"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

Is there any money to be made in starting a forum?

For example, a vBulletin forum like SS.
Consider a forum like SS with 100,000 members, one with 50,000, and one with significantly less.

Any thoughts?
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

Figure if you set up a forum, you'd get about one percent of your daily traffic clicking on those ads. One out of a hundred.

And figure that each click would get you fifty cents.

That means, in order to make $150 a day, you'd need 300 clicks.

Which means you'd need 30,000 daily visitors.

So yes, it's possible. Just set up a forum, and figure out a way to get 30,000 folks to come and visit every day.

That's just shy of 11 million per year.

No problem.

6-7 years ago, without even trying, I got 5000 unique visits a day, just a chat forum about guns and survivalism. I didn't even go around to other forums boosting it, after the initial go around of 30 or so forums. there's 300 such forums today. Just google for those topics if you don't believe me. :) the end of the world Mayan calender 2012 thing, I guess.

Obviously. But i think it's more like tayouu said, you need a lot of traffic to even be able to make some pocket change. Because first you have to recover the website hosting costs, and the initial purchase of vbulletin
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Negative thoughts down the drain just relax, let t
Ultimately, I believe yes and only yes if your forum exists to fill a need

Your forum will probably only get huge if it exists to solve a problem

Also consider its about $200 to maintain it monthly....I hope I'm not pulling numbers out of thin air, but yeah...

So yeah go for it after doing some good research!! I hope you don't start a forum about knitting or something though
