I did a search before posting and nothing showed up. The system isn't perfect and I guess it balances out over time, at least a little. I've had my post, ideas and original content duplicated by others hours, days, weeks, months later and watched them earn around $50,000 since I've been here. The latest one earned $5,500+ to my $80 for just rehashing my story hours later. There were no mourners when it happened to me.

I don't feel bad for you since you just gave your self a 3 dollar pay out for responding to me.
I think I'll give myself another $3+ for investing early in an awesome platform! :)
Oh man, that felt so good ... why not another!?

How does that work exactly? New here, really interesting site, but I still haven't got my head wrapped fully around the concepts.
Why stop there, here Tuck, have some more!
I just gave you guys about $3.00. That felt gooooood!
