Credit Sesame Is Giving $150 Amazon Gift card to users who get six referrals!

The website Credit Sesame is offering a $150 amazon gift card if you sign up and get six people to sign up under you. I imagine that many of you know six people that would be willing to do this. I know this seems like a scam, and I even thought that as well, but I went ahead and did it and should receive my gift card soon. Many people on reddit.com/r/beermoney have already discussed receiving their card very quickly after they got their six referrals. I really think this is something great and I thought that the least that I could do is share it with you.

The link to sign up to the site is here, the site is 100% free. The site did not ask me for anything other than my address and SSN for the matter of getting my credit report. No payment information was requested and there was not even a place that it had to be put in. The site looks to be well trusted. I believe that this is a good opportunity for us all prior to the Christmas season.

Like Football? Want to earn some quick cash? Check out Victiv!

Hey Guys,

Just stumbled on this new site called Victiv where you can enter a free (100%) football fantasy league for a chance to win up to $25 per week. You can of course win more if you would like to deposit some money but this was not the route that I was taking when I first signed up to the site today. It did not require me to put in any payment information in order to use the site and I had already picked my roster to prepare for tomorrow's matchups in a matter of minutes. I will keep you posted on the results of the first week I am doing this but I felt I would let anyone know that wants to try the site as well the chance to do so.

Good luck to all on Victiv that try it!

Smart Trick for Quick Swagbucks

For those of you that use Swagbucks and have been curious as to how to get swagbucks quickly, yet passively I wanted to share one of the things that I have started doing to get some swagbucks with minimal effort. Swagbucks offers 10 swagbucks per coupon that you clip and use, while some of these coupons may be useful and relevant to you, not all of them are, so what you can do is print them all off and put the coupon next to the item. You will not use it, but it may be of use to someone else. During your shopkicking or grocery shopping trips, simply drop the coupon off by the item and wait. If you have access to a free printer like I do at university then this makes this trick even sweeter. With the 438 coupons that are currently available this equates to 4,380 swagbucks just for putting coupons around in a store if they are all used. To me this is a significant amount of passive income for minimal effort. Hope this works for all of you as well.

Have a great week!

AltCoins Vs Bitcoins, Multipool, Graphics Cards

Many of you may know by now that unless you have a very powerful asic mining machine, bitcoin mining is not worth it anymore. These mining machines can be very expensive and many not even get their investment returned. I myself have not quite mining bitcoin but my totals are much less, because of this I have decided to start mining alternate currencies with my graphics cards. I currently have a 4890 and a 5770, while these cards are nothing spectacular they have been able to get me off to a decent start in the Alt currency world.

One in particular in Dogecoin. This coin has received much attention as of late and it is normally the number one most profitable coin on multipool.us. Over the past week I have gained around 2,600 dogecoin alone just from being on the most profitable port. I would have much more, but I am on the port to mine several different coins in hopes that one of them may get popular and valuable soon.

If you believe that you have a half decent graphics card then you can check out this chart to see what you are able to https://litecoin.info/Mining_hardware_comparison. Dogecoin also has their own dedicated wallet just like bitcoin and others that can be downloaded from http://dogecoin.com/
Set-up is very similar to that of bitcoin, but ASIC miners will not work to mine coins that are not SHA-256 algorithm.

Lastly, if you are interested in creating a coin of your own and you have .05 BTC to spare, then coingen.io may be of interest to you. They will create the coin for you and you are the one that is responsible of making it popular and setting it up with a pool. You never know, you could create the next big coin that gets popular.

I will be adding a dogecoin address to my blog if anyone is generous enough to donate to me. I will also be sending dogecoin out soon to those who subscribe here, promote my blog, and have a wallet. I am willing to send people who help me other currencies that I mine as well.

BTCJAM - Invest Your Bitcoins

If you are someone that is looking to grow your amount of bitcoins without actually buying more then the website btcjam.com may just be for you. On this site, you can request a loan in bitcoins and lenders will pay you that money and then you have to pay it back on a certain percent every so often. If you own a decent amount of bitcoins then this site would be great for you to invest in. I will probably be doing some myself even though the amount of bitcoins that I have is not that great. I have seen that they pay back 5% or more. This is a steady, good way, to increase your bitcoin total.

