Long Term Vs. Short Term

2007-04-04T10:22:00.000-07:00

I initially started this blog based on a strategy I was using to take advantage of short term quick-scam HYIPs, but simply couldn't keep up with the fast pace and amount of time it took to stay up to date.

In the past few months I've realized that many other people out there are probably just like me in this case. Even though my strategy works well enough, there probably wouldn't be many people who could apply it.

I've also spent a lot of time investigating longer term HYIPs and the benefits associated with them.

The main benefit is that the time constraints are very minimal and many of the same principles I applied to the short term HYIPs can apply here as well.

In fact they are pretty similar all across the board except for one thing which is common sense. It takes longer to generate profits from the long term HYIPs.

So if you have a little bit of patience, even if you have very little time, long term HYIPs can turn out to be very profitable.

I'll be trying to keep this blog updated with more information about long term HYIP investments as I continue to investigate.

Stay tuned to this blog.

This Blog Can Still Be A Great Reference Tool

2007-03-07T18:11:00.000-08:00

Well it's been quite a long time since my last post on this blog. I basically got burned out awhile back and had too much other stuff goin on in my life.

I would love to get back into the game seriously again but unfortunately I still don't have that kind of time.

I just wanted to update this blog and say that it can still be used as a great reference tool to anyone interested in applying strategy to HYIPs to increase your odds of being successful.

So please take time to go back over past posts of mine. I feel I outlined a very reasonable strategy that you yourself could carry on or build upon.

As for future posts, they won't be frequent but I may start posting random tips and ideas and opinions of mine, to keep this blog from dying out completely.

Enjoy!

I Guess You Could Say I Took A Vacation...

2006-08-18T17:55:00.000-07:00

...a vacation from this blog anyway.

Sorry but I just got really overwhelmed and never got around to posting for the last week. I also began a new project that has taken up a lot of my time.

Like I've mentioned before, HYIP investing takes a lot of time and is somewhat stressful as well.

I've thought about retiring this blog and just leaving it up as a reference since I have collected and posted quite a bit of helpful information but I don't think I'm done quite yet.

What made this worse was that I just started an investment in On-LineEarn.com (which turned out to be a scam, I'll write more about that later today) so I'm sorry I left you guys hanging there.

I don't think I'll be doing too much HYIP investing from now on but I may post other information about HYIPs along with the odd HYIP I join now and then.

HYIP Update, 8/13

2006-08-13T02:06:00.000-07:00

I was paid by On-LineEarn today.

On-LineEarn, Day 1

Started Aug 11, 2006
Running days 2
Total accounts 250
Active accounts 40
Total deposited $ 656.00
Total withdraw $ 14.85

Everything is going great so far. The payout to deposit percentage is at a very tiny 2.3% and they are still advertising on TalkGold.

I have earned $1.25 in ref commission and will be reinvesting it along with my $11 in earnings. Unfortunately for some strange reason they do not allow you to reinvest with your account balance so I have to wait to get my withdrawl to eGold before I can reinvest.

This is very inconvenient and I have no idea why they don't allow you to reinvest from your account balance.

HYIP Investment Number 7

2006-08-12T01:09:00.001-07:00

I have decided to invest in On-LineEarn.com.

This HYIP is a little different in that it is based off of rounds. In other words it will go until the payout to deposit percentage is at a certain point (In this case 90%) and then stop and restart with a new round.

It truly is a very interesting concept and eliminates the admin running with the money factor involved with most HYIPs. I am very optimistic about this type of HYIP but really am not quite sure how it is going to work out.

Since I don't have to worry about the admin running with the money I will also have to play it slightly different.

There wouldn't be much difference except they already completed round one and just started round 2.

My stats:

eGold Balance: $169
Investment: $20
Percent of Balance: 11.8%
New Balance: $149

First Round Stats:
Started Aug 4, 2006
Running Days 7
Total Accounts 224
Active Accounts 150
Total Deposited $4,476.30
Total Withdraw $4,032.23

Second Round Stats (Current Round):
Started Aug 11, 2006
Running days 1
Total accounts 243
Active accounts 35
Total deposited $ 582.00
Total withdraw $ 0.00

I have invested $20 in the 55% daily for 2 days plan. If you are going to invest be sure to do so in this plan. You will make a lot more doing this for 3 days than to do the 3 day plan that they have.

I debated about the amount I was going to put in for a few minutes because it almost feels like I'm going in blind but there are some strong positive factors that pushed me to spend $20 instead of less.

These factors include a banner advertising campaign on the TalkGold forums. Today was the first time I saw their banner. Plus they have great positive support in the forums. I feel this round will grow bigger than the first with more members joining from ads and word of mouth and feel that it has a decent shot of lasting longer than the first round which if it does I will be making some very good profits with this.

With this type of HYIP it will much easier for me to determine how the change in payout to deposit percentage affects my reinvestment.

I think this will be very fun and profitable. I can't wait to see the results.

The best news is that I can continue to play this same HYIP over and over again as new rounds start and won't have to jump to new ones all the time.

You MUST Do Your Own Due Dilligence

2006-08-11T20:43:00.000-07:00

Before deciding to invest in any program that I currently am in your MUST do your own due dilligence.

I have heard from a couple people on the forums who are disgruntled with me because they lost money in the HYIPs I joined myself.

The problem is that HYIP investments change really fast with the type of programs I am dealing with so I can in no way guarentee a HYIP is still a good investment at the time you join.

This is why you must do your own due dilligence to determine if it is still a good investment.

Please don't take the HYIPs I list as 'picks' that are likely to succeed. I only list the HYIPs I have joined and do not recommend you join them too. That is completely your decision.

Remember that to succeed in the HYIP market you must put in the time and effort yourself.

If you can do this, you can succeed.

My Strategy Update

2006-08-09T19:25:00.000-07:00

Up to now I feel my strategy has worked better than I originally expected. Granted I've only participated in 6 different HYIPs I still feel this is enough to prove that I'm at least on to something with my strategy.

