hi im a new lotter. i just joined two days back. i need to save some money, coz me n my husband r planning to have a baby. i need to have money with me so that i can pay for my mother's airticket and some other expenditure of baby n me...it always helps to have money of ur own, right?
i dnt like asking my husband for money, bt now tht im not getting any steady job, i should find a way from net.
anybody know any genuine sites? sites i come across pay through pay pal, i have to create a bank account n apply for credit card. will the payers ever take away money from my account? is it safe?

There are a number of ways of earning online, but to be honest I don't think it's possible to generate a healthy income unless you start your own business, whether internet based or not.
You could try writing reviews for Ciao who also offer paid surveys - it's not easy though. My preferred site of choice is Slicethepie - you can earn money for reviewing music from unsigned bands. The highest rated go on to raise finance and you can use your earnings to invest in them.
You will start off earning vouchers though, which can only be used to invest. Once you proved yourself and your star rating goes up you will begin to earn real cash which can be withdrawn via Paypal.

I believe you have to earn a minimum of £5 ($10) in vouchers before you are eligible to receive cash. However, you also need to reach a three star scout rating before you're paid in cash - your star rating fluctuates all the time. You could be a 5 star scout for a few songs then go straight back down to a one star, but then back up to 5 within a few songs.
When you hit 3 stars or above you will be earning real cash which can be withdrawn via Paypal. You will be earning anything between 5 - 10p (10-20c) per track that you review. Bearing in mind that you only have to listen to 60 seconds of each track you can clock up a couple of pounds/dollars in an hour, but it doesn't touch anywhere near what you would be earning from paid work.
Investing and trading is where the real money is, but you have to be able to predict the market well - it's basically the same as a real stock exchange. However, online gambling is illegal in USA.

I joined slice the pie a while back, and I am sort of embarrassed to say that every time I try to use it, I get confused. I think I have yet to submit any sort of review!
How long does the "voucher" period go for? About how much do you earn once you are out of that "voucher" period?

Congratulations on your coming baby, but don't get yourself too stressed out online. I hope other more experienced mylotters will post a useful reply, but do look at discussions related to your concern. I just read about EON of Union Bank Philippines as a link to Paypal for mylotters in the Philippines. Check your country. Maybe it is much easier in yours. Cheers... and take care of yourself and your baby.

Good luck earning money online! Are you artistic in any way? If so, you can make money online by designing t-shirts and other merchandise and selling them on websites such as CafePress.com and Zazzle.com. It's very easy to do! Just design the types of t-shirts you'd want to wear yourself! If you have a digital camera you can make money online by selling your photos on these websites http://funonlinemoney.blogspot.com/2008/12/sell-your-photos.html You can also earn money with your photos by publishing them on the web or submitting them in contests! You can learn more about how to do that here http://funonlinemoney.blogspot.com/2009/03/ways-you-can-earn-with-your-photos.html

That is a good idea, I cant think about using our camera for an earning because it wasnt bought with my money. But with the t-shirts I can do another thing, I can imprints pics or even writings and customise them. I have a do it your self book which says how to do it. It will be a hit among youngsters. Thank you for the idea.

yes all the places i go to is safe and legit. i'm unsure about one just because a few people told me was a scam and other people tell me that got paid from this site. so it might be a site where they only pay 50 percent of their users. but i'm positive about 4 of my other websites i go on. add me as i friend and i'll share some of my sites i go on.

You sound horribly lost and confused. Married, but you've never had a bank account? I'm not mocking you, I feel for you. There are so many aspects of "real life" I don't understand cause it just hasn't come up.
I want to be sure, first, that you realize that not every plastic card that people use to purchase things with is a credit card. If you know this, I don't mean to patronize, so skip ahead. See, when you get a checking account, the bank gives you a plastic debit card. You use it like a credit card, but instead of having to pay a bill of the charges, the money automatically deducts. For the purpose of paypal and signing up, they are going to be looking for your bank account either by way of your checking account number or debit card number. A credit card isn't necessary. At least, that's my understanding.
I believe it is illegal to deduct money from your account like that, but I understand your concerns. There are a lot of scams out there. Maybe this isn't right for you?

did i say that i dnt have an account? i do have one. but after i opened an account with pay pal thy asked me to enter my accoount number...i was just wondering whether i should open a new one just for paypal. so that i wont mess things up. im very much aware of the diffrent types of plastic cards now awailable...be it credit, debit, visa, or even swipe cards...
i wanted to know the details regarding the account in bank. whether thy accept an account in nationalised bank or an international bank...

If you haven't yet, add "Make Extra Money" to your mylot interests.
And you can check out the banner links I have on my profile for a couple good, free sites to earn money on. They all payout by paypal.
