Is online work really escape route for people who really can't find decent job

I don't totally agree with this. I, for one, have a decent job but I do try to work online. Also, my online income is meager compared to what I am earning in real life work. But I do believe that some people earning big online can just drop their offline work because of convenience andwhat they are earning online is enough for them already. I guess also that those people who don't want a job in the real world will tend to try the opportunity of earning online. I also know people can be full time in earning online and doesn't really need an offline job because their time is devoted solely to online earning.

It's not an escape route but a temporary solution. There's nothing beats a decent job when it comes to assurance of getting paid. Moreover, it's hard to earn in online jobs especially if you don't have the guts to do your very best in whatever you do online to earn money.

It's not about escaping anything it's more about having alternative methods of earning and also adding an additional income to whatever forms of income people already have, yes it's convenient but it's not the only reason that people prefer this method of earning Times are hard for a lot of people and finding jobs are not that easy for everyone, also some people can not get around so easily to find jobs, and some people are physically unable to get a standard job, and some people do online earning programs to complement there regular jobs I can not speak for your brother but I don't like being a couch potato, and I'm not a couch potato, I'm just greatful that I have other ways to earn and I think a lot of other people are greatful too.

Here are many reason to justify online job.you can do it from home the main benifits.for me it has many reason.i feel realy bad to obey other,s rule.i don.t like anybody order me.and the work like marketing,selling is very odd.i hate these.i also want my own time and be my own boss.so i choose to work online.with it i can go wherevr and do my work from anywhere.can you guess now i am in train and doing this all on a speed of 110km/hour.

Hello strawberrychocodahi, In my opinion online jobs won't pay you that much that you can rely on it for feeding yourself & your family.To leave offline job just because you are earning money online i would say is wrong. Online jobs are better if you do them as part time job for additional money but i don't think it should be taken as the prime source of money for that you should always have some offline job. Your brother should understand it as he is not able to make enough money from these sites thats why he is being supported by your father for money.He should start searching for offline job as you said he is getting old.

You really can't beat good hard work in a regular job, whatever kind of job it is. But now people are searching for more ways to make a little extra income and some people just want to be in the home, in there comfort zone while they earn there dough. If you can make enough money to pay your way sittin' on your butt i say why not :)

i so dont think so. i work outside of the house with a part time job. i also have an antiques booth at an antique market. i also make and sell crafts and i do mylot to make money for paypal to purchase Christmas presents on ebay.

I work online. It was my choice so I could stay home for my kids. I made much more working in an office. But the trade off is worth it. Some people may be lazy. But most people who work from home or online are hard working folks like people who work outside the home. At least that is my experience.

For most people working online willnever be a viable alternative to a job in the real world though for some it may such as people who become popular bloggers or video makers or if they start there own business selling a product or a service.Formost people who earn money online it will just be a little extra either to make life easier or to treat themselves.For most unemployed people their online work wont become an alternative to work but any extra money helps.Personally i save the money i earn and invest into bonds that give me a decent return and this return plus any more money i have earned online i use to buy more bonds untill i have a need for this money.

It;s not an escape goat. We are many who are inclined yo work online because there are so many available jobs that correlates to my skills and needs. It doesn't matter whether I work online or to a tangible office as long as I am earning and I think it's much practical and reasonable than being feed only by parents.

I think that some people work from home because they are lazy but not all. I work from home because it is cheaper and more convenient for me. I have a daughter that I would have to pay a baby sitter and have to drag to the sitter. I have a phone job so I could very easily do this from a call center. I think some people work from home because they have a hard time dealing with people.

You subject heading seems to be true but there are people who still decide to combine a decent job and an online work to make a living. It is not too easy to make money online. This is because one has to be very creative and it also involve a lot of cost such as your time,experience,internet bills, computer, etc Many people are deceived into thinking that once they enter the internet business they will immediately begin to reap a fortune. that is not true. It takes a lot of professional skills, painstaking time and effort to get things working as far as the internet is concerned. Sometimes, you could be scammed in your attempt to make money online. It is really challenging to make money online. Those who are even making money online are not willing to reveal their secrets. They think it will make them to have an unwanted competitors.

According to me ,online job is not a simple thing and no one will pay you simply.It reqires a lot of hard work and consumes more time.I dont tell these is bad its good but we should not believe this alone.We know about ourselves and we have to choose a good one.Online job gives us more money.It can be done as partime jobs.But the important thing is that we muct be familiar with all the things and have good english knowledge. My view is that we must not totally depend on online job and be at home,We can consider these as a partime and try for job that suits our carrier.

I can't speak for other people but I use online work as a method of adding to my income when it slows down. It just adds to my income allowing my to save up for the things that I need. I have only recently discovered this site and it is helping use my time productively so I do not just waste time online I actually make a little extra cash while I am waiting for freelance work to come in.

That is a good question. for me i must work a fixed income job. I do not want to rely on some kind of work that reqires sells over the net or some kind of other work on the net. I can rely on a steady income evry two weeks and not worry if im getting payed.

For me yes it is the same as you are boss in online job because the client wait you for the job will you done.

I don't think one can earn enough to maintain a family from the earnings from online work, but may be good for time pass and avoid boredom.. i am retired after 46 years of teaching in colleges, my pension is more than enough for me. Thanks for nice discussion Best of luck. Professor

Well, I think, if you want to discover a new method to make money, you can come to online work.. The people who want to be distinguished from the conventional 10am to 6 pm job, can do online work too, they're kind of acting smart, but who cares? They get paid!

Hi strawberry! I work online since I don't have a traditional 8-5 job. And yes, I haven't been working for some time now because I enjoy working online. Still, if given the chance to work again, when the pay is good and I like the job, I'd consider going back to the labor workforce.

you can not compare decent job which give you fix and regular income.it gives a sense of economical security.my aim on internet is just to find some extra income.which I can spend for fun purpose or something important too.I think everyone want some extra income which they can use to buy or use something they desire. to earn a steady income online asks for a lot of talent,patience,skills and time to wait until you succeed here.there are some people who are conducting their business online and are successful.they do not have boss on their head they are their on boss.but I think they are very talented. it is not easy to earn from internet if you do not have any special skills.so I think a decent job is required for almost all of us.
