Stretched Too Thin

I'd love to work from home but am afraid of the legalities of filing taxes with all the money being made. Only after $600.00 do they need be filed, but I've also read recently that regardless the amount it still needs to be claimed. The uncertainty of it all clamps me from persuing more items. I'd much rather just mylot for a bit of money. I have a fulltime job outside of mylot, and want to get another part time job as well. I, at one time, had planned for mylot to become an income for when hubby and I get pregnant... but with how much time would need to be spent, I'd be much better using this as a second or third income with realization that the most I'll make is pocket money. In any case, I have tried stretching myself thin online and it only proved to stress me when goals were not met or things were not as easy as they seemed.

Oh my. I would say so. I don't do any of the writing sites like it sounds like you do (although I want to get into them! Somehow someway.) But I am on at least 5 other survey sites, and one other PTP site besides MyLot. I sometimes wonder if I invested ALL of my time into ONE site, if I'd come out in a better place than I do by getting 5 different checks/Paypal transactions a month. But oh well.

Trying to juggle too many things can prove to be ineffective. Now I only concentrate on a handful of programs that generate the most income. The more money the better! As fas as taxes go, that's just comes with the territory. By the way... If you work and have a side business such as online, you could possibly reduce your overall tax liability - and you may receive money back from Uncle Sam!

I have cut back on the amount of different things I do online because I believe that focussing on just a couple of things versus many is just as profitable as spending a little time on each. For example aside from my writing I have been working on MyLot and Microworkers and during the holidays I only had time to be on one so I chose MyLot and the amount of money I’ve made has not been any less than when I worked for Microworkers as well for the same amount of time. I think it is better to simplify things; much less stressful!

I have found that organization is a must. Some days I just can't get to everything that I had planned on doing. I try to break it up....blogs one day, websites or forums the next..etc. With all the different online earning avenues..you have to make decisions on which pay you more for your time or which you just simply enjoy doing. I enjoy most of what I do online. Sometimes the coding I do for my websites gets to me. When that happens, I find me another outlet...usually housework..lol
