My Theory on Month to Month Cash out....

For some odd, but grateful reason, after being short a confounded 4¢ on a program that I could have cashed out of $100 - Adsense on my blogs -

this month (july) as I was working my GPT sites, and for another strange odd reason, one advertiser was crediting like gang-busters. I needed $10 to cash out. I was at $5. Thanks to these fast crediting offers , that are seldom seen, I was able to get my balance up to $18 - in 2 days! The last day being July 31 and cashout at midnight. I quickly cashed out for my $18! THen a few hours later it occured to me..... all over 4 cents, I didn't reach cash out on this one program, how can I keep that from happening again when so much of it is purely luck or who decides they want to credit?
So I went back with the thought, with $10 as the mini cash out, I should just cash out for the $10 and the rest can ride over into next month- that way I am already closer to the $10 c/o and might be able to not have the annoying 4¢ thing happen!
So I canceld the $18 c/o and cashed out at $10. That gives me $8 already to my August C/O. Then again, another thought, later, But how do I get the most money the soonest? So I canceled the $18 and cashed out for $15. Now I am $15 closer to my goals this month and have $5 into next months - theory is that now I only have to earn $5 to get cash out next month and hopefully can get more to roll over into Sept cash out barrel. So that is where I left it and, thanks to that one advertiser crediting a little quicker than usual and a few extra penny promotions, I am at $9 already for August cash out. My optomisim says "I need a buck for c/o - I surely am able to do that!"
My theory is to cash out at minimum and let the rest roll over for hopefully cash out next month. Good grief I sound like I am talking about IRA and roll-overs that make a difference, instead of pennies, but I guess we work with what we have and hope for the best and plan for the worst. No surprises that way!
So, any cashout theories any one else has to better obtain minimum cash out each month?

Your policy is good. I also do this but my strategy is little bit different from you. The basic is I cashout when I reach the minimum payout. But if in all cases the company take much time to payout and doesnot accept more than one payout request at a time at that cases I request payout at the end of the month. Because I want to get the maximum at the same with the minimum risk. Actually nothing is riskless and the more risk you take the more possibility to get the success of failure. Happy day!

You're right - risk in it all! I wasn't aware that some only allow one cash out at a time. All I do are net 30 - at least all that I have done so far. I have quite a few new ones that I haven't reached cash out on so I dont' know about those, but I figure I'll see how it goes and which ones do that! Unless it is a really good cashout made reasonable quickly, if it doesn't pay in 30-60 I will probably not bother working it anymore. I just dont' think there is any reason for payment to take any longer than that.
Thanks for mentioning that.
