Biggest mistake was getting into the webcam studio ownership end (us based models) in 1999 instead of developing traffic or paysites. Production and management costs made it very difficult to make any good money.

2nd biggest mistake was never taking you out to dinner

Biggest lesson is traffic is king. I should have got into the traffic game long ago. I know its the age old debate in this industry but without traffic you aint got shit. You can produce the best content in the world but if you dont have eye balls seeing it you cant monetize it.

Congrats on yr 12 yrs , newbie!!! ;-)))

Oh , and Its never been debated by people with money and hence traffic. ;-))

Serge told me in 96..maybe...

"Get hold of traffic , someone always pay for traffic and no headaches" - yet again he was right.

Content is one of the cheapest factors of production , always has been.

Had dinner with him on Tuesday. He was quite proud i was following in his footsteps.

and your so right about the people in the biz with money. you dont see anyone who sells or produces content at the top like you do the guys with a ton of traffic

Good to see you nick. Im sure all is well with you

I should have said "semi" retire. Like you took serge's advice ill take yours!

your right its an easy life that i can do from just about anywhere i have a BB or internet. Thats how i managed to ski 30 days last year. I can work from the chairlift!

sorry to have "draagggeedddd" you back in ;). and if you noticed i stayed out of that thread. its a train wreck. I like paul known him for years but his view on content is just nuts.
