Now that is professionalism, class and respect. Thank you Chris for recognizing the business women in the industry...you definitely have some of the best on your team!

Thanks for a great, insightful read! :thumbsup

Mike Price is a branding guru and understands the way to do it effectively. Johnny V is an oracle of great advice. My former partners, Clay and Joel forgot more about processing than most will ever learn. Rand, what a great communicator. And then there are the ?Quiet Ones? that are truly pulling the strings, making deals, staying low and focused and making money and futures for many. Last, but not least (and I could not get all the people I admire in here?) is Karups. They were never my clients, just friends. These guys actually update content, call their members, care about every single aspect of their business. They are the best run program out there, imo.

As for those I look down on, well I?d like to say I don?t look down on others, but I do. The answer would have to be those that fraud programs, systems or the industry. The parasites that give us all a bad name. Those that exploit children and others. They are scumbags.


OK, half way there Sleazy....

It?s an honor to be mentioned as someone you look up to in this biz I hope I don?t let you down in the years to come.
I have a few more tricks up my sleeve? Actually many more :winkwink:

Chris you are truly and honorable person and business man and you never look down on others which makes you a lovable guy, always ready with a helping hand unless they deserve to get the back hand LOL

long live epassporte!

digifan 08-16-2005 09:03 PM

It's a great read and interview.. congrats :)

Matt Collins 08-16-2005 09:23 PM

Excellent Ambush Interview, Sleazy! This is the one I had been looking forward to and it did not dissappoint!

It was great seeing Chris, Shaliza and Christy all together again at Internext-I know ePassporte will be a huge success!

Now you gotta do Tony Morgan of www.natnet.com. Tony and his crew rule the hosting world and I know he has some great stories from the early days of the adult online business.

I attended a great College Prep School in Texas. I did not go to College, however. I guess the Prep was too much. What really happened was my Dad had a major heart attack; he was 42 and we were not very well off financially at that time, as a family and I had to go to work. My kids are going to University, no matter what. Thankfully I have provided for that in case I have The Big One a little sooner than one would hope.

People always think that I did really well without going to University so maybe it is not important? I always have and always will disagree. I think that education is critically important and especially today. Street smarts and a great Prep got me through, but it would have been a lot easier if I had the opportunity to go to school. Don?t get me wrong, I am happy about my life, I just want to always be one that says ?Go to school!? ?Get a Degree!? It is a lot easier when you actually understand the terms people are using and don?t have to leave the meeting to look them up.

I think doing Tony would be great! Quite a few people now have mentioned they look up to Tony in this business, I'd love to see his interview.

30. How much does your hotel room suite usually cost at most shows you attend?

I get my suite comped in Vegas by the casino. In Florida it was around $600 a night. Sometimes I have much more expensive suites if the show is in Europe, or wherever. I do all of my meetings in my suite, usually, so that is both a luxury and a necessity, imo.


31. What's your favorite color? What color is your bedroom bathroom sink?
Saphire Blue.
Brushed Stainless where I am now.

32. Do you have any plans on retiring or leaving online adult in the near future? discuss

No. I like the people, the opportunities, the out of the box thinking and the creativity of this industry. I am happy doing what I do.


And I'm done.... Thanks everyone and thanks Sleazy.

thanks chris - i really appreciate your candid answers and I got a LOT of positive responses from all those that read this. You're a class act :thumbsup

Wow Great Interview, Thanks Chris, I am also honored to be one of the people you mention above, we are pushing Epassporte a lot harder these days and are very excited to be working closer with you on future projects :)


I love this part :) One name comes right to my mind :)

what a great read!

Rand 08-17-2005 12:11 AM

Great interview Chris.

I truly enjoyed and value the time I was able to work so closey with you. I learned and experienced a lot.

I remember when you first mentioned the concept of ePassporte and it seemed like such a magnanimous project. Epoch was a start up when I came to work for them, and it was a real joy to be a part of another ambitous business venture so full of opportunity. It's been a real pleasure to be a part of ePassporte and see it develop into the product that it has. And... I know you've only just begun.

I wish you and the entire team at ePassporte, most who've been my co-workers along the way, all the very best as you move forward and take it to the next level.

Cheers to you.

Major (Tom) 08-17-2005 12:27 AM

great job sleazy!
Chris, you are an interesting guy for sure. I hope to meet you one day and have some of your wisdom rub off on me :)

Cheers, and thanks for a great read.

Thank you Rand. You are a good man and a good friend. Thanks for all of your help. You introduced me to the business and to the players, from Day 1. There were time I had to duck, but you always had my back. See you soon.

Enjoy Burning Man!

Matt Collins 08-17-2005 05:37 AM

You're right Chris, not only Tony, but I think everyone would love to see Ron interviewed by Sleazy!

Thank you for doing the interview with Sleazy, you know its good when even your friends learn something.

Chris will you be in Curacao this October?

Chris,
first of all, thank you very much for the kind words. We have never done any business at all, but I consider you a good friend. If you ever need anything, I am there for you. I would like to say that I truly appreciate our friendship and respect you as a friend and as a businessman. I never really went to the shows and hung out with lots of people from our industry, but ever since I started hosting with Tony I started popping up and have had the chance to meet some really great people. You all know who you are because you are the ones I see when we meet up. Knowing all of you guys has really changed my outlook in lots of ways and I wish nothing but the best for you and your family! Thank you to Tony, Chris, and Ron for all of your generosity and hospitality to me and my crew everytime we meet up. You guys are all great guys and you all take very good care of your people.
Roger V: You are the man. Love your attitude bro dont change a thing!
