I had 3 paysites in partnership with 2 friends back in the day when even non-exclusive content was expensive, my bills to keep them going were roughly 3K a month and I ran them for about 6 months.
Signups were plentiful back then but I got tired of the workload and I couldn't see any of them getting to the point where I'd get rich so I sold my share to my partners for 4 double Wild Turkeys at the local pub.
I haven't regretted it at all. Owning a paysite is a different kind of work than what most of us do now and once I was rid of them I started enjoying the biz again, and making more money.
