It depends what your overall goals are. If you're just looking to make a few bucks, get on the web, and not have much hassle in life, just shoot for another company. They'll pay you a fair wage for your time, you'll shoot a few times, and you won't have to worry about the crap that comes with running a paysite. On the other hand, you also won't make a whole lot of money.
Running your own site can make you a lot of money if you work hard and stay active with the site. It includes consistent updates, chats, and communication with members to keep them happy. You will deal with a lot of crap such as finding affiliates, finding traffic, and dealing with other administrative costs and duties.
My suggestion would be to figure out exactly what you want out of this. Some quick and easy cash, or a lot of work to potentially make a lot of money. Both have their pros and cons. I'd contact the Bruce_Miller guy from this thread who has said he'd offer a %. They will give you a good idea of what can be done and how much work is involved. They've been around the game for a long time and probably have more experience than 99% of this board in that field.
