The 22-year-old adult star revealed that she has had to think like a ‘top CFO’ in order to manage her eye-watering 6 figure monthly tax bill, and that she pays way more than the average person
Mae says she has had to find systems to help manage the eye-watering ammount
NSFW content sharing sites have helped launch the careers of countless adult stars and revoultionised the porn industry in the process, allowing sex workers to make content for, and get paid by, their customers.
And with subscription based adult content sharing sites boasting over 300 million monthly users, top creators are raking in the cash, with some porn actors and actresses being paid upwards of $10 million a month via the site’s subscription model. One of these new porno-millionaires is the adult actress Skylar Mae, who reportedly earns as much as $15 million a year from fees paid by her loyal subscribers.
However, as any high earner will tell you, with this eye-watering salary naturally comes a whopping great tax bill. 22-year-old Mae is no different, with the adult actress admitted she has in the past paid as much as $400,000 a month in taxes alone.
Skylar Mae is one of the adult industry’s biggest stars
“I think everyone forgets we pay taxes just like everyone else. People also seem to forget that the more you earn, the more tax you pay” said Mae.
“So in the case of all these [adult] stars who are making millions, they would pay a really high amount of tax, and what they actually take home compared to the earnings they show online would be hugely different. In my case I’m paying more than 5x the average person’s yearly salary just in tax a month.”
