You're just barely out of high school. You're married. You've recently had a baby. And the job market's in the toilet. What would you do to keep your family afloat?
Would you play the lottery? Sell your things? Sell yourself?
Well, there's a couple that appears on Amateur Porn, an episode of Our America with Lisa Ling. Tyler, 24, and Berkley, 21, found themselves on the verge of losing everything and threw the dice on amateur Internet porn ... and made $300 in thirty minutes their first night.
Tyler, 24, and Berkley, 21, are an adorable couple. He's brunette, she's blonde. Both are young, fit and neatly put together. Who wouldn't want to watch them having sex?
Now? They're paying the bills and living comfortably on a cool $1,000 a week. And their lifestyle isn't even disturbing their daughter, who's sleeping in another part of the house while they perform.
But it's not all bubbles and sunshine, say the pair. In fact, the amateur porn world has a bit of a dark side.
“Because it is a job for us to have sex with one another, sex outside of work doesn't really happen,” Tyler said. “It's a total sex killer.”
“Having sex off and on for two, three hours, it gets kind of hard, especially the kind they want,” Berkley said. "It's, like, rough, so it wears on you a lot."
The couple hopes to eventually get out of the porn business through college and trade school before their daughter is old enough to go to school.
