You are correct in some of those things while others were said to you out of anger, spite or malice.
Thommy (of all people) nailed it. You should have opened a paysite/affiliate program AND done what I suggested: tell a good story. Maybe Paul the ex-Pat photographer who scours the world for hot young repressed girls yearning to express their forbidden sexuality. Of COURSE the 'content' is 'crap' - it's meant to be. It comes from deep inside formerly-Communist USSR countries where it's still 1966.
Again: you had the content but you didn't have the vision. So enjoy your retirement.

But according to so many I'm not clever enough to put up a site selling ad space, or an affiliate site.
Putting up a site is not a guaranty of making money, so that's a silly idea.
I was selling to magazines who paid a lot more than online, so didn't care how good or bad my content was. Even in the content stores it was worth more than what exclusive custom Stefan was getting.
Start using logic.
