RogerV · 11-24-2005, 06:46 PM

I love the money and girls and hate the stigma attached to porn that we are all sleazy

Mack · 11-24-2005, 06:49 PM

Love the people I've worked for and learned from. Love the challenge, love the ability to see near instant results of hard work.

Dislike things that are not in my circle of control. Dislike the very addictive nature of certain tasks. And something could be said about the hours.

bdld · 11-24-2005, 07:13 PM

hate the people, enjoy the money.

seeric · 11-24-2005, 07:17 PM

Marcus Aurelius · 11-24-2005, 07:25 PM

I love being able to pick up and go at a moments notice if I have to and not worry about having to inform some "Boss" or "Manager".

I cant really think of anything I hate about the job other than the fact that I work so much I dont have alot of time for personal projects I'd like to complete on the side.

Yes the stigma sucks but as long as people are not throwing tomatoes at me I think I can deal with it ;)

Pornwolf · 11-24-2005, 08:43 PM

I love the fact that compared to most other business everything you make here is under your control. Wanna make more, it's up to you. There's not a lot of ifs or maybes here. Traffic = cash.

tony286 · 11-24-2005, 08:48 PM

the pros :
working for myself
get to be creative for a living
got to take classes to expand my creativity
the cons:
your a mark for the right wing
with third party processors you really have no control over alot of things which is very annoying.

ChrisAnubis · 11-24-2005, 09:30 PM

Well I haven't yet reached the point where I can really brag on the pros as I'm not yet (operative word) to the point where I can quit my regular job and do this full time yet. However one of the biggest things I look forward to is the ability to do my work from whereever I may be, as long as there is a computer connection.

The worst thing (besides the extra hours I put into my sites after long hours at work) is the bitching and complaining from the wife. As I am having to do tis part time, I do tend to put as many hours in as possible to get this thing going. She understands the end result I'm after, but she isn't really into doing with a lot of scarfices as of yet. Let me get a few checks in, maybe that will change her mind a little.

Brad

fuckin a I was a headhunter thought I was king of the world and missed the whole fucking gold rush lol

BlackCrayon · 11-24-2005, 10:05 PM

sometimes i hate this biz but most of the time i love it.
pros:
freedom! its up to me to take the time to work, if i have to i can take off, if i need to pull an all nighter, i can.

basically an unlimited earning potential. once again, if i want to make the big bucks i can work my ass off and ideally do it. not get small salary increases over years

i like not having to worry about how i look or having to deal directly with people. it always seemed i never fit in where i would work, so working by myself seems to work.

not having to commute to work is a big one. i was almost always late and had to speed like a motherfucker to get there at a decent time. working from home saves my car and points on my license.

i can crank my stereo, wear nothing but my boxers (or nothing at all if i see fit) and make more money than the majority of the population.

cons:
no guarenteed income, if sales don't come, no money.

shaving, downtime, joe jobs, etc. just general affiliate/internet bullshit.

worries about bullshit laws and corporate takeover of this biz.

can get boring/lonely working by yourself from home every day for years.

i should say this is basically the only job i've ever had. sure i've had other jobs but they never lasted more than 3 months aside from the job i had in highschool. been doing this since i was 20, its the only thing i really know.

BlackCrayon · 11-24-2005, 10:22 PM

i just wanted to add that even though a lot of you hate the stigma of porn, if it weren't for that we'd be swamped with 100x more 'webmasters' who all though they could make the next big thing.

if someone doesn't like me because i make porn sites, it makes me happy. happy because it saves me the time i might of wasted on that person who is obviously some kind of self-righteous, judgemental, closed minded person.

I feel your pain bro and I really hope you do well soon. Thats some dangerous pressure to deal with in the household.

AlienQ - BANNED FOR LIFE · 11-24-2005, 11:25 PM

I hate that a majority think they are a "Player" and got lots of paper.
It's kinda silly really and far from the truth. Only a few are blazingly wealthy and only a handful are "Rich".

Thing I love about the biz is pretty simple.
I can make my own rules and it allows me to explore my limits.

I doubt Walmart could do that or any other job cept maybe being a politician.

SilentKnight · 11-24-2005, 11:38 PM

I used to love U.S. currency exchange in Canada.

Now I hate it.

reed_4 · 11-25-2005, 01:14 AM

I love hanging around with cool webmasters that i learned alot, ofcourse the money and girls i meet and i hate people who are too high minded.

quiet · 11-25-2005, 01:17 AM

loved the money. that's about it.

phonesex · 11-25-2005, 01:18 AM

Hate: Not being around people much. No guaranteed money.

Love: watching porn all day and making money.

Woman will always find something to complain about its in there nature.

Work hard to get ahead in life if she doesnt support your hard work to be successful you need to rethink it all because she wont change infact it will probably get worse. Marrage is a partnership

Redrob · 11-25-2005, 03:20 AM

Being a pornographer is like being pregnant....

there is no such thing a being just a little bit pregnant.

So, be glorious in your presentation,

The so-called "stigma" is what makes your business profitable and keeps Walmart out.

No regrets, no apologies, and I'd do it again tomorrow!

zanex · 11-25-2005, 05:20 AM

Like others said, maybe the wort part is the social stigma associated with dealing with porn but...
the pros compensate for that... I love the freedom it gives you, but you have to remember the discipline that must come with that. sometimes, freedom=lazyness/cruising arround/boredom, and that's when the money doesn't come in...
I also regret missing the golden years...I was too busy looking for free porn backthen and never noticed that link (webmasters-make money)!

Damn! How could I missed that....

jscott · 11-25-2005, 05:24 AM

love, the money, able to travel, able to meet new people, love hot girls

hate, shavers! dishonest webmasters, shaving, under 50% recurring payouts (rare but still is some out there), and also i hate programs that shave

V_RocKs · 11-25-2005, 05:34 AM

I hate the fact that there are a lot of people here who don't make shit. By that I mean literally, they make less than $1000 in profit a month. Or people who make $5000 a month acting like pimps... especially at conventions...

I also hate the fact that some people who got into money based solely on their timing act like idiots. Lots of secret society shit. I have refused business from several of you just because you act like a fucking retard. Nothing better than having someone say I don't know you here, then call you on your cell and BEG for you to do work for them. Fucking lamers... I usually double the price or tell them no, I have my dignity, you have your mess and will have to clean it on your own.

xNetworx · 11-25-2005, 08:13 AM

Love- friends I've made, the money, self employment, creative aspect

Hate - the overwhelming amount of complete idiot scumbags in the business

loverboy · 11-25-2005, 08:30 AM

freebies, keep them comin lol

RogerV · 11-25-2005, 02:33 PM

only in this biz somene with no money can make a few bucks not alot but its possible.

So many programs out there and sites that look great but have no clue how to convert.

I love trying new tools and marketing tatics till I find that sweet spot
