very nice, i can't say i'm at that point yet. still gotta put in those long days and nights sometimes.

I use to, then i got lazy.
Now i end up spending more than i'm earning.

Hopefully i find the energy to step my game up in 06.

I did up to and around 1k/day in 2002. That year marked a bad time for me. I'm still climbing up a few hundred each month, but nowhere near where I used to be.

* from 97-2002.

yeha, I was in the same deal.

made a 5k+ a month for doing absolutely nothing for a couple month, but kinda stopped.

kind of out of adult now...trying to go totally mainstream now, got some sweet project I know will make bling

I think im gonna focus finishing up my finance degree (done in spring w00t).

Although right now im broke as fuck lol, so might have to get back in the "biz" again for some fun money

I'm nowhere near that and I'm working my butt off. Shame really. :)
But I'm not complaining.

Why did you stop advertising? For years i used to see you everywhere then all of a sudden *poof* you're gone. You have awesome content so im sure if you changed things around a little bit it would sell as good as it did the first time (which is why im assuming you stopped with all your advertising) or maybe im wrong?

Anyways, best of luck.

I think you missed his point completely.

congrats quiet

I am working longer and harder on the website biz... lol

if you have a few $$$$ to play with try this get paid to surf program

http://www.12dailypro.com/?ref=120569

I have been in it for last four months... its easy and they pay like clockwork...

and to any skeptics and flamers

don't sell the farm to do this program!

there is risk like ANYTHING... it could end at any time

yes I get a refferal from the link

its working for Me and other Webmasters I know

no i understood his point, but moneys money. Im sure with the right marketing he could bring that back up to 12k a day :2 cents:

50?

:)

51

...

duh

i love inspiration stories...

curious why you didn't hire a competent protege to handle/takeover for you?

These threads start to get boring after a while, i often dont click on them, but then i think maybe this person is genuine and they will post proof, but i am always proved right.

Congrats, Quiet. It's great to see someone's hard work and smart choices pay off in the end. I'm not in that club...yet. But working on it :)

what kind of proof would you like?

so how do you spend your creative hours dave? You didn't come to greece as you said :grr I was in italy last easter and it was fantastic. Want to go back asap.

Nice to see your years/hours of hard work paid off.
I remember seeing your stuff back in 01 or 02 and emailed
about if you had an affiliate program. Never got an answer so I moved on.
Excellent to hear your doing well with the site still and with very little effort.
Kudos. :thumbsup

not me:) but I dont work too hard either

Umm.. okay.
I just assume 'marketing = work' and I also assumed that's exactly what quiet chose not to do. So either you or I missed his point. :)

I'm not quite doing 1K, but I don't really do much work. I'm gonna try and boost it way up in the next few months and still do nothing.

Quiet has posted screenshots of his IBILL stats before...

OMG. DIE! :mad:

Such a scam.

I see the effort you put into the seo on every gallery and your sites is paying off still. I always admired that about your sites. I'm sure the engines is where all the new joins are coming from.

With all the outsourcing available I'm surprised you don't have at least a few thousand dollars worth of employees cranking out stuff still. You have enough content to never have to worry about dealing with that end of things.

Show me the money!

So, know that you're retired how about sharing some tips with the rest of us?

Dude ... you obviously don't know on what field you are getting on there. Quiet was ALL over this bitch for years and years... he was as big alone as lots of medium sized aff programs with affiliates... 1k a day in rebill sounds plausible

Oh and quiet, you don't update the site anymore ???

can you brag some more please? i want to see at least 4 more threads of things you want to impress the stellar GFY pundits with...

Quiet, lets see a screen shot for the hell of it. :)

VOIP reselling yanks down about that ;)

Quiet if i understand what your main paysite is, you still get paid from ibill?

oops i should have read the whole thread you already answered that question

Congrats to Quiet! We still miss you over here at GTS, you were one of our favorite buyers :)

Glad you're still doing well (like I ever doubted you would be LOL)! It's awesome to see a good guy get out of the biz on his own terms and live the life he wanted to. :)

All the best!
DH

thats awesome good motivation for us all!

Shit I bet it hit your pockets hard DH!! But for every buyer I bet you guys got 5 more wanting to buy!

Awesome! I have some sites i do absolutely nothing too that spin off money and it is the best.

Did you ever explore selling the site? ARS or Silvercash might have been a nice fit.

Why not set up some sort of manager on it? Just do not trust anyone enough?

Very cool though as retiring from this is so hard. I hate the stigma attached but the cash is insane so what can you do.

:thumbsup

yeah :) :pimp

:glugglug

Whats the URL of the site in question?
