do you depend on porn business or have a side business too?

i am willing to know how many of you run a side business and not fully depend on porn?

It's unwise to put all your eggs in one basket.

Why porn? There is 1001 opportunity in the internet to make money. I have no offline job for more than 15 years and I'm ok with that

Adult was my primary income for 6 years - but we saw the writing on the wall and diversified before we reached a downhill financial slope.

It was a very good learning experience, though. If/when I go into a full-time mainstream venture, there's several things I'd do quite different.

Other than a couple of small personal projects and the occasional 'consulting' job helping a few friends, I am more or less out of porn now.

I haven't depended upon any business for a good few years now but I need something to get my teeth into business wise so I am a franchisee, with Shell, Costa Coffee and Domino's Pizza.

Last 2 or almost three years, I am also doing "real "job. Didn't plan at first but somehow it happened. Huge project that is taking most of my time and nerves. And that reminded me why real job sucks, actually. Phone calls , waking up early, handling people, paying stuff you don't need online,travelling,etc.

I have a couple of side projects that make money, but my main income is my phone sex biz and creating mp3's. I want my business to become residual income based now. pso is a great income, but telling guys to suck dick for me all day long becomes repetitive ;)

I was full time porn from 1988 to 2008. Now live off the pensions and investments.

Real porn, not dating or webmastering.

That's very impressive!!!

I take it you are not in the US. May I ask a few questions I have always wondered about.

When you receive your petro deliveries what is the price based on? That days price? Price when ordered? Can you pre-buy for X amount of time at a fixed price?

Also the convenient items you are selling, do you have to buy them from Shell, or prearranged suppliers?

And some Dominos food stores! Congratulations again!!!

Ahh...so that's where all those sex-in-a-dental-chair scenes come from.

Always wondered about that.

i used to work in non-adult (BI (business intelligence) content marketing + numerous local startups as product- and project management, copywriting, ux consulting.. Fantastic world out there!), adult was always a funny topic to talk about at interviews, even the most pokerfaced suits turned into curious little kids when adult was mentioned, awkwardly joking around like "can you give me a free account? hahaha" "well.. only if you hire me"

i had much, much more strange reactions when i mentioned i've been learning mandarin chinese for years.
