When I saw it (the high pay part to be precise), I thought "How weird. Steve doesn't know that porn star wages are not high at all, though he socialized with some of the stars." About 9 years ago I thought about becoming a porn star myself (so many confessions lately... I have to train my courage somehow
), and made some research and found out that porn movie actors were actually paid a very little (for the hard work, btw - believe me or not).
Today I've read Steve's words and thought - ok, the times have changed, cool. (Assuming Steve knows better as he talked to actors directly.)
But I've just read an amazing post from Violet Marcell's blog. I recommend reading it if you're interested (explicit):
Violet Marcell’s Blog » Blog Archive » It’s who I am! 
Violet says there that porn is her passion. (Being a porn actor actually costs her money.) How well-aligned with Steve's teachings