If you have experience with this site, good or bad, or just have any questions feel free to ask.

Writer's Domain & Updates

Good Evening,

Just wanted to update you on what's happening as of late. I haven't found too many new sites and that explains me not posting any new material. I will keep the look out for new apps and new sites that I try and if they are successful in making any money.

One new site I have found particularly would be useful to writers and it is called Writer's Domain. They pay you to write articles for them. I do not exactly know the pay yet but I have heard it is pretty good. I applied and my article was accepted but I was added to a waitlist. They require you to pass an English exam and to have your article graded by them before you will get added to the waitlist. I have heard that the list can be quite long and some still waiting to get on since the summer. How the select who they want off the list is unknown, some users have been reporting only being on the waitlist a couple days.

I will keep you posted if and when I get approved to actually write content for the site and if there's any new money making opportunities that I discover.

Bing Rewards!

Many of you may have heard of Bing Rewards, if not, now would be a great time to sign up and start earning credits towards some awards. You can make around 17 credits each day. This is not a lot but this will definitely add up quickly. If you achieve gold status which is 750 credits all time and completing the tasks that they list. I currently am on the way to silver status. You can get 200 credits, instant silver status basically, just from getting a friend of yours to sign up. The rewards on bing vary greatly gift card wise. They have gift cards from many different websites. Sign up today, and happy searching! I will be updating how quickly I get rewards and how much I get total from using bing rewards each day.

New Year, New Money Making Oppurtunities

Thank you to anyone that followed along or read along to this blog in the past year that I have started. Now in 2014 I am planning on continuing to post my money making sites and how I manage to make a reasonable income working completely online. Continue to have a look at my blog. I plan to update it even more than I had before. Happy New Year!

Slice The Pie. Make Money Listening to Music!

Today I decided to try out a new money making website just to make a little more extra per month as I always am and although I have heard about Slice the Pie I had never tried the site. The website, which is here allows you to listen to music, 90 second clips at a time and you must write a review of them. I write my reviews while the music is playing and I am always over the character limit before the song ends. I find this site very easy to make some money, and I am no audio expert. I tested the site for 11 minutes today and I managed to make $1.33. This isn't much, but you can do this site in your down time as much as you want and this definitely is much more of a money maker than other sites and apps I have talked about. I usually set goals for myself which each site/app I use to reach each day and I feel like $10 would be reachable on slicethepie in just over an hour. I made an average of 17 cents per song, and this took only 90 seconds. This is the start out pay for everyone I believe and it is already what is the minimum wage in most states, just to listen to music. If your reviews are good, you are able to move up in time and make even more. I plan to work on Slicethepie more to see my results and I will report them here. The minimum payout for Slicethepie is $10, paypable via paypal and I am hopeful to make this amount each day with a little work.

Good luck and happy listening everyone.

Jingit Update -- Debit Card Received!

Yesterday I received the debit card that you are able to order with the rewards app I wrote about earlier this month called Jingit. It came very quickly, and the card looks better than expected. It is a Visa with the Jingit logo on the top left. This is pretty handy for the rewards app since you can simply load the Jingit card as you make money on the site and then use the card as you please. The activation was quick and easy as it should be.

So far my experience with Jingit has been pretty mediocre. I have made around $5 on the site, and so far it has been difficult to make much more money using it. Still, I make a few cents here and there and it may not seem like much but this could add up to around $100 a year, which if spent wisely could turn into much more.

I found a new rewards app that deals with QR codes that I will be writing about soon after my initial tests of it.

Update on Mining -- New Pool / Hardware Updates

I have realized that Triplemining may not be the best site for me when it comes to long term mining simply because of the pay per 24 hour method that they use. They only pay you for the shares you solved in the last 24 hours, which is great, if the block ends in a decent amount of time. However, this current block is approaching 700 hours and at this point if you have a Jalapeno miner like myself all that run time is netting you close to nothing. I have decided the new pool I will be using is called Multipool. They also allow you to mine for other coins that use a similar algorithm as bitcoin and they pay based on how many shares you solved compared to the number of shares total, which is much better. I will update on the type of money that I am able with my miners using Multipool in the near future.

