A computer can do many things such as provide you with knowledge, socialization and entertainment for some of us we actually have found part time jobs on the internet.

It can also make us money should we feel ambitious enough to do some research. There are places out here, which actually do pay you for work you do, which is cool. However, like the real world there are scammers out here on the internet who hide behind a computer monitor.

Scammers running amok

Trust me I have spent plenty of time working on the internet trying those sites, which say they will earn you money, and after countless hours of work, the pay is still just as far away. Who needs things like that, when you are putting forth an honest effort? Those sites that say you can make money by reading emails are a joke I fell for. The only ones that may make some money on those types of deals are the ringmasters who sucker others in.

Paid for completing offers, man oh man this is another classic one that gets several people believing they will make money. You have to complete the offer to get the money and usually the offer is buying something, sure, you need to spend money to make money but that is ridiculous. You get pennies for doing work and you need to reach some high amount before they will cut you a check.

Sites that do pay!

There are several sites, which do pay you for the work you do, which is great, and I found a few in the years.

Associated Content

The first is associated content, and you are paid for articles you write as well as page views those articles bring. I have been creating articles there for a few months and have realized the potential here. You are paid by deposits to your pay pal account a few times a week which is truly awesome in my eyes. This is my favorite because it allows me to write and writing is something I have enjoyed.

Guru.com

This is a freelance site that I used to find plenty of technical jobs on, and I made some decent money out there. I stopped using it when I went into college because I did not have the free time to devote to it.

Working from home

Telecommuting is a job that I have always wanted and now it is my sole income for right now. I can work in my pajamas, and do not have to drive anywhere. I can work anytime I want too, and smoke at my desk. I am my own boss, and this is doable for everyone if they have the self-control to sit and type a few hours a day.

You have to pay your own taxes though which can be a daunting task. You are most of the time an independent worker, not a part of the company per say. Just keep all your receipts for your taxes and pass them along to your accountant with the 1099 you will get from the company.

If you make any more the 600 dollars in a year from any one company, you must provide them with your social security number, or an employee ID number so they can report the wages to the IRS. They also send you a 1099, which looks similar to a w-4 most everyone else gets.

You get no benefits at all, except the benefit of less stress. Less stress is a great thing to me, my last job, which I held for almost 4 years, was very stressful, I very much hated to go in and do my twelve-hour shifts at the nursing home.

There are plenty of places out here on the internet where even the self-employed can find health insurance. A quick search for self-employed health insurance will give you some web sites and companies. Therefore, you can work from home and still get insurance if you make enough to cover it.
