So I thought I need to jot down the progress of my this month's efforts. For some reason i found that most of my online earnings are drying up. And this makes it hard for me to move ahead apart from my day job salary. I want to free myself from working all the time online and offline all the day. And with online sources drying up it is becoming harder everyday to do that. Here's what I am planning for before the end of this year: - * Using online earnings to buy products to sell on amazon and ebay * Register company name if possible * Find alternative skill instead of casual chat and article writing projects That's the plan here onwards hope things go well.

I hope your plans work. The last time I was paid more money online was when Bubblews was on. Still it never worked very well and finally it ended.

@skysnap I did too. I bought my freezer and a pressure cooker when my daughter had her 50th birthday.

Yes, I wished to setup the store with that money. But instead I spent money on the bike. I appreciate the money earned on bubblews :)

It's good to review the progress always. I am thinking about planning for my online work too. Do you buy the products from Amazon & eBay, or some other sites? So, you'd like to register your company name for doing this business? Good luck in your business!

Yes I wish to buy things to sell and sell it on amazon or ebay. Mostly initial capital will be from my online earning. This is to setup a steady business.

Starting a small business seems like the best option. Might as well make money for yourself instead of making lots of money for others and only a little for yourself.

I hope for your success in all your endeavors. How long have you been an independent freelancer? I would love to be like that in the future.

@skysnap Wow! It is quite long. How did you get your skills in freelancing? Do you attend seminars?
@skysnap (20153)
24 Jul 16
@annierose No. I learned from youtube and just applied to random places. and some places I got reply and built my portfolio from there onwards.

It's been 6 years. I also work full time but not much earning from it so had to freelance.

Good luck with your plans - it's difficult to earn much online isn't it?

@skysnap .. No.. not easy...I don't think making more than 10000 INR pm. on average in an year is feasible with online work.

I think that you should invest 5%-15% of your online earning on anything that gives 100% sure profit,except re-selling.
@skysnap (20153)
24 Jul 16
good idea. I wonder if online selling of products gives that profit.

@skysnap No no no.Take 5%-15% of your profit and invest it in developing or to people that need money(so u get 5%-15% of their profit).If you get me

It sounds like you have come up with a good plan to invest and earn. I guess we have to do something, since online earning opportunities just aren't what they used to be. Best of luck to you.

Online earnings are only for specific bills. In my case ...charities now. So it can't possibly hurt me too much kind if I earned less or more. Planning to live on online earnings is kind of odd for me. I could never do that! I don't think it is possible to survive in any part of the country for less than 20000 INR (inclusive of rent). Therefore, it amazes me when it is thought of as supplementing stuff either. Agreed care givers have no choice so they may be left with no options. Likewise, retired people would be happy enough supplementing their incomes. For the rest, it is necessarily regular job, and if money is short, another part time job. Last year I did earn well. But this year, my earnings have dwindled.

True that. But if you see the outside scenario many IT companies are basically doing what the freelancers are doing as a solo person. Here the jobs are real, unlike mylot and bubblews stuff. People are living under 15K in big cities too. It is possible but it'd be too tiring and mental drain to live off such low income. Another thing is that unless you take online projects seriously, you'd never make them as business and go over the job part. Many people are setting up business of their amazon shop etc. Also some are replacing real job with freelancing. It's possible but requires too much hardwork and regular clients. Regular job can be good but too hard long term.

Sounds good, my sister sells on ebay and I would love to do it if I could ever get started. I tried it once and didn't do well. I need to learn more about what sells.
@skysnap (20153)

yes that's where i am stuck right now and not buying stuff in a hurry.

I really can relate to your post. I am relatively new to the online passive income world. It seems the best quality one can possess is patience and seeing thru the plan. Something i have been getting into are survey and music forums. I have gotten payouts from inbox dollars and cash crate but they can take a very long time to reach the required amount for payouts. I have also used musicxray and slice the pie. None of these pay a lot but it seems that if you follow a plan, over the course of a month you can have a small steady income flow if you go in everyday. The exception is with musicxray - no matter what i do i just cant seem to get any new songs to load.

yes, if we however remain in earning cents then it never grows up to bigger dollar. that's where we end up suffering. and have to push through.

I know how tiring it is to work all day and get paid less. You have set wonderful goals for this year. What's the company name about? Are you planning on any online business other than writing? If yes, Best of Luck to you!

yes planning to start online product selling business. it will take years for it to take off. but have to start somewhere.
