Dudes! There's no reason to get all pissed at each other over this thread. Who cares who lives in Ohio, LA or where ever the fuck. The point about picking up the thread is that I thought it was pretty funny that anyone would claim that it was over $100K to start up.

When I priced out starting up an adult operation, I budgeted in for top shelf talent. Ohio has an advantage over LA. Sure, all the hot chicks eventually come to LA but they have to start out somewhere. The guys that can smoke 'em out elsewhere get fresh talent before they head out and have some agent blow smoke up their ass, so they expect a $1000+ per scene. I mean didn't busty Brandy Talore come from Ohio??? She's managed to make the rounds pretty well.

Besides, if some dude out in the sticks can partner up with his buddies and/or find some newbie chick that thinks getting gangbanged and bukkake'd regularly for $500 is kewl, the cost of operation drops drastically.

Can't we just all get along?
