Monetizing 140k Instagram account

I’m having a big headache trying to decide what would be the way to monetize my IG account with 140k followers, where 95% are males.

Option 1:
to add affiliate link to dating app maybe ( but I have no idea how to do it safetly without losing my account) . If I use something like AllLinks would it be safe? O I can add affiliate link?

Option 2:
Use POD service and start selling something like Tshirts with sexy girls.

I would really appreciate if someone could help me to choose the best option and provide quick guidance how to do it. I went through multiple threads today but I could not find straigh and clear answer, besides CPA thing is not something I fully understand. I also own Youtube channel where I repost content from IG, but due to copyrights I’m not able to monetize it. Would it be possible to add affiliate link to my content on youtube?

Good idea, I actually was trying to find someone who I could sign up through my referral. Few girls signed up but They do not make any content.

Sell shoutouts to relevant pages.

Re-direct traffic from Ig to a site or eg. to a Twitter page, which you can then monetize without fearing about your Ig page getting banned.

Most pages start receiving shoutout requests at 50K
Nothing so far?
What's the engagement rate over stories?

I wouldn't do option 1 i.e. adding a link. You might get away with it, but why take the risk when shoutouts are easier and in my opinion safer. So, selling shoutouts is the way to go I'd suggest. PanosSmrs's suggestion about onlyfans is actually a good idea...and you can be the middleman.

For organic I assume you mean instead of buying ads on facebook - agree with above. Links are risky especially on domains you dont own. Who knows the trust score and if someone ran shady stuff on it and got the link flagged. OF is good if you can find the girls that need it. but also depends on who your audience is on IG

The amount of money people are spending for OnlyFans ads is enormous, take advantage of that.
