This seems to happen too often to be just a fluke...or maybe not, I dunno...but yeah, I have a couple of sponsors with whom I made one sale almost immediately, then nothing. Nothing! Of course, I continue sending a trickle of traffic, hoping I can reach that whopping $50 or $100 minimum payout...hey, money is money.

I'm gradually training myself to grow out of that mindset, realizing that there's a good chance I'm being shaved to the quick and wasting more money trying to get that one check than I could be making elsewhere. Still, it sucks to be ripped off, whether it's for $5 or $5000. (Yes, I am a tightwad, lol.)
