Ambush Interview with Legendary Lars

Legendary Lars


Looking at Lars you get the impression that he's a surfer hippie. Lars is without a doubt one of the TRUE legends in this biz. Currenlty doing huge volumes though his own merchant accounts on streamray, Lars' background can be sumerized by periods of time when he said he made 'stupid money'. From involvement at ground level with things like mp3 sites, webtv, paid to surf programs, paysites, incredible one word urls, virutal hosting to his enormous live cam girls program lars has an extensive and impressive background even when compared to top players in the game. All this from someone who grew up in a bus and was raised by hippies.

2. What happend with the webtv deal?

14. Why do you have long hair?
15. What's the appeal to surfing? how often do you surf?
16. Blog?
17. Is Sean really in love with you?
18. How many women work for streamray live cams? Men?

21. What's your relationship to Friend Finder?
22. Being where you are in this biz - who do you look up to?
23. Have you ever had sex with one or more of your cam girls?
24. Just what the fuck does Sean do for you other than sexual favors?
25. Where did you find Sean?
26. Why did you get involved in Adult - discuss your first adult websites.
27. What cars do you own?
28. Is it true your success in business is compensation for a small penis?
29. What's the worst thing that ever happened to you business wise?
30. Why do you keep bumping your spam threads on GFY?
31. Why other than bumping spam threads do you come to GFY?
32. If given the choice between buying the url girls.com or cyberzine.com - which would you choose and why?
33. What happens to people who owe you money?
34. What's your political preference?
35. Talk about auction sites and ebay.
36. Where do you live? Why?
37. Why are your offices in Nevada when you don't live there?
38. What advantages are there to doing your own credit card processing? Disadvantages?

40. How many times have you been sued? How many times have you sued someone else? What for?
41. What is your favorite food?
42. If you had to start today with nothing but your knowldege- what would you go into?
43. How can you pay out the amounts you do upfront without shaving?
44. Where'd you get the name Legendary Lars?


PHEW - that's a LOT of questions. Anyone with some gay love photos of lars please post them here. And ENJOY the answers cause Lars is without a doubt one of the smartest people I have ever met. There's more wisdom in his words than most care to admit. When he speaks - LISTEN, trust me - LISTEN. Little ideas I got from him have made me stupid amounts of money.

let me just go on the record as saying that Lars is 1 part filthy and 2 parts rich and it's for this reason that I totally respect the guy. Because he's rich? No... but because you'd never know it to talk to him. He's totally down to earth, very kind and got a great sense of humor. He's just one of the guys and modest about it... having a tiny wee wee might have something to do with that too. j/k

I was on a bus with Lars at internext and he said this (referring to himself in the third person)

"Don't listen to anything that guys says, besides, I hear he has a small penis anyways"

So I'd take his answers with a 50lb bag of salt

I have to interject and say the extensive financial questions are getting too invasive Sleazy to be publicly broadcast on a board like this.

I wouldn't recommend anyone telling the world all your holdings and why you are incorporated in certain states, and how much money you have and all these types of things.

You'd have to be crazy to post that kind of info.

1. With all your sucessful businesses - how many have failed or flopped? How many BAD ideas have you had, lost money on? discuss in detail.


There are no bad buisiness faliures only learning experiences. I have had as many flopps as success, but each one has taught me a lesson that is carried on to the next project , or has taught me how to carry myself or interact with people. Some of the flops that come to mind are investments in several start up companies, that I was not controlling that went belly up with the implosion of the dot com boom. But our of one of those came streamray, so it was worth the loss ;) I prolly lost more in teh stock market than I have on all my otehr bad deals combined. Good news is I am up for all time so I figure I am ahead of the game now the last few years have been very good to me in the markets, more on that later. Another flop was a infomercial we did around camgirls I wanted to do a girls gon wild knockoff like the best of camgirls shows. Totally bombed, but I learned a lot about production and media buys I tried to knock off virtual girl but was only mildly successfull not enough for me to continue in that arena. My hats off to Rex and crew its not an easy product to pull off ! I tried to do paysites in 1997-1998 but got fuckerd by dmr when they went belly up ! Then I rebuilt and got fuckered by the guy who was running the backend for me. So I missed a lot of the paysite game that prolly woulda made me huge cash. But even that miss just madwe me hungry so when streamray came along I beat the living shit outta it Fortunately so far my bombs have not been huge money loosers. So I am ahead of the game.

2. What happend with the webtv deal?


Ok so I was running cyberzine.com and I took a wrong turn down a road one day in 1994. At the end of this road was a store and on the store was a huge sign that said SYSTEM V internet highway.. This was very unusual hardly anyone even know what the interent was in 1994 and to see a huge sign even more crazy. So I pulled over mind you I was 25 and still wet behind the ears. I walk in and there are like 3 guys running this unix house. I tell them about my site and at that time you gotta understand like I am 1 listing out of like 500 on yahoo. At that time is was Jakebono.stanford.edu there was no yahoo yet but that was it.. So the guy says I know your work I have seen it and think its good. So they say hey you should team up with us. After much wrangling I entered into a partnership with these guys. everything was kewl. One of the guys was a gold medalist in swimming, and he had the gift of gab. We were all ready to move into the netcom building netcom was a dial up ISP one of the first big nationwide ones and we had ties to them. The day we moved all our stuff in the swimmer guy got pissed about something snuck in in the middle of the night and walked with the equipment. I ended up with all his stock in the company since I took over all his work. My partner had registered the name webtv.com and we started doing buisness as this name for our design and hosting company. About 6 months into this company 2 guys came one day and offered to buy the name for 15K My partner said no thank you. We ended up changing the name of the company to IPP.COM internet presence providers, and we let the webtv sitre just be like a co brand. but pushed everyone to IPP.COM some years went bye and the 2 guys came back an said we are webtv give us the name. And they started to sue my partner. Somewhere in there being the dumb fuck i am said you should just have webtv.com since you were the one who originally bought it. anyway long story short because we did buisness as that name we had first right on the name and they had dick. They ended up settling. And i told my partner he was settling too cheap. The next day after he settled Microsoft bought the company they were just waiting on this one deal to go down in order to close th 400 million buck deal with microsoft. hahah he had them by the balls and let it go. He still made out good but he could a done better and i got LARSED. IPP was eventually sold to a public company and I made a nice chucnk of change in tthe hosting biz long before anyone even knew what hosting was. That was the most work I ever did for the least ammount of money though !

Did you find those barefoot people playing bluegrass on the street that live in the Taoist house in Santa Cruz yet? If so, where are the pictures?
