Paid Email Sites?

Has anyone had any joy (or otherwise!) with these sites? Anyone actually made any money from them?

What the general consensus?

Also any ones to recommend, or avoid like the plague??

Any advice appreciated!!

I think paid to read e-mail is a waste of time.

You will make more money for your time with surveys!

Another slant

I feel it's true that Paid Email is a waste of time for anyone but the little old ladies who have nothing else to do and will click forever to earn a few bucks.

But is it possible that thinking outside the box may uncover some significant income there? What if you could harness that work force on YOUR behalf?

There's a fairly new website that pays way more than paid email does for less activity and provides more outlet for these little old ladies with nothing to do.

By running ads in the Paid Email programs where they are (very cheap) it's pretty easy to get them to try it, and you make 25% of what they do for referring them.

I only discovered this niche a few days ago, but it's paying off already and the potential is huge.

So why would I spill the beans to you? Simple, if I get you to duplicate what I'm doing, I get 25% of what you earn including all the money you make from the little old ladies you get to work under you.

Oh, did I mention this is all free, both for you and the little old ladies you find. This means very little resistance because it's zero risk. Tell them to get a fresh free email box and if they decide they don't like it, just dump it.

So how long can this last? They have lots of Google AdSense and other pay per click ads on the site, so it depends on how often people click them and keep the money flowing to pay everyone. I do my part.
