Ha ha ha, Vasili I wish I coul do the same. Fasolada 4 ever!
from an auction on mokimarket
i got mine for free 
My first coins were from them faucets and such. I think total I only got .007BTC, I know crazy right! As for the rest I sold a guy that I play Half Life with one of my PS3's for 40BTC. I am just an enthusiast. I will keep like 10BTC in a wallet I won't touch until the price sky rockets and the rest are to be bartered. I plan on upgrading some of the Home Theater gear I have and will probably sell that for bitcoin and trade it to a giftcard or something unless I find a suitable merchant for my upgrades.

memorydealrs.com hooked me up!
By watching videos and doing surveys.
How long did it take you?
Not sure. But definitely less than 30-40 minutes of actual work.
Only did one survey, the rest I got from videos.
Could you do this full time? 1 bitcoin for 3 mins is reasonable pay for the locals here in Thailand.
Surveys you can usually only do once per day. You can watch how many videos you'd like, but only one time per video, per address.
http://www.freedigitalmoney.com/en/Home is where I got it from.
Well I signed up with Mt.Gox as well and it looks as though it's not as complicated as I first thought.

I set up a machine to mine. A couple of weeks later got a payout of 2 shiny bitcoins.
Bought my first coins at 24¢ from a listener to my podcast by bank transfer as an alternative to paypal for moving money from Australia to US to pay my college loans.
I'm an enthusiast.
I now help others in Australia get there first (and subsequent) coins easily at http://au.spendbitcoins.com.

MtGox accepts local UK deposits...
I knew you could deposit to MtGox via international wire transfer, although I don't think I can do that online and I live out in the sticks. Also I think the bank fees are sizable for international transfers? I might sign up and give it a go anyway.
Well, only 2 hours 15 minutes online and 6 posts to go I guess.
I got my first coins by mining when the difficulty was around 12. Took me less than a day.
