Do You Find Making Money On Line Sort of Addicting??

'Cause I sure do. I think the first money I made on line was about a year ago, on Associated Content. To open my email and see that I'd received payment was a giant high for me. I now 'work' sites like Clixsense, My Cash Honey, Cash Crate, Make That Dollar, as well as Associated Content and surveys and do some selling on Ebay occasionally and on my own website.
I've joined quite a few GPT and PTC sites and now I'm trying to winnow them down to a few of each, focusing on the ones which have paid me and trying to get more referrals for them. The goal being, of course, to not be tied to my pc all day and still be bringing in some additional income. I find, however, that I get antsy if I'm not doing something, each and every day, to bring in more money. I normally use two browsers at once - IE with the screen somewhat minimized for playing the Netwinner games throughout the day, and Firefox, with its multiple tabs, to do things such as check emails, do PTCs and such.
Does anyone else do something similar/feel similarly or am I the only obsessive/compulsive personality around here??

I am addicted. LOL!!! It's my hobby and I love it. It has had many different stages, but it all involves trying to earn for my family online while I'm at home with my kiddos.
I do have a question, can you make money from referrals on associated content?

I took a quick look around the Associated Content website and it appears the answer is "no." You get payment for an accepted article and then the "performance payments" based on your readership.

The reason I asked is because I wanted to reward you if there was. Thank you.

Oh, yes I do. Making extra money online would drive me mad. I joined the free game of making money online several months ago and felt that I couldn't resist the tempation to do that. Though the earnings is quit a few but I am always happy to receive income and take it to buy some gifts for myself.