Overall I have won money in 5 of the 6 HYIPs I participated in and the one that I lost in I lost because I got too cocky and went off my strategy.

Since the last update I've accumulated the following profits after fees:

SolaHYIP: $2.35
AlpsFinance: $4.79
FirmHYIP: $8.60
Ref Commission: $1.2
Total new profits: $15.8

Overall Profit: $18.9
Overall Ref Commission: $4.2

My profits now total $18.9 and since I currently have no active investments I have about $169 in my eGold account.

This means that using my HYIP investment strategy I have turned $150 into $169 (excluding ref commission) or achieved a 12.6% profit in only 18 days.

Think about that return for a second. That is absolutely amazing for only 18 days. Now imagine if I had invested in twice as many HYIPs and won in 10 of 12. That profit could possibly be double to 25%.

I am very pleased with my strategy and just wish I had more time to invest in HYIPs because I feel I could increase my account balance much, much faster.

Oh well... at least this shows that my strategy does work. I just can't wait to see what my success is like after 100 HYIPs.

FirmHYIP is a Scam

2006-08-09T18:33:00.000-07:00

I apologize for my post yesterday, it made it seem like FH was still legit when in reality it had probably already stopped paying.

I should've taken the time to check the forums to see what people were saying about it.

I'll try to keep something like this from happening in the future.

HYIP Update, 8/8

2006-08-08T19:26:00.000-07:00

AlpsFinance

I have received my payout and did not reinvest. I don't feel that by following the unit sales (the only info on their site you can follow) it will help me in any like it does with the quick scam HYIPs that show all the stats.

Due to this I will not be mentioning them anymore.

FirmHYIP

Running days 4
Total accounts 214
Active accounts 161
Total deposited $ 6,492.22
Total withdraw $ 1,317.73

Since yesterday I've received about a $1.80 in ref commission from them. They are still doing really good and in fact their payout to deposit percentage has dropped significantly to 20.2%.

This info is very interesting and will be helpful in determining how long I stay in future quick scam HYIPs.

I'm pretty sure FH will last another 24 hours and maybe even a couple more days.

Payout Received From AlpsFinance

2006-08-08T17:49:00.000-07:00

I have now received my payment from AF. I turned my original $10 investment into $15 ($14.79 after fees) in 15 days.

This HYIP was quite a bit different than all the rest I've been in because it was more long term but to reiterate, I had received a reliable tip from another HYIP investor and everything about the program showed that it was going to be a great investment.

In fact, it still may be a great investment. A HYIP like this can last for many, many months especially the way unit sales have been going. But the fact is that you just never know and at this point in the game I have no idea what is going to happen so therefore I'm not going to reinvest.

My specialty is playing HYIPs in the early stages, once it goes past this stage my strategy isn't backed up in any way, which means I can't be sure that the odds are in my favor, which means I can't put money on it.

HYIP Update, 8/7

2006-08-07T20:30:00.000-07:00

SolaHYIP

SolaHYIP is dead but I forgot to update on the fact that I made $13 off of my $10 investment in the paid daily plan. That was $12.35 after fees so a $2.35 profit.

FirmHYIP

Running days 3
Total accounts 179
Active accounts 136
Total deposited $ 2,920.90
Total withdraw $ 880.33

FH's payments all hit my account. I made $1.50 in ref commission and $8.60 profit after fees.

FH is still doing great, holding the payout to deposit percentage at 30% with lot of new deposits. I knew it would likely last through today but with nearly a 50% profit in only 2 days I was plenty satisfied to secure my earnings and not risk anything more.

AlpsFinance

Available Units: 3701/6000

Unit sales are still very strong. I'll probably get paid out later tonight. I'll let you know tomarrow.

HYIP Overview, 8/06

2006-08-06T21:07:00.000-07:00

SolaHYIP

SolaHYIP is officially a scam. Why their site is still up I don't know but I feel I played this HYIP very well.

AlpsFinance, Day 14

Available Units: 4667/6000

Over 1300 units were purchased. They are still selling like hot cakes, this may have been excentuated by the fact that AF is offering an additional 5% bonus per unit.

I personally take this as a very bad sign because it may be a ploy to draw in a ton of new investments right before they scam. Needless to say, I won't be reinvesting.

Tomarrow I should be getting paid out. No question, it will last another 24 hours.

FirmHYIP, Day 2

Running days 2
Total accounts 137
Active accounts 101
Total deposited $ 1,497.70
Total withdraw $ 492.85

Although FH is still doing pretty good with a 32% payout to deposit percentage and are still advertising on TalkGold, I have decided to withdraw all my money.

I actually made $1.20 in ref commission so I withdrew $14.20 (I turned $10 into $13). The reason I decided to withdraw was because I felt I made plenty of profit from this HYIP and was satisfied with my earning.

With my initial investment of $20 I managed to get $9 in pure profit with $1.50 in ref commission. It is all in my eGold account at this time.

I'll update further on this tomarrow.

Retrospective Analysis of HourlyTrust Investment

2006-08-06T11:41:00.000-07:00

I hate to say this but looking back on my investment into HourlyTrust my greed (and also a little arrogance) got the better of me.

What went through my head when I was deciding whether to invest in the 24 hour plan or the 48 hour plan was that I didn't think I'd be on when my investment matured for the 24 hour plan and wouldn't be able to reinvest right away so I went with the 48 hour plan. This was even after I knew that the extra profit wasn't even close to worth the risk.

That was just an excuse I made to allow myself to be greedy plus I thought there was no way it would close within 48 hours which was my arrogance talking.

If I had invested in the 24 hour plan I would have definitely withdrew right away and probably would have got my money too.

So this was the one time so far when my emotional control really faultered. But the important thing is that I learned from my mistake which I certainly have. Admitting I was wrong here is also a pretty important step.

So when I found FirmHYIP I began having the same thoughts but refrained from investing in the 2 or 3 day plans and just went with the shortest one. It's always a good idea to invest in the shortest plan possible and then after that investment matures reassess the program to see if you'd like to reinvest or not.

