Have you ever made any real money from the internet?

[old pig]

In college i used to flip my old textbooks and books that ppl left around the school on bigwords.com .. just type the isbn # and they give u a price comparison on what different sites will pay for the book. U print the label n ship n get a check. Good small hustle for college brehs

Also made $400 once flipping 2 bill burr tickets on stubhub. Tickets were first come first serve so i got em for $50 each. When i couldnt go i posted them on stubhub for $250 a piece n someone actually bought them

man we used to steal ppl's textbooks from the student library and blow the $$$ on weed...it was an absolutely shytty thing to do but your story brought back that memory lol

I made some bread being a expert for investors on LinkedIn. It was weird how it went down too. A company contacted me randomly and said investors were looking for experts in certain fields so they could be more informed before they invest. At first I thought it was a scam and looked into the company and they were legit. Since I didn’t care when they asked me what my rate was I was $250 an hour. They’re was like cool. I was like . Took a few calls and logged the time. When that first check came in I was like .

[fkthisgaysite]

Nah back in the late 00s they send me like 40 to 80 dollars for about 4 hours that i completed through the day. It would towards gamefly also.

Now the game as has changed, no point in doing any of them. They wanna send you free magazine subscriptions and shyt

Aw yea I was talkin about that Amazon Mechanical Turk shyt.

Actually I did. I was an independent contractor and got a 1099 at the end of the year. shyt was legit and it was nice piece of bread I made. Matter of fact I’m still linked with the company and can get a call anytime.

I got lucky when someone on another message board made a thread about ripple (XRP)...I liked the opportunity/investment but was skeptical so I invested a few months worth of “sneaker money” w/ the understanding that it could be a waste of time/money so $1500 was an amount I was “comfortable” losing

after that I made $$$ by following the crowd but I was also losing $$$ and missing out on opportunities bcuz when following the crowd you are more than likely getting information late...this was a learning period for me...I noticed there were some members in the same thread about ripple (it eventually evolved into a cryptocurrency thread) who had more “luck” than others...instead of focusing on what they invested in I focused on why they invested into certain projects

there’s no “rule” but 3 things I look for in a token project is purpose...partnerships and community...personally I like utility platform building tokens but that’s irrelevant...there are various types of projects that are successful...partnerships are key...it doesn’t matter how “great” the tech is purported to be if a project doesn’t have alliances w/ major companies which should be verified thru the companies twitter accounts and not random rumors from “experts” then it’s not going to make for a great long-term investment imo...partnerships are the number one thing to look for imo...community is also very important which I’ll use to include the project team as well as advisors...I have seen worthless projects (no unique purpose, average tech) succeed bcuz they had a strong community and alliances (a great example of this is DOGE coin and its affiliation w/ elon musk...that project is trading on places like robinhood)

long story short...you have to be a part of the culture somewhat...watch youtube vids...twitter feeds...reddit forums...telegram etc. granted I don’t put too much stock in these social media experts but when starting off you may pick up a thing or too until you get to a point where you’re comfortable w/ your own ability to research projects...not to sound cliche but experience is the best teacher...all of 2017 was a great learning experience...as well as 2018 even tho the bear market taught me a tough lesson I needed to learn...there was a time when “research” consisted of me looking @ websites and logos to see if they looked “professional” and browsing thru whitepapers looking for typos but now I can fully articulate using the appropriate lingo why I think a project can be successful using legitimate information that can be substantiated and not just running off rumors...I can interpret charts a little bit better etc.

in 2017 it was easier to “hit a lick” for lack of a better term bcuz everything was sort of “new” especially w/ ICOs pulling in major amounts of $$$ kind of similar to the dotcom bubble...w/ the bust in 2018 we are now @ a point where we’re gonna see the amazons, googles, netflixes etc. of crypto emerge so it’s going to require more effort/foresight to pick “winners”

Thanks for going in detail bro.

.

Yeah Nov-Feb from what i've been noticing from my sales reports seem to be my peak season for revenue...

i couldn't figure it out.....considering i didnt think people would have expendable cash to spend on my product during holiday time...

but now im realizing it's mostly the vendors/stores i provide whom are getting thier inventory together (re up) for the new year ................

i've just added two more product lines which should get me over the 1k per month mark .....that i have been seeking....im also gonna reopen my etsy shop to get bread over there too

 

[Jammer22]

Cryptos for me.

Turned about $200 into $7k

I could've put $500 but oh well. Just wanted to get my feet wet.
