I have been trying to make extra money online since October 2008. It was began when I bought e-book about how to make money online. The first way that I tried was paid to click (PTC). I thought click ads do not need any skill, PTC is the easiest way. Unfortunately, every PTC site that I joined turned to scam and I never get paid.
I was not gave up. I try others PTC and others way to make extra money. Till I found Ciao.com. At ciao.com I get few dollars but it's no longer available. I have joined ciao.com just 3 months. I was so sad because ciao.com give me few dollars a month while PTC site give me just pennies.
Four months ago, I knew High Yield Investment Program (HYIP). I was thought HYIP is suitable for me. Just invest and no need to work hard. I thought that HYIP is the smart way to make money. I was invested my money in three HYIP site. Unfortunately, Two of them collapse in the last February. I lost my money total amount $150. I was very upset. I thought make money online is not suitable for me. Do I have to leave this way and try other offline business?

Perhaps you can do both. Don't give up. Maybe you could write articles for Associated Content, eHow or Helium. Perhaps you could go to a web site that hires people to perform certain tasks, like myLot. If you look under your interests above you will see that there are tasks that you can perform to make money, Facebook and Amazon both have these types of tasks as well.
You could also build your own web site. Nowadays, you don't even have to learn html or xhtml in order to build your own site. There are programs that will build the site for you. And you can store your site for free if you just search the web a little bit.
I hope that you will not give up. I have been making money online for a number of years. And each year, it seems like I find something better, so each year it is growing. However, I am sure that you noticed, no matter what I do, I always stay right here on myLot! It's a great site, and you are sure to get paid with no problems!!!

Maybe it is not your way to make money. But if you find some other ways, like writing on mylot, at least you might make some decent money, not a lot, just a little. For me, it is not the way you make yourself rich or depend on. I just need to make enough to pay my bills, that is all.

I think you can make a decent income working online. Obviously whatever you go into you have to work hard at it to make it work. I honestly think that the way to go is affiliate marketing [good explanation of affiliate marketing at http://www.affiliatemarketingintro.com ]
The website gives you a free explanation of how to set up and work your own affiliate marketing business. I think the beauty of affiliate marketing is
- If you work hard at it, you will make some money
- What you get out of it depends on what effort you invest n it
-Requires very little money to set up [website hosting fee and domain name fee]
-Building websites and blogs currently has been made so easy that it's no longer a challenge
-You can scale things
-You do not need to have your own product or store a product
The down side of affiliate marketing is it takes hours of hard work and ddication to turn things around.

Don't believe what you hear or read. There is no such thing as making easy money online. Otherwise, we'd all quit our real jobs.
It's unfortunate you lost $150, but I hoped you learned to never pay money for promises of making more money, especially on the internet.

I have been for less time than you trying to make money in the internet, but I have failed to do so, and still believe that you can only get some cents but never real money.
However, don't give up, some people can make money in the internet in the end, so who knows if you will be one of those
