That one was dumb but quick. One of the $2.00 ones today was like 2-3 minutes.

 

After a while you can get really good at not reading the survey questions and checking off random boxes while being alert for the attention checks.

Are you masters?

 

I know I won't continue at this pace and don't want to. The next step would be 5k, and I do feel mental anguish, a bit, just getting up to 1k, in 2 1/2 weeks. People do 200 some in a day, which is nuts.

 

I really need to do more research on everything. I feel like I know a bit, but deep down I have a feeling I don't know jack, which is exciting!

Nope, not a Master. I'd sure like to be, some of those Masters surveys pay $25.00 and up.

 

Hoffa, do you use a script or just the filter on AT? Do you try to get ones you aren't qualified for?

 

I used to use the scripts and hit catchers but for some reason after my 6 month layoff they aren't working. When I get home from work I'm going to try your links and see if I can get them working again. The one I used to use allows you to block the stupid hits and specific requesters, also it emitted a chime sound to alert you to new hits that meet your specific criteria.

Aren't there better options out there for making money in your free time doing surveys?

 

I don't remember the ones I did, but I seemed to fair better than what you are all talking about in here.  Was bored out of my mind when I was on disability so did that shit in the background out of boredom.  Would watch commercials for different companies then take a survey to rate them.  Seemed like I'd get $10 here and $20 there after a racking up a few hours.

Yeah, that is the script I use. I read people were having issues, and from what you described, it would fit your issues, due to the layoff. The thing I posted above will get it going for you/working.

Probably a million better ways. I can only answer for me, but something has me hooked, and it isn't the money.

Good work JC.

 

I've been banging these all day at $0.84 cents each. There's over 600 of these hits still available.
