I've been working online for years, and even though I haven't earned a lot of money, it's a good way for me to keep my mind occupied and make the month between SSI checks pass quicker. My goal is to earn enough money from the various programs I'm involved with to not need the SSI any more and to retire with a nice steady stream of residual income. But there are a lot of people who don't do anything but chat, or send email or just connect with friends and family. If you're one of these people, would you ever want to do anything else? Would you consider spending a few bucks a month on a business opportunity and learning how to work it if it paid you a nice chunk of change?

I have recently scaled down my online activities to a few productive things only. I checked for new online businesses. Mylot.com and Helium.com are my favourite online earning sites. On top of that I have another online education business that generates me a fantastic monthly income. I cannot understand the younger generation who spend countless hours chatting with friends online. That same amount of time could earn them some money if not a lot through sites like mylot.com.

I've found a few programs where you can sign up free and earn commission for selling the products, or you can buy from your own site and save a lot of money on things you need. One of them is http://www.telebay.com/rb44 I just bought two cell phones and plans from my own site and got them both free with a very reasonable plan from tmobile. They offer so much it's almost stupid to not sign up. You even get a mega mall with stores like target and wal mart and earn every time anyone makes a purchase.

There are a lot of things that we buy anyway, like grocieries and baby food and diapers and other things we use every day. I found a program where you can get coupons only for what you need and save hundreds of dollars on your bills and even get attorney services for free. That's the kind of things I look for in a business. What are the benefits going to be and how many people would want to do this?

What if you could multiply that by at least ten? Would you be willing to invest a little bit then? I do have a reason for asking this, and it's a good one. If you could start with an investment of ..say..$1 and using a simple method turn it into more and more over time, would it be more worthwhile for all the time you spend online?
