    I think someone had mentioned these before but being the airhead that I am I dont remember. Someone had said you can make a little bit of money from the legit ones. I was thinking of siging up for a few and having my wife sign up for a few as we have the regular cpu and the laptop. Any help would be appreicated.

    I don't know of any paid survey sites on line....it may have been something you read that was a spammer....but if you do a phone book search or google search you may be able to find locally based market research companies that you two can sign up for. They call my husband and daughter quite frequently and if they qualify the compensation is usually between $50 and $200 for an hour or two of question answering or survey question answering.

    Yes I continue with caution as well Pete, most of these 'make money quickly' sites are usually a scam or not worth the time and effort. Having said that do a little research online about the site beforehand as there most be a few legit/decent ones out there.

    Be also careful of sites that get you to promote a product on other forums. As the moderators here will surely agree, WE HATE THEM :-x

    I wouldn't even think about it Pete as you'll never make any money from them. :( Frank is right we moderators HATE them with a vengeance.

    I have tried it and it is a waste of time. If you want you can PM me if you blog I have a few companies that I have already made money from and they pay well.
