Let your views be heard regarding this topic. For me it is less complicated to work than going online. It takes time to earn and cashing out would mean spending money and taking risk in scams. what do you think?

I think if we have good skill like web programing, artikel writing, etc... we can success on online business. And if you a good promotor you can earn more from refferal but you must choose the right site before join.Online business is about skill and luck...!!

Hello rastaman, Web programing is a way to make money from home but there are also some ways that you can use to make money online without knowing of that stuff. You can try affiliate marketing to make alot of money online without knowing about web programming.But like anything you will also need to learn a little but it will benefit you alot if you like to work from home. I have tryed it in the past, in my opinion it is very difficult but everyone says to me that its very easy, i dont know why. You can try it to see if you can make money online, i did it in the past but i quit!

I find it more challenging to earn online because you have to do much work to earn such little money. It takes a lot of time to build up referrals which does help increase your earnings eventually, but in the short run you find yourself working for peanuts. hen you go to a job, as soon as you get there and clock in, you are getting paid a few dollars or more even if you do a lousy job. You may not stay there long, but my point is they will still pay you just for showing up. The scam risk is huge in working from home. It's bad enough to work hours for so little, but to then be scammed out of that little money is horrible. Yet I think we do it for the implied freedom and flexibility that it gives, whereas going to a job is not as flexible.

Definitely, making money online is much much more complicated because you're working for yourself. You need to be able to do everything that your boss would be doing. Working for someone in the offline world is way way easier.

I think both is complicated and not easy to do~(^^) There is nothing as what we called as easy job. Everything need a first, second and so on and so forth number of steps till we get used to it. All kind of job have their own risk, good and bad so we can't say that one is better than the other..(^^)

I think earning online is more complicated than going to a regular 9 to 5. Now if you have a legit online job, then maybe not. But when dealing with a variety of online earning sites, it's sometimes hard to distinguish what is real and what is a scam. In my opinion that alone can drain a lot of energy from you. Also having to wait for your earnings can be frustrating especially when you need your money right now.

From my own experience, it is less complicated, but also less paying :p. Then I consider earning online as an extra money, and I wish I can get good job in the future..

I think a lot of people think working from home is super easy and they will make a lot of money for nothing. Then when reality sets in they realize they have to actually work and have a routine just like you would any other job. Otherwise you won't make money if you just sit on your butt all day lol. So yes, working online does seem easier than working outside at first but it's much harder because you have to be strict with yourself and force yourself to put in the effort. The only difference in working online really is that you can do it in your pj's and set your own schedule. You will still have a boss and that's yourself.

A pleasant day DRANREBGOMEZ, With reference to your main topic, both work is complicated, as it both requires devotion and time allotment. Plus you must have the discipline in both jobs, online and offline, as this is one of the secrets to success. Despite of their similarities, concerning work and earning money, online and offline job have some differences. First, the working environment, being in an online job, you can work outright at the doorstep of your home. You need not to leave, go out, and go for a transport just to be present in the office. And since online job is a type of work where you are doing it all by yourself, you do not have to follow a boss or any supervisor as you, yourself is your own boss. Aside from that, nobody will tell you to do overtime if ever your schedule is not suitable to extend working time. As doing online task is adjustable according to your set schedule. As to scams and risk, there are also scams and risk in doing offline jobs. Going to the office everyday is a part of the risk. Doing reasoning and giving your judgement to a certain thing is also a risk thing to do. As well as, scams are also prone in an offline job. Wherein, it sometimes show where connivance are being at stake. Thus, both job is complicated. You just need to be discipline enough and prayerful so that God will guide you accordingly. Have a nice and fruitful day friend.

This type of question has only one real answer, or YES. In fact I think it can very easily earn money online, from home, rather than going to maybe take the worker. But I must admit, my own experience that what you can earn online for you to be brave, you can not outlast us, economically speaking. I will say this, although to be honest I have not used 100% of the resources offered by the network to earn money. I would like to be denied from you, that to know that in fact the network was possible to earn the minimum necessary to live. Are accepted tips of any kind, maybe better in private message

For me, making money on the internet is very much more complicated than going to work. We have to study hard on the in and out of earning online and the website we are going to trust. There are many encouraging opportunity in the net but not all of them are true. But by our office work, we are paid the minute that we log in our daily time record. We just need to study the area of our responsibility.

You are kind of assuming that everybody can find a job that pays.it also depends what you want from life, for me I think making money offline is, if you can get a job, easier but you will be on a fixed income and inflation in food and energy costs will soon render that wage useless (you practically need to take out a bank loan here to fill your car up and buy some meat). Making money online, yes more complicated and a lot of hard work but the point here is that you are working for yourself, not some guy in an office and it is up to you how much you earn. Not having a job and having to find other ways to get money makes you a much more motivated, skilled, creative and productive person, than someone who is content with staying in a job for a fixed wage....

ya, agree with you, actually earn from internet is not neccessary you can meet the legit site. or even really a legit site, after a few year or month then it suddenly become scam and do not pay anymore. so it is more safe to have a proper job.

I would rather advice u to go for ur work and not rely on earning money thru internet.This money we earn in net is just for our leisure hour and not for living.........
27 Feb 12
I agree. Going to work, you know the drill. But going online to earn money is tough. and they say easy money is @ the world wide web (they have no idea)

It is less complicated if you've refined your method of earning online and if you know what you're doing. It is easier to put longer hours into your work, because obviously you don't have to go out to work and this means that you don't have to think about leaving the house and you can spend that time starting your work first thing in the morning instead. I have a separate office which I use during "working" hours, so it still feels as though I am going to work, it's just that my journey doesn't actually take any time at all.

I think online work is much more complicated,much less earning opportunities than working offline job.One should go for a steady offline job first and use his/her free time to find any online work.If you have some good skills,talents and lots of patience,then you will be succeed in online work.

I think you may be right. I'm spending a lot of time online and not making very much money at all. Anyway, maybe it's time to hit the pavement again and look for a real job on the outside world!

From what I've found and the number of things I'm involved in, you almost have to be numerous things in order to truly make a substantial income online. If you have the time to spend and delegate the time wisely, you may only have to work a few hours per week and earn very well...just don't waste too much of your time on things that don't offer great return.
