Extra cash from paid surveys.

Hi all welcome back,

I live in Las Vegas, NV, home of the high rollers and big losers. It’s a fun town. It really is and I don’t even gamble. I hate to gamble; it makes me all nervous inside. That is not to say I have never put a dollar in a slot machine. It is hard to avoid all those bright lights and payout signs. I have even won a couple of times. I’m kind of cute I’m told; I get all smiley faced and beam at my $20 dollar win. (It doesn't take much to make me happy). I have also played a few bucks while waiting to pick up a friend and lost it in a flash of whirling wheels and numbers.
If you have an inbox, and have ever done any research at all into Internet opportunities you know how it’s like that slot machine. Those email ads call out to you to put your money in and take a spin. In the end when the lights, spinning numbers, and sound stop you are left with nothing. Those emails you get for the next great thing to make money with are all bells and whistles and very few payouts.

There is a rule I hope you will all take to heart. If you can’t afford it, don’t buy it, if you don’t understand it, don’t try it. I also put forth, if you can’t afford it and want it, save up for it. If you don’t understand it but want to; learn it. Sound a bit like your mother, don’t I. Sorry about that!
Times are tough all over folks and I mean worldwide. No one can afford to throw his or her money away on the unknown. I am pretty sure you all already know that. So what am I trying to get at? I for one am trying to move the conversation toward what can be done about the cash crunch. You could start a blog and engage in a robust and thought provoking socio-economic discussion. Whoops, I’m already doing that, my bad. We could scream bloody murder about Oil Companies and Wall Street bankers making obscene profits – while so many are scraping by just for gas, food, and cloths. But since this is my blog I prefer to talk about solutions ... not problems. I have lived through a couple of these economic down turns and there are two things we can do to get relief.
#1 - MAKE more money
#2 - or SAVE more money
Now, neither solution is as difficult as they may seem. For the most part, all that is required is a program of targeted and sustained action. There is a school of thought that says, ‘you can have anything you want, just not everything you want. [This theme will show up in many later articles]

I hope you all took a first step and looked into Dan’s offer to build your downline while you earn money for surfing the net. (See first post).

So lets look at another way to make a little extra money on the side. I am sure if you have spent any amount of time on the web you have seen those ads for. “Make hundreds of dollars taking surveys” Warning! These ad are like paying to have someone read a book to you. Actually you would get a better value for the read. Never, never ever pay for a survey list. They are too easy to find on the web and at the end of this issue I will start you off with a number of them and tell you where to get more.
Getting paid for your opinions doesn't involve skill or hard work; it also won’t make you rich or replace a full time job. Those ads are lies. Depending on how much time you put into them has a lot to do with what you get out. One other thing plays a big part. Demographics, i.e. who you are, what race, education, age, tax bracket, your job, etc. None of those things can be changed so there is a bit of trail and error to find the best sites for you. These are the nuts and bolts generally speaking for all survey companies.
1. You need a valid email address you check oftenMost survey invitations are emailed to you, so when signing up for surveys be sure to use a valid email address that you check most everyday. Once you are a registered user many sites also let you log in to a homepage and check if any surveys are available you might have missed.
2. Provide current and accurate information. Most sites will ask you to provide information about yourself such as age, marital status, etc. The sites we will be recommending are not in the business of selling personal info so not to worry on that count.You don't have to provide this information, but doing so will give you a better chance at qualifying for surveys in the future. Some site requests you take quite a few surveys called screeners just about you personally. They are not paid but they do often put you in a sweepstake and increase your chances of having targeted surveys sent to you.
3. Register with multiple survey companiesSome surveys are targeted only to women, only to those who live in a certain area, etc., which means you, won't qualify for every survey. Therefore, to make the most money possible you should register with multiple survey sites in order to increase your opportunities.

I’m going to set you up with a few right here and now and will put more down with each issue. If you want a full list right away just email me with your name and email address and I will send you Over forty to choose from. Now remember, some sites pay in cash, by check or pay pal, some pay by points later turned into cash payment or gifts. Some pay in Amazon Gift Certificates. Some only put you in sweepstakes. You will find which companies you like quickly, and then out of no where you will get an invite to a survey that pays $135 for about 10 hours work over 3 weeks time. (I got that one last week) Yippee! So sign up for as many as you can.
Hint: Use the same password for all the sites, it makes it that much easier. Most usernames will be your email address but for those that request it I would say to also employ the same username.

