How much would you need to earn online to make minimum wage in your country?

techweb @techweb (217) • United States 13 Oct 12

I find it interesting that in so many of these discussions that involve how can you become wealthy online, people don't mention what country they live in. The current minimum wage in the US for any state is $7.25/hour. I would be...

vastari Minimum wage in Ireland is €8 an hour, so that's a little over $10 an hour. I'd have to do an insane amount of work to earn that much online. If, as in your example, I had to click on ads to earn it, it would require about ten different sites and on each one...

What other tips do you know?

sergedan @sergedan (767) • Romania 12 Oct 12

A really rich guy I know told me that, when negotiating, I should deliberately speak slowly because it shows confidence and diminishes the appearance over-eagerness. So I was wondering what similar tips did you receive?

vastari Make sure to always be polite, and have a firm hand shake. It shows you're confident in yourself, and besides, nobody likes a limp handshake. Try and maintain eye contact as much as you can while talking with them as well, it's polite and also shows that...

Conscience over Money

Shavkat @Shavkat (139933) • Philippines 12 Oct 12

What if, you are on the sidewalk going to work. Then you step into a white envelope with money inside. There is no any indication of the ownership, are you going to keep it? If you are going to return the money, to whom? What will...

vastari I'd always hand over the money. While it would be nice to have the bonus cash on hand, I'd be worried about who it belonged to and I'd feel really bad just in case somebody who really needed it had lost it. This actually happened to a friend of mine. A lot of...

vastari I too hate scam sites, and there are painfully few websites which do not turn scam. It is hard to find legitimate sites which will actually continue to pay people these days, so I stick to MyLot because it has proven itself legitimate over the years.

Writer's block on Mondays!