I also changed up my strategy a little bit and went with a $20 investment instead of a $10 one which happened to be 16% of my total eGold balance. Although I was risking a greater amount, I felt the odds of this program collapsing in 24 hours was very unlikely based off of all the other HYIPs I've followed (a lot more than I've reviewed here).

I aslo had the sense to withdraw a large chunk of this investment as soon as possible to further reduce the risk of adding so much money.

As of now it still looks great and it's looking like I may be reinvesting in FirmHYIP again, that's after I withdraw enough to be in profit though.

HYIP Update, 8/05

2006-08-05T22:16:00.000-07:00

SolaHYIP, Day 14

Active member: 1825
Total deposits: $203,418.32
Total payouts: $68,147.137

First off, I did not get paid by SolaHYIP today. I'm pretty sure they've ran with the money already but I'll go ahead and wait till tomarrow before I say anything for sure.

The payout to deposit percentage is 33.5% but again these stats were altered a least once to a pretty extreme degree and made have been changed to some degree after that first time also.

AlpsFinance, Day 13

AF has started their 4th offering of units:
Available Units: 5962/6000

Unit sales were basically right at 1000 today. I guess the weekend seems to be a better time for new investments because this is the time unit sales have picked up for AF since I started monitoring it.

Everything still looking very good.

Reinvestment In FirmHYIP

2006-08-05T19:56:00.000-07:00

Running days 1
Total accounts 106
Active accounts 79
Total deposited $ 822.16
Total withdraw $ 205.31

My $20 investment grew to $26.30. I decided to reinvest $10 of that and withdrew the remaining $16.30. By the way that $16.30 hit my eGold account almost instantly after I requested withdrawl. This is very, very good.

30 cents of that $16.30 was also a ref commission from a signup under me.

I decided to reinvest in FH because the payout to deposit percentage is only 24.3%. That's about normal (maybe a little on the high side) for a HYIP just starting off. People are also really positive in the forums and are getting their withdrawls.

Once a HYIP makes it through the first day with a pretty good percentage, it can usually run for a couple more days therefore I reinvested.

We'll just have to see how it goes. Stay tuned.

HYIP Update, 8/04

2006-08-04T22:51:00.000-07:00

SolaHYIP paid me again.

SolaHYIP, Day 13

Active member: 1703
Total deposits: $173,418.32
Total payouts: $58,147.137

At this point I'm not even sure it's worth continuing my tracking of SolaHYIP since they have altered their stats and may still be doing it in a less noticeable way.

At least I'll be able to catch them again if they are stupid enough to lower the payouts below the previous days payouts like with the first time.

Their payout to deposit percentage has risen 10% up to 33.5%. Short of altering the stats again I don't think SolaHYIP will be able to recover from this beginning upward climb in their payout to deposit percentage but it'll be interesting to see.

AlpsFinance, Day 12

Available Units: 930/6000

Unit purchases are picking up again and this third offering is almost completely out now. Everything still on the up and up and I don't see them going down within the next few days thereby making it very likely that I will get my return of 150% on my $10 investment.

6th HYIP Investment

2006-08-04T16:53:00.000-07:00

I have chosen to invest in FirmHYIP.com.

My stats:

Current eGold Amount: $123
Amount Invested: $20
Percent Invested: 16%
New Balance: $103

FH stats:

Started Aug 4, 2006
Running days 0
Total accounts 70
Active accounts 52
Total deposited $ 342.24
Total withdraw $ 6.17

I decided to do things a little bit different with this HYIP instead of investing a lower amount for a longer time I decided to invest a higher amount for a shorter time. I have invested $20 in the 130% after 1 day plan.

This is something I learned from my HourlyTrust investment, which I will be making a more detailed post on today or tomarrow.

So far the response on the forums has been very positive plus the admin is a member of many HYIP monitors (even though this part doesn't make that much difference).

I'm very confident in this investment.

SolaHYIP Altered The Payout Stats!

2006-08-04T16:14:00.000-07:00

This was very suprising to find out and I can't believe I didn't suspect something before, but it is obvious that SolaHYIP altered their stats at least once.

If you've been following my blog you noticed how suprised I was when the payout to deposit percentage dropped from 40% to 23% from August 1st to August 2nd. I simply couldn't understand how it dropped so strongly so late in the game.

Here are the following stats that the admin himself even posted on the forums:

7/31:
Active member: 904
Total deposits: $84287.36
Total payouts: $28493.17

8/1:
Active member: 1023
Total deposits: $91394.13
Total payouts: $36458.39

8/2:
Active member: 1153
Total deposits: $109,145.36
Total payouts: $29,132.139

8/3:
Active member: 1689
Total deposits: $154,107.16
Total payouts: $36,378.275

As you can clearly see from 8/1 to 8/2 the Payout stats were reduced by over $7,000. Not only is a reduction of $7,000 in payouts not possible but payouts surely would have increased by many thousands over that period of time.

I am not defaming SolaHYIP in any way, merely pointing out information that was even posted by the admin himself (check between pages 11 and 12 on the SolaHYIP thread at Talkgold).

Now I know most HYIPs and HYIP admins are pretty shady people who run programs that scam loads of money from people but altering the stats to make it appear that your HYIP is doing better than it really is is a completely new low.

I personally challenge the admin of SolaHYIP to come to my blog and post a comment explaining exactly how it would be possible for something like this to happen.

Although I can't see any plausible excuse for this, it would be interesting to hear what the admin has to say.

I'm very suprised that SolaHYIP managed to get away with this alteration for so long and ashamed that I didn't catch it myself sooner.

Anyway, I will be revealing this information on MMG and TG shortly and it will likely cause almost all new deposits to halt and the program to close down in a couple days if not sooner. This may not be the case but from my experience I don't see any other direction this could go.

Many people will also probably be very mad at me but I'd rather bring this up now then down the road when thousands of more people would be affected.

