This guy makes over 300k a year without more than an hours of work a day and works on his other business ideas in all his free time. Great example of fast lane success I would say.

He makes his living selling compromising images of other people's daughters to freaks. Totally legal, and obviously there is a huge demand for it.

I don't consider coke dealers to be "Fast Lane" nor do I consider bank robbers to be fast lane. For the same reason, people who prostitute 18 year old girls to 60 year old faceless anonymous men are not heroes nor are they role models.

Don't get me wrong. I am no choir boy nor am I a role model. I just respect the hell out of people who make their living without resorting to the lowest common denominator in society.

It's a free country. Do what ever you want. I think he should have a right to do it. I simply am not going to cheerlead someone's success for selling porn.

Net profit margins on clips are between 20% and 30%. Tribute margins between 10% and 20%.
So by my math you're making around $75k/yr. if you're grossing 300k--surely a comfortable life, but by no means the lap (or crotch, in this case) of luxury.
I have run adult advertising personally, with quite good results. I'm not one to judge one's moral compass by any means, so more power to the guy. Not exactly fastlane however.

He is making good money but at the cost of others. It's like selling drugs.

Do you know how many people are destroying their lives by watching porn? Porn changes your brain. It should be illegal.

That is quite the bold statement. I guess we should make alcohol, television, and anything pleasurable illegal as well?

Porn changes your brain. It causes social anxiety, deppresion, shyness, not able to look people in the eyes. it also causes erectile disfunction, premature ejaculation, decresing of potency and libido and loosing manhood in general. There can be more. It depends. I used to be a porn addict myself, but luckily I found about it early in life.

Porn FAQs | Your Brain On Porn

To older fastlaners who have kids: Whatever happens, don't let your sons watch porn. You are welcome.

Question things, before you take them as facts.

That's my advice to you.

I hope, you don't get upset.

Because, that is not my intention.

"Critcial thinking" is a wonderful thing, in my opnion.

On a side note.
He made around $75k a year, in net profit.
The $300k, was gross.

But, yes. Internet porn is very fastlane, if done right.

I guess you and I have a different concept of what "Fast Lane" is...

I don't traffic in people.

So, are you saying that Internet porn isn't fastlane, because, it's "human trafficing"? :confused:

It certainly can be fastlane. But if it's "morally right", is another question, don't you agree with that?

You can buy millions of visitors with certain adult traffic brokers.

I actually think, Internet porn is one of the easiest ways to become a millionaire or multi millionaire, today.

But I agree, it's not for everyone.

I also agree that, 18 years old is too young of an age to get started in porn.

I think the age, should be restricted to be, at least 21 years old.

What value that son of a bitch has brought to people? If he's a fastlaner, this means most scammers are fastlaners too.
It's frightening how open minded some of you people are on the "porn" thing. And other peoples choices and values. Do you guys have any knowledge of how the porn industry works?

For you people, that detest porn: Do you just follows, what's been "taught" to you since childhood? Or is it more of an "inner compass", which tells you that "porn is wrong"? :confused:

Pleasure would equate to value, IMO. He is filling a need.

Not saying, that "Porn FAQs" site is christian propaganda. But it's a lot of "B*" for sure.

But that's just my opinion and how I see things.
I'm not gonna read the bible to someone. I'm not a fan of this stuff. I'm not a F*cking christian sheep. I just know a F*cker who runs a porn site and he's just a cheap/poor bozo. Just my opinion on this topic.

I thought this was The Fastlane Forum, not the Moral Police Forum. If you are not comfortable with certain legal businesses don't deal with them.

Can't we just stick to whether this is Fastlane/Slowlane?

Porn FAQs | Your Brain On Porn

To older fastlaners who have kids: Whatever happens, don't let your sons watch porn. You are welcome.

