What is the typical / minimum return on investment you demand or expect or aim toward with your new ventures and or thoughout your overall business model?

It's not the ROI that's important - its the stability of the cash flows. The biggest problem with adult businesses is the traffic (and profits) can evaporate so fuckin' quik. A change in policy by a payment provider plus a new competitor and its curtains.

Normally, I'd look for 30% pa for an adult biz which looked stable (ie a solid, diversified user base)

I dont have a quantified amount.. but there are a lot of things I know I could work and make decent coin at.. but too much work/time for the money.

I agree, stability of cashflow is extremly important and I think around 30% is realistic for a long-term/ solid business. I'm sure some people in here are pushing much higher figures around though.
