What do you do with money you earn online??

August 29, 2009 9:54pm CST
Do you think of it as earning some extra money or do you look at it like you could possibly one day quit your job and work on the internet for a living earning money from the various websites you are a member of.

I am nearing my first payout on mylot. I am thinking of not drawing the money but to retain it in my paypal account. Its difficult to send dollars from my country. Too many formalities. So i will use this money in paypal to join some paid sites. Transfer from paypal is not tedious..thx

I am thinking of doing that too, I have not been here long so have not had a payment yet so I might add them up in Pay Pal and then transfer them to my account at the end of the year.

For a student like me, I think my funds on my paypal account will stay there until I was able to get a card and withdraw it. For now, I want to save and save and just save my earnings online.

Sounds good, I think that earning money online could be a good second income. even a few hundred $ more would surely be a help.

i buy things i want with they money i earn online or i give it to my parents to help pay bills. do both sometimes. i use it for whatever i need at the moment. i use it for a lot of things i guess. it's nice to earn a little money online since i don't have a regular job at the moment. this is my only income right now. so its used for whatever lol

Thank you both for your responses. I have earnt about £600 this year from earning online from mostly writing reviews and I try to save it but sometimes it comes at the wrong time like when I need to use it for something. If I can save it though I like to save up for a bunch of cds or some new clothes or trainers. In the future I will save more though as I am going to be moving house soon and getting a place of my own so I will need more money.

I work hard online, save every penny I earn here and it´s enough to have a beautiful vacation anywhere I want to go. But I doubt very much that I could live on that. The most I earn is $100 a month. In my country, that won´t be enough for the supermarket for one person.

Hmmm.. I think of it as just extra income from doing what I like.. and I don't think that I can quit my day job and just rely on my online earnings.. all the earnings that I get I keep in my paypal account.. it's like a savings account for me.. maybe at the end of the year I would eventually transfer it to my bank account.

I don't ever think I could be a full time internet surfer, as nice as that would be. I use my money to buy stuff that's internet related normally: domains, hosting, etc.