Suprisingly enough I am still an active member in SolaHYIP but I don't care about any extra money I may lose out on. Altering stats is very low and very dispicable even for a HYIP and needs to be brought to people's attention.

HYIP Update, 8/03

2006-08-03T21:49:00.000-07:00

SolaHYIP paid me again

SolaHYIP, Day 12

Active member: 1689
Total deposits: $154,107.16
Total payouts: $36,378.275

The payout to deposit percentage has fallen some more down to 23.6%. What's amazing is that in just the last 24 hours $45,000 has been deposited into SolaHYIP. That's more than most people earn in a year. Membership also grew by over 500 people.

I'm amazed that SolaHYIP is bringing in so much money and frankly am not sure exactly what they are doing (if they're even doing anything at all). All I know is that these admins are going to be filthy rich when they decide to run with the money.

AlpsFinance, Day 11

Available Units: 1744/6000

Unit purchases slowed down quite a bit now but they have so much money built up that they can last awhile. Lets wait and see if they're unit purchases pick up again this weekend like they did last weekend.

HYIP Investing Is Very Time Consuming

2006-08-03T20:41:00.000-07:00

This last week and a half has been a pretty wild ride with me putting my HYIP strategy to some serious and heavy testing.

So far I really like the results I'm getting and am really liking my strategy but unfortunately it takes a lot of time to keep up with everything.

Between this blog, looking for HYIPs, reading through and posting on the forums, and doing all the necessary research I was spending a good hour and a half to 2 hours every day for awhile there which is a huge portion of my available free time.

Unfortunately this was getting too taxing and even affecting how much sleep I was getting so although I think this is great and would love to keep going full board adding 1 or 2 new HYIPs every couple days, it just isn't practical for me.

That being said, this blog will continue to run and I'll continue to post updates and join new HYIPs but it won't be nearly as frequent as the last week and half. In fact, I'll probably only be looking for new HYIPs over the weekend when I have more available free time.

It was nice to get the jumpstart that I did, I've already joined 5 different programs, but I'm going to have to start going at a slower pace from now on.

I just thought I'd let all my readers know this and for all those who are interested in becoming serious HYIP investors you now know that it can be time consuming.

I will update on my HYIPs later today.

HYIP Update, 8/02

2006-08-02T21:15:00.000-07:00

Paid by SolaHYIP again today; 11 times so far.

SolaHYIP, Day 11

Active member: 1153
Total deposits: $109,145.36
Total payouts: $29,132.139
Latest update: Aug 2,2006
Started date: July 20,2006

Wow, it's amazing the fluctuations that are occuring with SolaHYIP payout to deposit percentage. It has now dropped all the way back down to 26%. I'm pretty suprised. I feel this may be due to the first group of people who invested at the start in Plan B reinvesting their money in addition to new investments.

AlpsFinance, Day 10

Available Units: 2070/6000

Unit sales are still doing extremely well. Continues to look great.

HYIP Update, 8/01

2006-08-01T21:00:00.000-07:00

SolaHYIP paid me again.

SolaHYIP, Day 10

Active member: 1023
Total deposits: $91394.13
Total payouts: $36458.39

The payout to deposit percentage increased some more to 40%. At this point I don't think SolaHYIP will be able to keep this percentage from steadily increasing until they finally decide to run. It should be interesting to see.

I've already got my main profit out so anything else is great.

AlpsFinance, Day 9

Available Units: 2751

New investments have slowed down considerably but the last increase of 3 days straight with over 1000 units sold may have been due to the weekend and therefore may happen again this coming weekend.

Regardless, they are still bringing in plenty of new investments to continue paying people out.

Paid By Hyipomagic and SolaHYIP

2006-08-01T19:40:00.000-07:00

I was paid $11.56 off of my $10 investment after all fees from HyipoMagic for a profit of $1.56.

I was also paid $12.29 off of my $5 investment after all fees in SolaHYIP for a profit of $7.29. My other $10 SolaHYIP Investment has also almost broken even with $9.50 hitting my account after all fees. I won't tally this into my total eGold balance until SH goes under though.

And then of course I lost $10 in Hourly Trust.

My updated stats are as follows:

Current eGold Balance: $109
Programs Currently in: 2
Programs Profited from: 3
Current Profit: $4.20
New Profit: $13.1
Progams Lost from: 1
Current Loss: $10
Overall Earnings: +$3.1
Bonus Earnings (ref commission): $3

New eGold Balance (Not Including Bonuses): $123

Scammed By HourlyTrust

2006-08-01T19:27:00.000-07:00

Unfortunately I never got my pay out from hourly trust. I got an email saying I was paid but no actual payment.

Why HT would have went down now is beyond me. The admins would have been lucky to break even if all their startup costs were taken into account.

I think one problem that turned people off was the slow loading site. Being that I have cable I don't really give much thought about that but lots of HYIP investors out there probably have dialup. If it takes 10-15 seconds to load the site using cable, it would probably never load on dialup.

This is not an excuse by the way, I'm just thinking out loud so I can add this to my notes and make sure to be more wary of very slow loading sites because it can have a profoundly negative impact.

As far as me losing $10 to HT, sometimes that's going to happen. That's why I have money management measures in place. Although it does suck, that's all part of investing. Just like with Day Trading you have to expect to lose and be prepared for it.

I got some more payouts but I'll make a seperate post for that and use that post to update on my new stats.

HYIP update, 7/31

2006-07-31T21:53:00.000-07:00

I was paid by SolaHYIP again today for the 9th time. Tomarrow is the big payout.

SolaHYIP, Day 9

Active member: 904
Total deposits: $84287.36
Total payouts: $28493.17

The payout to deposit ratio is up some more to 33%. It still is looking OK, I think it can easily last through tomarrow.

AlpsFinance, Day 8

Available Units: 3179

New unit purchases weren't up quite as much as they have been but there's still lots of new investment. Still looking great.

Withdraw From HyipoMagic

2006-07-31T20:06:00.000-07:00

I decided to withdraw all my money from HyipoMagic as well.

