2009 so far...

I'm the first to admit my HYIP activities in 2009 have been below par. Maybe it's because at the end of 2008 I had so many programs "pending" that I was just waiting for them to pay out. Actually, that is still the case, and it's early june already.

So don't trust all the program links on the right verbatim. I wil be updating them as soon as I have new info and found new reliable (for as long as they are) programs. I can tell you though that the only one that has been reliably paying me all these months is GNI, the arbitrage betting site. I have only $100 in, but it's a steady $6 per week which is more than all the other scammers pay me.

I'm out now searching for the next GNI then... keep checking back (if even twice a year) :-)
P.S. Yes I liked Michael Jackson's music too...

2008 roundup

So far, in aggregate, 2008 has been a good year. Despite the losses in Megalido and a few others, my main program Centasia Development has made up for more than all of that. Also, YouMilex.com has, and still is, performing beautifully. Especially when you consider that they have a cap of $1000 per investment, still, that is an impressive accomplishment.

Bad apples were e.g. PrivateOffshoreCapital.com, a surfsite that didn't even make it through their first 12-day cycle. Such a shame, it looked so solid and people liked it very much. Also UniCreditInvest (Ingrid Bauer) vanished, 2 days after taking my first deposit (she was waiting for it I tell you). A semi-private program I am a member of has been stalling payment for months now, I got a few hundred $$ pending. Likewise, CyncoTrade has virtually stopped payment, though my inside sources tell me that things should get worked out before March. That would be another few hundred coming my way.

On the "piggy bank" side, there are a few long-term programs that I put some money in. Hopefully in a few months they will generate nice payments. Specifically, I'm talking about Safeatom.com and NoRiskInvestment.net . 150 day plans take patience, but the payout will be grand, if it comes. Safeatom is well known, NoRiskInvestment isn't, but they give quite a bit of (personal) info about themselves, including even passport photos of the traders. Fake or not, they are going the extra mile, which I like.

I'll be frank, without Centasia things might look quite different. I hope they will stay around for quite a while, while I'm searching for new programs. I got a few on the radar and will be posting about them here as soon as they pass my personal due dilligence test :-)

Here's to a great 2009!

YouMilex.com added

Yes, a real HYIP, but I like the site layout, graphics, the whole look and feel, and last but not least the returns. YouMilex.com pays 25% profit in 10 days, and if the admin is willing and able this site could last for a long time. The script he uses is not the cheapest one around, and comes with support for the owner, so this one is not designed to hit-and-run.

Also, for those who like verified processors, YouMilex.com accepts not only Liberty Reserve as usual, but also Alertpay and SolidTrustPay. Strictpay is in the works, so I'm told.

Currently there is a $1000 cap per deposit. Any scammer would get as much money in as possible, but everything in this program looks like it's designed for the long term.

Admin is very responsive, I have sent 2 mails and both got answered promptly and to my full satisfaction.
I have more questions out, and will keep watching this one. I have some money in and if they prove themselves, I will surely upgrade with more!

Surfs added

I vowed never to surf again. But when you are looking for reliable programs, and they turn out to be surfs, what's a man to do? Right. Be a man, and surf :-)

The first one I added was Alvarosurf. The reason is that the Admin, Dennis, not only has a great reputation in the field, but also I personally had a few chats with him and he seems to be a no-nonsense guy, aimed at getting results. And I like that. So - I'm surfing Alvaro everyday, and I already have been handsomely paid twice. Payouts are done 48 hours after expiry like clockwork.

Then Surf2Sawa was added to my portfolio. All the forums and blogs are raving about it so I dumped a small amount into it. I'm still not at breakeven but so far it's looking good.

Last but not least I took a shot at MegaLido. Everyone and their grandmother is in that one, and they are doing great promotion all over the internet. So I thought it's safe for a few rounds. My first round got paid within a few hours, and I got a mid-3 figure spend in now.

Of all of these, Alvarosurf is my favorite, because I trust the Admin and the returns are good. They have a non-surf plan too, by the way, but it takes longer to get the returns. So better surf those few sites and get paid more, because that is what we're here for, right?

Centasia Development, a unique program

Brief message to tell you I joined Centasia Development. Check out the site and see what I mean! More to come!

Here's the "more":

This is a site unlike you ever seen before. This is a quote from their site:

Centasia Development is a leader in the construction, mineral extraction, and natural gas warehousing fields in the Central Asian republics. Providing both funding and management solutions for government contracts involving the exploitation and warehousing of the vast untapped resources of these territories, Centasia is a fast paced conglomerate in a leadership position in the region.

Invest with security and stability, as Centasia is now open to the public for additional funding sources. With your investment compiled into our construction and resource development capital pool, we will continue to help develop the Central Asia of the 21st Century!

Ok, some information on the plans. They offer:

5.85% for 21 days, automatic compounding available, $5 to $200
3.97% for 35 days, automatic compounding available, $100 to $10K
21% for 10 weeks, automatic compounding available, $100 to $10K

The compounding can be set from 0% to 100%, all automatic.
There is a calculator that you can enter the desired numbers and
see what you'll get.

They take Liberty Reserve at the moment only.

Interesting take on referral commissions - 6% on your own, but also
3% and 1% on members below them.

Maybe best; members are being paid! I will post my payments here,
should start tomorrow.

There is an active PR person, Carita Karppinen, answering members
emails. Also they have a forum inside their site where Mikhail
Sorvenyubodov, Senior Investor Relations Manager and a few other
staff members communicate directly with members.

Go check it out if you haven't already :-)

Program added: FXExcellent.com

After looking around for a "new" program to jump into, I selected FXExcellent.com. It could be gone tomorrow, as could be all HYIPS, but there actually is no reason why this program could not grow very very big.

First, the plans. Look at this:

110% after 10 days (that is 1% per day)
130% after 20 days (that is 1.5% per day)
200% after 50 days (that is 2% per day)
Minimum for all plans $10

Now, even as a scam ponzy hyip, these rates are sustainable for a long time. Since this program has currently 9 monitor sites monitoring it, to me that means that it is planning to be around for a while. Knowing that, it's not bad to be in from day one. Or day 2, actually.

Then, the Admin is very responsive, I sent mail and the answer came within half an hour. It seemed to me Admin welcomed the interaction and is open to questions.

Based on this I decided to go ahead and put in a spend.

Luxemburg Investment

How could I have missed this one? Active for so long and such great rates! All I can say is check it out and don't be put off by the bad english as I was. Performance is all that counts!
*UPDATE* I see why I missed out - they don't give principle back, as I thought. 27.6% times 4 is 110.4% including principle. I got my first payout pending, let's see how long it takes to get out.
