Paid survey is real. I and many others here can vouch that Pinecone is good.

However, I can not vouch for anywhere else.

I've seen a lot fo "pay for survey sites." I am signed up with one called NYPDOR or something like that. They don't pay on all surveys but you are entered to win monthly drawings. I've won a $50 or $100 drawing once. Sometimes they do pay - I've made amounts from $2 to $8.

Before signing up for one, research it and research it some more.

What I believe this site does is list all the paid survey type sites that pay them if you click on the link and become a member of the survey site. This is a referral or affiliate payment for advertising for them. Doesn't cost you a dime to click on the link. Some of the sites listed may ask for money up front when you join...alarm bells sounding...never pay to join a survey site!!!!

There are legit sites out there, but don't expect to make alot of money unless you join them all and turn it into a decent part time job. Pinecone seems to be one of the best I have heard about. You need to find an active link to get you to Pinecone to be able to join. Search this forum and try the link posted in one of the threads to see if it is still active.

Good luck

Hope that helps!

In my early college days ( 4 years ago), I was naive and paid $30 to join a survey sight. I filled out a bunch of surveys, got a couple checks for around $4 each. I may have broken even on that. I eventually lost interest after about a month.

if it sounds too good to be true, it usually is. Many of those survey sites are scams
