Is it really possible to make a living online?

August 7, 2008 11:24am CST
I have been trying to make money online for a few months now. I have not had a lot of success. I have made the odd pound here and there but nothing that would give me a living. I do paid surveys that give you about a pound if you are lucky or give you an entry to a prize draw. I have tried selling affiliate products using free classifieds, opt-in lists and articles. I have 2 affiliates who have joined a free programme but have not up graded so I ended up with about $3. I m hoping I can do better now I have joined Mylot. Anyone have any other ideas. Or is earning good money just con?

I think it is very possible if you put a lot of time and effort into it. However, a lot of people just don't have the time to sit on their computers and make that effort when they have a "real" job and a family to attend to. However, if you find out a way to make more than a pound here or there, please let me know!

I am retired and like most women I am on a really low pension. If I find anything that is any good I will let you know.

The most I ahve heard of anyone making online is about 360.00 a month which is pretty good, but is not going to take the place of a regular job. I make about 30 or 40 a month from surveys and groups and maybe another 20 or 30 from other sites. This isnt all cash I get paid my fair share of Amazon certificates also. You have to put alot of time in just to make that.

I would be over the moon if I could earn 360 a month. I wish I knew how they did it. I have been putting in a lot of hours and have only been earning a pittance. Thank you for your reply. Hope you go on earning.

Yes,you can earn on line good money from stock Markets,matrix programs and other investements.Yes,from mylot as well and auction sites,just to mention but a few.

I do not have the money to play the stock markets or anything like that and I would have thought it was a bit dodgy in the financial climate. Good luck with your investments though.

There are so many Companies that take $50 to start and will give you the training that you need to have.It's not a big deal.I can tell you when to buy what if you don't mind? Although there are forums where you can discuss with others and decide on what to buy and when,collectively.

I've been trying to make money online too with different programs, ebooks, referrals and all that stuff but still not having the success I thought it would be. I am with a couple of survey sites which in the past I have made about 50 bucks but nothing to make a living with lol I'm still trying though and I know it probably will take time, effort and knowledge so good luck to ya!
