500 reviews over 3 days for $200 - Should I subject myself to this torture?

Tweet

So I'm trying to find a way to make at LEAST half of what I earn from my weekly paycheck at work. I make $380 a week at my job. I figure if I can get at least $200 from online a week then I won't have to continue looking for a second job. It's already a pain in the butt as it is to find a second job even though I currently have one of the most respectable careers on Earth (EMT) but no employers fail to realize that. The only sites to look for in order to do this are the ones that pay upfront and not per commission. The only sites I've found that are the most profitable in that department are ReviewStream and Associated Content. They are all guaranteed upfront payments, no competing, none of that crap. So with ReviewStream, I've been aiming for the bulk rate of 40 cents a review (I don't aim for the $2 because that's not guaranteed, only the bulk rate is, you see). I previously wrote 125 reviews for them over about a month and got my first payment of $50 from them. Associated Content I've only written 7 articles for and got about $25. My average AC pay is $3 per article. I have 3 days off a week from my job and that's the only time I can find to do this crazy idea I came up with: 500 reviews for ReviewStream over 3 days, 166 reviews per day. 500 reviews x 40 cents = $200. I decided to try that experiment today and found I was only able to write 10 reviews in one hour and needed a break. Maybe I'm just being lazy? It is so possible to to get paid the amount I mentioned by writing that many reviews, but the only problem is its a BIG pain in the butt to do. The money is there, the work is there, but the willingness to insaneness to do it sure isn't for me. Even if I had a big healthy meal and good motivating workout, I still don't think I can do it. I would have to be like a cyborg. Then there's Associated Content. If I write 20 articles per day, 3 days each, that gives me $180 (remember, I average $3 per article). That's dandy and all, but the problem is coming up with enough topics to write about. I can write reviews for them because they don't pay upfront pay for reviews. If they paid upfront for reviews, I would have no problem whatsoever, heck I would write 30 a day. I just feel like I'm running out of options here. Everything outside of ReviewStream and Associated Content is way toooooo much labor to deal with, paid to post sites, ptc sites, commission sites, all they pay is pizza money. That's cool if you want some money to buy an extra sandwich every week, but I'm serious here. Other writing sites suck compared to Reviewstream and AC. Helium is too strict and has too many requirements, plus there's competition on there (I'd rather compete if I was rich, that way I can sit back and enjoy it without worry). Compared By is constantly changing their site so there's a lot of uncertainty associated with that (heck they did it while I was with them). Ciao is probably the worst of them all, what do they pay now like 25 cents per review? Ha, might as well go to reviewstream in that case and get the extra 15 cents per review. And every other writing site only pays by CPM, page view, or whatever.
