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?

AOL spam telling me I could make millions.

st0ned 04-04-2008 04:15 PM

Money. The government fucked the casino industry which I worked in previously, this was the next best thing.

munki 04-04-2008 04:16 PM

My girlfriend needed more free porn...

tranza 04-04-2008 04:19 PM

Because I started making a shit load of money from it as a hobby.

:)

BradM 04-04-2008 04:20 PM

I had a good domain name, people kept telling me to make it a porn site. So I did.

CurrentlySober 04-04-2008 04:20 PM

I got into adult because of my family values

BVF 04-04-2008 06:31 PM

The MAN kept me down so I fought back by selling black ass..

jakethedog 04-04-2008 06:39 PM

tony286 04-04-2008 06:41 PM

Ive worked in adult brick and mortar on and off for over 15 yrs.I liked the adult business and it beat working a corporate job.

Nicky 04-04-2008 06:43 PM

I was 16, what was I supposed to do? :D

Jon Clark - BANNED FOR LIFE 04-04-2008 07:14 PM

Just kind of fell into it and never looked back..

GrouchyAdmin 04-04-2008 07:45 PM

Got tired of the 9-5 corporate environment.

J. Falcon 04-04-2008 08:46 PM

I got lucky.

bdld 04-04-2008 11:18 PM

making money in adult was easier than mainstream.

Jens Van Assterdam 04-04-2008 11:36 PM

because i love porn :)

qxm 04-04-2008 11:40 PM

I kept having mental images of my female clients gettin' naked while they waited for my help at the bank where they used to work...........chickz who go to the bank asking for a loan are hawt! (I was also a big fan of Naughty America.....that site kept coming back to my mind over and over...)

marcop 04-04-2008 11:43 PM

My job was going to go to India.

NinjaSteve 04-05-2008 12:27 AM

The MAN kept BVF down so I fought back by selling... stuff.

Was that spam telling you the truth?

HouseHead 04-05-2008 12:34 AM

Started: Mailing when I was 15 on and off until I went full-time into adult about 2 and some change years ago.. Doing things legit..

Why I am here? Because I work with some of the best people in the industry, and enjoy coming into work everyday. And I know this is what I want to do. :thumbsup

95% of all replies doesn't actually answer the question

JimmiDean 04-05-2008 04:09 AM

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.

TimCase 04-05-2008 06:15 AM

Because I'm an old pervert.

I was like, hey, let's start a babe site to see how it will go.. it went crazy!!:1orglaugh

Peaches 04-05-2008 11:30 AM

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 much prefer the 8am to 2am to the 9-5, after all.

Rochard 04-05-2008 12:05 PM

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.

fuzebox 04-05-2008 01:16 PM

Tons of fun and I love porn. There's shitloads of ways to make money online, some of them easier than adult, but none of them quite as fun :)

Minte 04-05-2008 01:18 PM

My golf game sucked and I needed a new hobby.

Xrated J 04-05-2008 01:48 PM

my dad started in this biz in 95, so...like father, like son

scottybuzz 04-05-2008 01:56 PM

Looking for a free porn forum, stumbled across porncity and saw a link for an affiliate program.

nikki99 04-05-2008 02:02 PM

watching porn all the fucking day long

I'll second that... :2 cents:

I feel weird having to declare "Self Employment" earnings on my tax returns now.. since I still have a full time job.

My religion says I have to! :pimp

Jelena Jensen 04-05-2008 08:53 PM

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.

ePorn 04-05-2008 09:34 PM

I'm primarily a mainstream domainer with financial & aviation sites. but since i had a shitload of adult domains parked and they produced exactly NOTHING, i figured i give it a shot. Now i have a few sites and still don't make shit! :1orglaugh

ep

mikesouth 04-05-2008 09:40 PM

I got tired of being a rocket scientist

Eva PSC 04-05-2008 09:42 PM

a friend of mine talked me into being a model and he was gonna build a site for me, it was new for him too. I started modeling, but somebody else ended up building a site for me. And today, I take pictures and build sites :)

GAMEFINEST 04-05-2008 09:50 PM

Hot Babes ...duh

RTP 04-05-2008 10:13 PM

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

:1orglaugh

Anna_Miller 04-05-2008 10:14 PM

Well.. gee.. all my friends were doing it! :1orglaugh
(Actually that is true, but 9 great years later it was absolutely a good choice.)
