Fed Up With PTC

For the past month or so, I have not been very active on the PTC sites. I have become increasingly frustrated with the whole PTC industry and at this point am considering giving up on them altogether.

While I know that there are many people out there that make quite a bit of money with Paid to Click sites, I have also found that in order to do that you have to either get in and build a downline early and/or spend money to upgrade or purchase referrals. And even after all that there is no guarantee that the site will pay or even stick around long enough for me to reach cashout. Since has happened to me quite a few times recently I am not sure I am willing to waste more time or money in hopes of an eventual payout. For now I think I am just going to stick with more reliable money making opportunities like paid blogging and ChaCha.

First Payu2Blog Payment

As I mentioned previously, I have already received my first payment from Payu2Blog. Payu2Blog makes payments every 2 weeks via PayPal. The payments that I received was for 2 posts, each paying $5. Oh I should also mention that their scheduled payday was supposed to be on October 10th but they sent payments out 2 days early! Gotta love that!

Finding Your "True" Love

As I have mentioned before, I am a single mom. At 35 years old I have never been married. I have had a few relationships and was even with Mya's father for several years, but in the end, for one reason or another, things just didn't work out. So, like many others out there, I am still searching for Mr. Right.

Now I know that there are several ways to meet your future "Prince Charming". Two of the most common ways of course are through the workplace or at a bar/club. But as a single mom that works from home, I don't really get a lot of opportunities to get out there.

Recently one of my friends (who also happens to be 35 and single) suggested I turn my search to the internet. She also mentioned that she has recently discovered a great new website called True.

Unlike other internet dating/matchmaking sites that charge you a fee to join, at True you can search for free! They also offer free coaching and matchmaking services and if you have a webcam you can also participate in live video chats.

I have already signed up and have just begun to search through some of the photos and profiles. I have to say that I am impressed. Sign up is free so, if you are looking to find your "Tue" love, why not join and give them a try?

Payu2Blog

A couple weeks ago I submitted my personal blog to another paid blogging site called Payu2Blog. Last week I found out that my blog had been accepted and they have already been sending me assignments. In fact, I have already received my first payment!

Payu2Blog is differs from PayPerPost in several ways. For one thing, they pay (by Paypal) every 2 weeks. Also, they send you the assignments that they would like you to complete. I like that because you don't have to go searching for opps. or fight other bloggers for them. You also have more time (usually a couple days) to complete the assignments.

Since I started with them (on Oct 2nd) I have completed 8 assignments, each paying $5, and have 2 more that I still have to write. So far I am very happy with Payu2Blog!

Need Investment Advice?

Recently I was talking to my sister and she was complaining about how this was the first year she has ever lost money on her investments. I had been thinking of investing myself but after talking to her, and seeing all the recent news reports on the current state of the economy, I have been very hesitant to do so. I decided that before I commit to any investments I need to do some research to see what would be the best route to take. I was also hoping to find some information that could benefit my sister as well.

After a few days of searching the net, I came across a great site called Inner 8. Inner 8 is a place where you can go to gain access to powerful tools, get ideas, and share advice before you invest.

Inner 8 was created by some of the veterans of E*Trade, who understand that the technology, communities and analytics available today are the next generation of advice. When you join the Inner 8 community, you will be matched up with other members that can help you in reaching your financial goals.

Paypal Payment from Pinecone Research

I have received another payment from Pinecone Reaearch. I really like that they are now making Paypal payments. I am still getting about 2-3 surveys a month from them, as well as a couple of product tests. Definitely one of the best paid survey companies out there.

ChaCha Expeditor- Update!

I passed the ChaCha Expeditor test! I have already stated working as an Expeditor and I love it! So far I have only been able to work a few hours here and there but as of this morning I have earned $13.56. I like that I can log in and work whenever I have time, which at times may be for only 10 minutes.

My goal is to make between $150=$200 by the end of October, which shouldn't be that hard to do. I have noticed that (for me) the busy hours, with the highest number of queries coming in, seems to be between 8-11pm est. There are times where I have been working later at light/early morning where the queries may only come in every 3-4 minutes. I also love that I can stay logged in and take queries in between working on other things...or while I am just sitting here watching TV.
