being a moderator here was so profitable,such a worthy use of my time that I quit and rejected the Elite title as well.

I did manage to get a lovely photoshop of me in my wedding dress covered in cum though.

Well, I am now a mod there. I told them I didn't expect compensation at the start. They offer a pay service on their site though and they gave me a complimentary subscription to it. A nice gesture.

OK, the site is gurufocus.com. It is a value investing web site where people that try to invest "like Buffet". Truth is, I think that I'l end up learning more by being more diligent about reading the various discussions. Becoming a better investor is also part of the compensation in my view.

I am a moderator for Sudhian/SFFTech and all I get is headaches. ;)

I use to get some swag when I was a hardware reviewer, but that dried up a couple years ago.
