Do you prefer to make money online or apply for a part time job in your area? I think it is good to earn money online. It's easy,you are your own boss. But can be quite time consuming. Do you think it's worth it to earn $1/ day online while you could earn $6/hour doing a part time job? You also damage your eyes while using your computer to do stuff online for money. They can also scam you which is really common nowadays, and then all your precious time was wasted on a scam. I wouldn't call "making money online" a job. It's more like a hobby. Interested in affiliate programs? Don't try them. I am talking about the ones which have a pyramid scheme -(THE "boss" refers you and he makes all the money from you and who joined under you)- and it's only purpose is to build a huge downline. How would that work? You register to a site and you pay a fee of $3 you give your referral link to someone and they will register and pay fee of $3 (they hv to, thts how Forced Matrix works) you get, lets say, $1.5 from that and $1 commision from a person who joins under your referral. This seems possible if looking at mathematics behind it, BUT there is no point of it AND it is kind of illegal.(these pyramid owners keep $1.5 from all people's registration fee and they just dont pay taxes.) well these were all my theories, ideas, maybe some facts, You decide for yourself, you make the mistakes . What do you think?

Well...that's great. You also could work at westathome.com and get paid for working on accounts such as toys r us. You just download their software and the phone calls come in to your home phone. If you get stuck you just call a "pal" and they help you out. I use to do this.

Hello cher913. You seems to be a very busy person. That's a great business you come up. What are you crafting? If I may ask. I think that is a great business. Have fun on what you do.

hello, I prefer to have both, so all in one. it means I can earn $6 and the $1. Actually, I want to have my part time job outside of the house is a lot better cuz it will pay you good, even you are not your own boss. Job is hard to find, so once you have a chance then get it before someone else. If you have this part time job then you still can do the online job once ever you are free... and you still make the money.

What do you do my friend if I may ask? I also love to be hired by someone because the payment is secure where as earning online. We are not sure of receiving the said payment the site promise.

In my opinion it takes a little bit of both to make it in life now. The economy is so bad with jobs cutting hours and not having hours at all to hire workers. It's not do you want to do one or the other any more but wich one is going to get you the most to pay bills and keeping the one that helps you woth pocket money on the side.

I totally agree. In this times We really need to grab any opportunities for us to earn even a little extra income. From what I have heard more will be unemployed by the end of this year. So there is a great need for us to do part time jobs and it does not matter if we are earning online or offline.

I do online things to mke money. Right now I am making 150 to 200 a month. I plan to make more as time goes by. I do not like leaving my home to gt a part time job. With bus fare and other expenses I probably wouldn't make much more than i make now.

I would prefer to make money online because it's in the comfort of my own home. If I need to make more and I can't get it online, then I'll choose working a part time job somewhere. If you're careful and you don't abuse your computer usage, you should be fine. I think if you learn how to make money online the right way, you could set yourself up for unlimited income in the future. There are so many success stories all over the net and they all come from hard work.

Hi munyosz, what you are telling here is really true. Yeah, we are always advised not on any account to join any pyramid scheme. Unless you are the one who sits on the top of the pyramid. If not we are most probably become one of the victims who supplying money instead of making I had tried writing article and comments, uploading photos, etc on a couple of sites before, but all of them had turned to be scam after some time. myLot is the only reliable and legitimate site that pays us on time. I log in once I'm free. I’m quite sluggish in writing posts, so it’s impossible to earn enough money for my daily expenses for sure. Therefore here is only a wonderful place for me to spend my spare time I still prefer to do part time works in the nearby area. It’s quite easy to earn a few dollars per hour. Moreover I don’t have to spend 8 hours or so 5 days a week busy in the office and doing the tedious work. Of course I have more freedom but lesser income Have a nice day and happy posting!

i prefer to make money from home at this time so the online earning helps me greatly. i need to be here for my son on days off from school and summer breaks and before and after school so i need a very flexible schedule and working from home gives me that and i am my own boss. i do not make nearly as much as i would working outside the home but this is temporary and i make it work for now.

Although many people choose to do a part time job in their area, especially for people who have no access to the Internet, I prefer to earn money online. Compared with doing a part-time job ouside, making money online at home is simple. For some housewives, the old, or some college students, it is obvious that making money online is a better choice. If choose to do a part time job out of home, some people have to give up doning the work at home. I prefer to make money online because I love spend time on the Internet for it is so convenient and I can do everything just through the Internet.

I'm doing both right now. Mainly because I like meeting and talking to other people in person. If I only do online jobs, I'll be at home every day and all day. I tried that once, and I found out I got fat and I don't take care of my looks anymore.So it's nice to go out a couple of days a week and see the sun and smiles of other people.

Good point about the pyramids shows how much of a rip off they truly are and I would prefer to make money online as of now because its so hard to find a job nowadays..

i only mylot for a bit of fun. i dont make much money at all online. i have just finished school - during which i had a part time job. i am about to change my contract to full time, as well as doing extra work such as cleaning, dog walking and lawn mowing - as much as i can get anyway. and i mylot in my spare time, for fun. i dont think i could ever make an earning online, i just dont think i could spend all my time on the net. i like physical work and enjoy the outdoors. plus, im not good enough to ever make enough money.

Well right now I am doing both working part time at a job in my area and I've been making money online as well. Together by combining both funds I make an okay amount of money. I only work at my job about ten hours a week so I have to try and make up some extra money online. It helps out a bit so I would say that online earning is worth it plus you get to work in your home which is awesome.

I would like to be doing both earning some money at home and a parttime job here where I live. I am doing the money online not earning a lot yet but keep trying and I am applying for parttime jobs hoping I will get hired soon.

I'm still a student its hard for me to have a part time job because of my unpredicted schedules and activities I have since now that I'm a graduating student. I prefer working here online on 3 of favorite site this are microworkers,GNNSHARE and mylot. This are a very great site, my goal is to earn even just few enough for me to pay or buy some of my personal used things.

Well i do prefer both. Working and making money online is the part time job. Not many people are successful in the online business. It would not hurt make money online as a part time job. Besides I have nothing to do after work!
