Don't forget taxes. There goes your wealth.

Yep. Take out 1/3 for the government (if you're in the US) and you get to keep 5 cents.

Oh darn.  I got .13 and figured that was some sort of recent record. Zeus, you beat me by .06!

(And take out another penny for hidden taxes. Enjoy your 4 cents!)

Calculated to XS it would be a 7c DL. IS just can't get more pathetic (if it was a sub, I'd get 4c or somethnig at that credit price).

Funny.  I saw on IS where the a thread about this was closed probably for the purpose of minimizing the bad image (no pun intended) Istock gets from these peanut commissions.

Just closed? I'm surprised it was not deleted too.

There are lots of 50 cent credits out there, lots of posts in the forum about it.  Just found one for 45 cents too.