Really I think this program may last quite awhile longer but it is getting kind of old for my tastes and the small return simply isn't worth the risk for me to reinvest any money.

I have withdrawn $12 but they took out a 2% fee and eGold will also take out a fee so my overall profit will be pretty small.

Here are today's stats:

Total Withdrawl From HourlyTrust

2006-07-31T18:50:00.000-07:00

I have decided to withdraw all my money from HT. I will update when that money actually hits my eGold account but I should be getting $22.40. $1 of that was from another referral so that makes $4 total ref commission which I really wasn't expecting at all but is very nice.

$1.40 of that also came the $1 bonus that was automatically invested in the 140% after 24 hours plan. Since it was a bonus and something not everyone can get I will be lumping it in with my ref commission.

As for my $10 investment though, I managed to double it to $20 which is absolutely great.

Now you may be wondering WHY I decided to withdraw ALL my money. To make this decision I looked at two factors, advertising and my previous HYIP experience.

For one I noticed that HT wasn't advertising on TalkGold anymore and also that its forum threads on TG and MMG weren't very popular. These are the two main sources of advertising for any HYIP and if the advertising is sucking so will the new members and investments.

I also went back and compared it to the results I posted regarding ImpartialHYIP (you could do this too if you wanted) and saw that it simply wasn't growing nearly as fast and that it didn't have even close to the amount of deposits IH had at that point.

Remember, due diligence is important when getting into a HYIP but it's also very helpful for knowing when to get out or reinvest in a HYIP.

Here are the stats today:

HYIP Update, July 30

2006-07-30T19:02:00.000-07:00

SolaHYIP paid me again today. HourlyTrust paid me the ref commission.

SolaHYIP, Day 8

Active member: 668
Total deposits: $61321.15
Total payouts: $13146.72

Membership keeps on steadily increasing and new deposits continue to shoot up by thousands of dollars. The payout to deposit percentage stayed bascially the exact same at 21.4%. I'm looking forward to the big payoff in two more days when my $5 deposit will have doubled and half to $12.50.

AlpsFinance, Day 7

Available Units: 3966/6000

Well this marks the 3rd day straight where new unit sales have exceeded 1000. Very, very good.

HyipoMagic, Day 3

Running days 3
Total accounts 61
Active accounts 31
Total deposited $ 910.45
Today deposited $ 102.00
Total withdraw $ 137.93

Everything is still looking pretty good. I'm very confident that I'll be getting my payout tomarrow. The payout to deposit percentage has increased a little more to 15.2% but is still within a reasonable range.

HourlyTrust, Day 1

Running days 1
Total accounts 123
Active accounts 117
Total deposited $ 265.23
Total withdraw $ 52.80

HT banners are still running on TalkGold which is great. The payout to withdraw percentage is up to 19.9% but that is expected due to the higher than typical payouts and the fact that it is still taking off. By tomarrow I'm expecting there to be a sizeable increase in new members and deposits and am confident that I'll be getting paid out.

HourlyTrust Paid To My eGold Account

2006-07-30T15:34:00.000-07:00

Within an hour of requesting the money from my referral commission HourlyTrust deposited the money into my eGold account.

Very fast and great service.

More Referral Commission From HourlyTrust PLUS a Bonus

2006-07-30T11:47:00.000-07:00

Two more people signed up through my link and now I have earned $3 total in ref commission.

Plus HT gave $1 to the first 100 investors and apparently I was one of them. This bonus was automatically invested by HT into the 140% after 24 hours plan.

Since it is almost completely pointless to leave money in a HYIP without withdrawing it, I have just withdrawn my $3 in ref commission.

I'm willing to pay the 5% eGold fee to get this amount of money safely in my eGold account, I didn't feel this was worth it for just $1.

Due to the fact that referral commission is not something everyone will be able to get I will NOT be including it in my total eGold balance for this project. I will simply start another stat for myself that shows the amount of ref commission I have earned after fees.

ImpartialHYIP Has Fallen

2006-07-29T20:37:00.000-07:00

Yep, it finally happened, IH is gone. Although I was regreting getting out as early as I did, it seems now that I only got out 2 days before the collapse. I guess that's not too bad at all.

These were the last stats from IH:

Started Jul 24, 2006
Running days 5
Total accounts 371
Active accounts 238
Total deposited $ 14,210.02
Total withdraw $ 5,267.56

The payout to deposit percentage was 37%. To me it doesn't really make sense that they would have ran at this point because the percentage was actually falling again and therefore more money was being generated to run with.

But like I said, the HYIP admin is the wild card in any HYIP. You just never know.

HYIP Update, July 29

2006-07-29T20:19:00.000-07:00

SolaHYIP paid me again today. I also earned $1 in referral commission from HourlyTrust which is quite exciting since it is my first commission. That money is still in my account and I will withdraw or reinvest it depending on how I feel after I get paid from my investment.

SolaHYIP, Day 7

Active member: 586
Total deposits: $46307.5
Total payouts: $9882.93

Everything is looking better again with SolaHYIP, I was getting slightly more worried (not really concerned) due to the increasing payout to deposit ratio but that has fallen by almost half since yesterday down to 21.3%.

What's even more amazing is that the total deposits have shot up 2.5x what they were to $46,307. That's almost $30,000 invested in the period of a day. Plus membership was relatively close to doubling.

Why so many people would want to dump so much money into SolaHYIP at this point is beyond me but I certainly don't mind.

AlpsFinance, Day 6

Available Units: 4971/6000

This new round of investment units just started today and already has sold just over 1000. This is amazing and very good. The last round which I invested in had only 4000 units but this one has 6000 units.

It's obvious that people have some serious confidence in AF and with all the new money pouring in since my investment I don't see any reason why I won't be getting paid in 9 days.

HyipoMagic, Day 2

Started Jul 27, 2006
Running days 2
Total accounts 57
Active accounts 30
Total deposited $ 783.45
Today deposited $ 119.00
Total withdraw $ 85.29

Everything is on track so far. Still have 2 days before payout. The payout to deposit percentage is 10.8% which is not bad at all and about what I'd expect.

