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!
