Default Favorite and least favorite parts of this business?

I'm curious to know... what's your favorite part of this business?

For me there are a lot of things. The people I have met over the years has been great. I think that ranks way up there. I think however, the thing I like best is how you can take a domain, make it into something, and watch it grow. That's the most satisfying for me.

If you have a least favorite thing and want to name it... go ahead.

I like access to a ton of free porn so I cut way back on my hooker money.

I like the sense of community here. It's almost disarming how people can be so helpful to you when you know you need help.

The thing that I hate is that there are more and more scammers. It's dizzying how you need to be on top of your game, because if you let your guard down, there are people who will steal, lie and even ruin your name for profit. But then, again, that's business.

Leveraging your time into creating an army of websites that become like your employees.... but employees who work for you 24/7 nonstop (barring any downtime). You don't have to pay them, they pay you, and they are never sick, never late to work, no back talk, no family crisis's, nothing.

Put in the work and do it up right and all that spells freedom.

And on that note I'm away for a bike ride. Website income allows you such indulgences, riding your bike on a beautiful sunny weekday afternoon while the rest of the world slaves away at their "jobs".

What's not to love? here's a few things...

- The community.
- Beautiful women take their clothes off for you (and let you take their pictures)
- Money is great
- Computers & Technology
- The casual air of trade shows and business in general.
- Ability to work from home, or an office, or on the road.


I was almost going to say "easy money" but of couse this part of the business is long gone. It's now more work than it ever was before, but hard work is good for you.

Cheers to everyone in the porn industry! (And see you at Qwebec!)

Thumbs up

I like the aspect that you are pretty much limited only by your imagination, and for one who loves building and helping others build projects - the dynamic possibilities are endless - and marketing imagination is the ultimate business challenge

Favorite - the people at their best

It can go from a man helping another man make a step up to rabid dogs tearing a weakling apart in a manner of seconds.

Great question Chris I think my favorite thing about my job has be just being able to help people so often. I just help anyone out anyway that I can and for me that's really satisfying.

My least favorite thing has to be the scammers and spammers.

I love my friends, the shows, the money I make and the potential to make more, and of course, the product.

I hate the bullshit, the fact that style still rules over substance in many circles, the stigma associated with the biz, and the liars.

on the one hand .. I love the people, I've met some great people in this business.. made some great friends ...

but on the other hand .. I can't stand some of the people in this business. it seems to bread all the scumbags douche asswipes whos only thought is who can i screw today ...

but on the other hand .. the lifestyle, I hang with beautiful women, have amazing sex, get to experience things most men only dream about ...

but ont he other hand, the lifestyle has given me a hard relationship life. My ife is all about sex drugs and porn. I can't seem to seperate it. Can't meet a normal girl who can accept me for me and not for what i do.


Jesus Chris .. thanks for opening this bag of worms !

:P

I forgot least favorite.

Hmm. I'll say it's the people, sites and companies who go out of business and disappear from the web and they don't tell the people they do business with, affiliates etc. You have their links up and find out a month late that they're gone, the links are dead, and you now have ten thousand pages to edit.

Or they're gone and you lose all your rebills.
