I have a friend whose mother put herself through law school... by stripping. She started the day she turned 18 and had enough money to pay for her law degree by the time she was less than halfway through her education.

She became quite a successful and respected lawyer fighting for women who had been abused.

But 18 year old girls are just uneducated and get into the business because they don't know what they're doing. Right.

What are we talking about anyway? I didn't graduate from high-school so I'm having a hard time keeping up.

SleazyDream 10-10-2003 08:57 PM

Listen up folks.

Anyone who follows my posts KNOWS I don't just endorse people at random. If I can slam someone I do, and i don't really hesitate for ANYONE in that regard - from newbie to fantasyman or lensman.

Steve Jones (lightspeed) is a man that I have a LOT of respect for. He gives back to the webmaster community more than most companies 10X his size and is a GENUINE person who wears his heart on his sleve. I personally know many of his top affiliates and they ALL say his programs ROCK. I am HONORED to refer to him and the people of his crew as FRIENDs and I only humbully hope they think of me the same way.

As for the child porn shit that brad is talking about - it's all BULLSHIT. The law says 18 - and Steve has nothing but girls that are 18+ on his sites. He portrays them as such too, as some 18 year olds ARE still in high school - so some sets are of that nature. If he were to portray them as in elementry school I'd have a problem but Steve DOESN'T do that. I see NOTHING wrong with his business practices or how he shows his models. Lightspeed is a FIRST class operation.


Now for Brad Shaw, I've never met the man but I can say that I see that he shows a lot of hate. It's a horrible way to live and I truly feel sorry for Brad.


A great man died in Winnipeg (my city) the other day - Issy Asper, age 71. A world class billionaire, Isy had a saying. If you want money give it away. He donated MILLIONS to different charities in Winnipeg and against the advise of his acohahahahaants he often did it before he was financially ready to do it. Why? - because although Issy didn't use these exact terms Issy did believe in something like KARMA. He felt that everything he did would come back to him, and it did 10,000X over. So Issy would give millions and then go make his business deals and make Billions.

Steve is the porn world's equivalant of Isy Asper. Brad should take a lesson from that as Steve's examples are something to look up to, and aspire to.


My guess is that Brad's hatred towards lightspeed probally stems from Brad attempting a knockoff of some of lightspeeds programs that didn't work and now he's bitter about it and lashing out.


Steve - don't listen to this bitter asshole Brad. I truly believe you are a great man with an even greater destiny ahead of you. I simply feel sorry for Brad as his hatred has clouded his vision and he doesn't see the big picture.

Given the choice of a roll model, I publically state that I aspire to be more like Steve Jones.

bauhaus 10-10-2003 09:29 PM

Hell I gotta actually add as well.... Steve is one hell of a cool guy, very level headed in respects to this biz. And definitely one guy I think will continue to make some serious cash.

He keeps good people close to him and treats all his girls with respect, that I can vouch for...

All good Steve...hope to hook up with you again soon.

BradShaw 10-10-2003 09:32 PM

Obviously the Attorney General of Michigan has a problem with the appearance of the models on Steve Jones websites as well.

This business is not all about getting along. This is a fragmented business, except it. (look at acacia) Anyone remember the GIA that I presonally sank?

Steve told me point blank that he got into this biz due to his own sexual perversion. Steve is not a business man.

Brad - did you get into gay sites cause of some sort of underlying psychological urge to be invloved with that lifestyle?

I got into gay sites to make $, period. I got into this business for one reason, to make $. I think I have done a decent job, of course I am hard on myself and feel I could have always done better. As Greg pointed out, I would be happy to compare bank balances/new wealth, you could even keep yours in Candian dollars;-) Call it a spread.

I have always tried to take things from people who are more sucessful than me $. Sleazy, I can not take anything from you, preach all you want.

Brad - You know that the shit with the Michigan AG was bogus. She was looking for ammo for her campaign and as soon as she was assured she was going to win she dropped it because she knew she did not have a case.
You love to keep bringing it up but the fact is there was no case. If the Texas AG started an investigation into your being an asshole would that make it true? oh wait.. I digress..
The fact is Steve doesn't want to go anywhere near underage girls. He likes his girls to be 18. Not 17 or 19, but 18. 18 is legal and if you don't like it then tough. Different strokes for different folks. As long as it is legal, who gives a care.
Agree that you guys disagree and get over it. Why not go after the scumbags who actually cross the line rather than someone who is as clean as a pornographer can get.
We all deal with porn. We have fresh 18 year old girls. You have girls who look like pornstars. You sell lots of hardcore. We focus on softcore. To some impartial outsiders we may look cleaner than you.
This is like the Mini-wheat commercial. The frosted side says he is the best and the shredded wheat side says he is the best but they can't see that they are the same until they are being chewed to pieces in someone's mouth.
I'm sure you will keep flaming away at Steve because you obviously get your jollies from it. I know several people that have reduced or stopped traffic to you because they have come to realize you are an asshole and you revel in your assholiness. Keep flaming away, it only makes Steve look that much better.

Oh, as much as I hate to side with you Brad..
Sooners are going to kick Texas' ass! Longhorns are going down!