5 Tips For Successful HYIP Investing

2006-07-29T16:31:00.000-07:00

HYIPs are quite a challenging investment and if you truly desire to profit it from them you must be able to weed out the bad programs and only invest in the select few that have the best chance for success.

Through my years of experience investing in HYIPs myself, I bring to you the following 5 tips that I ALWAYS look for before investing:

1. Advertising - This is one of the most important factors. Any HYIP that advertises will get a lot more members and more money flowing in than a HYIP who just has a thread on a couple forums.

Because of this there are also a wider range of people promoting it and telling others bringing in even more people and investments. And as you should know new members and new investments are the cornerstone to a longer lasting HYIP.

Advertising is probably the one factor that can make the biggest difference in the success of a HYIP.

2. Reputation - Before investing in any HYIP it is vitally important to check out the reputation of it and read what other people are saying. By checking the reputation you can protect yourself from joining a HYIP that's not paying or that has poor customer support or that is inevitably going to fail very fast due to people posting bad experiences.

It's also possible that someone has a good idea who the HYIP admin is and depending on what they have to say about this admin they can increase the number of people who join or completely halt the increase of new members.

If the HYIP doesn't have much of a reputation yet because it's too early, you could wait until you hear more about it or simply join based off of the other 4 major factors.

3. Earnings Gap Between Plans - I've seen plenty of HYIPs that look great right from the start but after more closely reviewing their plans I see that it can really make them far too risky.

Multiple plans are common among HYIPs and they typically involve giving higher earning percentages to the larger investors. This is very common and in fact can be helpful for a HYIP, but watch out to make sure the higher plans don't pay out too much more than the lowest plan.

This will keep you from getting into a HYIP that gets totally decimated when the couple largest investors decide to take out all their money.

4. Age of the HYIP - You must look at the age of a HYIP before investing. So many people out there will look to see what program is having the most success and then invest in it only to have it close down within the next couple days.

If the HYIP is too many days old your risk can greatly increase. It is best to try to enter very high paying HYIPs within the first couple days and for the lower paying HYIPs within the first handful of days. I'm avoiding specificity due to the fact that this completely depends on the type of HYIP.

The point is that it is a good idea to get into a HYIP as early as you feel comfortable getting in at. If you're happy with all the other factors and it looks promising get in then or don't get in at all.

5. HYIP Monitors - Basing your judgement off of HYIP monitors alone is a very bad idea but if you combine it with the other factors mentioned here it can help increase your odds of success.

If a HYIP is subscribed to at least a few Monitors then it is a good sign, if it is subscribed to a lot of Monitors or has paid for premium listings on a Monitor then it is a better sign. Conversely, if it is not subscribed to any monitors then you should be a little more wary.

Truthfully this factor doesn't weigh too heavily on my investment decisions but it can help push me one way or the other when I'm on the fence.

Summary

Using these five tips you will be able to choose HYIPs that are more likely to succeed and hopefully will become a more successful HYIP investor.

Remember that these 5 tips don't specifically apply to every type of HYIP but should still give you a good idea of what you may want to look into for any program that you join.

5th HYIP Investment

2006-07-29T15:05:00.000-07:00

I have just invested in HourlyTrust.com.

My stats:

Current eGold Balance: $119
Investment: $10
Percentage of Balance: $8.4%
New eGold Balance: $109

HT stats:

Started Jul 29, 2006
Running days 0
Total accounts 107
Active accounts 22
Total deposited $ 88.00
Total withdraw $ 1.0

I'm really looking forward to seeing how this does. I really don't have a doubt that this will last at least 2 days which is why I have invested in the 200% after 48 hours plan.

I will be posting my article later today as well as updating on my HYIPs.

4th HYIP Investment

2006-07-28T20:57:00.000-07:00

I have decided to invest in HyipoMagic.com

My stats:

*NOTE: I seemed to have messed up my last eGold balance update. After taking out all my $14.20 from ImpartialHYIP I added it to $125 (what is was BEFORE I invested the $10 into ImpartialHYIP to begin with) and in reality my balance was $115. So I have about $129 not $139. Sorry for the mistake.*

Current eGold Balance: $129
Investment: $10
Percentage of Balance: 7.8%
New eGold Balance: $119

HyipoMagic stats:

Started Jul 27, 2006
Running days 1
Total accounts 48
Active accounts 29
Total deposited $ 653.45
Today deposited $ 290.00
Total withdraw $ 59.55

The payout to deposit percentage is 9.1% which is about what you can expect for a HYIP this early on. I have invested in the 120% after 3 days. I did spend some time thinking about the 3 day investment vs. the 1 day investment and decided that the 3 day one was worth the extra risk.

This HYIP is somewhat like ImpartialHYIP. Although it isn't as perfect as I thought IH was HM still looks to be a very promising HYIP. The admin has also taken the time to apply to a ton of HYIP monitors so I don't believe he plans on scamming right away.

ImpartialHYIP Woes

2006-07-28T19:59:00.000-07:00

Yep that's right I'm really regreting getting out as early as I did but it's very nice to get some serious practice in emotional control because part of me wants to jump back in even though I know I can't do that.

Here are the recent stats:

Running days 4
Total accounts 354
Active accounts 227
Total deposited $ 13,589.95
Total withdraw $ 5,262.76

The payout to deposit ratio continues to hang around 40% which is pretty good and unexpected.

If you noticed when I first posted about ImpartialHYIP I stated that it was pretty much the perfect HYIP to join and this definitely became true and is very apparent now. I need to learn to trust my own picks a little more.

Due to this HYIP I will be tweaking my initial strategy a little bit to allow for keeping a little money in the program instead of pulling everything completely out as I have done here. This will depend on the type of HYIP as well.

HYIP Update

2006-07-28T19:58:00.000-07:00

SolaHYIP paid me again today.

