She’s not mine. She’s His little girl, and she needs me to fight for her by keeping my eyes where they should be."

                              lol what i told her:


                              babe, its all about the $. loyalty and "friendship" are fictions in the vast majority of cases.
                              90% of the people in this biz will stab you right in the back AS they are buttfucking you without lube. as long as youre aware of that little fact you'll be fine.

                                      and people wonder why im not lining up for every new affi program or sponsor. i try to keep my business as much in my control as possible. safer.
                                      less $ prolly, but way safer.
                                      and no one to blame but ME when shit goes awry.

                                                              not pointing fingers at anyone but since its related to the subject.... Most people who tell everyone not to trust anyone, are probably not trustworthy themselves..
                                                              When you accept something as a norm, some day you start finding yourself applying it..

                                                                                      Sometimes trust will fuck you over. Other times it will be the difference between $X weekly and $10X weekly. Trust is a risk, but so is business.

A partner I've been working with for over a year has made me 10's of thousands of $$$ I wouldn't have had if I didn't trust him with some valuable info. That's just one of many people I work with on a regular basis, all of whom I trusted from the start.

I'm learning to "let go" a little bit and it really seems to be helping. You always need to have your ass covered, but it's ok to put a little faith in others once in a while.

We built some websites, split the profit. We had no contracts, I still have never met him, and I've only spoke on the phone with him once. As a junior in high school I was making $4-5k a month working 1-2 hours a day, never would have been able to do that without him.

                                                                                                          Now I admit that yes, I was pretty lucky and maybe an exception to the rule, but just giving an example of what trust can do.

                                                                                                              Sometimes trust will fuck you over. Other times it will be the difference between $X weekly and $10X weekly. Trust is a risk, but so is business.

You just have to do your research on people before you make deals with them... But that's the great thing about these boards, they have a history and it's very easy to do a search on someone's name, to see what others think of them.. Adult is a very small community and once a scammers name is out there it's easy to find..

                                                                                                                                  Just don't do any big deals with people you can't find references on..
                                                                                                                                  In November, you can vote for America's next president or its first dictator.

                                                                                                                                          And I've been around a bit. The evils of our biz don't usually last very long. I've found that if you cheat people the word quickly spreads. I've noticed when a company announces the tiniest change to one of their progarms, it's usually shouted here. Same goes for copyright infringement, and non-paying sites/photographers.

                                                                                                                                          No, i don't think that's an accurate saying. It sounds "cheeky" and cute, but i think it's a bit biased. Maybe you are just hanging out with the wrong people?

And a bit on the gullible side. But I've learned the hard way - you've got to do business but stay cynical. Everyone in this business - perhaps in any business - are out for themselves, bottomline. I've been fucked like everyone has but hahahaha - everytime it's happened I ended up better off.

We built some websites, split the profit. We had no contracts, I still have never met him, and I've only spoke on the phone with him once. As a junior in high school I was making $4-5k a month working 1-2 hours a day, never would have been able to do that without him.
