since i stay at home, earning money online is easier for me, the problem is that its not instant and i'll have to wait a while. i normally start pushing my online earning when i really need it, like i have no money to spend so i need just a few dollars to make it to next payday.

Hi, i prefer earning money offline because many online programs are fake. Other advantage of offline earning is getting relaxation between your work . The best thing about offline job is you will surely get your payment.

I agree with you...only few online programs can be trusted and sometimes it even don't give you what they promised...it's all about the catch. You would really need a regular job or offline business. With online jobs, you'd earn but it will also take too much focus.

Aside from my full-time job offline is where I earn the most of my money.
The money I earn online is for the little extras, that everyone likes.
For example I like:
1. to watch movies (10-20 or more a month)
2. to eat at different restaurants
3. meeting and making new friends
My online income opportunities allow me to do all of those things without tapping into my full-time income which is used for bills, housing, family expenses, etc...

I do both, but I like earning money offline as offline earning programs are very slow. You can't earn enough for your daily needs online. I am a web developer and I can make many times more making websites than they pay us online.

If I am making money offline then it means that I have *gasp* a job! Oh, horror!
All kidding aside, my full-time job is what supports me, keeps a roof over my head and puts food on the table. So far I have not made enough money online to consider it anything more than pocket change.
Of course, if I was able to make money entirely online (legitimately, of course) then I would give up the job in a heartbeat. That's what I do in my spare time anyway so making a full-time living would be a dream come true! However, it is hard enough to distinguish the legitimate sites from the scams on the net, let alone trying to earn enough to equal the pay of a full-time job.
Right now I see my online pursuits as hobbies or ways to decompress and have a bit of fun after a long day at work. If it is not fun, I would not continue doing it, no matter how great the money may be. For me, any money I earn online is an added bonus.

Well I earn money from my FULL-TIME job- so that money is essential and welcome.
but I like the fact that I can earn money online and I can do much of this WHILE I am at work at my full-time job -so I am earning more during the same hours. That is what I enjoy most- that I can accomplish more than one thing at the same time- I love to multi task. because there just aren't enough hours in the day.
And my online earnings, I usually have fun earning anyway.

Same here! I usually go to MyLot whenever I get tired from my offline work. I get to de-stress, talk about my interests, and earn at the same time! Isn't it cool? Anyway, the sad thing is I'm earning really slowly in MyLot. They say I have to put 3-4 lines per reply, but sometimes I run out of words to tell. I just don't want to blab out of nothing just to do that 3-4 lines per reply. Boo.

I agree with you, of course, but I do like interacting more with people than with computers. I mean, I'm on the PC on most of my waking hours. What I like about going to the office is that I get to meet other people as well as doing what I love doing - developing computer programs. Anyway, at least I get to earn here on myLot talking about things that interest me, and at the same time, earning a little money to get by to little things.

I think I prefer both of them because I earn from both of them.For earning online I'll doing when I have some free time to spend or I don't have much work.Earning online is really easy to do and more relaxing because I don't have to meet a dateline.

I prefer earning extra money offline. Because most online extra money making websites are fake, and it really takes a long time to earn the first buck.
I do some translation and interpreting work for ppl or company offline. It's paid good. I am exploring more ways to translation work opportunity!
