any cha cha's?

Rachel D Wentz @camomom (7535) • United States 10 Nov 08

Do you work for chacha? What position do you work? I'm an expeditor and my fiance is a guide. Have you noticed a decline in questions coming through? They limited the number of questions to 20 a month now and it seems like it's...

houdini16409 I am a exbiditor for ChaCha and my husband is a guide. I think the slowness has a little to do with the 20 question limit, but I am sure the majority of it has to do with their server. They are constantly having problems. It is frustrating for me because both...

mamacathie @mamacathie (3928) • United States 12 Jun 08

I just read this on a discussion and now I cannot find it again. What exactly is this kind of program? Is it like Review Stream or is it something totally different. I might be very interested if someone can explain this to me....

houdini16409 Review stream pays anywhere from 40 cents to $2 a review. The minimum payout is $50 via your paypal account. I write a lot for them, but I make more money off of their voting program. Every time people vote for your article you get paid 10 cents. I belong to a...

loved1 @loved1 (5328) • United States 16 Nov 07

I finally figured it all out! After years of going shopping on Black Friday and spending hours standing in line (and wasting those precious shopping moments) my daughter and I came up with the perfect solution. She is 12 and is...

houdini16409 This is the first year that I get to teach my daughter about Black Friday, she is three. Yes, I know, I am starting at a young age. It sounds like a lot of fun, I loved to go out and shop too. I work retail and I had to lie to them because I refuse to work...

houdini16409 To me it all depends on the topic. I try to make them to the point, but if I can answer the question in one sentence, I will try to eleaborate a little. I have heard you were paid based on the length of your response so I try and keep that in mind. I would say...

making money with a game you don't play

mistissa @mistissa (1349) • Netherlands 9 Nov 07

Hello everyone, today I came across a concept that I have to sign up for a membership. I can choose which membership I want, the cheapest is $4,95. People will play the game and when they win I get a percentage of the money...

houdini16409 I wouldn't belong to it because there is a lot of websites out there where you can play games for money and it doesn't cost you a penny. On the other hand, it isn't costing you a lot of money so you can always try it for a month or two and see if you get your...

houdini16409 I haven't really noticed a difference in my account money yet. Sometimes they go through and weed out articles that may have not got any responses, perhaps this was it. I am not sure.

gadget_kat @gadget_kat (412) • United States 6 Jul 07

I just checked our mail. Oh boy! Our auto insurance is canceled! I made a payment last week, but I guess it wasn't enough to keep it in force. The kids are out of school, and constantly hungry. Our car is falling apart and we...

houdini16409 Sorry you are in this position, I have been in it before, and it is not fun. Maybe it is possible for one of you to pick up a side job, just to keep the food on the table and get caught up on the bills.

How many posts did you require to get your first payout?

jade1986 @jade1986 (563) • India 5 Jul 07

How many posts did you require to make your first $10? I have made it around 400 but not yet made the payout. I think people generally require around 500 posts to earn their first payout. Many people have got their payouts and are...

houdini16409 I think that it all depends on the quality of your posts. I figure I typically earn over a penny post, so I will not have to get to 500 before I reach payout. I have been here a couple of months now, but I am no where near payout because I have been so busy...
