Most people who are searching for earning opportunities online look for free money making opportunities..I did so when I joined the net in 2006 but after all these years of trial and error finally even though earning some money online I admit that most part are from paid programs or from investments..very less from free programs but see that most people fall for free earning programs and continue to do hard work to receive meager payments for the time they spend online working..Now I have learned my lessons and trying to mend my working style to earn good online and now I am working with two programs which both cost $10 per month but I believe that if you want to set a long term business and earning income like $3900 a month one should invest this much and some time working to achieve the goal..By the way I know it is not impossible to earn $10 a month working online so I am working to set my base programs.The good thing is apart from the affiliate plan I can use the services they offer to have my online presence like my own website.how about you friends.

I do have some free programs wherein I earn a decent amount of money as well as paid ones. In terms of earnings, the paid ones such as online investment programs offers greater amount of earnings depending on how you use it. But basically, paid programs offers more.

It depends on your own choice if you do not want to invest no one is going to force you to do this,but on the reverse if you do want to make some good income each month you need to find good programs to invest so you earn instant income to answer your needs..but if you are happy with the free to work sites like this one and others and a cashout in six or seven months spending a lot of time being online its your choice offcourse but for me I always look for passive income where in I can set something to work for me that earns me money even if I do not come to net for a month or so..Thanks for sharing.

Yes you are right, I just think so many go to scam that its not a great idea to invest in many. Even a site that has paid us for 4 years or more can go scam. Take care there.

It seems that is indeed the reality when it comes to online earning. The higher amount we put in the higher we also get in return. But it also depends on whether the program is reliable or not.

You are right. We cannot earn big through online programs unless we invest our money. And that is where it turns to be more risky than free programs. It is better to have a good review about the program before investing our funds anywhere, so that it would minimise our risk atleast to some extent. Also we should know when to enter the program and also be alert to exit the program at the right time with profit.

yes of course each of us should do it before joining any program.It helps in saving valuable dollars but from my experience I can tell you something that there are some programs which are of such type unless you invest some money you will not be able to know their potential.

You are very right about investment online because I believe many people have been scammed and they fear they may lose much more when they invest. And in most cases, one hardly know what a website offers or how to use its services fully.
Sometimes, I do wish there are real-life friends who have walked the walk, even if they had invested online with real money and succeeded, and show to people like me how to take the same walk. It will be easier to trust someone whom you know to take the plunge of investment. There is some pain involved during personal research into what works and what doesn't.
An income of $3900. Wow, that's very attractive. I wish you well. Till I find a program that can pay so much (and hopefully soon), I will keep looking or working on current programs, and hoping to find the gold in the wild.

I have been working online for a year now and I can say that yes I am still afraid to deal with investment opportunities because I don't have enough knowledge yet on these matters. But I am trying my best to make researches in order for me to have knowledge and eventually can be able to partake on these activities. I know from other friends from here that earning through investment are really a good source of income.
As of now I am earning some amount from free sites and one of those is myLot. I am also interested to know how you could earn such amount so if it is okay with you kindly share it with us. Have a nice day!

Now as you are already doing some free sites and earning but at the same time you already know that this is not a good monthly income which can suitably compensate your efforts or you can leave other earning opportunities.The other thing is researching,testing and trying programs to learn which ones work takes out too much time and some money too which you can bypass if you can rely someone or follow someone who shares good info with you whom you can follow to achieve your income quickly without wasting much time on searching and learning things yourself though gaining self experience is the best way so far I would say.

Yes its true that the cream is with filling the matrix but if you are able to earn the monthly fees using the products they offer or though your own efforts working online and you know they are a very trusted program like gdi it is more likely that you will stay with the program till you achive you goal to earn in the long term like you put $240 as funds to pay for two years and with your effort try to fill the matrix within this time with set goals and strategic planning you can earn good monthly income later.. is possible I hope you have already read what I have said above..Thanks for posting.

It's really hard to get referrals on matrix system and we need fund to pay monthly fee to stay on the matrix site. We need also to find out what is the best stable and sustainable matrix website to make sure that the subscription didn't go into vain. Because as we all know we are not just making money on matrix in a day but we need longer time to earn and cash out...

I have noticed that some work online site that requires investment or paid programs give good money or decent amount of money for people so as to pay the bills like affiliate marketing and so on, rather than free programs. There are free programs that can give us a decent amount of money too, but I notice that mostly is the paid program.
I have been searching for how many years about free program that will pay me a good money, which I can work on my own or let us say I can work as a self-contractual, but most of the free program I see is most of their rate is low rather than paid program where most people can earn a living online.
Well, that is just only my observation.
