working at home is best anyways... you can fuck your wife, work naked.... jack off... the works...

Some people have motervational problems, so having a boss is a very good thing!

I deffenitley would but I am working online only now anyway.

i fucking hate being told what to do. All my partners are my friends and I'll never listen to anyone else.

This world is all about leverage...even the strong and wealthy above you will fall to their knees when you have your shit together.

well, you will lose your benefits like health insurance and such if you quit...provided your job has that.

do you enjoy your job? thats what really matters I guess

That's the same position I'm in right now.. I'm making a decant income from adult and I could just about live off it alone. However you never know what's up with adult. One month could be record sales and the next could be your worst month of the year.

I also think $10k a month is the magic number, that's my target number for the end of the year. I may get there sooner but it's my year end goal reguardless.


I think your best is to do like I'm trying to do, which is to keep doing your other stuff and reinvest your extra money. I'm looking at doing the outsourcing deal, which will allow me to farm out more of my grunt work that I don't have time to do, so I can get some of my other projects going.

If you quit you are only making $2k with wouldn't give you much extra money to expand. However with the $4k you could have some extra to reinvest.. get yourself and outsouced guy and have him build you free sites, AVS sites or galleries all day and submit them.

you only ask that question beceause your not sure you gonna make 4k when you quit your day job. Advice : Make more hours and make 4k with your site. Then quit your job.

lol....i make a little more than 4 grand buddy.

That's pretty much what I did... I worked fulltime at an internet company for 3 years, towards the end started to get into both contract programming and affiliate marketing, and although it supplemented my income very nicely, I wanted the freedom of self employment...

Was a rocky road to start but no regrets :thumbsup

I rmemeber the day I went full on head into the adult world...it would take a damn good record exec job to make me go back into the mainstream world

You're not over the edge yet. Get to 6K - 8K in adult and then it's time to quit the regular job !

50 centsssss

Me too. On the same note, i don't mind being subcontracted.

I'd like to quit

Probably go ahead and do the online thing. There is no 'job security' online nor offline these days.

Marty... if you're worried about the extra 400 bucks don't. You'll be just fine. :winkwink: :winkwink: :1orglaugh

Hey TDF long time no see :thumbsup

Yes and I did. I was making less than that from my day job and less than that online and now I make almost $8000 a month on adult.. Fuck mainstream and fuck a real job. The internet is way profitable and this is really a no brainer.

why the question then?

Must people wouldn't (and I'm not I would personally do it iether), you see this work is very very volatil (sp), its easy to make lots of profits one month and then in 3 months you ain't getting shit compared to what you used to.

Meanwhile besides healthcare, and such, that "normal" job would be there for you provided you don't fuck up bigtime..

Being your own boss is great.

I think you need the outlook here as well.
Internetincome is variable. Where do you expect your income to be a year from now?

Thanks for your support

goodbye mainstream world... i only hope that internet is forever..

I think we all have been faced with a similar descion - being in an industry that is so young with new businesses popuping up everywhere this is something we all go through at some stage - we've all chosen our paths and MOST of us are happy ;)

good luck - think it through

is the industry getting better in your opinion or dying out?

Security is a myth. Any job could downsize you tomorrow. The employees are the last to know the ship is sinking.

I would trade that extra $400 and my false sense of security in a second for the FREEDOM that self employment buys.

For me it's always been the freedom. I have been a business owner for 8 years and sometimes it's easy to loose sight of how good I have it. All I need to do is remember a time when I had to beg for a day off to go to the dentist and I know I am better off now.

Sorry but working on your own online has much less security, specialy if you are starting out, unless you have a shit job for starters (fast food chains,etc..)

It is getting better and better. It is getting bigger and more diverse so there are more and more ways for you to get a piece of the pie. I get my pie from about 8 different methods and each makes between 500 to 4000 a month. I think that is also key. After you are doing one thing good to great, start something else and do it good, then another and another... Keep going until you have 5 to 6 different revenue streams and then go back and optimize them for better profits. Next, make more sources and keep going again for 4 to 5 more. I need about 2 more and then I can look at what I've done and optimize before the next launching.

Also, DO NOT WASTE TIME! Don't sit around looking at Stats Remote. Watched stats don't grow. You need to be creating more shit. If you find that you have nothing to do today, buy another domain name and open another TGP or something. Built 5 or 6 more free sites.. Just stay active.

i like it!

Yes, unless the other job was being an oral sex condom product tester dummy.

I'm still trying to figure out that myself...

I know for once that my GF would leave me...

Cuz im fucking nosey!

If you're making only 2k, you're doing something wrong...
