    Why do so many people insist on making money online?

    95% of the people working online (adult) cannot even pay their rent with the money they make.

    They come to gfy to beg for shitty jobs, money, try to sell shitty domains etc...anything for a dollar.

    Why the hell wont they find a normal mainstream job? If you cant make enough to pay your rent after 3 months online you never will. No, instead they spend all their time on a piece of shit 5k tgp and ask on gfy why they get no sign ups.

    Give it up already losers.

    And the lack of creativity is great amongst the latest arrival of losers.

    They think adult business = tgp

    I dont run a tgp and i still make money *wooohooohoo twilight zone tune*

    Probably the worst thing to start with is a tgp.

        Yes.

        If one cant make a few 100 bucks a month, if he has so little clue about whats going on then he never will be smart enough to make real money.

              I agree 110%... to many fucking loosers on this board with no net worth. Very few, I'd say... maybe 5% make decent $$. The rest are fucking sad and sheep... bahhhh

                  Why do people insist? Why not? If they can scrape cash together they will. I don't see anything wrong with it personally. I didn't expect to see no beggers when I came into adult. The world is the same EVERYWHERE.

                    I would want to go back either. I love being home with my children all day. I don't trust anyone to watch my kids and I love being here so that my kids know I'm just a door knock away.

                      I know that was a hit on me. I sell the domains because I think its fun and its a nice little extra money. I make enough in this biz to support myself without a regular job, but I do infact have one as well. But I agree with you, if you cant make your rent in 3 months online, hell even 2 months, you dont really belong in this biz.

                        pish, I know a few people on gfy who could pay their rent with their online poker winnings, much less the money they make from business.

                        I think a lot of people do online adult business as a hobby or side/part-time project, and their income reflects that. Those of us who are full-time aren't having any problems paying the rent.

                          maybe everyone didn't have the chance to start way back in "the day" when you did... you know the good ole days when you could just stick a picture of a naked chick up on a webpage and just watch the $100s roll in..

                          Just because you have been lucky enough to make some money (if you have, I have no clue who you are and don't care.. after all I'm just a newb) doesn't give you the right to judge other webmasters that are trying to break into the biz.

                          I'm a newb which equals a loser to you as it seems... But least I'm smart enough not to lump all people with big egos in the same group.

                            I agree traffictrader...

                            I do not make a lot at all in adult, but nor do I care, all I've ever asked adult was to pay for beer and cigarettes, other ventures pay for car/rent payments, other ventures etc. etc. etc.

                            kinda like diversifying a portfolio for investments, day trading is the next new one .

                            some do this some focus on one thing, both should be respected.....

                            and GFY? shit i usually just read and read, hardly post, but unlike other nubes, i never claim to know anything here :-)...newbies should have to read for 6 months before they post anything, i know i did!

                                Theres nothing wrong being new and trying to make money.
                                But alot of people fail and theres what im aiming at. Unlike other jobs where you just stop and find something else these people wont...instead they sell their soul on gfy for 10 bucks.
                                I really dont get that.
                                To me thats nothing different than the whore on your street corner.

                                    What im making (im no big player) has nothing to do with luck, its knowing what im busy with.

                                    I think you missed my point. Im not attacking newbs....im attacking newbs who for some reason dont give up even when its clear they cant make a penny in this biz.

                                      I guess it must be like struggling actors and actresses. They are willing to stay on and struggle hoping for there big break and figure this biz out.

                                        that's cool, I just thought you were attacking us newbs in general... I also kinda agree with what your saying when it comes to some of the posts, of people basicly wanting you to tell them how to do everything.

                                        I'm really not making any real money.. but honestly I didn't really start pushing anything intill last month or two.. I'm just now starting to get some decent traffic across my sites.. I also took the longer route and didn't really jump right in, as I took quite a bit of time and researched what I wanted to do. Now I'm just trying to put it all together.

                                        But I did earn enough to pay my server bills last month

                                                I do not make a lot at all in adult, but nor do I care, all I've ever asked adult was to pay for beer and cigarettes, other ventures pay for car/rent payments, other ventures etc. etc. etc.

                                                kinda like diversifying a portfolio for investments, day trading is the next new one .

                                                some do this some focus on one thing, both should be respected.....

                                                and GFY? shit i usually just read and read, hardly post, but unlike other nubes, i never claim to know anything here :-)...newbies should have to read for 6 months before they post anything, i know i did!

                                                I was in adult for three years before I emerged from my cave to meet other webmasters and post on boards.

                                                I agree. Newbies should not speak until they can:

                                                1. take the heat
                                                2. Gain experience
                                                3. Not lie about what they make per month and not ask what everyone else is making.

                                                I wouldn't want to go back to mainstream for many reasons, not the least of which is the fact that I can work in my jammies and see my honey all day long.

                                                    I only make a few 100 bucks a month....

                                                    But then again, I'm a college student that does it only for fun and some pocket cash, I don't plan on working with porn in the future as a living....

                                                    (Acctually I could work on porn as a living but I couldn't get used to working 8 hours a day alone in front of this computer, I would go crazy!!)
                                                    I'm just a newbie.

                                                          They think adult business = tgp

                                                          I dont run a tgp and i still make money *wooohooohoo twilight zone tune*

                                                          Probably the worst thing to start with is a tgp.

                                                                    I rather see a few big tgp's than 1000 small ones giving out 100x more content than you or to the hun while they make 50 bucks a month from it.

                                                                      main adult industry thing is psychology. Got it ?

                                                                        Why the hell wont they find a normal mainstream job? If you cant make enough to pay your rent after 3 months online you never will. No, instead they spend all their time on a piece of shit 5k tgp and ask on gfy why they get no sign ups.

                                                                        Give it up already losers.

                                                                                    The problem with this is that after 6 months struggling, they refuse to work on ANYTHING that isn't high risk - high reward (a.k.a. Big Break). It's a vicious circle - you're incompetent, you earn nothing, you shoot for the stars? Get the f*ck outta here

                                                                                      Nobodies going to start making money as soon as they start on this biz.

                                                                                      It might take 3 6 or even 12 months untill a newbie gets the hang of it and starts making money.

                                                                                      When i first started i didnt make a single cent for over 6 months, than all of a sudden i got my first check for $2k and the second check for $30k and the rest is history.

                                                                                      If you give up you will never make it.