Greenfield: http://www.greenfieldonline.com/ Greenfield puts out a lot of surveys and if you are in the desired demographic you will be happy with this one. They pay promptly $1 to $20 per survey. They have a great deal of IT surveys.

Survey Spot: offers range from and instant win game. They have a $25,000 Cash Sweepstake. Cash Awards are paid out. Details are included in the sign up page.

Survey Savvy: personal profiles are created for each Survey Savvy online community member. The creation starts with your registration information, but can be enriched by answering a series of additional questions that will help them build a more accurate representation, or portrait, of you. Updating your portrait will help you qualify for more research surveys.https://www.surveysavvy.com/?id=2784190&action=join
Test Spin: These folks pay out in what they call spin dollars. They add up and you can get the equivalent amount in Amazon Gift Certificates.

http://www.testspin.com/home/ a quirky little company, lots of surveys, but they don't pre-screen. It is better to just go to their site once in awhile to see what surveys they have open and pick the ones you like. They pay in spin dollars, which you exchange for Amazon gift certificates.


Synovate/Global Survey: https://www.globalopinionpanels.com/ Lots of opportunities here.

Start with this group, they are all quite different in style, they are all legit, and they all tend to send a good amount of surveys your way.

Hint #2 Some of these sites will send more surveys than you can handle. You will also be signing up for more sites as time goes by. I suggest you get yourself a new free email address to handle just surveys. This way when you want to work on them you just go to the one email account and have at it. Don’t feel you have to do this all at once. But try to get started. Send me your name and email address with Paid Surveys Wanted in the subject line and I will send you five more sites at a time so you don’t get overwhelmed.
That's all there is to it - have fun!

What it's all about.

