creators for content, usually pornographic, for a monthly fee.

This can range from X-rated images or videos, fetish content, and various fan requests that are charged as extra.
26-year-old Mongeau, who made her name as a YouTuber as well as on the Cancelled podcast with Brooke Schofield, has since explained why she signed herself up.
"If I’m drunk and throwing a party and wearing a see-through shirt, I might as well monetise that," the content creator, from Nevada, told The Cut.
"So many men on the internet sexualised me for so long against my own will, and I got to a point where I finally was like, 'Damn, I might as well make a million dollars off of it'."
And she certainly was not lying when it comes to her OnlyFans earnings.
Taking to Instagram back in 2020, Mongeau shared a photo of a glass trophy that read: "Congratulations top earner," with a whopping '$3,000,000' below it.
In a 2023 interview with Forbes, Mongeau said: "People are going to underestimate you as a woman in pretty much everything, and you're gonna have to claw your way up a little harder than most men are.
"But I wanted it and I did it, and I don't give a [redacted] if it's hard.
"Had I been cookie cutter, I would've never amassed any success.
"And had I switched up to a perfectly brand safe business woman … I don't think I would've made it to the point that I'm at."
However, Mongeau has been involved in a fair few controversies over the years.
Most notably in 2018 when she organised 'TanaCon', a convention in response to her alleged feud with VidCon, where she was accused of mistreating creators.
TanaCon was an event in California that promised fans a chance to meet their favourite influencers, but ended in chaos.
Thousands of attendees were reportedly left outside in the heat for hours without proper accommodations, so the event was cancelled on its first day.
In 2020, Mongeau was also was criticised for attending parties during the Covid-19 pandemic, despite the guidelines.
She did apologise for her 'careless and irresponsible' decision.
Despite the controversies, Mongeau continues to have a massive following across all of the major social platforms.
