Good points...
When people like SleazyDream come into these threads and laugh at people for making only 10K a month and being happy about it, I find it funny and sad for SD...
The average American household makes under 4K a month. So anything more than that is "extra".
People who have a hand in content producing or paysites do not count since they are business owners... I think the real meaning behind the big boys asking, "If you aren't making 4K a day, why be in this industry," isn't that you need to make 4K a day to work here, it is that they can't understand why someone wouldn't open paysites or content companies and be their own bosses.
Most people come here from the work force. They are used to taking orders and not giving them. Having zero responsibility. Having no overhead. Their employer never asked for money before putting them on the work schedule like you do here (paid spots, hosting, gallery design, etc)...
Stop talking to much shit about the 95% who don't want to put up the extra effort or who don't want added responsibilities and yet still manage to contribute 50% of the gross revenue.
