In the mainstream world, you are 100% correct.
However, that is a shit load of money for the porn world.
To put things into perspective (info found on google)....
Larry Flynt's net worth way back in 2001 during the glory days, was $400 million.
Hugh Hefner used to be worth a lot (600 million) but these days it's under $100 million.
Both of these guys built their empires over a lifetime. Nathan built his in 3 years.
What I do know is, if I had that kind of cash, responsibility, connections and know-how, I sure as hell would not be wasting my time on GFY trying to defend my position to people I didn't even know. I'd expect that from one of his lower grade uploader employees, but not from a man who could make such a power move within 3 short years. With that kind of cash it would be ALL about my family and my business. But to each his own. Maybe he is just lonely and emotionally dysfunctional. Then it would at least make a little sense.
Spending the weekends posting on GFY trying to explain himself over and over and over again to dick heads like us, is exactly what someone with his ability, connections and know-how should be doing. Yea, makes perfect sense. Not sure how I didn't see that before. Sorry Nathan, I believe you now.
