Damn here comes fly with a post that makes a ton of sense again
There are alot of programs that don't do business publicly and seem to do well.
Before you think that running a big program is all fun games and profit -- think about a couple of things here --
Cheaters -- the larger the program the more cheaters it attracts - so you either pay people to catch them or you get your ass burnt six ways from Sunday by paying on phony sales.
Cost to run a business -- once you get big like that you don't run it out of the spare bedroom, you have to have an office, employees, the whole works.
Reputation -- always on the line, no matter what -- you can pay on time for years and one little blip comes across the screen and everyone's up in arms and your competition is making the most of it. But once you've built a beast you have to keep it fed so there is no slacking up for anything.
Last thing and I'll quit harping on the bad -- as you grow the margins get slimmer because you've got all this overhead, so every dime counts, more than you would think.
At the end of the day more money is still more money tho
