Have you ever noticed how seemingly meaningless and simple questions can sometime have the most convoluted and coplex answers?
I asked the question in the thread title to a webmaster on AIM earlier and it took the guy a god 15 minutes to come up with an honest answer.
With that sai, i figured i would throw the question out to our community members on GWW.
So.. Why are you in business?

Lee
I'm primarily in the business to make money! (as I think most of us are) However the fringe benefits of a great community to work with and the satisfaction of knowing that I have been creative in an area where others just won't go is great.
I believe that you should do something you love for a job, that way it isn't work it is having fun everyday! I am lucky to say that both in creating sites and my full-time job I am blessed in that respect.
Cheers,
Allan
P.S. 1.5min half of it is already in my business plan!
To make money originally, but now I do it just so I can hang out here and torment you :groovy:

lee - are you asking why we are in business, or why we are in THIS business?
Personally, I got into this business so that I could make enough money to live comfortably and so that I could have a business that travels with me to wherever I go. My partner & I have lived in quite a few places, in the last 5 years alone we have lived in Ottawa (Canada), Wellington (New Zealand), Melbourne (Australia) and Brisbane (Australia) in 7 different houses...and we are starting to get the itch to move again ;)

Where else in the world can you expand so fast with so little(legally)? That's why the net is so special.
The first one but now that you mention it the second one too :)Quote:

i'm in it for the porn
mmmmm freee poorn
I started out as making money on my own terms - No Wall-Street-Stepford-wife-everyone-is-dressed-the-same-carrying-Coach-briefcases clones. Then it grew from there.
It's still about the business of making money but there are tons of perks from porn to people.
