    Do you remember getting your first check in the porn business?

    What was it for, the amount and how did you feel?

    I suppose my first one would of had to of been getting a check for selling photos of my wife, via mail order, in 1977.

    First Internet income check would of been from Scarlett Content when it was run by the couple in Texas. They were brokering our content. Up until then all the sales had been cash, had a great customer in Pasadena who bought images he took off slides and paid $3 to $10 each. That would of been in the 90s.

    Those were the days.



    Blowout deal. 880 videos, 2,400 image sets, plus many RAW videos. $500.
    PM me for a deal. Skype Paulmarkham70

                      First cheque for porn was from Real Sex Cash for about £27, but my first cheque from adult was some time before that, from one of the swinger sites I used to promote.

                                  damn cant really remember but had to be a CCBill check around 2001. can't imagine it was for more than $60 (though if it was, i was happy about that $60)

                                  edit: nope.... first 'official' check from the biz was for when i worked for Leisure Time. payroll

They were paying me $10 per to start and I didn't even know Photoshop. That was back when we were capping using terrible programs like btvpro and vhs tapes for rare scenes and then blending 4-8 images together. I quickly learned though and started making them too fast so they had to put me on salary...haha. It's been a nice ride ever since.

                                                                                                                          Those were the days.

Back then, I was just a wee lad and that one check seemed like all the money in the world. Most people don't know that the reason iFriends is called Clickcash is because when they started, they payed $0.02 - $0.04 per click. And if my memory serves me correctly, they weren't a dating/cam site. They ran porn sites.

I got a check for $500 in the post. My mom asked how I made it. I just said it was junk mail not a real check lol.

Might get back into mainstream tho.

I did get a few fedex cash envelopes before but it was 50-80 bucks each time and it was hard work for pennys

They never approved my site and later took it down but I made that amount from one day of it being up. They did the honorable thing and sent payment for my earnings despite not approving my site.

A short time later Tanker emailed me asking if I was looking for a job. Ironically, I told him there was no money in porn. (Opps.)

They came in a white box and we had to cut up the brochure and glue the movie synopsis on the box.

I had all 75 or so VHS titles available in a glass counter for sale for $100 each.
