    I was looking into additional sources of income and online surveys came to my attention. Does anybody do these? What is a good site to do them through? I feel like I'm getting scammed when I read about them, but I have heard of people using them for some extra cash. I'm sure I won't make much, but anything extra helps.

    Peace :)

    i wasn't aware you could make money from that, unless it's the sort of thing where you fill out the survey and get entered into a drawing...

    I did for like 5 days, Lucky put me on to it. but it got so monotonous sitting at my desk for half an hour at a time, trying to decide something like which brand of chewing gum has most influenced my life when I don't even chew gum, so I decided I didn't want the $50 that bad and maybe I should go and find a real job anyway.

    so where can you sign up for this? if I could earn fifty bucks by spending a couple hours answering questions on the internet, I'd totally be down.

    I have a friend who does that, but it is too boring for me answering questions that I don't find interesting for only a few cents.

    I did it for a while...90% of it is scams. A lot of them are just sweepstakes for taking the survey so I got tired of it. I might have made like $10 total in 3 months of surveys

    The only things i've seen like this is where they want you to pay them before anything happens. I'm not gonna pay money when i'm trying to MAKE money.

    I considered getting a job doing medical transcription stuff, but after i applied and all that they were like "give us 400 dollars for this program you have to use to do it." and i was like "uh, no."

    I've seen those Pay us first sites. I don't trust them, and besides, the only reason I'd be filling out boring surveys is because I have no money to spend in the first place.
