My advice is that you should not listen to those people.
So making an extremely profitable decision over a decade sooner than some others has nothing to do with intelligence? That's an interesting position.

Honestly, I doubt that has anything to do with the latest crop of newbies. I believe it's an age thing. People who are just now getting into the business were likely still in elementary school when some of us began slinging porn. There's something inherently wrong with that generation of people. They're generally hungry for knowledge but utterly helpless when it comes to obtaining that knowledge. They lack independence and drive hence all of the pants-on-head retarded newbie questions GFY sees every few days (like this one).
