Forget the 100 guys tipping you $1. You want the 5 guys tipping you $1000.
My whales have given me $28,000+ combined. They pay my rent, my car, my life.

What Makes a Whale
A whale isn't just a big tipper. A whale is:
- Tips $500+ monthly consistently
- Shows up to most of your streams
- Takes regular privates
- Respects boundaries
- Creates positive room energy
Where Whales Come From
Whales don't appear day one. They evolve:
- Week 1-2: Random viewer, maybe tips 20 tokens
- Week 3-4: Becomes regular, tips 100-200 per show
- Month 2: First big tip (500+), testing waters
- Month 3: Regular big tips, private shows
- Month 4+: Full whale status
The key: Recognizing potential whales early and cultivating them.

Same money. 95% less work.
