We get used to them and even ignore the frequent invitations – join to make big money, even thousands a week, just spending few hours a day online.
I do not know whether to laugh or cry at times. It looks like a sick joke too when we know the truth. We are asked to part with money chasing rainbows in the end.
Are they all scams? Is there an iota of truth in them? No need for experience is also touted as an enticement. Then why should anyone pay such sums? I have been ignoring them as I am afraid registering and giving personal data can open a can of worms.
I am curious about your feelings seeing them stare at you all day and have you had any experience worth sharing?

There is no way to get rich quick online, if there was, wouldn't it be more well-known and confirmed?

Well I just ignore them. I would prefer something that follows proper path and has a strict set of rules and follow legal regulations.

A few sites have paid well over the years and for that I am thankful. However, it was work, will always be work, that earned the money. It seems many think there is a secret we are keeping and it is not to work continually on the right path.

Yes, that is the secret - give more than take - that has served me well in real life too.
After forty years of work, I was still needed as they knew I will not let them down but family commitments away from work life made me to call it a day.
I have been on online sites for eight years and know few who go the extra mile to benefit the sites.
There is always room at the top, but one has to reach it by dint of hard work - siva

I ignore all of them. It is a scam and you can't trust what you don't know. I never give out my personal information. The other day there was a newby here on myLot who asked if he could make a thousand dollars here on myLot in a year? What a silly question. Of course we responded with our own knowledge, (I make $5 every two or three months). I wonder where they get the idea that they could earn thousands... As far as I can see they only way to make that much is to get a really good job.

@Shiva49 I remember Bubblews, a similar site like this one and I made a ton of money - have no idea the exact amount but they were giving it away until they disappeared. I missed my friends from that site and then heard from one that told me about this site. I like it here and no I will never get rich here, but the people here are priceless.

Interesting line of discussion.
With all of these types of issues, I always try to think of a possible spiritual reason behind these things, especially the ones that are hard to explain, or to understand, why they are as they are.
What is the spiritual reason behind scams?
The enormity of the world allows for the freedom of scammers to operate, being linked into the negative side of that world.
Do not cross the line into this side, and leave it to operate on its side, whilst you, as much as you can, stay in the light of love and positiveness.
In this way, your additional substance (i.e. your presence in the World) is being additively positive, or is adding to the world, rather than adding to the negative, and so taking away from the world.
(Taking away, in the sense, that I believe, that we are all ultimately here to grow the World into a better place, not a worse place. We are to bring it closer to Heaven, not to Hell)

Do not try to catch the whole world, but don't let parts of it catch you either!! See the beauty in it!

@Shiva49 I have even noticed that some start off legit, paying you well, but then either they get taken over by somebody not as good, or they drop some of the initial attractors, once they are up and running.
They then become hardly worth the effort anymore, so I will drop these then, and move onto another, that I have been checking out in the meantime.

Thanks Steve, a philosophical take that I always try to find comfort in during tough times.
It takes all kinds to make a world and variety is the spice of life. I have a view our creator wants that in every way be it faith, point of view, behavior. The world is a classroom!
It is up to us what way we want to take. Temptations are there to test our resolve. Thankfully, I know the pitfalls not to fall victim especially now when it is too late in the day to recover from such! I posted this as there are always the few who get burned in such scams. They say no experience needed; that says it all - calling out to the newbies, easy prey! siva

@innertalks Yes Steve, this take is realistic and practical to make some money!
I should look into freelance sites and some are around for years and have good reviews too.
Of course, it is a different ball game altogether working to meet client's needs and, hopefully, that will lead to meeting our needs too! siva
