BradM · 05-02-2004, 11:34 PM

This is an honest to god poll. You do NOT need to lie to yourself or anyone else. This is an ANONYMOUS poll.

So don't lie. There is no need to.

StuartD · 05-02-2004, 11:36 PM

KaLi · 05-02-2004, 11:36 PM

I'm winning so far

Ironhorse · 05-02-2004, 11:37 PM

I'm doing b2b design work, does that count? Although I'm working on some of my own stuff later this year.

Oh Sheila · 05-02-2004, 11:37 PM

Those choices are for pretty low amounts.. why would it be worth your time if you're making less than $3k a month??

Post how much you make. Did I ask what you thought of the amounts?

This is to test some theories.

reynold · 05-02-2004, 11:38 PM

A huge % of the people in the industry are part timers... just get some galleries in here and there or toss up a TGP hoping to make a little extra money on the side.

BradM · 05-02-2004, 11:42 PM

Damn straight. And it's nothing to be ashamed of either. Not like everyone can be making 10k a month!

I am lucky to make 1k a month. I have 2 mainstream sites were i make about 80% of my income. If there are people makeing more than 3k a month i give them props

stevecore · 05-02-2004, 11:46 PM

i make no money at all, i do favors for favors.

Jace · 05-02-2004, 11:57 PM

it took me almost 2 years to even come close to breaking the $2k barrier.....but this past year I just spent it listening to everyone, and learning everything I can...then applying that to my work...my monthly income has almost doubled every month since.

the Shemp · 05-03-2004, 12:00 AM

i answered honestly

Same here... I haven't touched the 2k mark yet but adult for me is not the main source of income. Taking pics, running websites and promoting... that's good fun!

And not only fun - I learned a lot about real 'internet marketing' doing adult and ... sucessfully applied this knowledge it in my other ventures

Snake Doctor · 05-03-2004, 12:23 AM

There's money in this adult thing??

shit by looking at those results i should just drop all my adult stuff and go back to mainstream only. 2 years of wasted time. I could be makeing 100k a year from mainstream is i didnt decide to try a run in this biz.

Marie · 05-03-2004, 12:46 AM

Hey! I'm just starting up

But the good thing about this poll is that the first spots are a little too small for me... so I'm heading in the right direction!!

Jimbo · 05-03-2004, 12:47 AM

lol 3 grand is the max?

would have needed a better variety of choices.

looks like I'm a big baller

If you're earning, why not brag about it?

pure energy · 05-03-2004, 02:36 AM

There's nothing better than enjoying what you're doing while earning lots of bucks!

Goose · 05-03-2004, 02:39 AM

still not enough to live from it only...

CuriousToyBoy2 · 05-03-2004, 03:02 AM

Why do so many seem to dodge the issue?

I have worked my butt of for near on 5 years..

2000..... can YOU buy me a coffee?

2001..... can YOU spot me a dollar for a coffee?

2002..... it's OK, I can pay for my own coffee!

2003..... can I buy YOU a coffee?

2004..... after I pay for dinner, can I also buy you a coffee :-)

The above is not a joke, that's pretty much been the story...

Seriously, the programs and sites I run (and I have partners remember!!) will GROSS a LOT of money this year.

It did last year too, but most of that is reinvested in the long term plan.

Personally, I make 4 figures per week in wages now, and I have at least 7 (seven) affiliates who regularly make MORE per week than I do.

And I like it like that. That means our product and service is solid and WILL stand the test of time.

We have built a business, and one that is here to stay.

At the end of the day, somewhere down the track, there will be NO affiliates earning more than I personally do, and I will be in a position to not keep working and semi-retire, and then eventually retire. Don't kind yourselves, you will be reading my crap on GFY for quite a few summers to come :-)

But it will be closer to age 40 than age 65.

There is no quick fix, there is no magic formula, it's all about hard work and commitment.

After quite a long time of franks and beans I am NOT ashamed to say I can now eat steak - EVERY night.

I am simply a businessman who makes and sells sex.

And there is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to be ashamed of with that.
