Full Time Webmasters....If online porn ended tomorrow - what would you do?

I`ve been working online now for a couple of years and the thought of doing a real job makes me feel particularly uncomfortable even though I`d be confident of picking up quite easily where I left off two years ago ( telecoms + media sales ).

Other people here?

Since I am a programmer I would go mainstream. I would be bummed because I make good money in adult, but if it went away I would still be able to live.

Sure I don`t think it will end because I think I`m right in saying that online adult entertainment continues to experience excellent growth year on year.

And I don`t think we will ever encounter the China situation purely because of the nature of that country.

But I`m sure you know where I`m coming from.

The thought of having to get up in the morning and going to a place of work....no thanks.

Just a few months ago, I would have had to go back to the drawing board. Now I've diversified myself enough that disaster in any area doesn't have to mean total disaster.

Online porn ain't gonna end :-) It may end up, probably will, - a totally different market than we see today.

Loads of currently unknown factors can affect the biz - from banning by countries to messing in the money side by people like card companies. But online porn is here to stay...

What would I do if the porn market disappeared? Hell.. devote some more time to other shit that earns me far more money for far less work at the moment!

Well, I would go back to buying and selling nickel, cobalt ,copper, zinc, tin, brass, & solder along with the chemicals that go with them for plating...I would have to go to my previous employers competition and go through a nasty lawsuit so lets hope that it never happens and if it does it needs to wait another 3 years!

Seems that many people would continue to work online through mainstream / SEO and plenty of peeps who would still crave their porn addiction ( beat off rapidly till my cock turned purple.... ).

i made my comment based on the Topic

though there's lots of success stories in the field of Adult business, not all of us will be working in adult as a full time career until you retire. there's always something out there beside this business
