Habbox also own/run Habboxworld.com , Habboxlive.com & Uploadpicz.com so that'll add up onto more money coming out of sierk's wallet.

aye but depending on ad's placed on them and money grabbing schemes it may mean more coming in also, main thing is habbox is secure financially otherwise it wouldnt of been running, hes just priviliged that its such a success so it can pay for itself.

I am sure the last 2 or 3 xmas's Habbox donated all of Decembers VIP money to a chosen charity (It was a registered charity last year if I recall and not a fund Sierk's Xmas charity). This might happen this year but I guess it depends on the state of the Habbox Finances and what bills need paying.
I am not sure the reason for charity donations but but Sierk could have kept all the money for himself with no questions asked.
This could be just to give something back or it could be a tax reasons but that is sierks business.
Its not good idea to make a profit without informing the tax man and also think of those massive forms they expect filling in.
If you look in the 'Habbox' part of the navigator on www.habbox.com you can see the charity donation or follow the link below.

Habbox has been through some Great times but also some difficult ones in the past over certain issues Sierk has always done what he believed was right and will continue to do so.
In my opinion if Habbo followed Habbox's example of how to deal with things they would have a lot more respect.

So basically he doesn't actually make a profit, or if he does, he doesn't use it for himself, he uses it to keep all the sites goingm, and make them better.

To all those people that says sierk loses more than he makes, then why does he carry on to keep all his sites he own?

No one has answered the question
He asked how much it earned, not if it goes back into stuff or if more needs to come from sierk's bank.

The site pays for itself at the minute I think but Sierk would put more money in to make up for anything that could not be paid for by income fom VIP and Google ads. Originally Posted by H0BJ0B

The big question is has he put more in than hes got out? and quite clearly he has put more in
In the beginning Sierk paid for everything out of his own pocket. Originally Posted by msb.

In the end I purchased the VB and domain habboxforum.com and became forum owner before agreeing a nominal fee to pass it over to Sierk, I dont want to disclose the fee he paid but that came out of his own pocket and it was a bit more than a VB license.
Back then the only VB habbo forum was HF but after how well HxF and HF were performing everybody rushed to get one.
I am not sure if Sierk is in profit or not from what he has spent on Habbox over the years but I doubt he is but only buying checking 4 years worth of ins and outs he would know. There is enough money to keep site running without him paying out his own pocket then its great news.Last edited by jrh2002; 18-11-2007 at 04:05 PM.
