180 days and my moneys GONE?!

[jmccaskill]

I agree with most of the other responders, you can reach a proper cash out amount in every month if you put in a little effort. Certainly you could do that in 90 days almost in your sleep. So you really should not be concerned about the 180 day 'rule'... its purpose is probably to weed out those that don't really care to be active participants here. After all, FC is a BUSINESS and they have a responsibility to those that use them to get their surveys out to provide a 'live audience' that wants to take their offers.

Best of luck, just get busy for just a few days and I think you will discover the wonderful potential you have here. Ain't gonna make you rich but it is a good source for some realistic 'pocket money' or to supplement your income a bit. AND it is FUN to be here!!

if its going to be some time before you are completeing offers id stop and cashout before hand

Okay, the 180 day thing isn't as scary as you think it is.  Here's an example.  Say you do your PTC every day.  Your account page will show something like this.

Paid To Click - 05/10/2013   2013-05-10  $0.15  Approved
Paid To Click - 05/09/2013   2013-05-09  $0.15  Approved

Each offer has a 180 day limit.  So, you don't lose all of your earnings, just those that are older than 180 days. So, if one expires, it will look like this.  I don't have the exact look in front of me, but this should give you an idea.

Paid To Click - 05/10/2013   2013-05-10  $0.15  1 day left
Paid To Click - 05/09/2013   2013-05-09  $0.15  Expired


Secondly, as someone else pointed out, 180 days is about 6 months.  If you do just a little math, I can show how you don't need that entire time to cashout.  PTC ($0.15), email ($0.02), videos ($0.01), searches (~$0.05), RadioLoyalty ($0.01 every 10 min), Payment bonus ($1), and posting bonus ($3) together are enough to cash out in that period.

PTC alone is enough to cashout.  Technically, you only need 167 days to cashout with PTC alone.
0.15 X 180 = $27
0.15 X 167 = $25.05

Let's add in the email as well, so we earn 17 cents a day.  With 17 cents, it will take about 148 days.
0.17 X 148 = $25.16

Now, let's say you get your posting bonus, that's $3 extra dollars that you don't have to earn towards that $25 limit.  Obviously, you still need the $15 in offers, but that means that $10 can come from bonuses.  So, your $3 posting bonus is helpful for the first 3 months and then just adds up afterwards.  So, let's say it takes 3 months.  That's 3 posting bonuses and about 93 days of PTC and email credits.
($3 X 3) + (0.17 X 93) = $9 + $16.32 = $25.32

So, that's just some basic examples to show that you don't need all that time to earn it.  Doing these three basic things, you can see that earning $25 is nothing in the grand scheme of things.  That means that anything in addition to those 3 things will allow you to cash out quicker.

It's so funny how easily we become consumed by fear, all because we fail to grasp the reasons why we can.
Even in my worse days I haven't suffered loss from the 180 day monster... It won't take you 5 months to make $25
Believe in your abilities. Happy earnings!!

I took an extended break from Fusion Cash when I was pregnant and after I had my son.  You aren't supposed to have a laptop on you pregnant, so I was tired of being hunched over and uncomfortable and then didn't have the time once he was born.  I just recently came back and realized after scratching my head for a while why it was saying I made $3 more than I seemed to have.  Well my forum bonus came in during that almost year long break and since I never checked back in, it expired.  My suggestion is, if you are planning on taking a break, taper off for the month and check back in once or twice over the next month or two, and then cash out.  Any pending money should come in within that time and then you should be safe to cash out and not worry about checking back until you come back to your senses like me.    After seeing the increased availability in tasks and the new additions, I regret taking a break.  Even if you only put in an hour a week, you will more than make cashout by the time your money expires.

i think fc does thart to just keep us active..just watch your time and you wont lose your money

[christina605]

i don't have the ttime to put into all the surveys and after two weeks i am already only 1.00 away from a cashout! so it must be super easy to make money with this site. very excited about this since i am new here as well.

[vickysue]

I cash out about every 2 months as i am not on the computer all the time. Usally about 30-40 dollars when i do . Great site.

[am28slone]

Yes in the beginning when I was a newbie on here and didn't fully understand the site. I lost some initial earnings because I really didn't study the site and lost earnings because some went past the 180 days. However, now that I know I try to stay on top and make sure I am cashing out.

[Garydh]

Newbies, especially should re watch the tutorial. I did several times, before I started to understand it. I guess I am a little slow. But yes there is the 180 day limit. If you are over 25.00, start looking to cash out, especially if you don't get on FusionCash but just once in a while. I have not been on for I think 3 days. So therefore I try to catch up on my posting like this one, and hopefully to help other FusionCash members, as well as learn other things that are paying well from other seasoned members. Remember to post at least 30 before the month is out to earn an extra 3.00. That can help put you closer to cashing out.

I don't think you understand, go back and read it again

[sanglee]

me too, I was clicking offers and all of a sudden it started to eat up my offers from the bottom up in red in my account page, and I finally figured it out, you have to cash out within a time period, once it starts to eat it up you have to do bigger offers if you want to stay in stride

[dagarza22]

I was thinking the same way as you.  I felt that what if I couldn't reach the $25 minimum requirement in 180 days.  But as you can see with all the people in the forum they've had success so why can't we.  It takes work, but it's possible.  If we can contribute a little bit of our time each day it can be done. I'm definitely going to work at it. FC is too good of an opportunity to let the money expire in 180 days.

[Mojoshog]

Yes the key is to be consistent and do a little each day and you won't be in that boat. As others have said it is only the offers that go over the 180 days that you lose so that is when you have to try to do more to speed things up. The daily tasks, Paid to call, surveys or purchases and trials are things that come to my mind. Also the forum promotions and videos can help to accelerate your earnings so your older offers do no continue to expire. FC makes it easy to see what's expiring so that should help you gauge how much you need to do.

[Azanne07]

it wont wipe out all at once. they will expired slowly.