"Put the age at 21 years old. Atleast they have more between the ears. They may look young, but atleast they are more prepared. "


I have to agree with that most 18 yr old models are a little immature for the most part . So I try to make it a point to shoot no one under 21. I have been in Adult entertainment from strip bars to jack shacks to the web a total of 20 years. It was very very rare to find a 18 yr old model with her shit together. Usually they come from a fucked up home , have been sexually molested by a family friend or family member. Maybe throw in some drug use and living on their own since 16. I have shot two younger models one 18 and one 19 they were both High school drop outs. For the most part, girls from good families ,with a strong support structure dont become porn models.

I think most of us if the said 18 yr old was our daughter or sister or cousin or someone we cared about. We wouldnt be too happy with their choice. Kimmy I dont know if you have kids but if your 18 yr old daughter said Mom I am going to be a porn model. I highly doubt you would give your seal of approval. Saying the laws says she is old enough so its fine with me.

I dont know Steve or Brad but I have a certain amount of respect for people that run successful businesses. It really doesnt matter what any of us thinks. A girl has little to no makeup, her hair in pig tails looks young, we can say thats the 18 yrs old look and I agree 18 yrs olds do go to HS. The problem is not us , the problem is when your facing a jury in Iowa and they show these photographs to the jury. The question you have to ask yourself and this is for everybody, when the Feds Attorney is saying these girls were photgraphed to represent younger girls(and younger is 17 or younger in reality).Is the jury going to believe you or your photographs?

snuff boy 10-10-2003 10:15 PM

Steve is a pedo. I am in my early 20's and feel odd hanging out with girls younger than me. Steve is an old man, and delights himself hanging out with teen girls. How sad considering he has a wife I would fuck her brains out in real life...hope she is a MILF! hope she knows her husband is a pedoooooo! :1orglaugh

I have my net worth statement on my computer, updated through sept 30. Takes into account all debts, all monies and investments. A smart person does not go through life paying cash for everything ( I used to). In fact, I have my monies working for me in the market and various other investment vechiles, up about 20% this year. (not taking into account real estate) Paying an average of 4% on my mortage, you do the math.

it would be foolish to think you're the only person cable of or doing leaveraged investments.......


but most long term sucessful people I know have one thing in common. They own their house cause they don't NEED to leaverage it (andhave no desire to leaverage it either) and they buy all kinds of toys but toys are ALWAYS paid for with cash - never loans.

if the market turns - and it always does - then you keep your home and your toys.

if your home and toys are leaveraged - and the market turns - you're fucked.

yeah but remember that first gay site - $10 wasn't a monetary motivating factor. There was another reason behind it, and it's a desire to be involved in gay sites. the money came after, the love came first.

Sleazy, it is about being diversified. I have a very good financial advisor, who I speak with almost daily. I do not claim to know everything, thus I hire good people. One of my keys to success is hiring good people. Greg has made me millions.

BradShaw 10-10-2003 10:30 PM

Sleazy, as much as we go back and forth. I would bet if/when we meet we would get along. That is scary. Very few people I have butted heads with on chat boards that I did not get along well with in person. Opinions are like assholes, we each have them......

once again it would be foolish to think you're the only person who is diversified in their investments.


leaveraged, diversified, - want some other big terms? how about creditor proofing, asset allocation, differed tax growth, etc.

at a simple glance without knowing any real details i'd say if your advisors believe that leaveraging the equity in your home your risk tolerance on your personal equity portfolio is either EXTREMELY ( and psycho excessibly) high or your advisors are simply gouging your for investment fees and trying to get their hands on every penny they can without regard for your own personal safty net.

Apples and fucking oranges, man. What point are you trying to prove? At 18 it doesn't *matter* what the parents think, the girls are legally adults. If its such a bad job, why do you work in the industry? Thats like saying that smoking crack is bad, when you're the one peddling it on the street corner.

I have no one to answer to, no boss, so this has only to do with integrity. I wanted to stay out of it, but I just have to speak my mind also. After all that's what these boards are for.
Steve has asked me do do shoots for him on several occasions, and while I recruite local girls here in Phoenix for my own work, I respect Steve's Photography and oblige when ever possible. I never realized the implications of an over stuffed teddy bear, hell my girl friend has one and she's well into her 30s. I was even told no oversized lollypops or props that may represent underage girls. I laughed about it then, but trusted his judgement, and now I know why. Ya, Steve likes girls to look young, it's a niche. Get over it. If he wasn't shooting College age girls someone else would, only he's doing it better.
As for this whole thing about "if it was your daughter" Good Lord! If it was my daughter, she'd do it with or with out my blessing, as most of these girls are. Only I'd let her, and I'd introduce her to Steve. I'd trust him to shoot her tastefully, not try to jump her when no one's looking, or with some random cock in her ass. The girls have fun, and that's why the keep coming back. You give respect, you get it. You try to fuck'm, they'll fuck you!
Nough said, Hey Rochard, Tanker call me. Brad, I'll lookforward to meeting you. Peace out and Kewl Beans
