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!

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.

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.

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.

Area With Mturk Hits

A few of my readers that are new to Amazon Mechanical Turk may simply wonder where do you find hits that you can do? Well if you are new and starting out, I would actually recommend reddit. They have a subforum that is called hitsworthturkingfor which can be found here. This is where I started in the beginning and from there I worked my way to forums. This subreddit has many hits that are mainly surveys, and they post the time. The great thing is that almost anyone that is new can do them and they are a way to get your feet off the ground without suffering and doing hits that seem like they will last forever. I myself have gotten away from surveys a bit because I find most to be underpaid, but this subreddit is wonderful for everyone starting out. You do not have to have an account to view the hits that are posted.

Have a great Wednesday everyone.
