How many sponsors do you use

I guess even 1-3 means spreading it too thinly!

Like Tommy and Greenguy I have been burned in the past by some bad companies, so I try to spread it a bit more - I guess currently it's around 20.

But then I take also other things into account:
- how long does it take me to learn how to sell a sponsor?
- bank charges: sponsors who don't allow to set a minimum payout usually get dumped. $10 bank fees for overseas checks (+ my time to bank the fucker) eats too much into a $100 payment.

These 2 issues quite often stop me from signing up! Plus I really like to see advertising material before I make up my mind!
