This is for those people who think that all get paid to.. programs are crap and they dont pay. Well thats not true. I got paid..just yesterday by one of these. And I know of many many people who got paid too. I spent almost 3-4 months of the various get paid to.. programs like paid surfing, paid surveys..blah blah blah. Nothing happened. I never tried get paid to read emails. Simply because it was not a get -rich- quickly.
I later on went to this site, get paid forum which is like mouthshut where people can post their messages about their experiences. But the subject is get paid to programs. There I came to know that people earn by paid emails. Its not too fast. It takes 20-30 days (If you dont have many referrals) to earn a modest amount of $5.
I have listed below a few sites which are the best acclaimed get paid to read emails sites. People have been paid by this site. Yes, even I have been paid by one of these. But before signing up for these programs, I would recommend you to create a different email account so that these emails dont jam you personal email account where you receive your important messages. I would even recommend signing up at paypal.com. Its free and all the sites deposit your earnings in your paypal account. Paypal is accepted by almost every online store. Some get paid to read emails sites also give the payment as a money order or cheque. But paypal is better since you get you payment very fast by it. And its safe too.

All the above programs are genuine. They all have paid many members. I have been paid by Betty bucks when I reached the payout. If you happen to sign up at these sites, you can insert pooh18 as your referral id. It wont affect your earnings but will be nice for me :). Hope this was helpful to you in earning a teeny veeny income.
