Van Life Enthusiast Shares Financial Journey, Debunks Misconceptions In a recent social media post, popular van life content creator "Vanlifevallis" addressed a common question from her followers: "How do you afford it?" The influencer, known for her adventurous lifestyle, candidly shared her financial background, clarifying that her income is not derived from OnlyFans or a family trust fund. "I've been accused of having an OnlyFans, which made me chuckle," she stated in the video. "That is not how I afford van life." She revealed that she worked diligently since her teenage years, including three years as a teacher, earning approximately 24,000 pounds annually in her first year. A key to her financial stability, she explained, was consistently saving 50% of her income. Initially, her goal was to purchase a house, a dream that became "disillusioned" after realizing the financial offers were insufficient. This shift in perspective led her to embrace van life, a non-traditional living style she has admired since childhood, including tiny homes and houseboats. "I'm literally spending my whole life saving up, not doing what I want to do, because I care about what might happen," she reflected on her previous mindset. She concluded by emphasizing that her current lifestyle is a direct result of "hustle" and hard work, not an "easy answer" like cryptocurrency.
