encourage participation and reward great answers, Yahoo! Answers has a system of points and levels. The number of points you get depends on the specific action you take. The points table below summarizes the point values for different actions. While you can't use points to buy or redeem anything, they do allow everyone to recognize how active and helpful you've been. (And they give you another excuse to brag to your friends.)

To show that you are able to answer questions and help other people out. Also it makes you feel good about yourself as you know that you can use your intelligence to help others. When people look at your profile and see your points you will come across as a very help full and intelligent person if you have allot which is therefore rewarding to some people! :)

Nothing. That is what people who cannot do anything else to gain recognition want, and there are plenty of those.

We don't get anything.
Yahoo, however gets money from their advertisers for every new click.
