I think the most important thing to take from this thread is what m3ownz said. "Anything based on exploits eventually dies." If what you are doing isn't creating any genuine value, then it is eventually going to lose effectiveness, as people realize where they are losing money. Now some would say this is the thrill of being a blackhatter, the constant need to innovate and stay one step ahead... if that thrills you, go ahead, this is BHW after all!
My guess is that most of you are here because you want to have a reliable stream of income so that you can quit your job, be your own boss, make your own hours etc. etc. If that is the case, then i would recommend learning something of value that will always be of value! The best one I can think of: marketing. Get other people to buy and you will never go hungry! Sugarman's book "Triggers" is, imho, one of the best books out there on the subject. Perhaps the best, but idk, because I haven't read them all!
Good luck, let me know if this helps!
