A creator who says she was fired from every fast food job she had due to her “bad temper” has revealed she was earning five figures a month on OnlyFans by 18 and bought her own home just two years later.
Reina Tejeiro, 22, from Texas, US, had already built a following of around 400,000 on TikTok before she became an adult content creator.
But she struggled to stick to traditional work, holding roles at places including Buffalo Wild Wings and Taco Bell.
“I had jobs like at Buffalo Wild Wings or Taco Bell, but I never lasted because I had a bad temper,” she told NudeNewz.
“I hated working for someone and feeling like someone’s puppet.
“But I was always a hard worker regardless of that.”
When she turned 18 and followers began asking for more content, she decided to launch an OnlyFans page.
“I already had a huge social media presence and people were asking for it, so I thought I might as well do it,” she said.
“Off the bat, at 18, I started earning five figures a month.
“People joke that I didn’t even give life a try because I got into OnlyFans so quickly.”
By the age of 20, Reina had saved enough to buy her own home.
“The realtor who worked with me and everyone involved was shocked how young I was buying a house,” she said.
“I’m sure they had their opinions but I didn’t care.”
Her rapid rise has also brought some unexpected attention.
Reina claims one fan was able to identify her home by matching property listings in her area with content she had posted online.
“They looked at homes being sold in my city and matched it with the images of the rooms I posted myself in,” she said.
“He would occasionally send me stuffed animals and gifts.
“I honestly didn’t mind, I thought it was funny and I enjoyed the gifts.”
She says being recognised in public can feel strange, but she takes it in her stride.
“It is a bit weird considering I do OnlyFans, but I also don’t care because of how much it has helped me live my dream life,” she said.
Reina describes her brand as “cute, funny, real, honest”, and says her personality is what keeps fans coming back.
“I want them to feel one of a kind,” she said. “I want them to be happy with their purchase and come back.”
When it comes to content ideas, she admits she has recently taken inspiration from an unexpected place.
“Surprisingly, recently I find myself copying AI women, as sad and unfortunate as that is,” she said.
And like many creators, she receives unusual requests from subscribers.
“I have a fan that asks for photos of my armpits and videos of me rubbing them,” she said.
Despite the nature of her work, Reina says her family have been supportive.
“Someone sent my mum videos of me in lewd acts,” she said.
“Little do they know, she actually complimented me and said I looked good, she could not care less.
“My dad on the other hand is just happy I’m happy with my life.
“With how hard everything is right now, like finding a job or how high the prices are, he’s happy I don’t struggle.”
Now living comfortably with six pets, Reina says her focus is not on luxury but long-term security.
“My goal isn’t to live a luxurious life,” she said.
“My goal is to have lots of pets, own a business to have generational wealth.
“My purpose in this life is to give back to my family and I will forever stand on that.
“All the purses, expensive cars, expensive makeup, I could not care less about any of it.”
Her advice to others thinking of starting out is to stay authentic and stick to their own boundaries.
“Only do what you’re comfortable with in this field,” she said.
“People will try to tell you to do this or that, follow your path and keep going and you will reach your goals.
“High effort, talking videos will always outdo the low effort videos.
“People want to know the real you.”
