More money than most adult webmasters make in a couple decades".... Way to set the bar high. Someone working at McDonald's probably makes more money than most adult webmasters make in a couple decades. Take a look at AaronM for example. The guy has been in this business for a couple decades and has pretty much zero to show for it. I would be extremely surprised if he's able pay rent on his trailer on time every month.

And lastly, to Bryan G... I don't care about people's incomes for the most part... But I have history with baddog and AaronM and I take great pleasure in seeing how big of failures they have continued to be.
We weren't talking about him being some genius businessman. You said he was broke, I said he was not. I don't think he's in the top tier of innovators, but he works hard, is honest to a fault, and is very well liked by people who matter. I'll take that over some guy who is successful because he fucked people over to get there.

Being broke and being baddog are two different things -- that was my only point.
