Means To Earn Sometimes Proves Negative.

There are so many people online searching for means to earn something for themselves. I was one of those. I really love to search for things; surfing the internet. I have join some many survey sites. Some of it promises heaven and earth.

I am always thinking that I have nothing to loose since these sites are for free, but I had forgotten that I was actually buying data which is costly to go online to attend to these surveys.

Although, some of these sites pays as they have promised but it just not worth the trouble of answering the surveys (sitting in one place, staring on your screen and cracking your head to get it right).

I even create a blog of my own to try and get referrals so that I can earn more but I can assure you that for those different sites, I cannot boast of 10 personal referrals.
I have one policy and which is that

I will never use my money to buy anything from these sites no matter what the reward may be.

And I stick to it up till now. I have never use my money to buy referrals ever before and I am not going to.
I can use what I get from the site for what to do on the site but I have not tried it before.

In some of these sites, you will see attractive achievements of people who have earn from answering surveys which might be truth but before you can get one survey to answer, you will have to wait for months.
Some of it will give you more surveys, but you will find out that you are not qualified to answer it.

Let's leave that of survey out. What of Ponzi schemes

A Ponzi scheme is a fraudulent investment operation where the operator generates returns for older investors through revenue paid by new investors, rather than from legitimate business activities or profit of financial trading. Operators of Ponzi schemes can be either individuals or corporations, and grab the attention of new investors by offering short-term returns that are either abnormally high or unusually consistent. info

So many people fell and are still falling into the hands of these deceivers. They are very good at what they do.
Haha, I remember MMM. It was operating in most part of the world. People were rushing into it. Some people earn from it while so many regretted ever doing it.

Some people have lost their lives because of this and some where still left with the scar.

I wish there is a way to know what will be the end of some investment before going into it.

There are so many ways to earn outside there based on investment but it's all a risk.

If you are the type that like to go for surveys, go for it. There are still some that pays but do it not expecting much from it. I still do surveys.
If you are going to invest, watch out well on what you are going to invest on so not to fall prey to the predators.
