Ok this is a blog off of a site that sends me weekly emails. I have to copy/paste it beacuse another gpt site is involved, but dont worry, I'll only post the realivent stuff.
Once upon a time, when you took a picture, you have to wait an entire week for the developed film to return from being processed. With digital cameras, you can instantly see if the picture came out all right or if you need a retake. Baked potatoes required one hour in an oven in order to be cooked. With microwaves, you can have potato in five or six minutes. Coffee once had to be placed in a percolator on top of the stove. Now with single cup brewer’s like Keurig, you are 60 seconds away from a hot cup of coffee. This “ instant mentality” is why many people fail in their attempt to earn free money online There is a lack of patience and the need for instant results that sets new writers up for failure. http://www.youtube.com/v/Wzr12gBrXA8?fs=1&hl;=en_US - Stone Soup Are you familiar with the folk tale Stone Soup? There are many versions of the story, but the basic outline is this: A poor man comes to a village and is hungry. But no one wants to feed him. So in the middle of the town, he starts a fire, puts a large pot over it, and fills the pot with stones and water. The curious people gather around to see what the man is doing. ![]() He says out loud, “This will be the best stone soup, if I only had a few carrots.” A villager says that she has a few and gives them to the man to put in the pot. The man then says, “ Oh this soup is looking delicious. If only I had some celery, it would be perfect.” Another villager runs into his house to grab celery and put it in the pot. The story continues on for many pages, as each villager begins to share what they have. In the end, there is a big pot of stone soup. - How does this story relate to earning passive income online? You need to start somewhere. Whether you decide to sign up with Info Barrel and write articles, or another site where you can write and earn, you need to begin. Once you have mastered a site, you can then move on to another one and another one until you have built your own online stream of income. Here is the timeline of my journey for earning passive income. It highlights the most important things I have done to earn money online. And thats where I'll end. |

That's very true, people aren't willing to work for what they want, they probably want an easy way out and end up getting scammed or downloading a program to generate codes and get a virus. This is also why many of our refs are inactive; its simply too much work for some. Just thought of this, but wouldn't saying that it'll take some work on your ref site cut down on how many inactive ones you have? |

Well written. Too many people want the money simply handed to them and don't want to work for it. |

I have one good one, that's easy, but it takes a lot of work for a little profit; 2 or 3 cents per completion, and you have to get to 15 cents to earn it (15 cents at a time is minimum). This can easily take an hour or more per 15 cents, and thats only if your fast. I don't mind the work but I don't always have that much time. ...so do you have any suggestions on cash drops?