Welcome, I hope you will find something of use on your visits and come back often.I’ve always worked hard for a living. Starting out as a youngster, I have always felt that if someone paid me I had better earn it. When I served in the Air Force I felt I owed my country my best effort, so I achieved the Rank of E5, (Staff Sergeant) in only 2 ½ years, way ahead of my piers. I have run my own company, DoorWay out of Houston, TX. My partners decided to find an easier way to make a living so they left even though we had a contract for a 3000door job. These were two strong strapping guys I am talking about and I am a 5’6 1/2” women. It took me three years and a whole lot of sweat to finish and I did finish. I came in on time, on budget, and with my company reputation in tact. I moved to Arizona for family obligations. I tried my hand at a number of jobs, from airline ramp operations supervisor, to car sales, and then back to construction. I was good at all of these endeavors, I just was not happy with them. I wanted to work for myself. I also wanted the freedom of working from home at something I believed in and would be able to work my own schedule. I started my research. Before I knew it I had information coming at me from every angle and form every conceivable source. Vending, selling, parties, rebate processing, stock speculation, health aids, potions, notions, you get the idea.There is this old movie where a guy yells, ‘I’m mad as hell and I’m not going to take it anymore.” Or something like that. I just became so ticked off by all those so-called ‘guru’s’ and web masters with their stories of how they started out dead broke yet become millionaires with houses on the beaches of Cancun. They were all so willing to share their secrets for only $29.00 a month, yeah right, that’s a cheap one. Most deals ran from $40 to $70 or a fantastic one-time price of $969.00 (seriously). There would be mentoring; tele-conferencing, telling of secrets, and wham; you’re the next Internet millionaire. Lets break this down another way; you pay them money, they send you e-books and build you a look alike webpage, then you get rich, right. Well if you believe that, I can sell you an acre of the ex planet Pluto at a discount. I really can. [It’s been done!] JI’ve been at zero along the way in life, less than zero after some hard knocks. I have even been misled (taken) by an unscrupulous businessman. If I can stop just one hard working person from getting scammed that way I can count myself one up on the bad guys. I’ve been disappointed in ventures that could have worked if I had had the capital at the time. I’ve been around. But don’t get me wrong; there are opportunities out there a plenty. As with my door business, I found out you just have to find ways to make things work. You’ve just got to be willing to put the time and effort in. You also need to get some good people around you. Those gurus’ are no smarter than any of us, believe me, I’ve met a few. As they say, if there’s a will, there’s a way. I would like to help others find a way.So here’s the focus of my little blog. Money is tight for most of us, as if it were ever lose, and as much as many of us would love to pay that internet genius to hold our hand to riches (as if they would) most of us just can’t afford it. I wanted to change all that. So I found some like-minded folks who felt the same way and were interested in creating a new type of program that really did let you start from zero. Look at it as a great experiment. Could the no money thing be conquered. At the same time could we bring a large group of hard working people along to the success we want for ourselves. Finally, how great could we really make this dream.Strength in Numbers is what we are calling our exciting experiment and we are looking for those who want in because they want more. I will journal our progress till we grow this concept out of this world. I hope dear reader that you might want to take this trip with us. We’ve been exploring ways of generating extra cash with no out lay. At first it will be like an interest, than a hobby, and if you stick with it, who knows. Can you imagine what you could do with an extra $100/month… or $300, or even $600, which is our goal for each member who joins our team! You could sure fill up your gas tank with that! What about putting money aside for your child’s college education? Going out for a night on the town would be fun once in awhile. Taking the family out for a day at the amusement park could be fun. On a serious note you could even fund startup costs for your own business and chance obtaining financial freedom! What you do with your earnings is entirely up to you. We just care that you take us up on the offer to MAKE them!”We found our starting point when my buddy Dan found this site called Homepages Friends. This gem of a site lets you make money just for searching the web. Now there are a couple sites a bit like this but this one is partnered with YAHOO, a name that has been around for quite some time. The site is FREE to join; there will never be any cost to you. There will however be money to be made, all for doing what you probably do anyways, surf the net.[By joining through Dan’s email address http://us.mg2.mail.yahoo.com/dc/tenorman8@ymail.com%20 you take the first step in becoming a part of a new kind of marketing community.]Go ahead and email him with “ I’m interested/blog” in the subject line. Dan will send you all you need to get started.Dan is a real guy; just like you and me, well not like me, I’m a lady. (Yes I Am.). I will give you all his contact information and web pages so that you can look for yourself. Now what he is going to do is: as more of you join via Dan’s email address: http://us.mg2.mail.yahoo.com/dc/tenorman8@ymail.com he will build down lines for everyone. Here’s how it works, you send Dan an email, tell him that I have filled you in on the homepages friend’s idea, and what he is going to do is send you a referral code, use that code and sign up, (FOR FREE). Now once you get that all set up send him your referral code. When we get more people interested in this idea, he will send them your link and that is how your down line is going to be built. The key to it all is doing your searches. Dan is going to do all the hard work for you, and it’s all free. If you were asking yourself why would he be doing this? It is simple; helping you helps him, and it helps me and it helps you and anyone else who wants to join up with our team. And if you choose to refer family and friends to this site, and tell them about this team effort he will help them too. (They may or may not be directly under you but as more join all the down lines grow) The ultimate goal is that our teams will grow to a size so that every month we all are bringing in an extra $600 or more just for doing searches. This is the first of many such ways to make extra money, part-time, with the aim of building on each step to increase the ease of building profitable ventures. Dan’s down lines will be the glue that holds it all together. If we all work this, we will all prosper.In case you would like to read a bit more about Dan and what he is all about, or send potential prospects with questions as to whose team they’d be joining, feel free to check out the following links:<http://www.myspace.com/dgill888> This is his personal account on myspace that he’s had up for over two years now.<http://www.myspace.com/southsideboys2001> This is a page he created for the a cappella group he sang with for three years while at SUNY Geneseo (the inspiration for his email address lol)<http://www.myspace.com/398438370>He hasn’t come up with a name for it yet, but this is his account for advertising this free money opportunityon myspace. Once this takes off we will be adding additional opportunities for our team to help each other make money, so you may want to keep this one handy and check back once a month or so!Bottom line, we are going to under promise and over deliver. That’s the goal.See you next issue,EileenFuture issues will touch on most things internet, business, whether offline or online, serious stuff or silly stuff this group will tackle it and I will keep a running view of all the goings on. Look forward to having an excellent adventure with you all.
