Most, if not all of us, has probably already heard about yuwie. The social networking site that's taking the internet by storm. Quite a number of Myloters are even there already.
With the massive publicity and referral drive going on, the most pressing question at the back of everyone's mind right now is, will yuwie pay?
Will yuwie be able to live up to its promise of paying its users back, or will it be another sham?
What do you guys think about this?

Truthfully the pay out is set very high on that site and you have to make that before you can even cash out.. Personally I didn't go there to make money I went there to make friends.. Kind of like myspace.. I do more on myspace than I do at yuwie... Rather it's a scam or not or will it be I can't say for sure.. But having the payout set that high to me doesn't look very good.. Just my oppion!

I just went back to Yuwie and noticed they dropped the payout 25.00 so i think people are able to make the payout.. I am not sure though but like i said before I am there to make friends and get to know people just like here at mylot than really the money that to me is just an extra bonus!

Thanks for the input, ms.wisconsin. I suppose if you put it that way, then you'll be rewarded, money-wise or not. Still, the idea of enjoying the same experience that we experience in myspace or friendster with the incentive of being paid for simply that, is quite motivating. I surely do hope they'll fulfill their promise though.

i just treat it as a socializing website with rewards. money or no money, i will be using it since i already got so many new friends there. Revenue sharing rate forecasted to drop this october, but i know with good intention and purpose of the site, it will recover in the next coming month.

Thanks, gepong2000. If I were to come up with a similar model of pay-to websites, I'd love to have members like you. The type who aren't necessarily there for the money alone.

I read about Yuwie a while ago and learned that it is a social networking site like Friendster and Facebook; but compared with the latter, Yuwie allegedly pays.
Basically, these details are just the ones I know of this site you mentioned here. Admittedly, I'm not a member of Friendster, nor Facebook because I'm not the type of individual who would like to socialize. No offense meant to anyone, but I'm a self-confessed homebody. I'd rather stay at home and declutter the house or spend quality time with my own family specially with our own daughter or have a movie marathon than socialize with neighbors or meet up with friends.
But if anyone has a proof of payment from this Yuwie site, I guess I will have to think about being a member of that site now. Indeed, my purpose and priority would be to gain more income from there. I'm also interested in knowing the truth about their allegations because somehow, it may help me and my own family specially in these crisis-stricken times.
Anyway, I've learned from other posts that it's quite difficult to reach payout there, or even reach a meager 1 centavo in dollars. If this is true, I guess I'd better stick it out with mylot.

I'm also a member of Yuwie. I love the opportunity to create an Income. Please Understad its all about Positioning yourself to gain an Income. Now, If Yuwie never pays no problem for me. In the process of growing i've gained Leads for my business and gained many friends. What are you missing out on? As soon as money has something to do with it and you don't get it, people want to start saying its a scam. You started with nothing(Money) and at least you will gain friends if not money. Where is the HURT.
