He guys, I'm tired of selling stuff on ebay and making minimal profits…
So I'm wondering, are there any legitimate ways to earn money online?
I'm probably going to get fired from my job for getting into an argument with a client.
I know I could scam people with paypal, but I'm not a cu-rrent.

I was wondering if anyone has some of those surveys that actually do what they say? Just… Anything like that. Doesn't have to be big money, even just cents… it all adds up in the end!

Thanks guy, I really appreciate it!

Thread title has nothing to do with topic?
Don't scam on PP that's terrible!
:-\ sorry you might lose job that really sucks.

Honest just start looking for another, all the online BS is so little returns for too much work.

Eh my bad, it's a quote from Killing Floor.
I'd never do it. I absolutely hate people who deceive and take advantage of trusting people.
That's the thing, it was REALLY difficult to take the job now because I have a criminal record… So close to impossible to get a job in security with a criminal record.

So your opinion is to scrap the online deal?

Even a minimum wage job will make more than any stupid intent survey ponsy pyramid scheme BS.

You could mine for bitcoins. IDK how much money that will make you though :/

Yeah man, you're right as always… Maybe I'm just being lazy…

I tried that. I downloaded the bitcoin wallet… But I'm really unsure how to actually engage a mining pool…

Yohojo is right. However, If you want to earn online do the following:

1. Research your balls off
2. Find a niche which is on demand but not with much competition
3. Make a website with various elements of that niche
4. Sell stuff
5. Put adverts on
6. Make it a priority
7. Invest
8. ????
9. Profit

Just go work in BK or something, much better money.(assuming you live in the US or something)

Yeah, I think I might file the papers tomorrow.
The boss has me by the balls on this one because he knows it's going to be difficult to find a new one… Prick.

Buying bulk items and selling over ebay can be good - just gotta find a good item.
One of my dad's friend does this and makes a few 100 pounds a week on top of his day job

Gold farm, as ironic as it sounds… coming from someone who hates Gold-Farmers; your situation puts you as a prime candidate. I would suggest merching, but I suppose you already tried that and it isn't your cup of tea.

Gold farming can be simple if you think of it logically.
Here is a layout I used to use back when I did not use fetal minds of the RS community to feed my wealth.

(Second thought, I will just PM you the way I did it… to avoid getting flamed for step by step instructions :p)

When a man has exhausted all other options I think this is a route to consider.
Good luck!

This is someting I willl certainly try, thank for the awesome idea!

Thanks for all the good ideas everyone, I'll take them ALL into consideration!

Sorry for the double post.
But are there any ways of earning a few dollars? I'm not talking about making an income, just a little extra spending money from doing things online…

You should figure out what skills you have to give you an advantage, or set you apart from other people. There are many ways to earn money online, but your best bet is to contact people individually. For example:
1. Do you know more than one language?-translating online (good pay)
2. Are you good with algebra, calculus, chemistry, writing papers?-tutoring
3. Are you good with assembly?-put together furniture, set up TV's, speaker systems for old folks
Just try to figure out what you are best at and market yourself to an appropriate audience. Don't know if there is anything like Craigslist in Australia, but that would be a place to start looking. Getting a per hour job isn't your only option, there are plenty of people looking for help with their everyday lives.
Hope I helped, Ilya.

No to the first two questions, but I can create stuff in seconds.
Hard to do that over the internet though :(
Thanks for the advice, buddy!

Not long enough as it wasn't really a holiday as I was working pretty much the whole time. Just had no access to a computer, or time if I did so it was like a holiday from here. Looking forward to christmas break though cause it will be actual time off from school.

Ah that sucks!
Don't worry, you'll get a good one soon!

@ Ilya the craigslist in AU looks pretty damn dead unfortunately
http://sydney.craigslist.com.au/

I mean, that city has about same population as my entire state & just my small town has more posts, lol

I like the freelancer sites though, you gotta be pretty aggressive

Yeah, craigslist over here is dead. We all know about it, but no one uses it.
We have gumtree.com
