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.

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!

Consistent $4-5 Daily Via Microworkers / Gomez Peer

As of late I have been checking up on the site microworkers.com a lot just to see if there's any steady work there and to my surprise there actually is. Each and every day about 10 AM CST there are search hits where you search three different keyboards, then paste the code into the box on microworkers for $.18 per hit. There are usually around 30 hits available of this format to do and this has been a great boost for me. Doing these hits along I will net around $150 a month just from microworkers and this is more than enough to pay my gas expenses that usually come from my eBay selling. 

As for my other sites and money making opportunities,  at the end of February I finally got accepted to Gomez Peer. I had been a member for awhile but not had my accounted activated until now. They pay you to just run your PC, which is something that I have going all of the time anyway so it does not matter to me that much. I have made $8 in a couple weeks on there and am pretty satisfied with that. They pay via paypal. 

Due to Midterms last week I had been quite busy keeping up to date with the blog here but I will be able to post a little more now that they're over. Hope everyone has been making some money!

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.

Artistic? Post your Photos to Deviantart & Make Passive Income

If you have any artistic talent you may have heard of Deviantart. This website brings together all things art and it also allows you to sell your art on the site. This could be a great way to get some passive income if you are passionate about drawing, photography, or anything of that nature as a hobby. I currently have a few of my own photos on that site and they are listed for sale as prints. There is no work involved for you, all you do is upload the image and then select print. Deviantart themselves will take care of all of the work and then they will give you commission being the owner of the piece of art. Hopefully some of you can sell some of your great art and make some passive income at home too. In the long run this could lead you to being a primary seller of art and being able to quit that 9-5 Job just from commissions!

My photos are not great, but here are some of the examples that I have listed on the site that can be bought as prints:

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.

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.

GUIMiner - Bitcoin - Triplemining

As many of you may know, Bitcoin a digital currency has lately increased in value by a ton. Being over $1,000 a coin it is well worth the time to start mining and this is very simple if you have a high powered GPU. Laptops are not recommended for this since they will not make much money. I currently mine with a 5770, and plan to mine with a few other machines once I get the funds to order them.

Digital Wallet:

First, you need a bitcoin wallet to maintain your currency.
There is a few to choose from on this website

Pool / Mining Community:

Next, you will want to join a pool of miners. This in my opinion is the easiest way to get into mining and it is straightforward. I currently use Triplemining. Using that link will allow you to sign up, if interested and then you will be set up with a pool. There are also many other mining pools, none of which I have had experience with, but you can find some more here Others

Software:

Lastly, you will want to set up the miner itself. I recommend GUIMiner, this is the most advanced graphics wise, but is not always the most efficient. I have been making around 170 mhash /s using the 5770 with GUIMiner. GUIMiner can be found using this link 

Set up is very simple. On triplemining.com once you have an account, go to the workers tab and create a worker on the top right. Just put a computer name in, or something, and a simple password that is NOT the same as your profile information. Once you have done this, open GUIMiner, select triplemining under the server and then put in this worker information you just created under username and password. Select your graphics card you're using, then press start mining. From this point you can see your progress on triplemining and it will tell you how you are doing.

If there are any questions on this, feel free to comment and I will try to help. With bitcoin being as much as it is now, getting into this while you can still can may be a great idea.

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.
