I hope you see this. Our reply to comments are getting too long.  I have looked at the two things you mentioned. The one I couldn't make a lot out of and the other I am going to try to check some things out on it this weekend if I can get time. The job I have now I do not have a lot of time because of the way the hours are set up.  The best thing about my current job is I will get laid off toward the end of November.  I hate it SO bad. But I can't quit.  I am leery about stuff I find online and them wanting my SS number.  One I found which very well may be legit is based out of the UK. I am really afraid of that.

I have also noticed a lot of the work from home stuff wants to track what I do on my laptop and I will not agree to that.  I had a job evaluating websites and I was down to the final accepting their terms.  It is a legit company and I know a woman who has worked there for 8 years.  It is 20 hours a week and pays $14 an hour.  BUT they wanted access to everything on my laptop, the contents of my emails, wanted to track what I do online, wanted access to my text messages (the contents) and to the apps on my phone and what I done with them.  UHHH you gonna have to pay me a lot more than $14 an hour to get that kind of info about me. 

When I get laid off I am going to look harder trying to get something going where I can work from home.  And have that set up by the time my unemployment runs out.

Hello! :D :)

I really hope by the time you get laid off in November you have your work at home job all set up. We all deserve to be in a job we enjoy since most of our life we are working. I understand the need for social security number both online and offline require that for they can send your tax papers to you. However, the other private information they need I don't understand and would ask why they need that information for? Nonetheless, if you don't want to give the information away someone else will do it. With that said most online jobs are like having a business because you are an independent contractor. You are the one who has to figure out if getting that job is in your best intrest. Best of luck in your job hunting! :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose: :heart: :rose:

I am looking at the one site you told me about.  And I have a list of stuff and I have looked at several items. So far nothing is looking promising for me. Could be I don't understand exactly what I am looking at.  Again, I wish FC would allow us to contact other members person to person. 

I totally understand the SS number but am not comfortable giving it when I do not know for sure who I am giving it to.  The one I am interested in but the only contact number is a physical address. They do not even have an email address.  I wanted to email and get some more info because their site is pretty vague. But doing a search the site has good ratings.

It is like this site we do not have to give a SS# unless we go over the $600 mark.  I would not have joined this site if I had to provide my SS$ to begin with.  I do have a site I done surveys with and they have a sweepstakes drawing and I won that this year and they asked for SS# and I provided all the needed.    If it is legit and I can actually make money I do not have as much of an issue with giving my info.  But I also want to make sure it is reputable.  Once your identity is stolen you can't do a lot to recover from it.  I am very unhappy in my current situation and if I could find something else I would quit before I got laid off. lol.

If I could find something online that paid a regular salary I would do it.  But it has to give me enough to pay the bills.  I could not depend on FC to pay my bills.  I probably won't make cash out this month because by the time I get off I do not feel like fooling with it too much and have so much other stuff I am trying to catch up on.

I have designed a couple websites and done an awesome job.  I maintain our church website and everybody has bragged on how great it looks.  I built it from one blank page.  I would love to make money doing something like that and I could work my own schedule. But no company will hire me because I do not have a degree or "experience" working at a company doing this.  And no the church does not pay me but I can show it as something I have done.

I use to think like that and just gave up doing a lot of stuff online. I only do things like this on two other websites and only make about 200$+ around there from time to time so I consider it pocket money to be honest.

I looked at one the other day and caught it says they pay to PayPal and they charge the PP fees to you. It comes out of your pay.  I said NO and moved on.  I am still kind of looking and have a list that is slowly dwindling down to be none of them are going to pan out.  There are a couple of apps I may try on my phone but it is like this it will offer basically pocket change.

Well lots of times we do surveys on this site and then don't get paid.

I saw a job the other day and they wanted me to pay $50 a month to be listed on their site as a free lance worker.  smh
