Rabbit’s High Yield Adventure

It is ironic that my last post was titled "AdTitans added to my PTS List" and now I have to post this one saying they are history. The admin disappeared without saying a word early last week. I guess the admin changing the Fast Track option to 9% was a sign of trouble afterall. In my previous post I mentioned that I thought the admin was just being pro-active in increasing the percentage deducted for the Fast Track option. I guess I was just being naive. At least the admin had the decency to disable the upgrade option before disappearing — preventing members from throwing more money in. The source I mentioned in my previous article said that the admin disappeared without stealing anyone's money (as if this is any consolation to those that lost money in the program ).

Now it is very obvious to me that any sign of a negative change in a Paid to Surf program is a sign to walk away or at least reduce your participation. Two of the most common signs include going to longer payout times and increasing fees. Another common sign I mentioned in my Compactsurf post-mortem article is the starting of a payment processor. The bottom line is that Paid to Surf programs, while they can be very profitable, are gambles. Still they are better gambles than the ponzi 40%+ per month HYIP ponzis in my opinion. One is more likely to make money from the Paid to Surf programs than these HYIPs (from personal experience). The thing we need to drill into our heads is that 30%+ per month cannot be obtained on a consistent basis from any investment. Thus, even sites claiming to be backed by investments should be considered high risk and a gamble if they pay over 20% - 30% per month on average.
