How much extra cash would you be happy with?

When you're online, using your various money making websites, how much would you be happy with each day? For me, anything less than $50 is a bit of a wasted day, as I know that I could have earned a lot more by getting a "real" job. What about you?

When working online, I always seek some lucrative result to my efforts as I spend my quality time online to put in my efforts into making a good earning. Sometimes I feel doing it in fun and sometime when working on some serious project then it becomes very hard effort. Specially working on Mylot it is always fun as there are very casual topics and you can always find something or other of your interest to work on.

I like MyLot, as there is always somebody with similar interests for you to talk to. I love being able to feel as though I am enjoying what I do while I am at work, and I am making the effort now to only use websites that I do enjoy, and skip those that no longer provide pleasure to me. You can't put a price on your happiness, so make sure that you enjoy whatever you do!

$50 a day is considered quite big earning online, considering the fact that some real jobs out there, ain't even close to $50 a day Dun be surprised to hear people earning just $800 -$900 a month, because there are really such jobs with such low pay. So be glad to be able to earn at least $50 a day, because at the end of the month, u would have earned $1500, and on top of that, it's not taxable!! haha

I only know that it's taxable if one is residing in the US or site or origin. Other than that, i'm sure it's not taxable, like those freelancer jobs in real life. After all, there's no proof of how much one is earning ^_^

Are you sure that it isn't taxable? I'm not too sure about that. I thought that any earnings were taxable. However I know what you mean about a lot of jobs not earning $50 per day. However, I like to think that I actually work a lot harder than some people who work in offices around the world. I have to stay on my toes and keep my eyes open for new investments and the like, because there's nothing for me to fall back on if one of the companies that I work for goes under. I have to be really "on the ball" with everything, and sometimes it proves to be a little too much, but most of the time I'm just happy to be able to earn for myself.

Oh right, that's a shame, you got me excited then! I'm pretty sure that online earning is taxable where I live (in the UK). I'd be too scared not to declare my earnings, as I would hate to get a huge tax bill because I hadn't been paying enough as I went along. I am self employed anyway, so I have to fill in a tax return at the end of each year and pay my tax in one lump payment. So I have to remember that I have to save up for that.

I would love to earn $50 per day online. I make less than that though. It is hard to earn that much per day online, especially if you do not have referrals who are helping you to earn more.

Yes I do admit that referrals have a lot to do with how much you make online. On most programs that I am a member of, I will earn more from my referrals than I earn from my own work, which might seem a little odd but I like it because it means that I can take a day off every now and again without having to worry about not making any money that day. Of course, some websites require that you remain active or you don't earn from your referrals, which is a little annoying if you take the day off, but these are only the minority.

I will be happy with anything that I can get because it is more than not getting anything. My business partner and I are starting a web page to sell our Native American Crafts pluse we are going to be selling on Ebay. We have sent away for sme material to help us sell products on Ebay which says that we are guaranteed to make $50.00 the first month or our money back. We will be looking into the different ways of making money doing several things using these methods that they are sending to us.

That sounds like a really good deal you've got there. It it works then you've certainly got lucky with your method. I have tried a couple of things like that in the past, but nothing has worked for me on eBay. I used to sell a fair bit on there but the fees were just too high for me to make more than a few $s profit from each item; which wasn't worth the effort it took to package them up and post them to the buyers.

Wow, that is a decent income from online sources. May be you can guide me. :)

Well the most important thing is to think about what you prefer to do, what you have the time to do, and what you have the skills to do. It's good to perhaps make some investments into a savings account or an ISA, so that you always have that income of the interest to add to whatever you earn online. For me, article writing is what I'm good at, so I've spent a lot of time perfecting that technique to ensure that I can make a living from things that I enjoy doing. When I graduate from University in 14 months, I will be able to spend even more time online and therefore hopefully earn a much better amount. Fingers crossed, anyway.

I feel like if I could make atlast $25.00 per day I would be happy. However if I could make atleast $75.00 a day I'd be even happier as I would feel like I'd accomplished something. I am looking for a real job and so any little bit I do make online helps, but I want to make money faster so that I do not need to stay so long in a bad situation like I am now.