SolaHYIP, Day 6

Active member: 306
Total deposits: $18213.1
Total payouts: $6836.23

Membership continues to increase very well and so do new investments. The payout to depost ratio increased a little more to 37.5% and is about what I'd expect for a HYIP at this stage.

AlpsFinance, Day 5

Available units = 0

Yes that's right the rest of the 1070 units have been sold out. It really is hard for me to believe and is very confusing but I guess a lot of people out there just really love this HYIP and I'm not complaining.

This is definitely very good. Now all there really is left to do is wait, I still have 10 days left before I'm paid. I'll update on AF if they start selling another round of units. If not, there really won't be anything else to discuss about AF until I'm paid.

Successful HYIP Investing... My First Article

2006-07-28T17:54:00.000-07:00

Just letting you guys know that I'm currently writing an article titled "5 Tips For Successful HYIP Investing". The idea for this came from a post on TG and I figured instead of making a basic, short reply on the forum, I'd write a whole, more detailed article about it.

I'll probably be posting it here sometime tomarrow then I will post it on TG and submit it to a bunch of article directories.

Hopefully this will help increase my traffic and bring in a larger following of people so I can start getting some comments and hear what others think.

Oh and I will be updating on my HYIPs later today, in a couple hours or so.

Update On Both Current HYIPs

2006-07-27T22:25:00.000-07:00

SolaHYIP paid me again today.

SolaHYIP, Day 5

Active member: 268
Total deposits: $11036.5
Total payouts: $3518.35

Membership is still increasing quite a bit which is great and the amount invested is really getting up there. The payout to deposit percentage shot up a decent amount to about 32% but I don't think it will take anymore big jumps from here.

AlpsFinance, Day 4

Available Units: 1070/4000

Although the number of new unit purchases didn't surpass the previous day as it has for the last couple days there were still 384 which is a lot of money being invested into AF.

This is still looking very good.

ImpartialHYIP

2006-07-27T20:36:00.000-07:00

After my withdraw yesterday I was paid within a few hours. Apparently the eGold fee wasn't as high as I expected and I only lost 20 cents of the $14.40. Here are my updated stats:

eGold Balance: $139
Programs Currently In: 2
Programs Profited from: 1
Total profit: $4.20
Programs Lost from: 0
Total loss: None

Looking at ImpartialHYIP today it appears to still be doing very good. I do regret getting out when I did but whenever investing in HYIPs is ALWAYS better to get out too early than to keep pushing your luck.

ImpartialHYIP

Running days	3
Total accounts	318
Active accounts	200
Total deposited	$ 11,914.74
Total withdraw	$ 4,461.21

The payout to deposit percentage actually decreased by a few percent from yesterday. I had entirely expected it to keep going up.

As you can probably see, I am not perfect at this yet but each HYIP win or lose will continue to add lots of helpful knowledge and experience. Hopefully you too can benefit from this.

These were my first results since starting this blog and I'm happy to say it was a success. The first of many that I'm expecting to see implementing my strategy.

Withdrawing From ImpartialHYIP

2006-07-26T21:27:00.000-07:00

Although I do feel that IH could easily survive for another day under perfect circumstances, it is impossible to tell what a HYIP admin will do and when/if they will run with the money.

So due to this uncertainty I will be withdrawing my full amount from ImpartialHYIP. This is $14.40.

I started with a $10 investment and increased that to $13.68 (after eGold fees). This is about a 37% ROI in only 2 days.

This just shows how profitable HYIPs can really be if modest profits are taken. For example this would be around an 8x higher return in 363 less days than any bank could return on your money.

I will continue to follow IH just to obtain more information and experience.

I will also update you when my investment is officially in my eGold account.

Investment Update

2006-07-26T20:41:00.000-07:00

Well I ended up spending some time looking for another good program today but didn't find anything even remotely promising.

As for my current 3 HYIPs, everything is still looking great. I was paid by SolaHYIP and ImpartialHYIP.

SolaHYIP, Day 4

Active member: 176
Total deposits: $9014.5
Total payouts: $1098.5

Membership is still growing and the deposits are still shooting up. The payout to deposit percentage is still at a relatively small 12.2%.

AlpsFinance, Day 3

Available Units: 1454/4000

Wow, the amount of new unit purchases are still hugely increasing. First day it was 88, then it was 239, now since yesterday there has been 510 units purchased. This is very, very great.

I believe this may have something to do with recent, expensive advertising on MMG.

ImpartialHYIP, Day 2

Running days 2
Total accounts 264
Active accounts 166
Total deposited $ 6,984.33
Total withdraw $ 2,850.48

The membership only increased about 33% which still isn't too bad and the total deposits have essentially doubled.

That being said, the payout to deposit percentage has increased to 40.8%.

I will update you shortly on whether or not I will be revinvesting and why.

Update On HYIPs

2006-07-25T20:06:00.000-07:00

So far it appears all three of my HYIPs are doing well. Was paid by SolaHYIP and ImpartialHYIP.

SolaHYIP, Day 3:

Active member: 155
Total deposits: $6589.5
Total payouts: $598.45

Membership didn't increase too drastically but new investments are still going up really fast and the payout to deposit percentage fell back down to 9%. So far so good, the real breakthrough point will be at day 10.

AlpsFinance, Day 2:

Available Units = 1964/4000

Wow! 239 new units were bought since yesterday. This is a huge increase from the last update and shows that AF is still very popular and is looking to be a very good investment.

ImpartialHYIP, Day 1:

Running days 1
Total accounts 204
Active accounts 124
Total deposited $ 3,563.83
Total withdraw $ 779.37

So far so good with IH. The payout to deposit percentage is only at a modest 21.8% and new accounts increased by about 175%.

I will be reinvesting my profits for at least one more day. Lets just see how it goes.

New HYIP Investment

2006-07-24T20:27:00.000-07:00

Well I wasn't actually planning on joining a new HYIP tonight but I was scanning through the TG banners, selecting programs, looking what they offered, and researching them and I managed to come across the seemingly very good ImpartialHYIP.com.

