I'm going to bookmark this thread. AFF rules :thumbsup

There is no one I have met in this business who has the technology skill set and vision like Andrew; I have always followed how AFF does business. The other person who is same caliber as Andrew is Steve Jobs whome I worked with at NeXT.

Shoot... I gotta start dating some Swedish women to quash these

speak enough to get myself into a bar fight. Our first language
specific dating sites was in Chinese at http://asiafriendfinder.com.

mountain roads , I soon found that it's a total guy magnet.
Women assume that I must compensating for something
with a Ferrari and every guy wants to be my new best friend.
I'm sure that someday there will be a Brokeback sequel that
features sports cars.

I recently parked it with this sign

and then someone lifted it... and it turned up here

My next car will probably be an old truck.

when the power goes off at your house and you realize that there was
a time where people were not addicted to the Internet.

Yah - the mansion was a lot of fun! Was so great to finally meet many of our affiliates... at what a better location :)

Do you own offline businesses?

What's it like to know that you can buy most things and they won't make a dent in your bank account? Is it fun, or anti-climactic, or something else? Is the "mo money, mo problems" adage true or false?

How did you grow your business initially. Did you "hire" friends or family to help you operate it. In other words are some of your closest friends also in the top chain of command at FriendFinder Inc? Or did you go straight to finding people outside of your circle of friends to delegate jobs to.

How old were you when you launched AFF? Did you run any sites prior? Why personals? Why not porn?

Do you think you could start off in the online world and repeat your current success or have similar success?

What are the most important lessons you've learned as an entrepreneur?

Did your sites ever use 3rd party billing or always merchant? Why or why not? I've read that in the early days some sites started out by taking mail orders because the internet hadn't yet created ways for billing users.

If you had to choose between money, power, or women, which would you choose?

Mr. Jim 02-17-2006 06:18 PM

Andrew I want to thank you for being an available and supportive AA sponsor and dance partner.

I think Adult Frank Finder is one of the most trusted names in finding good quality Hot Dogs on the Net...:)

Yah, this is one of our interview questions. Suppose you were
on a game show (e.g., let's make a deal) where a new car was
behind one of 3 doors and nothing behind the others. Let's say
you guess door #2. Now instead of showing you what's behind
door #2, I tell you that it's NOT behind door #1. Now, would
you want to change your pick to door #3? (answer later)

betsy! 02-17-2006 06:23 PM

haha exactly sagi. :P

hey grunt! ;)
