Quick Question...Why did you end up in Adult???

At college venturing in to something new?

A dreary job wanting to go that extra step and be independent?

Avid porn surfer who clicked on that Webmaster link on most pages?

or whatever

sup?

Tech wreck of 2000.
I was the engineering manager at Nortel.
Started as a side biz or hobby.
We have never looked back since.
Its nice not watching the stock market to see if I have a job each day.

Because I could work at home. If I could have made the same money selling oranges working from home, I would have been selling oranges. Adult is merely a means to an end for me, not a lifestyle.

I had just graduated from college in 1999 - right in the middle of the dot com bubble bust. I had known Steve Lighstpeed on line for a few years, we had worked on a few websites together, and he offered me a job. With nothing else going on I moved to Arizona and the rest is history.

I started as a model in the biz to help pay off college loans...never thought I would model longer than a year. Became a webmaster because I got sick of things on my site never getting done, not getting done right, or not getting done on time. So I taught myself how to run my site and here I am...over 5 years later.

Started running a escort agency through college then left when dotcoms came along in 97 or so. Then it was 10+ years in the "corporate" mainstream, did gold rush runs on 3 waves; dotcoms, telcoms then financial. Rode them out and packed away some $, studied SE and SE analysis as a challenge, refused to sleep...did well enough to double my "corp" earnings, enough to semi-retire, took what i learned and implemented plans into adult. here i am now
