I just started,please don't ask how much money I earn!

I don't think they're meaning to be rude but are wondering that because they want to see if you figured out the secret of earning more. Some of us tell each other their secrets in hopes to make more. Some of us are on disability and are in need of money. Then again, there are some who are just plain nosey. You'll have to be the one to figure out which is which. Good luck!

Try and turn it into something positive. A lot of people, especially around here, have proof of payments from many sites. Try showing them what other people have earned and how you are hoping to do the same. Then, use them as a referral. Get them to sign up under you. Maybe here. And let them see for themselves. Good luck to you.

well, i don't think they mean to be rude to you... they just ask you the question casually... if you don't feel like answering it, just don't answer it and ignore them... but you don't have to take it too heart and just go easy... just let them know how you feel... you just started, still learning and haven't earn much yet... that's it...

I think it's rude as well. What you earn is none of their business, and if they want to know how much they can earn, they can try it for themselves. I wouldn't tell them... it would make me angry, as it does you. Brightest Blessings.

Earning on the net won't get us nowhere...This are just extra money we'll get so we can have something extra for us. I think your friends are just telling yo the same thing I am. I do get annoyed sometimes with my husband asking me when will I ever get paid here..He thinks everything I joined is a scam..He knows mylot isn't because i got paid with it but he still asks where is the money since I don't know how to withdraw my money on e-gold. I just don't mind him..What does he care what I want to do..I have a full time job and I am getting extra pay in here.

Yes, I also think earning online is very interesting, I have been doing for three months, though I have not received any money, I am still happy because of interesting. I will do on and on, I think it is my wealth by accumulating my words.

everyone wants to earn additional income i guess that's the main reason why your friends and most the people you know want to know how much money you are making on your online activities, i even wonder that thing too. it's natural and you must not be offended, sometimes when we promote a link to our friends for the site we are a member of, the first thing they will ask is "how much money do you earn here and how can we earn from the site too?", that's understandable especially if that's the first time they heard such extra income opportunity through online stuff. I'm sure when you were barely starting here you also wonder that question. instead of being mad and offensive, the best thing for you to do is to entertain those queries and explain to them the this and that of our "online thing" who know you might convince them and join under your name. that will mean extra income again for you right :)

I just say best of luck.

don't think that I have ever been asked that question. I think that like other people said, I don't think people are trying to be rude. I think they are just curious. I have got a few sites that I go to, but still don't make a lot, but I figure that something is better than nothing. Although, I haven' gotten a payout from here yet because I haven't made enough yet.

I have never been asked anything like that, but I guess if I did and I did not want to say anything then I would either say that it was still early days so I wasnt too sure or I just say well the harder you work then the more you earn. Or I would just say, look I dont really want to tell you so please dont ask.

i just want you to know that those people didn't mean any harm. like me, im a very inquisitive person and i ask a lot of questions. they are interested that is why they are asking.

Hey gxn! I have never asked you that lol so I hope you are not angry with me! What I advise is to just plainly tell them that you are new to this whole thing and that in a few weeks maybe you will have information for them! Right now, however, you just say you know very little about online earning! That's it! Hope I helped you out!

ya i too started blogging 3 months ago and everyone ask me the same question too .. how much u got till now i know the fact that i did not get anything till now as i was new and i was on the wrong path and now i need to earn money and i am on the correct path ... doing mylot but its really annoying that question and also worst thing is people started to see me as a mad person .... but i will not leave until succeeded

I think you should distinguish the same question from different person.if the man is your good friend,may be what he cared is not really how much you earn,but whether you can support yourself when you work in this way.Your good friend just care about your life,not your money.

Truthfully it does not bother me to be asked how much I make online. I don't make much right now because I have writers block and am having a hard time writing articles for money. I also do other things but they take time to accumulate anything. When I'm asked I just tell people that I make enough to buy food at the end of the month and pay for gas. I tell them that I hope to make more in the future when I get high speed. :)
