What's the point of opening your own pay site?

If you don't have the $750 for VISA, how the hell you gonna pay for the content, hosting, legal, etc.....

And since the majority of my members pay with VISA, it's a must - not an option.

We spend a few grand every month on "talent", a decent chunk on production costs (camera, editing, etc..) a few hundred on hosting, and that leaves precious little (nothing) for me.

Starting your own paysite is no cheap undertaking - I'm still on the investing phase of a 5-year business plan but things are on track and we expect to start seeing a return in the next few month. My total investment is well into the five-figures (closer to six) so it may take a while for me to see a full return on the investment but I'm in this for the long run not the weekly paycheck.
