that must of been extremely slow...when I build a roll I like to take shots at higher tournaments within reason...that's the best way to build a big roll. With $50 you could afford to take a shot or two at $2 sngs easily and if you win that's a big chunk added to your roll and if you lose it's really not that much...you took your shot and it didn't work oh well...I built a successful $400 roll on carbon doing this and taking shots that I've since cashed out(I hate carbon) and am now working on bovada which is surprisingly a little less on the bad beat/river side and I like it a lot better. Nothing in gambling/poker is 100% you gotta take risks.
edit: In no way did I say play $2 sng's regularly...if that was your point...that would be nonsense.
My strategy more or less:
Win a $1 or so in free roll. Play limit grind it to $2-$5. Enter a $1 SnG hopefully place (Usually do as these aren't that hard just play good cards, steal blinds when on button etc. rather standard) Rinse and repeat if lose and have no money to keep doing this with. Resort back to limit. Do this while playing freerolls etc. I've tried the NL approach and it's very hit/miss and you either make it quick or your out and have nothing
