Hi guys, I am sure most of us here have been paid by freelance jobs, ptcs and other income generating sites. So what have you done with your monthly payout? My online earnings were well spent I was glad to help my siblings with their needs since school started this month. I got one of my sisters a new pair of eyeglasses that she badly needed. And bought all of them school supplies, shoes and bags. I was happy even if there was nothing left that I had planned to save up in the bank. It was a money well spent because it was not "spend it all on me" but was able to bless my family in my own little way. For that I am grateful I have this online job and I hope to have 2 more freelance job hope someone would soon hire me or learn of new legit sites. How about you what will you spending your money on this month?

I just saved last months and haven't done anything with it yet. With this months payment, I think I am going to use it to invest in my online earning activities, to try and make more.

I'll tell you one I have had great success so far with: Triond. I have probably earned around 210 dollars with it by now, in only about 5-6 months of using it. And, I only really used it a maximum of like 30 minutes a day, sometimes going weeks without doing anything on it. I just found a good way to earn with it.

Yes, I do that too sometimes. It is sort of nice, and you can also save a lot by doing this. Many things are way cheaper on Ebay than in stores where I live, so I can really find good deals this way, which is great!

That's very nice of you. I am guessing you earned a lot that past month to be able to provide your love ones with their needs. My online income last month was not that big so I just kept it in my paypal account. I am planning to save up all my online incomes till December. I am planning to buy our home a new sofa set or pay for installation of tiles in our living room. Months ago, I used to spend my online earnings at the grocery, but since I am saving up for that sofa, I am keeping all of them safe, sound and intact in my paypal account.

You are probably earning a lot also to be able to spend it for a grocery expenditures.

#joiemarvic: I earned quite a bit last month not that big though but enough to buy some stuff here and there. Do you not get scared of loosing your money in paypal? I noticed that paypal exchange rate if you are not from the U.S low compared to what banks would give you or money changers.

Hi candy I use my online earnings for paying my internet bill. I am not making much money here and my internet bill is considerably high.

@shsaad: I am sorry to hear that. I have never tried HYIP and forex and everything that deals with investing money. I try free sites online.

I myself and my husband are using all our online earnings for a few things. All checks we get are used to pay off credit cards as every bit helps. The rest of the money is saved in a special fund which we are using to purchase a property as an invest in around 2 years time so we have more time to save and build up. Of course we have many Amazon gift cards which are being used to help purchase a GPS for ourselves for future adventures.

that sounds great! I wish I could earn more online and be able to buy a house with my earnings. That would definitely be wonderful as I can live on my own and not pay rent. I really do think that renting is an awful waste of money, money you could have save investing on properties you can own.

It may take sometime to save but well things do not happen overnight unless with a streak of luck you win the lottery lol. But that is 0 chances for me since I do not even bet in the lottery! lol...but here is to savings and investments!

I agree 100% with you. You can always start by saving and trying to get a few more referrals here and there and building things up. If you believe in yourself I believe you are able to achieve anything.

May I ask what your online job is that you were able to spend much for your family? To think that it is only for a month.

Sometimes I save earnings, and sometimes I spend it on somthing I need or really want, it just depends on the moment I guess and what is needed or if there's an inexpensive item that I want, but most of the time I spend earnings on important needs and essentials.

That's a great way to spend your earnings. Sometimes we have to spend a bit for ourselves and the at the same time share it with others who may need help.

Hi, In my case I wait for the amount to accumalate to 150 dollars before I withdraw the amount from my paypal account to my bank account just to save on the charges .Once it is remitted into my bank account I just leave it there to again add up so that I can open a fixed deposit when there is a substantial amount.It does take a long time but it is at least something to look forward to...all the best

Hi candyfairy,
I save all my earnings for vacations. My budgert does not include vacations or travelling and I like that very much. So I earn and save all year until I get a chance to go somewhere.
The last vacations I had were not so far because I spent part of the money in some extras I needed for my shoulder surgery. Still, they were awesome. I went for 10 days to the south of Chile, my country. It´s a part of the country with lakes, volcanoes and hotsprings. I´ll post a picture of an awesome sunset there.
Happy posting!

Hi Candyfairy, am so happy for you and the way you could help your family with your earnings, its such a wonderful experience and as you have them GOD will surely make more come your way.
For me I am saving for a laptop as mine have crashed and since I can't do without one I have to ignore spending my earnings this month and next month. Trying to get more freelance jobs too especially writing so I can easily achieve that feat the coming month pay-out.
Hope you achieve more nest month, Happy Mylotting.

Thanks shynepapin101 for your kind words. I also wanted to save money for a laptop since I share with everyone and cannot earn more because of the limited time I spend here. However seeing the needs of siblings I placed my need aside. I plan to save the next 2 months earning to buy a new laptop and hopefully get a 2nd and 3rd freelance job to augment my income.

Wow that's great. Good thing you are using your online income to something really helpful. As for me I don't earn that much online so I just keep my earnings to paypal until it is large enough that I need to withdraw it. This can help me in paying my bills.

I saved mine, that is what I usually do unless I have something very special in mind. But your spending was much more noble of course, it is great that you are helping your siblings! (I would do the same if I had siblings that needed my help, but I don't, so I can be selfish and do whatever I want)

I feel about helping my siblings especially when it comes to education. As much as I can I like to buy them stuff that they want and those that they need so they will be inspired to study well. But I do not do this all the time as I do not like to spoil them but when badly needed and special occasions like birthdays and Christmas I give in to their whims. Sometimes I just buy stuff for them without reasons but that's when things are on sale and they would be needing it anytime soon.

that would be a nice way to spend it your hard earned money. I bet they did appreciate it more than words can say. I also plan to take my siblings out for camping during their semestral break. That would be a god time for us to catch up and bond with each other.

My husband and I are saving up the money we earn online just in case we do get to go on vacation. We are going with his parents, to whom say there is no need for us to pay for ourselves, but we want to atleast help. If we don't spend it on the trip we may save it or we may spend it, there is just no telling.
