Update following CobexTrade

Well its not been the best start to the new year. My favourite e-Currency site, Liberty Reserve, seems to be coming under sustained DDOS attacks, making the site sometimes hard to access. But worse still, CobexTrade has gone.

CobexTrade is a reminder (not that I wanted one!) that HYIPs are not just High Yield, but also High Risk. These sites come and go, and even with a very high reputation, CobexTrade has died.

So what now? Well I still have some other funds, partly earned on the GoldAge forum, which I don't think I've mentioned here before. GoldAge is a forum dedicated to investors on HYIPs etc... and it actually pays its members for posting! Not a lot admittedly, but its nice to earn at the same time as get good advice from fellow HYIP investors.

Here's my current portfolio...small as it is again now:
BreInvest
Sochi-Invest.org
Golden Purse

CobexTrade has been an unpleasant reminder not to get too secure a feeling from HYIPs...I lost a lot of my egold there...but lessons will be learnt.

So now I'm planning to spread my money out...I'll invest (particularly in BreInest for a very short period) and then lift out half my funds into further sites, slowly spreading the risk, and my portfolio...hopefully this way we'll see some real increases in the funds.

I'm still using wjob and donkeymails to bring in fresh funds..so fingers crossed I'm still ontrack with my plan!

Investing nothing to get something

If its ok with you, I might just share a new challenge I'm putting on myself. I've got a small amount invested at http://passiveprofits.net/ . Darwin, the Admin at Passive Profits, is a really decent chap, very honest and hard working. This said, the HYIP market that he uses to make his community money, is all over the place at the moment, so my $55 isn't growing much! But that's no problem, this is "fun money", I'm investing for enjoyment here, not need. So the latest challenge....as the title may suggest, I'm going to make something (equal to my input into Passive Profits...so $55) out of nothing...zip....zero...$0. Well, it's all for fun, so I'm once again going to be putting my money into the HYIP world...and frankly may well never see it again...but hey! This is for fun! Oh, that little bit about starting with zero....that's right....I'm going to make my money from these silly sites that give you free money for surveys, registratio

Get paid to use Yahoo Search Engine!

Wow, well I knew one of these days that I'm come across a good money maker that I'd missed. Well this is that moment. Rather tragically, I came across MySearchFunds.com some years back and ignored it (I forget why, but I wasn't on my quest for money making ideas back then). Well MySearchFunds.com, which has now changed its name to Homepage Friends (a rather naff name change if you ask me), pays you to search the web. This used to be through Google, but they have recently switched over to Yahoo as their search provider. But nothing really changes. You goto your search page (set as your homepage for ease) e.g. mine is: http://www.myhpf.co.uk/mypage.asp?OrgID=87564 All the then have to do is use the search box to search with Yahoo. The results are no different to Yahoo's normal results, and you end up with about 2.4p (that's about $0.048) per search. At the rate I'm going, I'll have about £250 ($500) this year from the site... that makes my quest for

Bitcoin faucet - Cointiply review

Well I didn't think I'd be back here talking about faucets! For those who don't know, a Bitcoin faucet is a site that gives away free Bitcoins (or fractions there of!). The catch is usually lots of adverts, and a time limit on how often you can "claim". So why am I writing about faucets again? Well I'm out of work at the moment, and have been clicking around, and rejecting a lot of naff sites... but then I came across Cointiply , and liked it. What Cointiply offers You need to register (I don't normally go in for that, but the reviews show a long paying out site) It pays all games/features out as "Coins" in your site wallet. 1 coin is one USD cent such that the amount of Bitcoin (BTC) you'll get on payout will be based on the exchange rate at the time. This protects you from falls in the value of Bitcoin until you're ready to cashout. Cashout is from $3.50. I've got to $1 within an afternoon of clicking in the backgrou
