One of my friends is interested in working online jobs after relinquishing offline task as he does not like to depend other person. However, I advised him not to do so as online jobs might not fulfill his needs some time and it is completely gambling even though legit. He is not listening to my words and making all kinds of arrangements to resign soon for online tasks. I am worried about it and need your suggestions to save him by showing your comments and discussions here to him This is because he would reconsider his status after seeing your advice globally, although I knew the answer.
Please help him from calamity.

Living from earnings made only online is sadly just a dream for most of us. I have been trying different ways to make money online for several years, but I never thought I could resign my regular job, I see online activities as a method of expanding my income. I hope your friend will think twice and reconsider his position after reading these comments and he will avoid doing a thing that he will probably regret very soon.

I think if you work hard at it, you can. There are a lot of call center jobs you can do online on your computer and make decent money doing it.

There is no guarantee these sites will remain. They can just disappear. It is better to hold to an off line job.

It is very difficult to live on just what you can earn from online jobs. If you are a very good writer, there may be some decent writing assignments available but those jobs are more of an one-off thing rather than long term deals. Not to forget that the competition is intense in the writers market.
The best way is to take the online job as a part time to see how it goes. If you can do well and can really earn a living, then you can quit your real world job and do it full time.