As far as my hardware, all is doing well since I got it. I have 6 ASIC erupters that are constantly going and I also have the BFL jalapeno which runs at a constant 50 Celsius  I have fans on all my equipment that is running to ensure that it stays cool. I am so far satisfied with how quickly it can produce, going over 11 GH/S almost all the time!

Bitcoin ASIC Miners!

About a week ago I decided to invest in a Butterfly Labs ASIC Miner as well as a group of six block eruptors that came as a set. I knew that there was a good chance that I would not gain back my investment but I figured it would still be a cool experience to see what this thing can do. I paid around $700.00 for everything that I got and it came in the mail today. I use Triplemining.com as mentioned in a previous post as my mining pool. Well, 3 hours into the mining I am throughly impressed. The machine has already made me $5.50 worth of bitcoins in just 3 hours. This is 1/2 of what a calculator said it would make in 24 hours so it is well above the pace. I read many articles saying a small miner like this, the Jalapeno, was not worth it anymore because of the investment not being able to be returned. Even with the difficulty going up I believe this mining setup will still be able to make back what I have in in less than a month. If you have been discouraged about investing in a small miner please do invest! Using triplemining seems to be good and is outdoing any calculations I had seen before. If you are wondering how to get started mining I have a previous post that briefly explains it and I am willing to answer questions too!

Happy Mining everyone!

I will keep up to date how this miner is doing as well as how much income bitcoin mining can really make with a small investment.

1/4 Million Hits Reached

Just wanted to share a milestone I reached today. 250,000 submitted since end of September 2012. Work has been a lot slower lately but starting to gain some steam again.

Jingit -- Similar to Shopkick

Two days ago I discovered a new app that allows you to gain money by watching videos, scanning barcodes and getting cash back by scanning a receipt. It is called Jingit. At first it appears that there is not much to be made on this site, but I felt like giving it a try anyway because any money is more than I had. At first you can watch videos, which they stopped me at four of them or $.75. This only took 3-5 minutes so I felt it was worth my time.

The next way that it allows you to earn money is by scanning barcodes, exactly like shopkick. Jingit, however, does not have nearly the amount as shopkick and they are not as available  I had four on Jingit yesterday that I scanned while I was doing shopkick. This netted me $2.00 which was great for the time but I am not for sure when they will be back.

You can also get money if you are interested in the items on the app and want cash back. Personally, the only one on there I would buy is the yogurt so I can tell this section is not as much for me, but it may be for some. They offer over $1 per most items cash back.

Jingit appears that it will only allow you to earn $10 a week without any referral  This is okay to me, since an extra $40 a month just for this would fill up my gas tank once, but it appears the more you refer the more potential you have as with most sites.

Lastly, Jingit offers a debit card that you may sign up for once you hit $3.00 earned. I am $.25 away from this, but I plan to order one once I am able so that I can use it for gas / groceries if this app does indeed allow me to make up to $40 a month.

I will keep up to date how this app goes, and of course post new sites I find. If you have any experience with Jingit feel free to comment below!

Microworkers - Work From Home

Microworkers.com is another site that is similar to mturk in a sense that you do small tasks for not a lot of money but this money can add up quickly. While I would definitely not suggest microworkers as a site that will get you a lot of money, it is always nice to get a few dollars extra. I have earned about $50 on the site since starting to use it in May 2013 and this is hardly working on it at all.
Microworkers will pay you via paypal and you must have at least $10 made in order to get this money. While this is not a lot, it still has been taking me several weeks to get this $10. I would recommend doing this site daily to earn an okay amount, but there is only about 200 tasks available for me at any given time.
The earnings that can be made on microworkers is similar to what I make on swagbucks.

Updated Mturk Earnings

For the longest time I thought about giving up on this blog because I did not think it was worth my while. As of late I have seen that there are a lot of people that are trying to make money online and they do not realize the true potential of Mechanical Turk. I have been on the site 13 months now and I have some astounding results. Any one can achieve this as well. Here is my updated report. Work has been very slow for me the last week, so that explains the low numbers.
