Here's some BAD advise that all the morons out there THINK is good advise

1. Diversify.
2. Go Mainstream.
3. Follow what others say is right against what you think and know yourself.

those 3 mistakes cost me millions.

real money is made by specialists in this world

I agree with #3 but #1 & #2 works for some of us... Sorry.

The grass is always greener, right? :1orglaugh

A good businessman is willing to fail nine times to succeed once.

Or.....

You did it in a vacuum without experienced successful consultants.

True that:
"Fall seven times, stand up eight." - Japanese proverb

You can't succeed unless you fail first, it's rare to have someone find success the first or even the 10th time out. Although, in any business you'll find someone who gets lucky and succeeds the first time. Remember that MySpace layout chick who made like 80k/month at 17?

Besides, isn't it happiness that matters? Mo' money, mo' problems is so true. I was a happier person with less money. Go figure? The more I focus on things other than making money, the happier I am!

I got arrested a couple weeks ago for fighting in a bar, got thrown in the drunk tank with the network admin(TOP guy, so he said) of a major Canadian bank. Guy had red wine all over him. His fiance threw it in his face at some expensive bar in Yaletown after he told her that she has to cut back on spending his money or they can't marry.

Imagine that, top of your game, the most money you've ever made in life, top of the chain at work. Then you meet a woman you love, get engaged, and then she ends up ordering $70 glasses of red wine at your dinner that you intended to tell her to stop spending 3k a week. The guy told me he's living paycheque to paycheque AND she's draining his savings. She doesn't work. Of course, could all be bull, but the guy seemed to know his computers. Long story short, girlfriend threw the wine at him and left, he paid the bill, left, and started SCREAMING in rage in the middle of the street. He didn't think he would be arrested so fast. He dumped his ex girlfriend a year prior and regrets it every minute. Poor guy was crying for hours in the drunk tank, and pleaded with the other guys in there to never dump a good girl for a whore.

Fuck that was a fun night!

Some good advice in there.

"paycheque to paycheque " LOL!!!!

that last line is the best philosophy to live by!

Opening a bar is not what anyone I know means when it is suggested to try mainstream.

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :thumbsup

actually i bought a building I was putting offices in that had a bar in the basement. I funded someone else to run it, he robbed me, I took it over and hated every minute of it.

Again, not exactly what is meant when told to try mainstream. That would be brick and mortar.

"Mainstream" would mean working online, but diversify into something outside of adult.

There is definitely money to be made there.

Here is some great advice. Stop making stupid threads and attempting to draw attention.

Now here is a piece of wisdom. Nobody runs your business but yourself. So all decisions that lead to failure can be blamed on you. Scapegoats are the easy way out for everyone. That is why they are failures.

1. Diversify is good but only if you have *very* good people working for you.

so listening to you would mean I'm on the road to doom?

Next time hit me up.

I would have rented the offices first and then opened the bar and gave all tenants a
drink card for two free drinks everyday after 5pm and 4 free drinks on friday and saturday
after 10pm. 20% discount on all drinks other times.

The cost of their drinks comes out of their rent and because they are frugal they tell
everybody to meet them there after work.
They couldn't resist using their keys to go back up to the office to fuck!
No hotel bills or money trail to follow.

Company lunches/meetings/parties would be $2 drinks and catered food.
First two lunches free for new tenants. Get them down in groups and get them hooked!

The tenants would have built your bar.

That's what I would have done on day one.....and then I would have started
with the real money makers.

You would not have lost any money with me.

that's why? ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
where the fuck were you?

I have one *for web models*... don't make a site with someone just because the websites look pretty! *personal experience* lolol Research = Knowledge.... Knowledge = Power .... Power = FTW! lol *nerd girl*

Great advice from someone that I am guessing does nothing. Because anyone trustworthy posts here. Any they will make it worthwhile to invest in something based on your idiot logic.

owning a club is on my list of things to do you beat me to it :(

Well if you think what I said was dumb then maybe you hired someone to run things
and then got in their way about the "dumb shit" they were trying to do and that's the
results you got.

Most certainly! Most likely I am as clueless as the next guy when trying to give you advice on how to run your business. I don't know the outstanding circumstances. Nobody does but you. Listen to yourself!

Or listen to Dokken. I am right now and Don is telling me that Paris is burning.

Please insult me in a comprehensive statement written in standard english so I
can understand what the fuck you mean.

My apologies. I wasn't paying attention to what I was typing so I didn't reread and correct what I wrote. But I will paraphrase...

Those who can't, teach

Those who don't succeed are bountiful with advice that if they took, would make them masters of their domain.

What are you the master of? It apparently is many things. But what is your focus of expertise?

Lesson good learned.

Don't trust no one.

That's a reasonable advice.

My motto is: "If At First You Don't Succeed, Fuck It!".

BTW, it is "advice" not "advise"... :2 cents:

ADG

Well, you got me on that one.

I've never done anything in my life.

I'm sure your cock is bigger than mine also. :(


















:1orglaugh

thanks for that hot info

this is the only rule I follow

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaughSleazy you`re funny

Why you say go mainstream with your project on a board that is mostly online based mainstream in my eyes is still online but just not adult and that is what i do mostly right now and it IS very profitable i would suggest you use go offline next time better for understanding purposes :winkwink:

Btw you used someone else to run the project would you also give a total stranger 20k to start up a business for you?

and about following if you think multimillion dollar marketing studies lie well go ahead think like that but i would listen and learn from those studies they are right if the standards that those study`s have been based on compete with your project.

Anyways 1 thing i hope you learned is: Take lots of prestudy and see what succeeding others are doing and how they do it and than copy the good things they do and adjust and maintain the bad parts that they do.

And next time you want to start a business don`t jump right into it with your eyes closed from the moment you have the money to buy and hope for the best that is just begging to let it fail.

Your money, contacts and experiance could make both of you money

Sht i knew i was doing something wrong! :1orglaugh

:2 cents::2 cents::2 cents::thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup

You realize that if this worked you could remove the part about buying the building and renting offices etc. You could just open the bar and give the discount.

This is the #1 statement by which to recognize idiots :2 cents:

Consulting is an industry worth billions. Selling advice is just like selling anything else.

It's not too late to turn sleazydream into a tube

If your first concept ends up being more successful ones than all others that follow it then yes diversification will cost you. I think that is included in the definition of diversification. Many people would think it is worth the safety.
