Posted December 22, 2016 Author 2 minutes ago, GamingMemeKing said: Yeah, I bought some amazing book that gave me business skills that could win me the Apprentice. Basically, the goal is to watch out for emails from people who are severely ill. They will offer you something in return for an investment, like $500 processing fee for like 50 Ugandan Dollars.... What I learnt from this all-knowing book was to not do this. - Instead, tell them you will pay $1000 for the processing fee and you want 100 Ugandan Dollars!!! To buy the book: It will magically appear on your screen randomly (Or when you 'ahem', download stuff.) That sounds... ...

Posted December 22, 2016 I used to do paid surveys many years ago. Can't remember who it is from though. They were not short to do and you had to pass some qualifying questions before they let you do each one, presumably to make sure they were asking the right type of person they wanted views from. If you made it through the end you got some not insignificant Amazon vouchers for your time. Downsides are, apart from me not remembering who that was from, they weren't that frequent either so it was never a significant income stream. Still it was a nice small bonus, and I found it interesting what questions they were asking. They were all tech related so likely they were working out what to do for a next generation gadget.

Posted December 22, 2016 Proxy selling, sell thibgs you don't have on eBay that you immediately buy from some where else and ship it to the customer. also watch out for people saying electronics at low prices on forums or Chinese sites then resell. also stock market. another way, only if you have a large special media following have a "lottery" where you ask your followers to give you money for a give away. you give away one item and a second exact same item you keep. There's also being able to be a professional troll. Crt shilling can make you a lot money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted December 22, 2016 Spending ages doing surveys gives you something. I probably made about £90 in amazon vouchers over about 2/3 years. Not really worth the time though, since with a proper paying job you can make that in a day. I worked from home for some time. You still need the job though, i was just doing it over the internet.

Even if you had 4x SLi Titan X, it would not be worth it and it would use more energy than coins you mine. Furthermore, there is dedicated rigs (there's a name for them, but can't recall.) Which allows you to soley focus on mining and is like 1000 times more efficient than a PC. If you're referring to Bitcoin mining then you're correct. Otherwise, you're very wrong about GPU mining not being profitable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted December 22, 2016 I "made" money from donations for creating and releasing script packages for Arma 2/3 DayZ and related spinoff mods. I say "made" in quotes because my goal wasn't to earn any kind of income, I only set up a donation method after repeated requests to make such an option available. I wouldn't recommend donations as a money-making method at all, unless you were some hugely popular Twitch streamer with 10K-100K+ followers (then again, such people probably have sponsorships...). I also didn't spend much of the money on myself, I used most of the donation money to buy a legit copy of Arma 2 for myself (reasons) to continue my code-writing hobby and a copy of Arma 3 + DLCs when it was released to continue supporting my users who would move to A3.

Posted December 23, 2016 It depends upon your goal or expectation of making money online, people who purely aim at cold hard cash will suffer burn out vs enjoyment from it. Microsoft Rewards(formerly known as Bing Rewards), you get paid to search with Bing with Edge & your mobile device. There is also points to earn if you buy anything from Microsoft's Store which is useful at times. (buying a Raspberry Pi 3 is slightly cheaper if bought during a free case promo) Surveys, Amazon mturk, etc are time consuming but the payout can be worthwhile. Sites which give 5-12% cash back in the form of points from using their affiliate link while shopping is another option, I've done this for all my shopping and it pays off----for the most part I don't always find Amazon being cheaper unless I need an item shipped faster. (on average Amazon's Prime Shipping has been late by an extra day or two and at that point I can't justify buying everything from them, if you want my business you'll need to earn it) Crypto-coin is a mixed bag for mining as the exchange rates are hard to predict unless you monitor the trend long enough to know when to sell or exchange to said currency. Some of the alt-coins aren't worth mining unless you have hardware optimized for that kind of mining and difficulty keeps rising so you're still reinvesting money into hardware to get the same mining results in some cases. Try working on community projects with a donation option, you'd be amazed small "improvements/mods" to games, opensource and whatnot can be worth your time. Write How-To guides as a blog then also sell them as a Kindle eBook on Amazon so people who loved the blog edition can support your work. Write reviews of products, on Amazon you can earn a Vine account which allows you to get stuff for free to review and keep... typically I sell some of the stuff I no longer need which helps pay the bills. DIY projects which you sell the item you've been working on, in the past I did this via Twitch on a separate account and it was amazing "DIY" streams are popular. Twitch streaming can be profitable if you're willing to have viewer interaction. Post videos onto YouTube, just like Twitch it can be profitable if your channel becomes popular--my friend shares a YT because a single person channel is hard to please a wider audience and the variety of projects/topics has helped grow the subscriber base. I've made money and got a lifetime unlimited licensing of a program that I used for work, the developer loved my templates so much they became "bundled" with the stock program and some of the newer templates were rolled into major upgrades. The program wasn't well known back in the mid-2000s, I liked their desktop publishing product so much that I gave away templates and the developer was impressed by community support.
