Kick ass read !!! Kudos to Scott and LAMike

daveylapoo · 03-04-2005, 11:37 AM

Awesome interview, and congrats on all your success.

I noticed in the backyard pics there was some kids toys and the like. Do you have kids of your own, and if so, what are your thoughts on being in the adult business and being a parent/father.

Being a single father, I love the freedom that this business permits, and the time it allows me to spend with my child.

I've been focusing a large amount of time on mainstream projects as of late in an attempt to 'phase out' my adult ventures by the time my son starts asking more advanced questions as to what his daddy does.

The fact reamains though, the bread and butter is adult, and there is certainly much more money to be made if I spent more time with it.

With your large level of success in adult, have you ever felt comprimised by these issues, and if so, how have you dealt with them?

Peaches · 03-04-2005, 11:42 AM

Wow, that's a cool story about Richard

Great interview all around and INCREDIBLE pictures. I talked to my resident handyman Wig/Dan with WTS/ACHdebit yesterday and told him I wanted a waterslide ;)

Hehe, no kidding. Once he told me how much it would cost and I realized it was more than what my whole house and 2 acres of property is worth, I rethought it and told him HE needed to get one and I'd have unlimited access

LA Mike · 03-04-2005, 11:52 AM

27. Who do you look up to in online adult, in life? who do you look down on?

I know you want to get some names but I would be here forever and I really feel that I would miss a few names that I would feel bad about later. So my answer is anyone that has made money in this buisiness and made something from all of this I look up to. I think I can learn something from everyone.

I look down on the Acacia's of the world who are doing IMHO some sort of legal extortion of people that have become successfull. I look down on those who rip off others as happened to so many of us online so many times. And I look down to those that are jealous of others. Jealousy is ugly. And most of all I look down to those involved in any way in child porn.

LA Mike · 03-04-2005, 11:59 AM

28. What pisses you off?

People who talk behind my back. It's fine to talk behind ones back until it's lies. I hate those that are jealous. Those that put down others to make themselves look better.

I hate when my Dolphins, Ducks, Angels, or Lakers lose.

I hate when slow ass drivers doing 40 in the fast lane.

I hate the rain for more then 1 day at a time.

LA Mike · 03-04-2005, 12:09 PM

29. Have you ever yodeled?

No, and where did that question come from? lol

LA Mike · 03-04-2005, 12:11 PM

30. What's digitalbucks?

It was my first every affiliate program around 96 or 97'

I was a sliding scale program that payed more based on your signup ratio. And it was strictly pay per click. We closed it down eventually when we built Silvercash.

Bangwang (Richard) was also hosted there. After I started getting my circle jerk sites going in just a month maybe I started pushing some good traffic. So much that I took down my providers server. They called me and told me they had to kick me off. I was so bummed because I had just built up a nice circle of traffic and was making some money. They told me that there was another guy in town that had just done the same thing to them a few weeks earlier. I was shocked to know there was another guy doing the circle jerk game in town. I mean there was only maybe 100 in the world at the time. So I told them to give that guy my number. So one day this guy Bangwang calls me up. We start talking and comparing and I found out he had been at this at least a few months before me and knew alot more then I did. He helped me get setup on dedicated server so I could run my traffic again. I then told him how I had this content and he was "NO WAY, you can't do that" so he invited me to his house and I took a drive over there one day. I pulled up to his house and almost didnt go in. I was a little freaked out by some guy that just met me on the phone and invited me over.. lol So I go knock on the door and this 3 year old kid answers and tells me to come in.. lol I was ok walked in and waited for Richard. Then finally comes out this long hair bearded man. I was like oh shit. Look at this weirdo.. haha (richard has since cut his hair) lol

Anyways Bangwang had this bench setup with multiple computers on it and we smoked cigs and drank pepsis all day and he helped me get setup on some real content. And the only thing I remember that you could buy back then was ZMaster which I think Lee Noga was selling. He also hooked up on FTP and how to use it and some search and replace scrips and some other easy stuff like that. He really did a lot to help me get going and to point me in the right direction. He had some really big free sites of his own and was also a part of Pornholio.

