Over at College Startup I wrote an article this morning entitled Five Effective Ways To Re-Invest Your Profits. The basic point of that post is that the best way to become rich off the Internet is to slowly exchange roles with your money: put your money to do the work that you used to do.

Writing that article got me wondering what the average blogger does with his or her earnings. Do you keep 100% and use it for spending money? Do you reinvest 30% and keep 70% as salary? Or vice versa?

So let's use the comment section to share our personal strategies for handling the money we get as (pro)bloggers. I think it will be helpful to all of us to get a picture of how other bloggers use their earnings and maybe "borrow" a few tips;-)

May 2007 is behind us and the time has come to payout for our pMetrics referrals and front page articles. We were excited to see that several pMetrics affiliates got to our payout levels in just the first full month of the program! Great job. Keep the great work.

Until we come up with a better tracking system, I'm going to request that all members who had articles promoted to the front page in May send me an invoice via private message. Please include 1) article title and 2) article link in the private message.

Thanks again, and I hope that we get to pay even more of our members next month!
