    How long did it take for you to get rolling?

    how long did it take you before you were able to quit your job and do this full time?

    2 months? 6 months? years? still work a regular job?

    Still part time, and probably always will be.

      I'm hoping I'll be full time by June/July next year.

        I was so tired of my shitty job that i walked away and i said "i never come back"
        Well i didnt
        That hapenned in december i believe and since then i make a living from the web.
        It was a risk to walk away but it worked out fine.

          Depends how much cash you need to live on, what your overhead, what your revenue streams are and how comitted you are. If you bust ass you can make like USD25k a year at this in like two months.

          Is that enough for you to live on? Do you mean by 'live' drive a BMW? Or do you mean sleep all day, go to dollar movies, eat ramen and get your rent and bills covered...I'm about halfway in between the two and it didn't take as long as you'd think it would.

                  I could live on $25k /yr.

                  Right now I'm in the Ramen/rice/can't afford movies/can barely pay bills/don't drive a car stage.

                  Just doing galleries now and looking at inexpensive hosts to start my own tgp.

                  As for commitment, I really want to do this full time. It's all I can think about and I'm anxious to get it going. It feels like it's taking forever but I've only been at it for about 3 weeks.

                    Marcus, you might want to look at some of the other types of sites out there and not focus so much on TGP...

                    TGP may be the most popular, but it probley has the least number of truely sucessful webmasters...

                    It can be done, but for most Full-time webmasters it's a small part of their routine.

                          Well, I make about $2K a month on 30-40 minutes a day, so I guess that's not bad. Problem is that my techniques don't SCALE well so I could not make $4K a month even by spending 10 times as long doing the same thing.

                              I bought a few adult domains late last year, but "keenly" since April 2001.

                                  To be totally accurate, I should add that I don't count time reading BBSes and checking my sales stats as "work"

                                    Been doing this full time for three years.
                                    My husband had a job and worked this business part time until two years ago and now he's full time.

                                    There are four partners and we support twelve people...including ourselves....and nine dogs.....who we're trying to train as secretaries...it's been very hard.

                                    I wouldn't trade this biz for anything.