Bangwang taught me a lot and told me that the more people I knew the better and he introduced me to some really key people in the biz including Rick from Ynot and Lars. Although Rick would never let me become a member because all my sites had popups

So when the time came that I felt I really needed more help at Silvercash and I needed someone that knew everything I knew to help take some work load off of me I thought of Bangwang. I learned a lot from him and I totally trusted him. Shit I was getting triffic from ynots link list and you werent suppose to have an exit console. But I did and Richard saw it and he went into YNOT and had me removed. I was shocked because he was my bud but he turned me in. LoL..I learned a good lesson and I also learned he was very hosest. So I ended bringing him in to Silvercash and he knows everything I know if not more and has been a HUGE help.

Props to my man and V.P. Bangwang!!!

LA Mike · 03-04-2005, 12:24 PM

31. What was the most tragic thing that ever happened to you?

Loss of my best friend Jesse. I lived next door to my buddy from the time I was 5 until he was killed in a car accident when I was 18. It was like losing a brother. He was driving down the street and a bus pulled out in front of him in his little MG. He had two other guys in the car that were ok. But he hit his head. I gave my little boy "Jesse" as his middle name

Just Rob · 03-04-2005, 12:34 PM

Rich is the MAN!

LA Mike · 03-04-2005, 12:35 PM

32. What was the best thing that ever happened to you?

My little boy Jayden. By far my best accomplishment!

JUSTB · 03-04-2005, 12:36 PM

OMG he's such a cutie! He looks so much like you!

Butrflied · 03-04-2005, 12:39 PM

Hahaahh Everyone bought those sets ! My first content as well, I still have them laying around somewhere.

Bangwang taught me a lot and told me that the more people I knew the better and he introduced me to some really key people in the biz including Rick from Ynot and Lars. Although Rick would never let me become a member because all my sites had popups

Rick was super picky about quality, and we always did battle over traffic vs quality. I was a circle jerker like you and bangers

I wish I had listened to rick a bit mroe hahhhaha.

Fuck Yeah Bangwang is one of the best guys in the biz. He and his wife are awesome to just chill with and have a nice dinner !

daveylapoo Confirmed User Join Date: Dec 2003 Posts: 423	Awesome interview, and congrats on all your success. I noticed in the backyard pics there was some kids toys and the like. Do you have kids of your own, and if so, what are your thoughts on being in the adult business and being a parent/father. Being a single father, I love the freedom that this business permits, and the time it allows me to spend with my child. I've been focusing a large amount of time on mainstream projects as of late in an attempt to 'phase out' my adult ventures by the time my son starts asking more advanced questions as to what his daddy does. The fact reamains though, the bread and butter is adult, and there is certainly much more money to be made if I spent more time with it. With your large level of success in adult, have you ever felt comprimised by these issues, and if so, how have you dealt with them?

Anyways Bangwang had this bench setup with multiple computers on it and we smoked cigs and drank pepsis all day and he helped me get setup on some real content. And the only thing I remember that you could buy back then was ZMaster which I think Lee Noga was selling. Hahaahh Everyone bought those sets ! My first content as well, I still have them laying around somewhere. Bangwang taught me a lot and told me that the more people I knew the better and he introduced me to some really key people in the biz including Rick from Ynot and Lars. Although Rick would never let me become a member because all my sites had popups Rick was super picky about quality, and we always did battle over traffic vs quality. I was a circle jerker like you and bangers I wish I had listened to rick a bit mroe hahhhaha. So when the time came that I felt I really needed more help at Silvercash and I needed someone that knew everything I knew to help take some work load off of me I thought of Bangwang. I learned a lot from him and I totally trusted him. Shit I was getting triffic from ynots link list and you werent suppose to have an exit console. But I did and Richard saw it and he went into YNOT and had me removed. I was shocked because he was my bud but he turned me in. LoL..I learned a good lesson and I also learned he was very hosest. So I ended bringing him in to Silvercash and he knows everything I know if not more and has been a HUGE help. Props to my man and V.P. Bangwang!!! Fuck Yeah Bangwang is one of the best guys in the biz. He and his wife are awesome to just chill with and have a nice dinner !
