So what is Platinum Lounge?
Its simple: comments + posts = points = CA$H!! ALL FREE!
In short -- you build points by making posts, comments, participating in daily contests, and you convert those points into cash, on a refillable debit card! Thats it. All free. It's that simple.
Platinum Lounge contributes a HUGE AMOUNT of all the money we make to "the Vault." You earn Performance Points for doing different things on the site like responding to a post, or referring a friend and if you are one of the Loungers who satisfy the graph requirements listed below then your Performance Points can be exchanged for cash from the Vault! ALL FREE! No charge to join, no charge for the card! We make revenue from advertising and e-commerce on the site and the Lounge difference is that we SHARE SOME OF THAT WITH YOU!
BUT, you gotta have a card, because we don't send checks, and we do not hold money!
Once Loungers receive cash, they love to shop at our popular Lounge Mall which increases the value of the Vault.

- New Profile -- 25 points.
- Comments -- 10 points.

- CRIMESTOPPERS! Whenever a Lounger catches fraudulent activity on the site, like another user running up points, or an outdated user who hasn't been on the site in over a month, the user who reports this buffonery gets 10%! Get your 10% today!
- CALCULATING POINTS: Take your current amount of points and multiply it x's the Exchange rate on the front page. For example 2500 points x's: 0.051 = $127.00 and so on...
- How much do you earn?!?: Every week the Admin's take a look at how active you are on the site, and reward you according to the graph below. Users are entitled to cash in points only if they satisfy the requirements listed in the graph below and are entitled to cash in only that number of points which represent the dollar amount(s) below.

VAULT RULES!
- You must have a Collectors Card to earn cash. If you need one: BANG IT HERE!
- The Card is free, and you don't have to pre-load it w/ $25 dollars like many of the Lounge Throw-Back users had to, provided you are OVER 18 years old.
- If you're under 18, your parents will need to load your card w/$25 bucks. (Its remains your cash).
- You cannot have multiple user profiles on the Lounge MVP list. Doing so, will result in an immeadiate ban.
- If you are a Lounge MVP, you qualify for MVP Thursdays! A day in which we hook up the Lounge MVP's with some extra cash.
- The Collectors Card is free!
- The Lounge MVP list is free!
- You will only be able to cash-in a pre-determined amount of points from the Vault. The Lounge Admin will independently set that amount every Monday.
- If your user profile is dormant for a month, you will lose ALL of your points. That is every last miniscule amount of your points, and you will not be getting them back. We will cash in those points, and put it in the Warehouse.
- The goal is to increase Vault loads over time as Ad and e-commerce revenues increase with more unique [real] users, and higher page views.
- The daily points for comments will be 10 points.
- The weekend rate for comments will vary between 20-50 points.
- As long as you remain an active user (defined as not allowing your points to lapse over a 4 week period of time] then your points are yours! Like a savings account, you cash some in, and save the rest.
- Users recieving over $650 will recieve a 1099 form to fill out. If you haven't recieved this form, no worries, we'll accommodate you.
- The $$$ load limit on the Collectors Card at any 1 load is $500.00 [UPside's rule]
- The $$$ carry limit on the Collectors Card at any time is $4000.00 [UPside's rule] (In this case, just transfer some into a separate checking account, and you're good).
- Your Collectors Card is also a dual checking account.
- We cannot hold money for users. You must have an UPside VISA card. Please review the UPside rules for getting a card. We are not affiliated with UPside.
- We are not liable for money you choose to transfer to a friend, co-worker, or loved one. In fact, we're not liable for your money at all!
- Manage your points carefully people!
- On Money Mondays all active, participating users get the same amount. The promised Land is the MVP Thursday where users get taken care of nice!

Richard Guiton
- Richard Guiton is the middle of 3 children born to Jacqualyne and Oscar Guiton. He attended St. Elizabeth High School in Oakland, California where his love for acting was born. He attended Morehouse College in Atlanta, Ga, and co-starred in an NBC movie of the week: A Family Torn Apart Richard went on to Hollywood where he immediately landed a national Pizza Hut commercial. Followed by Sunny Delight, Mervyn's, Taco Bell (with Shaquille O'Neal), Starburst, and more!
- Richard burst onto the national scene playing Tia Mowry's recurring boyfriend in the hit TV series: Sister, Sister. While simultaneously co-starring in an Columbia Pictures feature film: The Baby-Sister Club.
- This is where Richard's love for motion pictures exploded. He went on to co-star on other Warner Bro's TV shows like the: Parent Hood and The Steve Harvey Show BUT, it was in the summer of '97, working as a volunteer basketball coach that changed his life. RICH, as young people across America refer to him, began asking young kids what they would like to see in their movies? What came out was an award winning script entitled, "All Eyes On Me," and RICH was convinced that a 'new-media' was born -- engaging young people as to what they want in their entertainment thereby increasing the liklihood of a tremendous opening weekend.
- RICH is the creative visionary behind Platinum Lounge. One of the fastest growing entertainment 'new media' sites on the planet. RICH is very much "in synch" with current demands for Pop Culture, specifically in the area of entertainment. His creativity and passion was shaped in part by walking away from a successful TV/Film career to use his "eye for what the customer wants" to bring compelling entertainment for Pop Culture to enjoy.
