Today
Associated Content finally updated their performance bonus page view statistics, after a month or so without an update. The good news is that I moved up another "Clout Level" to level six (out of ten, woot!) due to the large number of articles and page views that I have generated since becoming one of their content producers. Also because of this large number of page views (12,574 to date), I finally qualify for the performance bonus payment. Sometime during the next performance bonus cycle I will receive $18.86 in residuals from the
various articles I have written. Thanks to all of you who have taken the time to read
my various articles here at SeeMeGetRich.com and on Associated Content. $18.86 is nothing to write home about (although it seems to be enough to blog about!), but it is still money that is being generated automatically with no extra effort on my part. And, of course, that $18.86 is going directly into my Roth IRA just as soon as I receive the payment.

Hmm... Okay... Well, I was thinking about writing some articles. The $4 or $5 per article didn't interest me that much but the potential residuals did perhaps. I think you've effectively dissauded me. I'm not knocking it, but that's an awful lot of work to earn $18/mo. A part time job would net that in 3 to 4 hours of work per month, eh?
Don't count on getting that whole $18.86. I qualified last time but the total I got and the total on my page were off by about $5. After poking around on the message board I read that it is a 'known issue' that the page view bonus number is not completely accurate. It's a bummer, but I wanted to warn you.
$4-$5 per article may not be spectacular, but when that $4-$5 is for an article that took a whopping ten minutes, it doesn't look too bad. I do a lot of restaurant and product reviews, and those take practically no time to crank out. And the performance bonus is just extra money without any extra work. I don't know of any part time job that allows you to earn money for no additional work!
just stumbled across your site and just wanted to let you know i enjoyed your perspective on saving and personal fiannce.
