Name:
NickName: Shap
Real name: Sean

Age:
30 (YUCK, I'm officially part of the older generation of our industry)

Location:
Nassau, Bahamas

Relationship Status:
Married for 3 years.

Have Kids:
None

How Long in Adult:
8 or 9 years. I can never remember when i started.

How did you get started:
Long story. Stumbled on persiankitty.com and saw her counter and was hooked. I ran a few different free sites when I started and did ok. Never stuck with any of them. First thing I stuck with was PicWarehouse. It started as a link list and became a CJ. It was a top 10 ranked traffic site for about a year. Then before CJs started to decline I took all my traffic and started some really high quality tgps and turned all my CJ traffic into Tgp Bookmarks.

What do you do/own to generate income:
Paysites and Tgps. Main sites are Twistys.com and Thumbzilla.com

How many hours do you work a week:
Between 75 and 95

Do you consider yourself successful:
Yes.

Famous GFY moment:
There have been alot of infamous moments. The biggest in recents years going head to head with Mallick during ibill's tough times. My best and most helpful post in the past year would have to be

How do you think most people on GFY see you:
Brutally honest, hard working, passionate and sometimes a real loud whiny bitch

How many people on GFY have you met (in person ):
100s

How many shows have you been to:
Maybe a dozen or so.

Good qualities about yourself:
Most people who have met me and spent time with me would know I'm a very passionate and honest person. I think i'm a pretty good coach/motivator and love to help people improve their business.

What do you do offline for fun:
Not much these days. Play hockey once a week. Would love to boat and golf more.

What is the biggest amount of money you lost, to who, and how:
I've lost 6 figure amounts twice. Once about 6 years ago invested in something that was promising huge returns. Money disappeared. There is no such thing as fast money. The only thing that works for me is work my ass off and earn my money. All fast money sure things have failed for me. Off and Online.
btw the other 6 figure loss was ibill.

Do you spend what you make or save or reinvest it:
I spend very little of what i make. We reinvest heavily in our company and whatever is left over is invested wisely.

Are you currently looking to buy anything (content, traffic, etc..) explain:
Always looking for traffic, affiliates, content everything. More than anything I'm always interested in starting new business relationships. Just this month I started using AllAdultCash thanks to Aimee Sweet. We've been pushing it for about 10 days and it's been phenomenal. I love finding a new company to work with that fits in perfectly with what we currently have.
