Hi BaldricksTrousers,

Dead on the money my friend. Quit tomorrow make millions for the next few years story over...WINNER! That is spoken from an old guy, Yuri still has a lot of time in the meter and loves his work. I am sure when it is getting to the point of truly being unsustainable he will hang his hat and live a wonderful life.
No one in this business can continue to keep there RPI the same as they build a larger and larger portfolio it is just a numbers thing for all of us, it has nothing to do with his business model. His revenue will continue to increase but his RPI will drop. 38,000 images x $85 ( $7 x 12 months )= $3.3 million a year. I would soooo quit, but that is just my Knees talking

Best,
Jonathan

Oh I doubt you'd ever quit entirely Jonathan - you like what you're doing way too much:) Quit running high-yield production company - maybe, but quit shooting - can't see that.

Hi Elenathewise,

You have me pegged

I just want to have the last part of my life to create my vision of art without having to worry if anyone else likes it or will buy it. That and teaching are my dream world but for now I have to shoot, shoot, shoot.

Best,
Jonathan

That probably puts you at Level 6, Jonathan, a whore! Roll on Level 7. http://www.kenrockwell.com/tech/7.htm

Hi Noodles,

I will never deny that my approach to my work is a bit like being a whore but hey they have the oldest profession known to mankind and they are still making a buck

Cheers,
J
