I hope it NEVER comes to that though. Well, not until I'm 45 or so :okthumb:

have you ever been shot at or you only know about those things from internet movie clips?

Back to the original question.....

Adult...who cares?

Someone will always need traffic :-))))

I know a few people will be in New Orleans for New Years and guess what you can see my new venture, it's a band. The name of the band is Billy and the boners, so far in the band I have Mike, Tim, Edd and Luke but I am always looking for a few good boners !

Actually, I think I would just follow my life long calling:


Become a BOFH

what is BOFH?

Bastard Operator from Hell. Its a geek thing.

But people who know me, know it would be a very natural position for me.

I'm in payment processing, people can't quit buying everything all at once ;)

I'm a professional mainstream photographer as well as doing adult-related stuff, so I think I'd just shift my focus back to mainstream stuff and push it. The money is there I just prefer the adult stuff.... It's a much less competative environment, amazingly enough.


Either that or start doing mainstream graphic design..

if the porn industry disappeared in jan i'd be fine. i really havent made a living out of this so i've had to keep jobs while putting myself through school. i'd finish up my degree's then go off to grad school. the only thing that would really kick me in the ass would be trying to finance ideas for patents and a mainstream projects. im still young though(22) so it wouldn't be a total set back :gbounce:

Also known as:

"Break out another thousand"

haha :) My husband wears that t-shirt all the time. It's a very true saying!

I already answered this on the amateur side...


I'm going into the repo business.

Should be good money in taking back all of the toys!

billy can I play the bongos :)

This thought has been on my mind since I went on a party boat in Clearwater last year.

Did some quick math and realized the deck hand on the boat was pulling down six figures a year in CASH tips.

Hoping to do this in about 10 years, if the porn biz is still going strong or not

Would be VERY happy to spend 8 hours a day on a fishing boat, better yet, be able to say "I am working :D

What KK said about payment processing.

I think this is a huge market that is always going to be there.

ACH, credit cards, stored value cards, wires, WITH value add... there is a demand for all of it.

For our core focus (ACH), check conversion, truncation, imaging, RCK, ARC and direct deposit payroll.

Check 21, which goes into effect in Sept 04, is going to revolutionize the way banks process paper checks.

i think there are many people in the adult biz that would do fine no matter what happened. i believe success is the result of character, personality, determination and willingness to identify and accept appropriate risks as well as accept failure and quickly move on to the next venture with the same zeal and enthusiasm as the first. those traits will exist in some individuals with or without porn and they will still be successful at anything they do.

there are also many more in this business that would be flipping burgers by the end of the week if this biz stopped.

I'd go work for Shok . . . and pull all of those files full of less profitable, but none the less profitable, ideas out and start plugging away . . . that is why they call me Plugger after all . . . in the face of adversity I just keep plugging away . . . and you all thought it was an ANAL thing :)

Porn will never go away.

Only those who refuse to adapt will.

Back to mainstream while I figured out how to sell porn again...

lets see
keep milking my real estate
playing the stockmarket
and of course milking the mainstream internet

I would start milking Slavdogg

I could always babysit for shok.

Bodyguard for Brad.

I'd return to either brokering futures and options, or doing mortgage loans; I'd also begin to write my book, tentatively titled "From Altar Boy to Porn Star"-----I just need a "retirment" point as a boundary for the stuff that will go into the book; otherwise, I'll have to include a post-death add-on where I'll name names of some scumbags!

Though I want to continue performing, retirement would give me the time to start writing!!!

I woundn't do a damn thing. Fuck work, fuck the machine and the tacit agreement with the power structure. Count my happy ass on some beach in South America or on some island: Indonesia- Bali, Java, and Sumatra Mentawais, Nias, Hinakos. I'd fish, sleep and do the real kind of surfing. Any monkey can push a button on a keyboard, not every monkey can drop into a 20+ ft. wave.

Kill the deus ex machina...stranger than fiction thing is that this discription is exactly what I'm going to do, burningbush pornarmageddon or not; 5 years and flame on, I'm gone.

After a few years sebatical, I'll probably start some sort of mainstream/ Adult Webmaster Tours Co. Company retreats, team building exercises, pretty three panel color brochure, coconuts with the tops lopped off to recieve the pineapple juice, rum and ice, bamboo umbrellas..."Be somebody"

I'd strap on the tools and go build some decks or something...
