15. How did running an escort agency turn into an adult webmaster business for you?
A girl I went to school with wanted 10 pagers from me, she told me it was for an escort agency she wanted to start. That sounded pretty exciting for a sheltered Jewish boy from the suburbs! I became an investor and thought it would be a great way to make some extra coin and have fun with some French chicks. It turns out I?m a lousy pimp! But I did meet a girl who wanted her own website, I had a friend who worked as a graphic artist, so I hired them both and it started! Around the same time Rogers was pushing me to open a retail location, and I had no interest in that, so I sold them back my agent code and started my career in adult webmastering!
Did the bikers and police ever scare you?
Thankfully it was the police that knocked on my door before the bikers. It was 2 officers that worked with the Morality Squad of the Montreal police looking for an escort that may have worked for the agency I was involved with. I wasn?t arrested, they just wanted to know if I knew where she was, and to let me know that they keep an eye on all agencies. Although running an escort agency is technically illegal, they tolerate it, and that my biggest issue is not them but the bikers coming to shake me down they continues to tell me. That was just about all I needed to say I?m Out!
