For a TGP guy to speculate about the paysite biz is funny. Sleazy, if you understood the paysite biz, and the margins involved, you would run paysites, not tgp's. Show me a TGP guy who has made major bling. I mean major.

Dig, I agree with you.

I wish I didnt have my head up my ass in 97 & early 98...

You are fucking hilarious. So you are their CPA? If people tell you they make $10 million, it means they make $1million. Call you MR. Gullible.

Only 1 person knows what I make, my CPA.

Ouch. Low blow Brad.

Divorce is always a painful experience. I wouldn't wish it on anyone. I endured 2 of them.

You got me, please show me a site that nets millions of year without a staff.

who's speculatiing?

you're assuming you really know all the businesses I own? Foolish assumption. but that's Brad....

It is a joke. WF has made a fortune, I bet if he says $20mil, it is much more than that. Ask sleazy, he seems to know who makes what in this biz.

many - it's called contracts.
not every business has hourly paid employees.

i love how you twist my words around - when did I ever say that?

This thread should have an e-Penis advisory placed on it

Sleazy, I am sure you have business of the internet that net millions. This TGP thing is just for kicks.

pshhhaaa, this is a stupid argument. Whatever the case is we both know that running paysites and TGP's leads to ulcers and is a 11 on the stress scale, and good domain speculation is like a drive on a sunny day with a topdown compared to it.

i base my knowledge on a little more than rhumors brad.


it's not too hard to figgure (very roughly) out who's a player and who isn't via expensis and time frame paying those expensis. And I'm not talking parties or booths either here.

Sleazy has at least one paysite that I've seen on my travels.

till the lawsuit hits for trademark or the like.

the grass is always greener.

domain spec is a good business - no doubt - and it has it's leaders and followers. but only an idiot would think that it's all gravy.

I know you're only kidding Brad.

Sleazy, Rick showed me his numbers, so trust me when I tell you this Rick could buy and sell everyone on this board and I mean everyone.

please tell me that $20 million over 8 years isn't the number you're referring to, cause if it is then I just lost a LOT of respect for you.

I like numbers :glugglug

Sleazy knows all :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

This thread is great. :thumbsup

As a business associate of Rick, I have to respect his financial privacy, so I'm not going to post numbers.

So I'll just say no its not.

Rick is no idiot, he knows that the IRS reads press.

This thread is getting stupid. Seriously stupid.

People are talking out of their ass without any factual first hand knowledge other than a couple here.

This is no buffet!

i dont know how Rick counted 8 years
it reality it was around 6-7 GOOD years, plus 96-97

but if you count 96 to 2004 that would be 8 years.

Allot more important then the actual figures is the whole story.
There's a great philosophy behind Rick's success and he keeps duplicating it, and keep making millions with it.
Is it enough? Never enough. Like all of us there's always new stuff to learn and innovate and he knows that. You can only count on one thing and one thing only - and that is CHANGE. Rick is WELL aware of that and taking advantage of it EVERY HOUR OF THE DAY. Wether it's domains, stocks, real estate - he got it down.

fair enough.


i never said I doubted the man at any point - only that $20 million over $8 years wasn't really impressive in the adult biz.

dispite what all the idiots here seem to think i don't know wired guy at all or much about what he does - just based my origional comment on what was in the article.

you seem hungry, are you eating enough these days?

I do them all, and so far, domain speculating is the least stressful, albeit I haven't been sued yet, I imagine that would rock the stress meter a bit, but you an domain speculate without infringing on any trademarks.

whatever, this thread is getting stupid, I'm done.:winkwink:

Shep, some people get it, others just keep sucking tgp cock.

You cant expect a blind man to see the road.

putting down one method of income generation over another is really the sign of someone who isn't that bright.

It's not the 3 million in revenues which is impressive numnuts....it's the 98.5% net profit margins.....think before you open your mouth

What's more impressive 3 million in INCOME off $3.1 million, or $3 million in INCOME off $100 million in REVENUES?

Great read this moring on WF. He's someone I've repected and listened too for many years. I even like a couple of his shirts :)

sleazy, those figures are a little low that I can tell you. But even with those numbers, and the small overhead that WF has makes them even more impressive.

WF could prolly buy about all of us, but then he would have to WORK :glugglug

lol

This thread fucking rocks. I'd rather own one great domain than 10 great TGP's any day.

Without a TGP?

thats the kind of money im talking about

oy..

well, if you have a clue about larger accounts then you'd know that the answer is 3 million off 100 million, as there's usually a lot more spinoffs accociated with the other 97 million that were spent.

Sleazy....your math skillz are amazing:1orglaugh
