The big solo stars?

Most of the Lightspeed girls were "killed" in car accidents and various other forms of industrial accidents such as pianos falling out of windows as well as nuclear contamination.

Steve would confirm, if he was not sitting in the Hospice center with Jordan Capri

Some of the Lightspeed Girls did well enough. The most popular, Tawnee, put her and her husband through college and bought a house. They worked two or three days a month, and lived well. However, they were contract girls, and once they stopped shooting... They were cut out of the profits.

I still talk to one of them every so often. For her it was just a job she did, easy money for easy work.

That's how I've always looked at it...getting paid for something you do for free anyway (sex).

I think that counts as successful.

Raven Riley was huge and had a share of the site or so I thought. It is that some of them had to have a few million. But it was probably more like lottery winnings.

You have to remember these girls were just models. They knew they had websites, even looked at them, but it just didn't interest them at all. They could have cared less about it. In the mean time, they were pretty well paid - Considering their earning potential was limited to working as a cashier.

I think you are forgetting something: Most of them are/were strippers. And in that case they made a hell of a lot more money at that job than they did getting paid to shoot their scenes.

But it's the synergy of it that makes all the difference in the world.

Back in the mid to late 1990's I was shooting as male talent over on the East Coast. The company was an old school video company and didn't even put their stuff online. Shot with two movie cameras...so there was a "soft" and "hard" version.

The soft version would play on the old Playboy Channel on cable t.v.

The pay for shooting wasn't much. BUT...the payoff came because I had a male strip show that I ran at the time in South Carolina. And I made a lot of money as a male stripper because I was a "porn star" and was on Playboy T.V.

That's what most of the girls in the business, that have a clue, do as well. Plus they can branch that out into escorting right out of the strip club.

So no, I wouldn't say that the girls had no earning potential. They have more earning potential than either of us.
