What do you do to earn a little extra money each month? I am not able to work much outside of the home as i am currently epecting a baby and i have a three year old daughter. What are some ideas of ways i can bring in a little money each month to use for "extras" that i don't normally get to purchase.

So you work from home? Is it an all day job? or is it something you do in your free time? Please feel free to post any ideas you may have here so that other people will be able to read and see it as well. If i get a chance i'll check out your website as well. Thanks!

Hi kainalu, there are more legit site to earn from and since you are from US I will recommend you some sites that are worth working for.First,mylot yes here in mylot your earnings are combined with your level of activity,you can also complete task and use search engine bar to boost your earning here but most important is never skip to read the FAQ&TOS. Second, Mturk this site is good if you like completing task or data entry job,there are thousand of task to do everyday and low minimum payout.The good thing about this site is you can do as many task as you want and if how much you want to earn for a day. Hope it helps and goodluck to your earnings

Thanks for the info. I actually do have an mturk account and so far it is my favorite site i've found online to eanr money. I spend a few hours a day doing the tasks. I love how you're able to see your earning pretty quickly and even though some tasks pay very little it is amazing how fast teh money really does add up. I just cashed out $25 yesterday. think i make at least $30 a month there as long as i do a few tasks a day. I love finding the higher paying tasks as well!

Great to hear that from you. You can also try odesk.com or freelancer.com for more data entry jobs. These 2 sites I think are great and will work for you.

I have to admit when I used to work, I also thought being a housewife is easy until I am one! People who are not housewives still think so.. and I am quite fed up by that.
Here we are trying to keep up with the unending mess which arent ours to start with and looking at the nice things that working mums have when we are scringing every dollar.
Nowadays I couldnt care less what people say about my unruly home, I want to have my own money to buy nice things for myself.

indafth----I think fifty dollars is a pretty good monthly amount. Do you get the majority of that money through mylot? or through the other site you mentioned, forex? I have never heard of forex? what exactly is it? and how do you earn money there? I am always interested in different online sites people use to make extra money each month. You should try mturk. It is the best i have found so far.
momof3kids----I agree. I think a lot of people out there think that being a housewife is an easy job. It is not, and worse yet, we don't get paid for it! I hate being in the position where i can't buy the things i want, and when every penny really does make a difference.

keep checking the tasks section on mylot. From time to time you will find high paying writing tasks.

I know that investing in a website is risky but I have experimented and got back my capital and profits as promised. Since I found myself being pulled in every direction more and more thus having less and less time earning money online, I think investing is my solution.
I mostly invest in www.forourchildren.ws with their short term packages. Long term packages lasts for 3 years so I only put in $10-$20. You can research it and I think you will find everybody saying that they are faithfully paying their members. But I still do not want to risk it and invest more in their long term packages.
Invest with my link and I will send you a little money to start *wink wink*

I checked out the link you sent, but am not quite sure about it. I didn't really look through everything so i don't quite understand what it is you do to eanr money, but i don't think i'd like to spend any money in order to earn money. I just don't think i can trust those kinds of sites. do you make a good amount of money through this ite? Are there other websites you use to earn money?

what kind of a business is it? does it require any start up fees? Most of the stay at home jobs i have found require some kind of an upfront payment. I am not interested in those as i just don't trust it. Feel free to leave more info here. thanks!
