>>1277752

ten years ago you could definitely strike it big if you knew how to make websites.

I would fuck her so hard, she'd be spilling my potent seed for days.

>>1277757
i had like 20 of them eventually. i started out with an 'E/N' site - entertainment and news or, 'everything and nothing', i.e random, depending who you ask. just links to stupid shit online, mixed in with porn. think orsm.net
eventually built a shitload of these

and seemingly every day or two i'd get another 4-figure payment. i spent most of it on shit like partying, but did buy a house. not posting the exact sites, sorry.

The difference is, the girls in the picture are attractive. Your "woman" is either pig-dog ugly, a whale or former man.

what did you first buy when you were suddenly rich?

>>1277814
Jelly.

>>1277752
you should google "bigger pockets" you did it wrong, you should have taken the equity from the houses by refinancing and then purchased more rental properties to build your portfolio

>>1277912

some peoples lives don't revolve around making money to make more money to make more money.

I currently own a tech review and webshop site. I make about 3k a month out of it doing what I enjoy. So I'm ok. But I think I could be doing better.

What marketing strategies do you guys use online?

Currently have two app ideas one of which will be completed in 3-4 weeks. I'm studying electrical/computer engineering but I would hate the idea of working in computer engineering. Currently looking for some more electronic-based side projects.

Awesome story. Congrats.

How has it changed your outlook on life?

Do you notice yourself having a spring in your step or any other qualitative improvement?

>wanting to retire

A female kudu on the plains of Africa with her younglings. There as been a terrible drought lately, making food hard to find. The kudu must get more Life Points (LP) in order to keep her kids alive. How can she get more LP? She has to be more productive (making LP at a higher rate). That is the only ecologically stable way. And she can only be more productive if the plants around her are more productive. The plants have to find more LP to pay the kudu. The plants make their LP off of fungi & decomposer's LP. And the decomposer can only be more productive if the kudus are more productive.

Each person must be as productive as they can, or else someone else won't be as productive, and everybody's Objective Standard of Living will drop. Our goal as humans is to make the most LP for everyone, learn more new knowledge, and progress as a brotherly society so that we can leave Earth before a cataclysmic event. We need to be working hard so we can leave the solar system when the sun burns out. We need to study physics so that we can travel to other universes before this one looses all it's free energy and is nothing but chaos. Not to mention all the problems we are facing right now, like the 1 billion men women and children that are starving because they don't have enough LP.

You don't want to work for an employer? Fine, then start your own business. You're making a passive income already? Great! BUT: what do you do next? How can you use your time most effectively to make as much LP as possible to help humanity? What do you live for in life, if it's not helping your fellow man as much as possible? Don't retire. Do something you don't want to retire from.

>>1278395

I just want a passive income so I can DO the things I want and help people. I don't have the time to create shit when I am working and sleeping all the time.

I have a million things I would love to do but can only do one here and there over a year. It sucks

>>1278490
Read the Millionaire Fastlane.

Where tf do you learn programming and how build apps? Or has that ship sailed? I want a job I can telecommute with. Or work from anywhere in the world.

>>1278593

What are you on about you fucking mong

>>1277912
that only works while the property values keep going up and once they drop you're fucked and all your mortgages are underwater.

>>1278395
hows it like being 14

we dont owe the world anything and vice versa, same with society, we do what we want if that includes investing in some research then gud if its just passing your days at home watching the blue sky then gud, if you like "working" and like the sense of productivity you may get from it then gud, if they dont give a shit about humanity or just want to party and do drugs then gud. Retiring doesnt mean stopping to be beneficial to mankind, you become more beneficial as youre nolonger doing some useless desk job that is only there so people would have a job and an ability to live.

Children in africa will starve even if we send em more food, it will get even worse since they spend less time dying and more time breeding, and it will have a greater toll on the rest of the civilized world, and in the end when we nolonger can support them alot more will die.

personally i just want to waste my time away, no point in worrying about humanity or earth as it will all pass, id rather spend my time being comfy and just live cause i do, if it becomes dull il do something else maybe cut down a tree or mine my backyard, learn a new instrument, get into a certain research field whatever passes the time to my liking.

so much b8ing itt
>oh, i was drinking&doing drugs/dropped out of highschool
>a magical fairy appeared and whispered in my ear: "stop doing it, just make porn sites&mobile games! :^)"
>lo and behold i'm a millionaire

If that was so effing easy. Literally millions of people around the world were making porn sites and indie games even 5-10 years ago (now it's x10 more people).
Only maybe a handful of them became successful, because there's can be only so much "viral games" and "top porn sites with a lot of viewers". What are the chances that EXACTLY these few successful people are sitting itt? Why the fuck would real millionaires visit /biz?!

>>1278781
Build it and they will come.

>>1278781
this. fuck you liars.

>>1277837

>It's interesting that i've kind of lost all of my NEET desires since the pressure of having to earn a living disappeared. It was like it was just endless procrastination due to fear and anxiety.

Can you please expand on this statement? Please be as precise as possible. Seems vaguely familiar...

>>1277837

Was this in iOS or Android? How viral did it go exactly? How was it monetized? Do you only do games now? Were you acquired or something?

>28 here
>50 apps in portfolio
>4m+ downloads

>>1277768
>actually this was in like 1999, when it was a true goldmine.

Ah ok, so this is akin to hitting the lottery more or less. I literally knew 12 year olds with sites making around $6k around this time into early 2000's.

>>1279477
I make a living with it and have had offers to acquire a few apps but no where near your level of success. Hoping to build up my main performers bigger and sell/get acquired at some point. How long ago did it go viral? Was in the beginning of the App Store?

>>1279477
Also are the apps still earning $ or did it dry up quick? I really need to start grinding more man god damn.

>>1279477
And also congrats man im stoked you made it

>>1277814
How long did it take you to get from learning to code to making that app?

>>1277752
youre literally the definition of autism.

>>1277837
learning to cook as a millionaire is probably the most embarassing shit ive ever read didnt even have to see it irl

>>1280907
Better than working, faggot

>>1280907
Lol keep hating dick head.

>>1280897
If you had to offer someone advice on how to "get lucky" with making a viral app, what advice would you give?

>>1280972
>how to "get lucky"
more about motivation and skill than it is luck. if developing is your hobby and you're not just doing it for the money, you'll eventually create something beautiful.
