Most Successful in Adult?

Who does everyone think are the most successful/wealthiest people in the adult industry?

Just curious!

In business, success is defined by profits and they aren't even the top single person operation as there's spammers that were making $1,000,000+ a day back in old school times...

It's very tempting to reveal my identity.

But I am not the bragging type.

Keep this thread going ! Can't wait to show up.

Definitely agree with Flynt, Hirsch, Hefner, and I believe you are referring to Steve Orenstein from Wicked?

I actually misread the thread title initially when posting, and definatly wasnt thinking of spammers, more of site owners.

Larry Flynt (bless him) and Hef... They did good, but not in the online world. Playboy hasn't made a profit in years.

Interesting comment.... I know them personally and they live well - nice peeps really, very down to earth - but I think others have done better.
