We all know about global crisis and how it has affected all of us. However, more and more people are resorting to online work for extra money. You might have noticed that there are always new websites that offer money to people in exchange for membership and doing tasks. Google and Yahoo are two of the richest companies in the world and their businesses are online. Do you think there is more money circulating online than in the real world? Do you think the internet has partly caused global crisis? Please react.

Hi cutie. There are endless possibilities online that several people can see. But it does not actually mean that there are more money online than offline. As what I can see internet make things easier and fast that is why people who understand the concept would see great income opportunities that they can not see offline. With my several months of stay online, I can say that the income I get from staying here is quite small compare to what I get from my present job. But one thing that being online gave me is the fact that I am enjoying it and I am learning new things everyday. Things that I do learn offline. Have a nice day!

Some people are just lucky to make it big online and we're not one of them.

Hi Cutie! I made that reply based on my experience. But I am still hopeful that we will be able to find how things work. No, don't say that. We will be one of those people, I am sure of that. Happy new Year!

Online job and different stuff discover few years ago so still we are not dependent on online earnings. It's hard to find money online compared to offline. Most of the people did it, they make online earnings as part time because they have a full time job offline I think there a more money circulate offline than online.

Well eventually the internet will be doing everything , in the future we probably wont have most office jobs anymore . Also facebook is also very rich , I wish that I could one day be like them . I think you make some valid points and something for us to think about . Even now a lot of cable channel are losing out to the internet . People are using the internet to watch most things these days.

Yes & no. The Internet has just opened more people's eyes to the fact that money is nothing more than credit people give each other. The main way people get that credit has always been 'loans from the bank.' Sorta like credit-cards (except the credit doesn't become money for YOU until AFTER you spend with credit-cards), sorta like the way the government spends ... it boils-down to spending with nothing to spend. Actually, most (something like 96%) of the money in the world is only 'credit' (basically 'numbers in a database,' as most businesses are now off of the 'paper' records-system)---including ALL of mine, until I go to the bank and cash it out.

A great comment about money cycling by Mythociate! Exactly!I couldn't say it better. I think this money craze was made up by governments and politicians and it's just a system of gaining more control and power over common people. As for myself, I am sure I'll never die from starvation or malnutrition because there is so much food in this world. The rest seems too insignificant to worry about. I mean cars, houses, and other properties.

As for me, many people has make it offline than online...and it deals with physical presentations, buy, sell, etc but online is more easy, simple, free, etc no warehouse, no shop, many free things online and all you need is just a computer with internet connection

That is correct, Ano. A lot of people have made their fortunes online like the founder of Facebook, etc.

I do believe that there are still more opportunities in the real world. Because online jobs only come up few years ago. And although many people earn big on online ventures, there's still more people earning big in the real world. But they say that why choose between the two when you have the option to choose them both.

I think that there is more money to make in the real world than the world online. I don't have an online job yet, but if I could get one in my spare time, I would be happy to try it after work.

I don't think that there is more money for everybody on the internet, but I do certainly thing that the ability to make money is freer because of the fact that hardly anybody needs to be qualified in order to make money on the internet. I know that when I first started I was the type of person who would do anything in order to get some money, and now I have built up a lot of skills because it was something that I needed in order to get the jobs finished that I started. I do think that more people should make an effort to do work online, because it is such good fun.

Knowing that top companies are engaged in online business makes me think that there's money circulating online than in the real world.
