I always like to imagine the day when we look at 1000 Satoshi in the same way we now look at this 1.00000000 in BTC value. If/when BTC does get mass adoption, then small faucet money now may be worth a fair bit more.
Faucets are a safe way to begin using BTC without any potential loss.

Good point. I know of a friend that is waiting for just that.
Plus, you can optimize faucet claims by opening several faucets at the same time and claiming while others load, or having a selection of faucets with fast loading captchas (solvemedia typed captchas are a lot faster to load). You can also optimize more using some other altcoins.... many faucets are good but usually only 4 or 5 are really good and more worth the time. Taking other cryptos (litecoin, doge) into account, you can save some time on getting more value. All that takes work, but you can be a more professional fauceter optimizing all that.
Come on guys this is wasting time. I would rather buy 0.5 BTC for $100 and save myself 6 months of faucets solving captchas. Then I would stick these 0.5 BTC in a cold storage and wait that 1 BTC goes through the roof.
The only person that earns from faucets is the faucet owner since the people keep bringing traffic to his faucet/web site. Everything else is just not worth in my modest opinion.
