time.

> > Now the WHY part:

> >

> >    Out of 200 postings, say I receive only 5 replies (a

> >very low example). So then I made $5.00 with my name at #5

> >#4 and only 5 persons respond to eachh of the original 5,

> >that is another $25.00 for me, now those 25 each make

> >200 MINIMUM postswith my name at #3 and only 5 replies

> >each, I will bring in an additional $125.00! Now, those 125

> >persons turn around and post the MINIMUM 200with my name at

> >#2 and only receive 5 replies each, I will make an

> >additional $626.00! OK, now here is the fun part, each of

> >those 625 persons post a MINIMUM 200 letters with my name

> >at #1 and they each only receive 5 replies, that just made

> >me $3,125.00!!! With a original investment of only $5.00!

> >AMAZING! And as I said 5 responses is actually VERY LOW!

> >Average is probable 20 to 30! So lets put those figures at

> >just 15 responses per person. Here is what you will make:

> >

> >    at #5 $15.00

> >

> >    at #4 $225.00

> >

> >    at #3 $3,375.00

> >

> >    at #2 $50,625.00

> >

> >    at #1 $759,375.00

> >

> > When your name is no  longer on the list, you just take
