New Zealand banker quits job, joins OnlyFans for financial stability, work-life balance

A New Zealand based woman, Layla Kelly who is also an OnlyFans performer, revealed that she left her bank job of seven years in order to gain financial stability and work-life balance.

According to a report by news.com.au which quoted her, though Kelly was earning $65,000, she was living pay cheque to pay cheque and wanted better 'work-life balance'.

She said, "I didn’t want to be chained to a corporate desk anymore. I wanted a better work-life balance, and I wanted more time with my family and freedom to increase my income."

Kelly joined OnlyFans after her maternity leave ended, following which she started to earn more than $1,85,000.

The vast sum of money allowed her to save a six-figure deposit for a house which she couldn't even think about when she was working at the bank.

According to the publication's report, she said, "I didn’t even think buying a house was possible on my banking wage. The cost of living in New Zealand is really high, so even when you’re being paid what is supposed to be a liveable wage, it doesn’t feel that way anymore."

Though Kelly had saved enough for her dream house deposit, a bank refused to entertain her home loan application due to the nature of work she was into.

According to the publication's report, "We had an incredible broker who went out to bat for us, and most banks were great, but there was one that wouldn’t assess our application because of the industry I’m in. I was really annoyed. They just saw it on paper and didn’t even care to have a conversation with us," Kelly said.

Terming it as an 'unfair experience', Kelly said that the process is already hard for first-time home buyers and also thanked the other banks which helped her in securing a home loan.
