I am having my annual crazy moment. My addled brain keeps telling me that I can make money online without spending my life clicking PTC ads that pay $0.000000000000000000000001 per click! So I have signed up with all sorts of sites that promise much and deliver little. Or they simply take my e mail address and aim the spam guns at it ready for some heavy splatting. I'm ready to be put back in my straitjacket now Matron. So come one. Tell me that you earn a dollar a click, don't ever get spammed and don't know what a PTC is?

Can't tell ya that, I don't, I do and I do...
I did sign up for a site where you get paid for doing absolutely nothing, seriously. I'm all the way up to $1.67 and my sponsor has posted proof that he got paid. But you have to download something and they watch your internet activity. Some people aren't comfortable with that!

now that was sly.
This whole post has me giggling... I think MyLot should pay me to read... I'd be rich.
Great job Dawn!

Unless you create your own system, there is no site to give you big bucks...most of them are kept on false promises to make money if you spend money, most people just spend money....there is no such thing as free lunch...
Free to join, free to pay for shipping only and free to be spammed....
I better send you over straitjacket....

You know, P!key, they make some rather fashionable straightjackets these days. They even come in colors. Now listen to the nice men.... they are your friends.

I just basically do not understand these sites...what they are about, what I'm supposed to do. No-one has explained it for me to understand. I've joined many survey sites but they don't pay so I have given most of them a miss. I have a site that's an Aussie one where I can earn a minimum of 5 cents a day for about 30 seconds. I usually earn much more though. I'm almost ready for a $100 payout.
I joined a site 2 days ago that I think might be ok. It's free to join and you can do very little and ...I can't explain it...I just think I will be able to earn some money without having to understand things. If you like I can PM you the link and you can check it out for yourself. I've been asking my upline questions and she answered at first but she must be sick of me already...lol. Let me know...

The only one I mess with is INboxdollars. But that's because you can play games, go shopping, etc. They give you other was to earn. And I did just get another $30 check! lol

Your ARE crazy! I wish there was a place like that, I'd be all over it!
Unfortunately, while the internet is a great place to make money, it's mostly the ones taking advantage of others who make the cash.

You're so cute in your straight jacked Pike! And your writing sparks interest. I love your stile. . .oh, no, sorry. I love your style, so why don't you write short stories, articles etc. to publish on Bukisa. It could use some livening up. Most of the articles are drab, boring factual stuff like what I write.

I've never heard of Bukisa Mom. Unless it's that cloak thing that Moslem women wear! Bo is collating my stories, but she's having a hard job as I've only written two! I have to be in the mood to write and rarely am! I can produce a mean sentence, but a whole paragraph let alone a story sometimes seems so hard to do. I'll have a look though. I'm sure that you're stuff isn't as you describe it. Thank you.

There's a link in my profile if you want to check it out.

Oh, and I know what you mean about stringing together a whole paragraph, but the best response I've gotten to any of my articles was a tongue in cheek look at the effects of breach birth, so humor or fiction does do well there.

Good luck with that. All earning sites do the same thing. You have to be active 24/7 to earn anything. The best paying site that I know of is ChaCha. KGB is another one that's decent but they aren't get rich schemes either. They still take time. You can however, earn $20 or less a day on ChaCha and $2.00 or so an hour on KGB.

You're welcome and sorry. I think ChaCha might be downsizing soon. They're making a lot of changes and combining jobs. KGB is fairly new, so I'd keep checking them out. Good luck finding something.
