Playboy Going Bankrupt?

[Aletheides]

It looks like Hugh Hefner is facing some financial troubles. To top it all off his girlfriends are leaving (when the money goes so do the women haha).

He's starting to charge tickets if you want to go to a Playboy Mansion party - the Halloween party would run you $10k a head.

From what I gather the top brass is making him fire a bunch of employees in the CA and NY offices.

Is this the beginning of the end for Playboy? I hope not.

In Hugh's day, Playboy was the only game in town if you wanted to see "nekkid wimmins". You had to know the clerk at the bookstore and get him to go in back and get a copy and ring it up discreetly, then you had to hide it from the wife. Those days are GONE! Porn is everywhere. Porn is so cheap on the internet that you can get porn for free. Half of the places that charge for porn are run by the Russian mafia and are intended to steal your credit card. If you search Google for "toys" you get links for dildo sellers. AND you can do all this without leaving your chair. Hugh Hefner is behind the times. I'm sorry Hef, but Playboy is no longer relevant in a world of cheap online smut.

Also, there are parties with drunk horny women everywhere in America on a given Friday night. Hef's parties are actually kinda creepy, with this wrinkled old dude groping artificially enhanced 20 year old women. Sex is not a spectator sport, and there's no need to care about Hef's mansion parties when you can go to your friend's house and have sex personally with a friend of a friend of his girlfriend. Heck, if you're lazy you can log on to Craigslist and arrange a date for sex from your chair. Somebody took the tree that bears forbidden fruit and planted the saplings everywhere, and now the fruit is no longer forbidden. That's how success can kill you.

Rarely are words more true than those spoken (typed)...

Poor Hef,i reckon he never kept abreast of the times i think his daughter runs the business ???

[andrewrichardgale]

every business has a start middle (prime) and end

[Aletheides]

Yes his 55 year old daughter runs it now.

Probably wasn't the best idea, who knows if she knows what she's doing?

[bananaman]

Long live the Hef!

[fated]

Yeah...I hope Playboy does ends...Welcome to a new era of internet er...soft porn mag?

[Absinth]

Unbelievable! I can't even imagine that this will happen. Does anybody know what was the reason of its failure?

playboy is a classy magazine though... it's not smut like many other publications out there... if you really want to buy porn then the only way to buy it is through sites that pay you to do so, such as AllXClub Member Center ... but all this talk about playboy going under is rhubarb... i'd like to see some proof before i believe any such accusations

Hef will be happy until the day he dies, which will probably come pretty soon. Let's be honest, he doesn't have very much to worry about!

I love playboy and I'm a loyal subscriber... A great magazine with awesome articles and interviews.... But I do hope they fail at some point, I would want to be one of the first to market a new mag to that subscriber base!!
