Another one besides me?

In the content game if you could sell to magazines it wasn't that hard. Loads of us made that money. Remember I had a large studio with 4 shooters, plus the office staff. Squealer thought I was broke because I didn't drive a fancy car or live in a big house.

A decent set = $3,000 Cost for the day, absolute tops $1,000 here.

Do the maths, it's 50 sets a year. Between 2000 to 2008 we shot 2,000. Plus some videos. The good thing was online sales, remember the days when non exclusive was saturated? Means we sold the scene a lot of times. Why do you think we never bothered chasing sponsors for custom work? There was a lot more money elsewhere for shooters who could tap into it.

We put the money away. I could see the graph for porn, knew I wasn't getting younger. Not buying big flash cars and huge houses made sense.

There is too much "if I can't do it, nobody can" attitude floating around.

There is tons of money out there to be gotten. Excuses will only hold one back.

I'm sure a big program like yours will have a few big guys. But let's face it the gold rush days are gone.
