Investing in HYIPs (High Yield Investment Programs) are one of the easiest and most automatic ways you can make money online – if you know what you’re doing. A HYIP (High Yield Investment Program) is an online opportunity to invest for a short term mind-boggling interest return. You can often expect up to several hundred percent increases on your initial investment within a week or possibly even days.

Along with their high profitability, HYIPs are also extremely risky. HYIPs tend to only be around for a few weeks to months and possibly a year, however that doesn’t mean that you can’t chip into this huge online moneybag.

Most if not all HYIPs are actually Ponzi Schemes where the interest paid to existing members are actually money invested by newer members. The only way for a HYIP to continue its business is to continually attract new members and it is through this business model that you can find the secret loophole to profit from HYIPs.

By following the Ponzi Scheme, you can *almost* be reassured that as long as long as there are new money invested, then you’ll get your pay. However that is not always the case as some HYIPs could be outright scams and simply disappear. To make minimize your risks by following the Ponzi Scheme, simply make sure that the total money withdrawn is less than 60% of the total money deposited.

By making sure that the total money withdrawn is less than 60% of the total money deposited, you minimize the risk that the HYIP could crash at anytime and lose all your investments.

Here’s some signs that may signal that an individual HYIP might be more risky, a scam or about to crash:

- The High Yield Investment Program has been running for less than a month or over six months
- If the site does not show public stats such as running days, total deposited and total withdrawn
- If the total money withdrawn is over 60-70% of the total deposited
- If the site does not disclose its location and/or provide very little contact information
- If the withdrawal process take over 24 hours
- Absurbly high interest return (the higher, the riskier)

In conclusion, High Yield Investment Programs are a great business opportunity for those who know how to monetize it and a money drainpipe for the unaware. Well, hey! The HYIPs gotta make their money from someone, at least it won’t be you now that you read this article (hopefully)!
