Do You remember Your First Time Cashing Out?

I was reading a discussion earlier about someone cashing out for their first time. It brought back some happy memories. Although it was 3 years ago, I'll never forget the feeling that i got when I was paid for the first time. All the wondering and clicking had paid off. It wasn't that big an amount and I've certainly cashed out larger since but nothing compares to the first time. The site was Buxalot, which has now been gone for a while but at that time they were still legit and paying. All my friends were laughing at me and saying I'd never earn doing that now many of those same friends are my referrals in other sites. So do you remember your first time? Has anything since compared for you? I'm hoping this will bring back some fond memories for everyone and remind us that we have been blessed with being able to earn extra money. Let's have some fun now.

Yup, I remember my first payout last year. It's from my paid writing gigs. It wasn't that big but it did help me pay a portion of my tuition fee. I was very excited during that time. It was the first time that I've earned money for myself. LOL

The first time i cash out was last 3 months ago. A site paid me for 10 euro. At first i thought it was a scam but the moment i went back to login into my account i just cant believe i could earn from that site. So i continue joining until now. you can check this site if you want, registration is free and its so easy to earn. http://www.solvster.com/member/registration.php?fb_id=TlRZeU53PT0=

I do remember it clearly! It is also very memorable because I bought a souvenir for my first cash out. I bought from ebay a stamp book! I am so happy because i cannot find a stamp book in stores, shops or malls. I found it in ebay and my earnings came just in time for me to spend it! lol. At least i will never forget my first cash out because aside from being my first time, i also had a souvenir. By the way, my first cash out is courtesy of mylot... I hope I could get more earnings from this site. ;-P

Yeah, as far as I am concerned, I think I still can remeber the first time that I cash out clearly. Because, I just received my firs t payment here yesterday,which can not be so much for you i think. But I am still so glad to see my payment here. For this money is just done by myself,and it is my own work gets its result.I am happy now.

The first site that I ever cashed out from was Memolink. I loved it! It felt like I had actually accomplished something and the check I received in the mail looked sooooo good. In fact, I didn't want to cash it right away. I wanted some time to just look at it and savor the moment! LOL! I'm close to cashing out again with Memolink and this will be my third time. I love Memolink. Purrs, Catwoman=^..^= & Mija

Although my first online money making site is mylot but the first site that paid me was neobux. I am still using neobux. My first payment was a very little amount but it really encouraged me for spending more time online.

Well, yesterday only, it was the first time cash out from Mylot. I was so happy to see that my account has been credit. But I would say beside this I had got the first cash out from Buxwiz last year and it was just $2. I couldn't believe it but later I got cash from neobux also and it was also the same $2 for the first time and second was $3 from neobux. The feeling was awesome. I bought a deodarant online from that money..

My first time cashing out was just last week. It was only a small amount but I was so happy about it. It really felt good knowing that your effort had finally paid off. The feeling was overwhelming and I even tried to start a discussin to share it with you, unfortunately it was deleted for it has something in their which was against the guidelines.

The first site I got paid out froim was ciao for writing consumer articles. It wasn't as if I hadn't joined sites before, but quite a few of them didn't pay even after I worked on them and got referrals. The next site was this one, myLot and I have been paid several times which gave me back a bit of confidence to put some work in with these sites. _Derek

Even though I have been trying to earn extra money online for several years, it has taken me a while to get my first payment...my real first one was a $20 dstore voucherm in 2007 from valuedopinions which is an Australian survey site but as for recieving money, my first payment was from mylot last year. It always feels good when you get payments from sites you have joined up to for free but I will agree with you that it's the first payment that makes you strive for more :)

Surely I do. It was several months ago here and I am worried that if my time is worthy of paying. As you know, there are a lot of scams here and I would not gonna know which one is the legit site until I reach the min pay out. Though the amount is not too big, I am very excited as it is real and I could earn money from the internet. I started to learn new things, saying I knew paypal and alerpay for the first time I cashed the money out. First time is always impressive, no matter in what kinds of field.
