What did (or do you plan to do) with your first $50 payout?
I had made a little less than 40.00 in the past year. Not a lot, but I think i'm going to buy a new battery for this laptop
I actually bought a custom made Seattle Seahawks sweatshirt - a non-essential purchase but one that I could remember the milestone by...
Me..planing for 3-5 domains,portable harddisk, and hosting .
What I did with my first payout is to save the 25% and spend the rest to purchase a coupon that I'll use to treat my team (from my school organization) to a lunch buffet.
I put the money towards a new computer. I have a savings account that I put my hubpages money in that's separate from everything. I'm least likely to spend it that way, and I earn interest on it. Then at the end of the year I splurge and buy myself something nice, like a new camera for taking pictures to use on my hubpages or upgrading my computer.
Payout comes every other month and pays for one month of my cell phone, or a tank of gas and a meal or two.
I used my first fifty dollars to finance a google adwords campaign. It turned out to be an utter failure! The sum took a year to make and a week to blow
I purchased a warm winter coat with the money from my 1st paycheck.

There are a large number of writers contributing in hubpages. Depending upon the quality and popularity of their work they must be receiving the payments from hubpages.I want to know how much time it took for your first payment? If you share this information it will be a good guideline...

Is it okay to deactivate my Google Adsense settings here on HubPages? Also, how can I payout my earnings from Google Adsense?
