well this is really one of the biggest questions that you encounter when you earn online. But personally, I have seen people earning a lot online. They have retired from their desk jobs and getting cash from the internet. These are the people I like to emulate. The 2nd kind of earners online is this one: I enjoy what I do online but I think I can only earn a few dollars here so it doesn't really matter for me if I earn big or not what matters for me is that I earn something. The 3rd kind is the one I hate. They say "ALL EARNING ONLINE IS A SCAM" this is really the people I hate. Its really up to you on what kind earner online are you.

Unless you're talking about those online jobs which can earn at least a five figure salary, otherwise, it's impossible to rely on online income. No matter how hard you work, the most you can only get a 3 figure each month and it's really not enough. Online money making is just a past time among people nowadays and it would not get to the extend of getting a lot of money without having to work. So, I would say, it's not enough for us.

It really depends. I have friends who have online works and they earn more than I do.

Definitely not, we can not rely on online income. I will give you an example that one day you may get 100$ but the other day you may get nothing. Online income is not regular such as our salare in short it is unstable so you can not rely only on your online income. Happy mylotting. Regards, harry, :-)

This is really a challenging question. But for me I answer is really simple. If you have a good strategy in Online Money Making you will prosper but if you aren't then it always best to have a stable job.

Honestly, I don't think that this is entirely possible. I don't think that we can rely solely on online income. Maybe it is possible, but I have to see it myself before I would consider it or something. From my personal experience though, I don't think that it is possible to do this.

jagjit273, Its been a while now since I have this thought also. I haven't made much yet to quit my offline job but still I quit because I want to be free. I did not feel happy all this while in the office making me miserable. Luckily father is there to support me but I wonder how long. So right now I am thinking of returning to my ex so that he can support but unfortunately he doesn't make much at this moment and I am ashamed to say that although I am a secretarial graduate, I am unable to hold on to a job that I loves. It always come back to me thinking that I am not destined to be in the offline world and only online world. So, returning to your question "Can we rely online income?" Answer is yes and no. If you have programming skills you can take back some projects from your local country also and do it at home. If you doesn't have any skills you earn penny each month and I guess if I do not tell you to leave, you will also leave someday! I am telling you that I have depression and I can't work fulltime in the office, so does it make sense that I can only rely online jobs? Answers is depends. Someday I will when the sky is clear and the sun is shine enough for me. HAPPY GO LUCKY

Good question my friend, but to tell you seriously this all depends on you. I do believe that there are certain professions and skills that people have in order to work steadily online. If you are a programmer, a computer artist, a professional photographer, a duly licensed person who renders services to people like engineer, doctor,lawyer then I guess you can earn online very well. If you also own a domain website that has a good page rank and traffic perhaps you can leave your office job and just sustain your site. But if you are not that person I have mentioned above, chances are your income will be limited and it will take you time before you see the fruit of your labor. Earning online is good but I do consider it as a part time job and an extra money, not my main source of income. Perhaps people here who have been online for a year or more can attest that it is really hard to earn money online since sites do come and go and referrals are not forever. But it is still your choice, experience is the best teacher still, you will come to know.

For some people it is possible, but for most people it is not. It is really hard to earn enough online not to need anything else, and most people never get to that point. But if you are clever, work hard and are very patient, you can do it! It will just take you some time.

i am not relying ion any online income, i will definitely seek for a permanent job after my studies. for now making money online is both fun and help me in making me purchasing some things like clothes and books i desire but i am not earning much to rely completely on online income.

You can depend your living here in online if you are professional mented to work online, but if you are say 2-3 times online, or unable to use internet just want only to do online, its impossible to depends on. For me if you are out of course for online it is very difficult to depend on. However, if your interest to do that might be but it will take some times to fulfill. enjoy and see you around
