    Agreed, there are many ways to earn online, there are also many ways to lose so please be careful and be sure to look very closely at anything that interests you.

    I've been working online for four years and I can tell you it's a jungle out there.

      By far, take an entrepreneurship class at a local business school. It'll be your best investment and you'll really come out of it with fresh ideas on how to make money. I also enjoy reading articles on entrepreneur.com as it has a variety of ideas on how to get started.

            There are so many ways out there to make money online so I have been rather cautious but there are a few places I have used:
            National Consumer Panel (very limited) - scan items that you buy and get money
            Swagbucks - save up points from searching for gift cards
            Viewpoints - often have gift card deals for writing product reviews
            So many survey places! Many of which are legitimate but always search for reviews before using. I use Epoll as it only sends surveys occasionally so I don't get overloaded.
            Many websites that have a point system often have ways to get points from shopping online so lookout for that.

                There are some really great suggestions here! To add another to the list, if you're not afraid of needles you could always donate your plasma! There are some rules and what not but once you get into the process it only takes around an hour and the money is pretty good! I know where I'm from if I go the full two times a week I earn $60! Plus it's a really good cause.

                  I'm not sure if this really works as I never try it before, but a friend I know mention to me. He would look on craigslist and look for free items. Anything good he would pick it up and hold a garage sales on the weekend.

                    Blogging, web-content, academic essays, surveys, online research etc... These are the most common ways on how you can get extra bucks legit. Be very careful though in finding online jobs. Make sure you as the jobseeker would not be scammed. Take time to look around and check. Good luck.

                      Aside from the ones online, there are also tons of other things that you can do to earn some extra cash. Setting up a small shop at home is one of the best ways that you can go along for this

                                There are so many ways to make money. Great ideas on here. I've done a few things but my most profitable one so far has been my blog as it lead to a publishing contract, the book coming out in June.

                                Besides my blog I have done online surveys, haircuts and beauty treatments (I am qualified), paper route, food co op, had a boarder, an investment property, shares and sold things online/at markets to name a few.

                                The best ones are ones you can do passively or that require the least amount of effort for maximum gain. For example a paper route is often not really worth it when you take into account the amount of time spent folding and delivering.
