Do your friends and family know you make money online?
« on: June 07, 2010, 03:20:04 pm »
My family and friends have always been negative about online making money opportunities.  Until today, I was out of work for three months!  No income whatsoever.  While waiting for calls about a job I turned to online opportunities to try to make a little bit of money.  Yea, I'm not getting rich, but I see it this way, every little bit helps.   My family thought it was all a waste of time.  What else was I suppose to do?

How does your family and friends feel about making money online?

No they do not although I did invite them to do so, but from their reactions, they simply didn't have the time, also said they manted to make real money per day instead of  pennies per day.  I told them those pennies do add up eventually.

yes they all think its a waste of time  a few spend thier time on facebook doing close to nothing and getting nothing for it. Id much rather be here on FC or taking a survey and getting paid for it.  So i dont even mention it anymore  let them be negative and ill make a few extra bucks every month   :peace:

I have been out of work for a while now and my family is very supportive. As my husband says...$5 is $5 you didn't have before. I have talked my sister into signing up for a few sites, but she doesn't seem to be very excited about it.

When I first started making money online my bf thought I was scamming people.  I don't make a whole lot each month but it's something.  Some of my friends know that I do stuff online but not a lot.  I don't tell everyone.  One of my friends signed up for FC but I see she's not active, I don't push her.  I think a lot of them think it's just a novelty.

Some of my family members know I am making money online, and they think it is a waste of time. They have seen some of my checks.

I have to agree, most of my family is negative about it as well.  But, it really doesn't bother me because at least I have some extra cash coming in to help with the bills.  Now that they see I always have cash for my expenses they say, wow this online stuff is really working for you huh?  I simply say YUP, I tried to tell you about it but you weren't interested remember? lol ::)

I have sent them referral requests so you would think so, but no one has said anything.  :BangHead:

My friends think it's not worth it and rather have a part time job. Sometimes I'm inclined to agree with them but I spent a lot of time on the computer so might as well get a little extra bit of money for it. Even though if making money online takes too much of my time I would be willing to drop it. After all I would rather go out and spend a day with my friends than sitting around doing offers.

Family doesn't care they're all dead. friends think its a great idea to be making money instead of paying an ISP for DSL just to play endless games of Bejeweled 2. A nickel here a penny there and a dollar now and then. With surveys thrown in it almost pays for my internet habit.

Yeah they know. So far they're mostly shocked that there are legitimate websites.

   :)   Your life is your life and if making money online is part of your life...it is your business. Who cares...as long as you earned it legally.
