The owner of OnlyFans, a site known for its adult content that is credited with revolutionising the online porn industry, has died at the age of 43.
Leonid Radvinsky, who was born in Ukraine and grew up in Chicago, had purchased the company in 2018 from its two UK-based founders.
The site’s popularity surged during the Covid-19 pandemic, landing him on Forbes’ annual list of billionaires just three years later.
He “passed away peacefully after a long battle with cancer,” OnlyFans confirmed in a statement, which asked for privacy for his family.
Imagine reaching the pinnacle of wealth and achievement only to have this happen.
And all your money won’t another minute buy. Dust in the wind.
Because all these billionaires would rather hoard money than pay taxes for cancer research, or get Trump elected, who killed all cancer research in 2025.
We should have service that sends cards to people on their deathbeds: “No cure, but you saved $11,000 in taxes”.
I have a feeling that many of them are not smarter than regular engineering department student
Certainly better than dying before that - poor and sad.
I feel personally attacked.
Article doesn’t say when he was diagnosed or what sort of cancer but unless he’d been fighting it since before Covid he probably got to enjoy his success for at least a short bit of time
