Ex-Blackhat Thinking of Getting Back into the Game

Moved this to the lounge, as its not really a thread about making money.
 
Great, another IM>school post, not like we've had a million of these before... At least this one was not as long as the others.


Better than a 9-5
I will never understand why people hate 9-5 so much. I'm just wondering if it's really that much more fun to sit alone in your apartment all day in your underwear managing instagram bots or whatever than to get up every morning and go to a "real" workplace with colleagues to talk to. Oh well, guess I'm just not a pure bred IM'er...

More like: Spending 1 hour checking server stats because you've scaled your shit, then off to the gym, and killing time until the evening when you can go hook up with a girl/a whore/go the strip club/ chill with friends/get plastered/cinema/wander around.

Rinse and repeat with cultural adjustments as you travel the world!

9-5 has it's perks, one is you basically switch off Mon- Friday at 5pm and don't give a toss provided your wage hits your bank each month.
You go on your package holiday or whatever 4 weeks a year and get paid for it.

Flip is you're always answerable to someone else. You are there as long as they want you / need you / can afford you.

I came out of the military in 1989 and had 18 months enjoying life, then set up a bricks & mortar business. I have never worked for anyone else since coming back into civvy street, nor will I do so in future.

I don't sit in underwear, I wear whatever I want. I admit it's nice to go jump in the pool 4 or 5 times a day in summer though :)

The good life

Welcome back to the game
 
Long story short:

I was an extremely successful adult marketer. I mean average 14.3% conversion rate on CPA scaled extensively, spamming all mid-high traffic adult sites and forums.

Made shitloads of money, (never withdrew from CPA sites as I don't trust the bastards, I sold those accounts for bitcoins).

Exchanged those BTCs for cash physically (no Bitcoins ATMs near me back then).

Had a moral crisis, and also thought what I was doing was too menial, so I stopped and went back to school.

But fuck, I've been depressed ever since. I loved the manipulation, the scheming, the creative campaigns. The chatbots, the degenerates who would fill in surveys... the fucking wads of cash I had on me all the time from my marketing.

The drinking, the whoring, the strip clubs!

Maybe it's societal brainwashing. That there are "good" careers. Fuck it, I'm a blackhat and I'm entering this game again.

A commom story in IM is guys who got lucky once and could never make it happen again.

Adult has changed a lot. Not sure when you were doing it.
