Waa! I'm trying to earn some money and I let my blogs go! I'm back, however, see??
One would think it would be easy to find a way to earn a living on the internet, right? I mean there are a gazillion surveys that promise either an entry into a "lottery" to win money, or they promise a huge prize. All you have to do is fill out the survey. Sounds simple enough. But then when you select all "nos" on the offers, you come to a page that tells you that you must select at least one offer.
An "offer" is really a purchase of some kind. It's supposed to be a free offer, but it has an automatic "membership" along with billing once the trial period is over. They have magazines, life insurance, book clubs, record clubs, health insurance, vacation time sharing, diet products, beauty products, and what ever else you can think of. I got suckered into several of them and am trying to stay on top of things so I don't have to lose the farm, so to speak.
Now that's not all. I am gifted with spam by the truck load each day. I wanted to get paid for surveys online, not pay the surveys! All these greedy little people suck you dry while under the guise of helping you to make money! What is a ditz to do???

I'm glad you're back. I guess things aren't always what they seem. Live and learn I guess.

Tell me about it. In an ideal world, people like us would be able to surf the net all day and get paid for it. I hate that. Damn scams. :)

You've gotta go for the fast, click for point ones. That's the only way I had any success. Gift cards!
Peace.........
PS-You will have more spam than you can fry in hell!

They pay through the mail, (check) but I have been at 4 or five times through them in the last 6 months. and sometimes I get to do trial surveys. I got free toilet paper once. lol

Hi, Trudie, thanks for reading my blog tonight.
I think that I will refrain from clicking anything with "offers"; I sure can't afford it - it sounds like!

Oooooh - Crosby Stills Nash and Young! Minus the latter. Excellent reference!

Gads, I hear ya! I have tried several of those "offers" and they all end up as scams to sell something, enroll in something, or "get one free after you buy a dozen".
No thanks to all. I am trying Ad Sense on my blog, but no one is clicking on them, so I am at zero dollars there too - LOL!
I like your style and humor, wish I had some encouraging information! Stop by my blog sometime, have a giggle, at least they're free - LOL!

Hi! Thanks for dropping by my blog with encouraging news regarding Adsense - glad to know there is some hope there!
Best wishes to you! Keep up the good work!
