Here's my reality check....

You are a photographer who is good enough to make a pay site out of your work but you were not a good enough photographer to quit your day job and start your own photography biz.

I am not trying to tell you that you can't do this but switching from a 9-5 mentality to an entrepreneur mentality is really hard. Doesn't matter if its in starting an adult site, opening a bar, or building a cleaning service.

I would recommend you keeping a regular job if that's what you are used to and put all your extra time into your new business. Speaking from experience, I work about 60-70 hours per week minimum in my business and when I see someone say they are going to go at a new venture "full steam" by putting in 40 hours, I worry for them.
