I was like what the fuck do they have to gain from this?. Then spin3r started across all my sites and then I started to get Corporate bots from well known companies in my niche. Then it hit me, my niche/sites are not alone in this and (the hint) why are they data-mining?

I got a smile on my face and never looked back from there..

You just peaked my curiosity... Any way to contact you and possibly chat?

This industry will never stop being profitable as long as you know what you are doing and are offering something that people really want to see. Sexually stimulating content will always sell no matter what. Of course, there will be changes to come to the industry as technology advances more and more but you have to roll with the changes and continue to be the best (or one of the best) at what you are offering and as long as you are able do that successfully, you should be fine. Regarding an exit strategy for myself, I do not have an exit strategy because I will not be exiting out of the industry.

If this business isn't profitable for you, nothing YOU do is going to be profitable for you. Selling porn is like selling crack!

Well said, and I feel the same way.

This is where I call bullshit. Unless you are going to start a medical company that makes millions a year, why would you be going to med school to ultimately make far less than your stated income is now?

Adult = $2000 - $3000 and is passive so mainstream must be what? $6000 - $12000?

Why go to med school to make the same as you do now? Makes no sense. Why wouldn't you apply yourself and make that income into $40K a month and not have med school loans/tuition?

Somewhere in here I smell bullshit!

I'm not going to med school for the money, I'm going to med school because the field genuinely interests me. And aside from the field being quite interesting, it also involves something that working online tends to lack: social interaction. Which is rather important if, like me, you're not exactly great at meeting new people.

I just came back from the dorm room of the 21 year old girl I spent the night with, and am about to start reading up on the pathogenicity of specific mutations in a few mismatch repair genes that are associated with Lynch syndrome.

To me, this is heaven.

Since cars, houses and clothes don't interest me, the only thing I've ever liked about doing business online is the game behind it. I love finding and exploring new business opportunities, just like I loved finding new solutions to problems when I worked as a programmer and loved finding new argumentations for theories when I studied philosophy.

But since I was always pretty good at the game behind online business, after a while it got a bit boring. Meanwhile, the lack of social interaction meant that I started living like a recluse. No amount of money is worth wasting your life on - you can't spend your money when you're dead, and you can't buy youth.

I'm in a position to study something that completely fascinates me while being able to interact with lots of interesting people. Why would I choose a bit of money over that?

If your business plan is about failing, you will fail.

Never say die

Now that all makes sense, for you as an individual

Far better than your first post where you sounded just a wee bit like one of those recent crybaby quitters looking to sell their "empires".

Agent 488 · 11-15-2009, 10:31 AM

why do some people post "they are leaving adult" "have left adult" and on and on and continue to post on an adult board?

some weird psychology there.

Exactly. Well written reply. Well, Libertine, good luck in all of your life's endeavors...

I found my soul mate and have a family. So being some what of a recluse is better for me...

I've often wondered the same thing.

If you are gone, leaving, one foot out the door or can't make it in adult like AlienQ. Then why do you hang around like some jilted lover bashing everything, and everyone, when you are no longer a part of that institution??

I would think if your like is, and I quote, "So much better since leaving adult", then why are you not out enjoying your happiness??!?!?
