I have tried to stay away from programs that were a high risk, like the Paid to Surf and HYIP's but the potential of making money with them has got me addicted to them, so much so I have even created a strategy to use to make money using them. And guess what, it's working. I even made a new Squidoo lens to help other Paid to Surf addicts learn how to make money using these programs. I have joined some for free and surf the pages every day as if I had thousands of dollars paid into them. Not only am I addicted to these programs but I can't seem to stay away from Mylot either. I know it's not the money because I haven't made a payout here for a couple of months. Have you found programs that you just couldn't give up? How do you get over these programs? Do you think I need help even if I am making money with them?

I think we're all addicted to making money online to some extent. In most cases, we could be earning more for our time doing something else, but we're drawn to the unique possibilities available in the online world. It's like a hobby that MIGHT become a job -- in the sense of delivering a steady and sizable income for us at some point down the line. Anyway, congratulations on making some money on the riskier side of the Internet. You're not the first person I've heard talk about making money with HYIPs, but most HYIPs I've seen are such straight-up ponzi schemes that they turn me off. You pretty much know that other people are going to lose money even if you happen to gain from one. Then again, there are some that claim to be based on forex or commodity trading -- I'd more likely to give one of those a try. I don't think you need help unless you find yourself unable to control the amount of time or money you're spending. As long as it isn't uncontrollable, it's just a hobby that happens to make you money!

Yeah that is so true... I sometimes wonder if it is just the thrill of winning(getting paid) that keeps us going back to these high risk program, Like gambling. I did find a few that are free to join that will pay for bringing in referrals so if you want to try one here is the link to the blog. http://squidoo.com/e-z-money

I'm addicted to my two favorite GPT sites- I work on them everyday- but it doesn't hurt- since they don't cost me a cent. Just earned $451 from one of them this month, so it's not bad at all. Would like to be making more, but I'm working on it.
