I remember when...
I started working online in 2012. If I was able to earn $0.50 in one day, I am already happy. That is equivalent to 20 pesos here in the Philippines at that time (rate was about $1=Php40) and my bank only charges 10 pesos in bank fees if I withdraw from Paypal. Paypal charges 50, so all in all, I had to pay 60 pesos when I transfer my funds.
I only needed to support two kittens then. I had been buying them milk for babies because when I adopted them, they were still too small to eat solid foods and we don't have a mama cat at home to nurse them. I also didn't know that the milk should be lactose free. I wasn't able to check the label. Hihihi!
When my money was in my bank, I would buy them their milk and I am already happy. Hihihihi!
Do you still remember the first time you earned online?

Yup, there were times when it's below 0.50 but I always tried to reach that in one day.

the sunken ship of bubblews was my very first online money-making site, and now,, this one. ah, i earned $3 in a survey-site too, but now, i cannot increase my money there; i need just a few cents to be paid out but the surveys keep on excluding me.

Is that in VF? I got disappointed in that survey site before because I had completed a 650-point survey but they didn't give me my points. I even emailed them but they were not able to resolve my case.
I haven't answered surveys these past months because I am just too busy with my online job.

I started online earning back in 2006, I was selling online then went into paid forum posting. Then started teaching online. Been through a number of things and it's definitely harder now than before.
I gave up with online earning for a while, but have recently started back again, so will see. I remember when I got my first payouts on a paid forum called Mora Chat it was a great forum but has gone now as well.
I used to do a lot of article writing but the currency conversion was great as I lived in another country now not so great lol

Yes, but it was many years ago. Things are not as easy as they were then.

I do remember the first time I was able to earn online and I was so delighted that I shared the news to colleagues at work and encouraged them to work online as well.

That was 2009 at dneero. Com but after nine months I guess before I withdraw my. Money into PayPal through a friend. I was not able to get my din card that is why because I only have one ID at that time. Then the next was 2012 also.
