Making money online as hyped as it is, is actually not so easy to achieve. So many options to choose from, PPC,PTC, HYIPs, Forex, Websites, Affiliate marketing and so on. But unless you find the right kind of thing you wont be able to make a dime out there in this vast NET! I have been trying since a long time to make money online and for the first year i ended up losing whatever investments i had made. But then i found something i knew i could really do and it worked for me! So you have to try your options out there and remember, DO NOT invest more than you can afford to lose. :)

Why is it not so easy to make money online? No. It is not. It is very easy to make money online. Look at MyLot. Just post a few, and then use MyLot Search Engine, and there your MyLot earnings appear! Easy or hard? Very easy!

The key to make money online is "don't try to hard" because when you do, you'll get depressed and would think that it doesn't worth your time. Take it as a hobby, and you'll begin to love it. Does it sounds easy for you to make 200 bucks a month? (your main job doesn't count), let alone making money ONLINE.

There are a lot of really good sites out there you just need to know where to look. Thankfully my blog has all of that information in it. Making money online is hard. why is someone going to pay you a bunch of money to fool around on the internet? the opportunity to earn ANYTHING should be enough to keep you motivated.

Earning money online is not easy because we engage ourselves in these programs with the belief that we will earn easily. This is not the case. Earning money online needs patience. Money will just not overflow in your paypal account once you participate in online money making programs.Just like any type of job, you will be needing to work for the money you aim to get. HYIP's seems to be interesting sites to participate at. But nonetheless, these kinds of investments do not promise quick and positive results. Your wight, do not invest what you can't afford to lose. Finding other opportunities that could work out for you the way you like it is really the best choice.

Don't invest more then you can afford to lose is really great advice. I would say that making money online is fairly easy once you find some legit sites. I would say that as long as you do your research on any site that you want to dedicate your time to you should be able to protect yourself from getting scammed. Even then though sometimes legit sites turn into scams so you have to be careful. Mylot is a great place to be a part of because a lot of members here have experience with a vast variety of different sites and different styles of earning money. You should be able to find discussions on pretty much any earning site that you are looking to join. This site is also one of the best earning sites I've been a part of. The more you type and be active on the site the more you will see your earnings grow. Good luck for the future.

personally it is easy to make online money I have been in mlm for over 10 years on the same site the hard part is actually having the determination to make money and to believe in what you are doing. In my mlm business I have over 5000 active downline members and prob ten times that number inactive members who didn't want to put the time and effort into building a business for life. My business is at a point now where it pays for my house my 3 cars holidays etc etc with money left over but to get to this point it took a lot of hard work and determination. Anyone can earn a few dollars here and there but only the motivated can actually say they make decent money online.

Yes, it is indeed difficult to make any kind of decent living out of the Internet. That's why we shouldn't focus too much on it, but rather, we should treat online earning as a venue for earning some extra pocket money, to supplement whatever we are earning from our main jobs. Having said that, I don't mean it's impossible to earn a couple of hundreds from the Internet, but it's not easy though.

I hear that, I just started and I realized that it was going to be a little time consumming. But I really am determined to just have fun with it and treat it as though it is a hobby and just something that I can do in my spare time besides watching tv. LOL. So far besides it being hard to determine what is a bad site and what is a good site. I found a few things that I would enjoy doing and I think that is exactly where you have to start. With something that you will enjoy doing. I love talking to new people and mylot is helping me do that.

It has never been easy for me to make money online . . I have been here in Mylot for more than three years and I haven't earned much since then. It is hardwork to earn online. Have a good day.

200 bucks from mylot??? Well now lets do the math.200 bucks per month means 6 bucks daily.Means 600 cents.Are you ready to do 600 scraps of 4-5 lines here daily?If you do that then yes it is possible.Another way to ease situation can be doing task.Have a loot at the task section daily and see if you can do some of the task there.

In general it's bad to make any investments towards making money online. If something truly pays you, you will not need to make any sort of investment towards it. Most things that require investments are scams and you should never invest anything upfront before you know if a site pays or not. And yes, earning money online is difficult. That's what you pay. You're not really doing a difficult service for the payers, so they're not really going to pay you like a real job. The more effort you have to put into something online, generally, the more money you're going to make. There are sites that will pay you to write articles or transcribe things and such and they do pay more than sites like Mylot and PPC sites, but they also require more time and effort.

As far as I am concerned, I think it is not really to earn so large money just in a time. But with the time goes by, I think if you can stick on it, you will earn a large amount of money.For me, I have been stick on earning money for a little long time, I think Ihave benefit a lot from online money making. Happy I can share my earning experience with you. have a nice day.

Because there are a lot of scam sites who encourage you to invest then not give back anything. There are many sites who are promising at first then start becoming a scam too. and I do believe in what you said:DO NOT invest more than you can afford to lose...