This program just started today July 24th and offers sensible plans (for what I'm looking for anyway) while having a very large member and investment base for having just started.

I feel that this is just the type of HYIP I am looking for and will be investing $10.

Program Stats:

Started: Jul 24, 2006
Total accounts: 116
Active accounts: 75
Total deposited: $ 1,102.67
Total withdraw: $ 9.37

My Stats:

eGold Balance: $125
Percentage to Invest: 8%
Total Investment: $10

I will invest in Plan 1, 120% after 1 day.

This HYIP is much faster paced than the other two so stay tuned to see what happens.

Update On HYIP Investments

2006-07-24T18:59:00.000-07:00

SolaHYIP:

I was paid again today, number 2 of 60.

Active member: 135
Total deposits: $4158.5
Total payouts: $407.5

SolaHYIP is still growing quite rapidly, especially in the amount of investments. Membership increased by over 150% and the total invested almost doubled.

The percent of payouts to deposits is still under 10% which is a good plus because it supports the good member and investment growth.

AlpsFinance:

Available Units = 2203/4000

88 more units were purchased since yesterday which is pretty good and shows continued growth for this program.

Not much else to say about AF except that they have a good following of positive people who successfully invested and profited in their first round of investments. This is a great thing for any program.

My Next HYIP Investment... AlpsFinance

2006-07-23T21:12:00.000-07:00

I have decided to join AlpsFinance.com.

This doesn't fit in perfectly with my strategy but it had a very successful and well praised first round of investing and has a great vibe for it coming from the forums.

I also received a tip from a friend (a very experienced and intelligent HYIP investor) that this investment would have a higher probability than usual of being successful.

Based of this and the fact that they have a great site and concept and run their program professionally, I have decided to invest.

They started June 4th and I am investing today July 23rd. Their stats are as follows:

2nd Release From July 17th
2,291 Out of 4,000 Units Still Available For This Release

My stats:

eGold Balance: $135
Percentage to Invest: 7.4%
Total Investment: $10

They only have one plan that pays 150% after 15 days. Each unit costs $10.

Update On SolaHYIP And A New Program

2006-07-23T10:30:00.000-07:00

Well so far, just one day after investing, SolaHYIP is doing great. Here are today's stats:

Active member: 89
Total deposits: $2368
Total payouts: $208.5
Latest update: July 23,2006
Started date: July 20,2006

The number of members doubled and the percentage of payouts to deposits actually shrunk which is a very good sign. Payouts are now only 8.7% of total deposits as opposed to 13% yesterday.

So far I'm very satisfied with the investment I made yesterday.

Now, it would be completely pointless for me to just sit and wait and do nothing until I get all my payouts from SolaHYIP so I am currently looking into a couple other different programs.

One HYIP is quite a bit different from SolaHYIP but due to its continuing success and some expert advice I will probably be investing in it.

Stay tuned. I will reveal my decision later today.

First HYIP Investment Choice

2006-07-22T17:58:00.000-07:00

The first program I have invested in is SolaHYIP.com.

They started July 20th and I am investing today, July 22nd. The site stats are as follows:

Active members: 43
Total deposits: $1031.5
Total payouts: $135.5

My stats are as follows:

eGold Balance: $150
Percentage to Invest: 10%
Total Investment: $15

They have two plans. One that pays out 10% daily. And one that pays out 250% after 10 days. Due to the great reward offered by the second plan I will be putting $5 in there but not my whole amount becuase it is much riskier than the first plan.

The first plan I will put my remaining $10 in and since this site pays out automatically I will let it run for as long as it can although I doubt it will be the full 60 day period it states.

My Basic Plan For This HYIP/Autosurf Strategy Blog

2006-07-22T12:17:00.000-07:00

I have decided to start with only a mere $150 in eGold and intend to greatly increase this money over the next year. If I can do it truly anyone can you just have to know what you're doing.

Unfortunately due to my minimal startup my Money Management won't be as good as I'd like it to be but it certainly will still be within reason.

When I choose a program I will explain a little bit about it, what investment I plan to make and maybe point out a few reasons why I chose that certain program.

When I pick a program I will list my current egold amount and the percent of that I plan on investing. After I get out I will list my new egold amount and my total profit or loss.

I will also be tracking the programs stats and payouts on a regular basis.

Because eGold levels constantly flucuate it can make this a little difficult but for simplicities sake all fluctuations and eGold fees will be combined with my profits/losses and may be rounded off to some extent.

I am looking into a couple different programs at the moment. I make an update within the next day or two.

Applying Serious Strategy To HYIPs and Autosurfs For Profit

2006-07-22T10:35:00.000-07:00

This is GoldBullionaire here and I am starting this blog simply to keep track of my results in the world of HYIP/Autosurf.

I have been immersed within this world for around 3 years now and have experienced nearly every type of program out there including many various HYIPs and Autosurfs. Along with this I have experienced lots of loss but also some profit too. In fact my last few months have been very successful since I had been somewhat following the all out strategy I'm going for now.

Through my experience, research, and advising from individuals making great amounts of money exploiting this world, I have come up with my own strategy for reaping profits from the HYIP/Autosurf world.

There are many factors involved in my strategy including good money management and emotional control as well as other things that very few people out there take advantage of.

I don't plan on telling my plan but should my strategy succeed, the proof will be here right in this blog and I may end up selling my strategy (maybe not though since my profit is made from the average and typical HYIP/Autosurf investor). Now if it fails (which really isn't too likely although I'm sure you probably doubt my confidence) I guess there probably won't be anyone ever reading this anyway.

That basically sums it up. I will begin researching programs and posting when I make deposits and get paid and other major events.

It will probably be very slow going as far as posts in the beginning but as my money increases and I branch out to more and more programs, my activity will increase. Hopefully within 6-12 months I will have established that my strategy works and be able to gain acceptance as an expert in the field of HYIP/Autosurf.

Stay tuned.
