My problem is I don't have thousands and thousands of dollars on hand to open up a paysite or to invest in advertising and making new sites..........People with lots of money to invest are ALwAYS going to make their money fast. Whereas I had to start with about 40 bucks!
Oddly. tho that was decades before net days, I remember first thinking - and it hit me like a brick, - the best thing I could do is "do my own thing" and at that time all I had was $160! I worked for another company at that time (the only company I've ever worked for) and in the background "worked" that original $160 in a small part time biz till it was enough to live on, - then went on my own and never looked back.

I've never actually borrowed money for a biz, but probably saved a lot of hassle and cost by doing this and, in a way, it's the "acid test" if a biz is sustainable/viable if it can generate it's own revenue.

The opportinity on the net is now amazing - ie the concept that you can work from home or even travel or locate yourself anywhere in the world and still earn :-) It took me.. less than a year to realize there was no point in living at home and paying taxes that would buy a few homes - so moved to locations more "friendly" to doing biz.

Tho we still.. often thru habit, spend loads of hours on net stuff - often it is very simple things, ie a "sub niche" of something, that can earn without the need for lots of time. The other part is innovation.. - there are elements, some may already exist, - but by combining "rehashing" them - you have a new concept/presentation. Even if nine out of ten of these fail - the one that does succeed earns revenue more than enough to cover any failures.

Bottom line... it's all about "heads thru the door" - traffic. You could make one HTML page with linkage - throw 100K traffic at that and it will earn. Throw 1mill traffic and it will earn more. The content on the page is obviously meaningful, but the simple basic prinicple still applies. This does not need five dedicated servers, paysites or loadsa money



PS.. There is no money in porn
