Ok, please don't send me links to your referrals anywhere. I'm not interested in pay as you click crap. I'm talking about real money. I can't sit for hours wasting my time making pennies. I want to know if there are legitmate ways to make money online. Please, don't give me your referrals, I only want to know if there is something out there that's legit.

In a word, no. In more words, there are no sites online that I'm aware of that you can use to make real money, that is more than $100 a month, via online work. I use $100 a month as a barometer for real "online" money, but in an ideal world, you could make as much as $2,000-$5,000 a month with an online job. The only sites that promise you that type of money are sites that are either scams or "home-based businesses", which I cannot say are scams (I don't have enough experience with them to give them a yay or nay) but seem as if you have to put in more work with them and rely on others to get your income to a certain level. Home typing also seems illegitimate, though I could be wrong. Does anyone on MyLot use a home typing or data entry company to make money? If so, could I see proof. But I digress, back to your question bonbon664. If you make pennies online, that is because the sites you are on do not generate much money, and thus can't pay you enough for your effort. A site called globaltestmarket gives surveys to their customers. It is free to join, and I don't think you need any referrrals. I've received money from them without referrals, so it is possible.

Hi, As long as you're prepared to put in a bit of time and effort there are plenty of ways you can earn online. Probably the first and easiest way is to set up your own websites/blogs and monetise them with affiliate programs etc. Depending on what your website/blog is about there's plenty of ways to add a variety of income streams to it. As I mentioned though you do need to put in a bit of time and effort to set them up, and you won't earn overnight, much like an offline business it takes time to build. Of course once you've done that you then have an ongoing residual income that continues to grow while you move on to something else.

Yes, there are ways to make money but I think you either need to be the first to get involved, be an exceptional sales person, or put in lots and lots of work. I've made money online as a writer but it's not set in stone as to what or when I will earn.

Real, legit ways of online money that go beyond pennies a day. All I can think of is making an online business. (Example: Server Hosting) Or, making another one of those online games people been making millions off of :/

There are lots of legit opportunities online. Problem is most are presented in a hypey, scammy, fraudulent manner. No one makes money just by signing up and waiting for the checks. Not everyone can do it, you won't be a millionaire overnight, it does take time, effort, thinking, learning, and sometimes investment. Sometimes you will work for pennies in the beginning. Sometimes you have to get started where you are. CEO's don't start at the top... they earn their way up. That's the raw, un-adulterated truth.

I haven't come across anything that will help you generate 'real money'. 'Real money' always involves 'real work' I think.

Well, mylot is a way to earn but its not the get rich thing that you are really looking for. If you want to make it big on online earnings you can look in the internet and you will see that there are lots of earnings you can get from this sites it just needs your time and your commitment to do so. For me I am doing fine with mylot, I am not rushing things here and I would want to wait for the perfect timing.

Yes there are.I didn't expect a mylotter ask this question.After a whole lot of trial and error I find Mylot is a genuine example of how you can earn money on the internet if you yourself are genuine and work hard.