Seems like about half of the people are addict. But no one wants to admit it. And there is stuff for all tastes. Bestiality, violent, anything you could imagine, even child pornography. I think that some of the people who own these websites are pretty f*cked up. But money rules the world ans always will. We grew with a subconscious belief that sex is kind of "bad", masturbation too, and you have to hide to do it. But there is no problem doing it in the front of the camera and getting paid. Interesting. Here are some disturbing facts:

Porn Stats | Covenant Eyes | The Leaders in Accountability Software

Internet Pornography Statistics - TopTenREVIEWS

Porn Facts and Statistics | Push of Hope

4,2 millions of websites are pornographic. That is a lot of porn owners. Not sure the stat is up to date. I'm sure it's more actually. And I can verify it changes you brain, in a very bad way. I've read some books about neuroplasticity and neurosciences written by scientists. One of them is "The brain that changes itself". Good read.

Well. I just edited out some of the stuff in the post, you quoted me from. Or, most of the stuff.

But, I hear your opnion. And I agree with you that some porn webmasters and people in porn, lack morals.

And some are very, greedy and selfish.

But far from everyone, is like this.

The stuff's just not my style, personally.
But I don't find anything morally wrong with it.

Women show off their bodies all the time. Get out of traffic situations. Get free drinks. Get guys to help them move.
I see it all the time.

In this case, there are guys that want to see naked chicks, and then there are chicks willing to get naked.
It's not illegal, it fills a need. People get addicted to it, yes, but people get addicted to sleeping pills as well.

Drug dealing is illegal so it's not a good comparison.
Scamming/Fraud is illegal AND there's no value (even perceived value) so it's not a good comparison.

Is it disgusting? Depressing? Depends on who you are.
Can it be fastlane?
As fastlane as any other membership site.

It's personally something I think is a waste of money, I don't like to hear about it or think about it
but I know that some people can't get enough and I don't really care.

Something else I think is a waste of money, that I don't like to think or hear about?
Golf.
Nuff said.

There's too much of it for free for it to be worth doing.

Sounds like a NEED for a new revenue model?


On the moral side of it, filming two consenting adults engaged in willing sexual relations... why not? The only thing I find ironic about it, is that it's only legal here in the US if you're going to film it and charge people to watch haha.

What I find immoral is starting a bullshit supplement company based on pseudoscience for weight loss and preying on people's insecurities and downfalls. Two people ****ing? Get out haha.

Here's the cool thing about pornography: It's been around for THOUSANDS of years.

The romans used to carve erect penises out of rocks and the Greeks used to have public orgies.

I think the Japanese were the first to effectively distribute pornographic manuscripts.

New technology has allowed it to be disseminated and communicated and sold more effectively and efficiently. The VCR, the camera, the telephone, the internet, High Definition ETC.

If two consenting adults want to get together and engage in sadistic sexual activities then thats their business. It doesn't hurt anybody. I prefer having people have sex then to have people killing and hurting each other.

Pornography is fair game. Its legal. Theres demand. And the actors love their jobs, yes even the women.

We don't sell porn, but our merchant account provider has a lot of clients who do. The last time I met the owner of the company that provides our merch account, he told me that his clients are changing to a peep show type of model where customers buy slots of time rather than monthly access. It cuts down on videos being stolen and then offered up for free elsewhere.

He also said chargebacks are a nightmare. Lots of buyers remorse and guys claiming their cc was stolen when their wife finds out. Since intangible goods are being sold without a physical signature, the merchants lose virtually all chargeback disputes.

Visa and Mastercard et al make the rules. They side with their customers, not merchants. A credit card company that sided with merchants would be great for merchants, but I am guessing that they would have a hard time acquiring customers.

Hugh Hefner should come into this forum and do an AMA related with his fastlane success.

I can simply extend an invitation. :D

Traffic? Really? You are really pushing it. What's the difference between swimsuit modelsand porn? soft image or hard core, it's sex selling. Please stop it. We get it, you are anti porn. Good for you.

Porn is sweet, I watch is quite often and find nothing wrong with it. Let's be grown ups about sexuality and not treat it like a unicorn. I should also mention that online pornography has lowered rape statistics through-out the world. ;)
