Try them all out and see what you feel most comfortable with.
For me personally, I found a game I was most comfortable with, Knockout Trivia, and won lots of TCredits from it. Then I found it easier to bid in the auctions, because I wasn't so worried about using my TCredits for practising when I knew I could go back to KOT and win some more. With the practise, I found the auctions got easier too. I go for auctions to build my business with, like PSAs, Gift Cards etc.
Both auctions and games will give you MRPs, which you can use to buy tools like S-Builder, PSAs, etc. Buying these from TC Direct also gives you VPs, even if you use your MRPs to pay for them.
Both will give you monthly VPs, up to 200VP for games (paid games, not the free ones) and 500VP for auctions.
My experience has been that buying the TCredits can make you EA, but using them wisely gets you at least to BTL.

Is it worth it to keep sending supportive emails to PSAs and CSAs who have 0 VP and been inactive for weeks or months?

Absolutely it is worth keeping them in the loop and sending them your newsletters and TeamMails just the same as you do for your active team members. It takes no more work to do.
You don't know why they haven't started yet. Perhaps they signed up spur-of-the-moment and weren't expecting something they would need to make a time commitment for. Maybe it just wasn't quite the right time for them.
I recently went through my email accounts to clear the clutter, and found newsletters from companies I found interesting enough to keep, and re-visited some of the sites and resources I signed up to several months ago, so don't give up on them. You never know what may inspire them to return.

Which is better to pursue...CSAs or PSAs?

I'm not really sure I understand the context of your question, however I'll try to reply the best way I can.
If you're talking about pursuing in the recruitment sense, then pursuing CSAs is not really an option, apart from in the occasional auctions to win CSAs. CSAs are generally given as a reward from SFI for you achieving and maintaining a minimum of EA rank.
Your own sponsoring efforts will be aimed at recruiting PSAs.
If you're talking about communicating with the CSAs or PSAs you already have, personally I wouldn't use 'pursue' as an appropriate verb in that case, as pursue means chase and when someone chases you, the natural reaction is to run away.
Your only real objective in working with your PSA/CSAs is to be there to help them develop their own business with SFI, show them how to duplicate the SFI methods. Treat them equally. Help them to become successful and your own success will be a result.
I hope this answers your question.

How is building a second income with a company like SFI beneficial to me?

How can a second income NOT be beneficial - to anyone?
Not only is an additional income valuable in itself, to increase your quality of life, but a business like this puts you on the road to financial freedom, independence, control of your own life.
No worrying about the stability of your job, no having to follow rules you don't like or don't agree with, no living to somebody else's expectations.
To paraphrase Zig Ziglar "achieving your goal is not so much about what you get, but about who you become".
Think of the direct benefits of not only helping your family, but also how you set the example to your children of what directed effort can achieve.
Best wishes :)

What should you say to your PSAs when they say they are going to quit because they are putting out more than they are receiving?

It is natural to invest in a business, especially in the early days.
Think of a bricks-and-mortar business. Most people would have to go to their bank or get a large loan from somewhere in order to cover start-up costs, running expenses, and living expenses for the first several months.
With SFI, you do not need to re-mortgage your home or commit to a large loan and interest payments. You can build your SFI business with minimal or even no capital investment at all. You can make SFI work with the investment of less than the cost of a cup of coffee a day, but you do still have to put the work in, in order to make it work and be profitable.

I have a Fast-Track lapel pin. How best to use it to attract sign-ups into SFI?

Oh, that's an easy one. Wear it! Anywhere and everywhere!
Some affiliates find it difficult to find a lead into a casual conversation with people they meet about the SFI business opportunity without it sounding like a sales pitch. Your Fast-Track lapel pin can do that job for you. People love 'shiny objects' and are bound to be intrigued, and will ask you what it is.
There is your hook. With the right bait and some skilful angling, you can catch fish.
Not only can it attract signups to your own team, but those signups will also have a better chance of being active and investing from the get-go. Why? Because they already know how effective your lapel pin was for you, it grabbed their attention, so they will want one too, to help them recruit their own team. It's one of the best advertising tools for your business.

What a great question!
For me it was deciding that my life HAS to change, therefore I HAVE to change what I do.
I read lots of motivational, positive advice and 3 pieces were beginning to stand out at the time I joined SFI:
1. If you always do what you always did, you always get what you always got.
2. It takes 30 days to break a habit and make a new one
3. If you'd started a year ago, where would you be now?
I keep these in mind. Sure enough, the first 30 days felt like a chore, now SFI is a joy, almost an addiction. I am beginning to see real results, and feeling more confident.
Reading the inspiring testimonies in the forum is a great help to me. It stops me looking for the 'quick buck', and helps me focus on commitment.
