The internet nowadays offers a bunch of possibilities that we can use to earn money: from selling our bike to creating a multinational company with much less problems. Another way is to earn money answering surveys. Many people find out that this can be a profitable work at home activity, and requires little time. People just like me and you can make up to a couple thousand dollars a month if they fill out simple online surveys.
Big companies from the entire world offer from 5$ to 120$ just to fill out simple online surveys, depending on the importance of the survey for the company.
The survey contain simple questions about specific products, advertisements, slogans and logos. The most important thing when signing up for a program that makes surveys is to make up the right basic profile. Every person which wants to earn money answering surveys must fill a profile for himself. Many people make a mistake when they create their profile because they create a false profile because they think that this way they will make more money and fill out more surveys. Don’t do that mistake, because the company will first make a pre-survey, with some key questions and with your answers they will find out if your profile is real or false. Let’s take an example: I say in my profile that I am a IT expert, just because the IT surveys are paid better.
When the company will make the pre-survey my answers will reveal that I am no IT expert and the company will not give me the survey and as a consequence I will not earn money filling the survey. Try to create a true profile with true information about you. I guarantee you that this is the way to earn money answering survey online.

February 3rd, 2010Ways to Make Money While in College
January 30th, 2010
Two things go hand in hand, college students and empty wallets. A full load of courses leave little time for full time employment, which is why most college students are broke. Some students donate blood; some deliver pizzas, some sell burgers, but jobs such as those don’t offer much in the way of pay. There are ways to make money in college, much more than you would make at your average part time job, and you could still have time for your education. What is this amazing solution? It is quite easy, work online.
I know what you’re thinking; I am not falling for that again. It is true that there are thousands of schemes out there just waiting for people who are willing to pay to make a profit. Usually these scams don’t require a large amount of money. They don’t need to. They can easily get 5,000 people to pay one hundred dollars, for their “top secret money making tips,” than they have just earned $500,000.00. But don’t get discouraged there are real ways to make money in college using your computer, and they don’t have to cost you one pretty penny.
There is a company called ClickBank that offers individuals the chance to work for them marketing eBooks. These affiliates earn a commission for every book or subscription they sell. These commissions can range from 1% to 75% of the sale price. If you can figure out how to start a website, trust me anyone can do it, then you have a way to make money in college.
Becoming a ClickBank affiliate is really very simple. The entire process takes less than five minutes and yes, it is true it is absolutely free. When I first heard about this, I figured it was like most of the other “easy” ways to make money online. My curiosity was peaked when I realized that I wouldn’t have to spend anything to become an affiliate.
I began to wonder how ClickBank could offer such a good deal, but then I did a little research. Publishers pay ClickBank to list their publications, and it’s the publishers who pay the affiliates, ClickBank merely puts the product in the marketer (affiliates) hand. Actually, that’s not true; you don’t even have to get the product the consumer, Clickbank takes care of that too.
As an affiliate, all you really have to do is sign up with ClickBank Set up a site to do your marketing. Create a hoplink between your sites product display and the ClickBank site. Then spend your commission. Being an affiliate is one of the simple ways to make money in college. Stop eating Ramen!

Stock Market Money Management Skills
October 25th, 2009
Let’s start by saying: You can’t be afraid to take a loss. The investors that are the most successful in the stock market are the people who are willing to lose money.
Having a strategy and/or a specific philosophy is an excellent starting point to investing but it won’t mean a thing if you can’t manage your money. As I have said a million times: without cash, you can’t invest.
Most investors spend far too much time trying to figure out the exact pivot point or perfect entry strategy and too little time on money management. The most important aspect to investing is cutting your losses, 90% of the battle is won by protecting your capital, regardless of the strategy.
Most successful money managers only make money 50-55% of time. This means that successful individual investors are going to be wrong about half the time. Since this is the case, you better be ready to accept your losses and cut them while they are small. By cutting losses quickly and allowing your winners to ride the up-trend, you will consistently finish the year with black ink.
Here are some methods that can help you with money management:
Set a predetermined stop loss (you must know where to cut the loss before it happens “this will help control emotions when the time comes).” A 7-10% stop loss insurance policy is best. Tighten the stop loss range in down markets and loosen the range in strong bull markets.
Establish smaller positions if your account has had a recent losing streak (the losses may be telling you important information such as a critical turning point, it may be time to sell and get out).
If you think you are wrong or if the market is moving against you, cut your position in half “this is the best insurance policy on Wall Street.”
If you cut your position in half two times, you will be left with only 25% of the original position “the remaining stock is no longer a big deal as your risk is very low.”
If you sell out of a trade prematurely based on a minor correction, you can always reestablish the position again.
Initial position sizing plays a big part in money management “don’t take on too big of a position relative to your portfolio size. Novice investors should never use their entire account on one trade no matter how small the account
Know when you would like to get out of a position after a considerable profit has been made. Signs of topping could be a climax run, a spinning top or higher highs on lower volume.
Finally, cut any trade that doesn’t act the way you originally analyzed it to act.
With these guidelines, you will be well on your way to solid money management skills that will help you profit in Wall Street year in and year out. Always remember, you are going to take-on losing trades at least half of the time. This is a tough concept to accept for most novice investors but it a fact. If you don’t cut losses, you won’t be investing for very long as you will run out of cash and the desire to continue to invest.
