What we have now is a basic case of supply and demand. 4 years ago there wasn't as much saturation as there is now, so yeah people were making money. Now, there's more mailers and less inbox deliveries, fewer surfers joining and so on and so on.

Take a word from the wise, if people are telling you and ACTING like they are making serious bank from mailing, chances are they are full of shit. 97% of them are posers. Always remember, all that glitters isn't gold.

And it's only going to get harder. Surfers are getting "smarter", filters are getting tougher and not to mention, the hand of the law is coming down hard. Think you can set up offshore and have it made? Wrong. It doesn't work like that anymore.

The clock is ticking, within a few years that show will be over. And even if you manage to make anything before you can't do it anymore, there's no guarantee the past won't come back to haunt you.

You're my type of chick
I once almost wrote an entire essay directed at over saturation and the glorification of the mailing world by the media and trolls. People are stupid, and like to talk about shit they know nothing about.

I even included: "*Note: This is not directed at anyone in particular."
