Second mistake was selling my site that was making $150/day for $2,000 upfront in it's first two weeks alive, because I seen the immediate cash and ignored the fact that if it just sustained that much daily, I'd bank $3,000/mo let alone if it grew.

$150/day on 35,000 uniques was good money.


All this happened when I was young and naive. 2004-2005ish.
Yup...that's what most people do. The quick money. It makes an easy victim.
The "ex gf" site i had btw had none of those words in the title. Once i started promoting it on The Hun and World Sex etc people started to copy it real fast. Also because i had a bunch of affiliates who found out that it converted like crazy.
