Default Re: You Will ALL Disagree With ME Here!

You're old target ... possible but highly improbable. I'd say the ability to make your new target is very certainly possible, yes. Of course, it's completely up to you.

However, one of your problems, I think is with the financing thing. While that still isn't a hand out per se, it seems to me (and I could be wrong) that you are treating it as a hand out.

It also seems you want to get there fast, and while that's always desirable, I'm not sure if you're ready to put in the hours of hard work it takes. You may say you do, but then if you really do, you would force yourself to do it slow and steady without any outside financing.

It's a total bitch but ... parlay one dollar into 10, 10 into a hundred, a few hundred ... etc ... until you have some 4- and 5-digit money of your own to then go for something big. Meanwhile, the long road followed getting there will give you a better mindset than anything you have now.

This could be unfair but .... I'm betting you would spend 10 grand of someone's financing in a few months, and on things that could have been gotten for a third less, and if that project didn't work, that you might simply shrug it off. Look for another project and another hand out.

But if it took you a couple years and your own money, I'd bet you would consider every way conceivable to squeeze out a single dime, avoid big expenditures, milk everything for what it was worth and then beyond ... so by the time you're ready to spend, say, 10 grand of your own money, you'd make damned sure you'd get back 40 grand of value for it.

One last thing ....

Yeah, some big things could still happen in the adult industry, could, maybe, but doubtful -- but in mainstream, the vistas are wide open, virtual acres upon acres of unclaimed virgin terrority, places you can climb up to and see no one else around for hundreds of miles ... In adult, it's like trying to find a slither of space to put your beach towel at an outdoor U2 concert.
