What satisfaction do you get out of working in this industry?
 

All monetary gains aside, does working in this industry make you happy? Do you find it to be rewarding work? Are you passionate about your work? If not, what is your true passion and why aren't you making a living from that?

So besides the money in the bank aspect of working in online porn, what motivates you to keep pursuing this as a career?

Discuss.

Own schedule, work from home, no boss, working with the internet/marketing, etc etc.

Working any time you want.. freedom.

Beina able to meet friendly and helpfhul individuals..LOL!

its all about the $$

And then get into internet arguments with them :1orglaugh

its a laid back environment. shows are fun. its still a job though..

duke

making my own schedule

Better than working a normal job :1orglaugh

I like looking at hot naked women all day, and making good money doing so :)

i get to jerk off Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner time.


L$

Not being bossed around, working on your own terms

What about this industry and your part in it makes you feel rewarded at the end of the day?

bump

8 char...

$$$ - can't get any better reason than that.

being my own boss... nothing better!

Its all about bling!

Knowing that I dont have to be anywhere anytime other than when I choose to be there and when.

Time independence is the key to happiness.....

Decent money and free porn....what more could you ask for?

the $$$ and the freedom

Freedom to attend all my kids events and stuff, and work my own hours, stay in jammies if I want, spend my money on lingerie instead of work clothes, lol.
I'm still not making big money so it's more the fringe benefits than the cash for me.

But you can have the same freedom of your own schedule etc with any home based business... what motivates you to continue pursuing adult as a career? Are you truly passionate about your work? What would you rather be doing if you got paid the same?

I don't enjoy it at all, but for health reasons I can only work at a home-based business and I doubt there is any other I could have neglected so badly for so long, yet still be making money from it.

This is the first time in 35 years that I am selling something for which I am not a customer. That means I have to guess at what people want, which has pretty much confined me to generic porn. I also miss talking to customers and observing them, because that always gave me so many ideas.

And basically I'm a concepts person and an organizer/manager. But these days I have to be a jack-of-all-trades, which is both tedious and - because I spend a lot of time on some things and still cannot reach the standards I would like - frustrating.

of course money..

Money talks...bullshit walks ;)

Freedom!

but would you rather be doing something else if you got paid the exact same amount?

Nothing

I got started in this biz when I was about 15-16. It was great then... money came easily and it was FUN. I could fuck around on my computer all day and get a check in the mail the next week.

But as time went on and I got older, I found it harder to keep myself on schedule. I'd find myself sitting at my computer for hours and accomplishing absolutely nothing. I was still paying the bills but I was just so fucking burnt out from being on my computer all the time I almost couldn't stand to look at it.

That's why I went out and got myself a regular job (my first ever) so I can see how much better this is and maybe it'll keep me on track more whenever I jump back into the game... which now seems like it might be a while because of all this new 2257 shit.

I can't believe I typed all of this shit while my beers getting warm.. so.. that's it

:thumbsup

Own schedule, easy money. I even get to use my creative skills. Pretty neat.

I do this because I really love it! I get the chance to work with some really cool people, and I also get to meet people from all around the world that in any other job I wouldnt get to meet!

I guess I just like porn, because I am passionate about what I do and I want to keep going with it :thumbsup

I like waking up in the middle of January when it's -30 outside. I watch the neighbors scraping their windshields and struggling to start their cars.

I'll sit back, watch some news and have a smoke while laughing at them.

There's nothing better, except sending the wife out to get me a coffee 5 minutes after they've all left.

yeah, its the freedom. you can't just walk away from a day job when you need to get something else done.

Ok, assuming I had an alternative that offered the same freedom and finacial perks, I still don't think I'd switch..the people in this biz are some of the most interesting, colorful folks I've ever worked with. It's fucking fun-I went to my first show this year, and hey, let's face it, checking out nude hotties isn't such a bad thing, either, lol.
