Don't leave your e-gold idle. Here's an idea.

Many of us would have some e-gold funds around. Maybe, we may think the amount is too small to invest. You probably have 10 USD and below.
Here's an idea. Don't leave these funds to idle. Make full use of them. What you can do is to invest in some sites that allow little minimum investments. It is better to keep growing that small amount than to just leave them to idle in your account.
Does this make sense to you?
Here's one you can invest where they pay you 2% daily for 100 days i.e. you get back 200% eventually. I did that and just broke even this week. Small money but at least my e-gold did not sleep.

Troybank is already not paying interest. They are saying that the bank is under investigation and today even the site is not working. All HYIP are ponzi scams which pay the first few people to get more suckers into the scheme. Anyway mylotters are lucky, becuase if the link was posted one month ago, so many would have parted with their hard earned mylot cash.

You guys are doing great to trigger warnings when they are needed. When I posted this link, troybank was still paying. Since I did not get my last payment, like everyone elses, let's consider this a scam site. My apologies to those who followed my link. Anyway, on checking at my account, no one did joined under me, so I consider that one one was affected by me.

The problem with this type of site is that they are often unethical, the 2% daily that you get usually comes from other people who invest, and when the money runs out then people at the end lose out. (I'm not saying that this is true in every case, but there are many sites around that do this and usually close down after a few months).
I would read the terms and conditions very carefully and also try and find out where the money comes from that pays out. I cannot think where anyone would be able to earn 2% a day in interest. (I take it that you don't get your investment back as well, so the 2% will include some return of your capital as well?).
I note that Troybank claims to have been in business since 1996, if this is true then they have at least had a lot of continuity.

We are lucky. Troybank is closed already and telling its memebers it is temporary due to an investigation. Anyway no one getting any interest. It was most probably the longest standing ponzi scam.

thanks for sharing this. unfortunately, i've had too many bad experiences with HYIPs to risk getting scammed again. the problem with hyips is you could never tell when they'd stop paying. some would start really strong, paying their investors religiously and all that, then all of a sudden, they'd just stop with their operations.

What you said is true of 99.99 percent of hyips. No matter how reliable they looked, their actual funds come from the members who invested later. The latecomers are the victims in most cases.

Well, I didn't know that. Thanks for informing us. I'll try to look at the link you stated. Besides, it's better to lose than not tried at all.

Since there have been some recent write ups about Troybank, not for the good of it, I would also ask all of you not to follow my link. But, there are many other investment links to also look at.
The idea is not to be my referral. The picture I want to really bring across is that we do not waste off our egold. They could potentially bring us back fortunes no matter how little right now.

Thanks for the information. This is very good idea to improve the financial condition. I'm into this kind of scenario more than six month, so what did i have discovered that the site you are recommending some time they are not reliable to invest as their previous record is showing to me. That the Bank have the scam reports by the users.So please try to get the update about the site.Is it really paying or just getting money and running away.

This is really a good idea, but if you do invest your money in some program, you must choose some genuine and not a long-term based program. To everybody's knowledge, many sites shut down as well as many others carry out, no one can tell what will happen after a long time, so the longer term what the program you have invested in need, the more risk to your money. To avoid being scammed, you should invest in some reputable programs.
