How much money would get you out of the adult business?

If someone bought my stuff for 2.5 million, I'd go do something else for a living. How much would it take to buy you out of adult?

Out of the adult business...

hmmm...

Let me do the math, a million in the bank with today's interest rates would be like what.. $50k a year?

It would take more than that fo' sho.

Although I could always invest it in something else like property, etc. But I actually enjoy 'some' of what I do. There are a lot worse jobs then working from my home office in my underwear.

None... been in "adult" all my life and no interest in changing now.

Adult has earned serious money to do loads of other things - tho they earn serious money as well now.

But nada chance of changing the spots on a leopard

$50.

It's more of a "do I want out or not" question than a dollar amount. When I'm ready, it'll take very little for me to hit the door.

Screw adult. I love the adult biz for teaching me the competitive edge and all the knowledge that I can apply now elsewhere.

If someone offered me $200K right now to get out and never come back I'm offski. This business is pissing me off right now and I'd take that money and pay my house off and get an easy job to make enough money to get by for a while before thinking what else I wanted to do.

While my adult assets are not worth anywhere near 1mil yet, just based on the potential I see in this industry if someone tried to bribe me into getting out of the biz I wouldnt do it for less then 1mil

It has to be over a mil.

My business assets are not worth over 1 mil, but I'm making over 6 figures a year in adult and I would not settle for less than a mil, preferably more.

Also, I like working from home, I could not psychologically be able to deal with a boss, production quotas, efficiency quotas, quality control, office politics, all of the stuff that comes along in a real job. I just would not be able to handle it at this point.

My job is not that hard. It's very relaxing. Jobs in the real world are stressful, I mean very stressful and it puts a lot of toll on you day in day out.

I would need several mil so I can invest it and not have to work for someone else.

A million would get me to drop everything I'm doing and leave adult for good. I'm not saying my business is worth a million, but that's what it take for me to leave it all behind.

Good lord, you guys are cheap! Or do you really not like this industry?

For me, the price is double digit millions, because it has to be enough for me to retire and live a life of ridiculous luxury forever. I've never been happier than I am selling porn over the internet -- it's a great income for remarkably slight effort and zero stress. I'll be doing this until I die or until I'm too rich to give a shit, whichever comes first. Why would anybody want out of this industry? Color me baffled.

Yes, it would definetly have to be enough so that I didn't have to have a "real job". I couldn't deal with one.

I would take about a million and a half, and spread it up two ways: Million invested properly to bring nice annual income, and 500k to start something new... maybe more net stuff but some other angle.

Anyone wanna cut me a check?
