jim,
that is by far the worst case of getting screwed over I've ever heard. I had a friend who owned a comic book store with a partner. For 3 years they worked and were saving money to get a better location. One day when they were about 3 months from moving ( they had saved the money they needed ) he got a call from a delivery driver telling him the store was closed( his parter was scheduled to open that day ) so he went down and opened up. He figured his partner was sick or something bad had happened like he got in a car wreck. He couldn't find his partner for 3 days then he realized that all the money in the company account was gone. His partner had withdrew every cent they had saved over 3 years for the new store and disappeared. He ended up going out of buisness about 2 months later. It was bad, but not like your's Ultracash was the first sponser I ever used and got any kind of decent size checks from I always had wondered what happened to them.
As for can you make a living. Sure if you are willing to work. a year ago I lost control of 5 domains that I own ( it's a long story that is 20% my fault this happened and 80% nestol's fault ) 3 of those domains had little or nothing on them the other 2 made up a huge portion of my sites. When I lost them I lost about 80% of my income. In the last year I've been working hard and am about 70% back to where I was. So you can do pretty decent if you work and are willing to keep learning
