    I know this might not be the most useful or by far the most constructive question, but it has been plundering my mind for a little while. I was wondering, can you actually make a living of phun.org? :)

    Edit: I'm not askin how much u earn each year from running phun, just if its possible to make a living entirely out of just the site? ;)

    He lives in a house made from thousand dollar stacks!!!! Sleeps on a bed of panda fur and eats dodo eggs for brekky!!!!!

    No, but i imagine he's doing pretty damn well. It is a business after all. Good luck to the guy, wish it was me.

    Yeah it prob could be, but I'm just curious as if its possible to make a living out of this site, though i would think it should be considering all the ppl that uses the forum every day. :)

    At least i sure hope so, with all the hours of work that is put into maintaining this place.

    Why? He's basically asking what he does for a living. Sounds like a reasonable question to me.

    The money isnt made from the forum, its from the homepage. Cayne will get cash from simply having links/adverts on the page and will possibly get extra when someone clicks on a link. That may already be included in the price of the advert. Either way....kerchingggg :)

    I know alot of guys who don't like saying how much they earn. I never got that to be honest. Its only cash, if cayne makes £100 a year or a million it doesnt make any difference to me. Nver understood why money is so private to people. Never understood why its so important either though.

    Yeah, I do the online stuff for a living. But like people already mentioned it, the forum doesn't make any money at all, it costs me like 600-700 bucks a month. And the frontpage additional 2,5k.

    The website pays for itself + I keep some additional money! ;)

    But I also do some consulting for other companies, which is good money too.

    I'm not asking how much he earns, but simply just if its possible to make a living out of the site. :)

    Didn't know that the forums alone cost that much money each month, but thanks for keeping it ;)

    Sorry if i might have asked a bit to personal question, but i can assure you that i was only being curious as of if would be possible to make a living out of a site like phun. Thanks for replying to my post.

    Keep up the good work Cayne & Mod's! :)

    You don't need to be sorry for asking a question. You can ask me how long my dick is...you'll most likely get no reply, but asking doesn't cost a thing :)
