I have been working from home or while traveling full-time since around 2013, and since then I have heard so many myths about work from home jobs.

Some of the things that I’ve heard over the years include:

“Working from home must be boring.”

“You must have so much free time to get chores done!”

“Aren’t all work from home jobs scams?”

“Working from home isn’t a real job”

Whether you work for yourself and your office is in your home, or if you telecommute and work for someone else, I’m sure you’ve heard some of these myths about work from home jobs as well.

Truth is, so many people think that working from home is something different, until they get to experience it. [Read more…]

Looking for entry level work from home jobs?

Everyone has to start somewhere, and if you want to start working from home, then I have a great list of no experience work from home jobs for you to look into.

What is a blog and how does it work? Can you really make money blogging? How much do bloggers make?

Over the years, I have received many questions about blogging. People want to know what is a blog, how they work, is it really a way for people to make money, and so on.

I completely understand all of the questions. While blogging has now been around for more than a decade, it’s still a fairly new way to earn money. I still have people give me funny looks when I tell them what I do for a living.

But, I didn’t really know what a blog was when I first started mine. I had absolutely no idea what I was doing.

I didn’t know how people made money from blogs or anything else like that.

Pretty much everything I learned about blogging was through trial and error, and I made a lot of mistakes over the years, haha! Honestly, it’s because of those mistakes that I’m where I am right now.

My life has completely changed because of blogging. I was able to quit a job I didn’t love, I travel full-time, and I can retire pretty much whenever I want.

It’s funny to think about how far I’ve come, especially since I had no idea what blogs even were. [Read more…]

Welcome to my User Interviews review!

If you are searching for paid online studies, then I have a great website for you to learn more about today – User Interviews.

There are many consumer research companies that pay people like you and me to share their opinions. Companies then use these opinions and feedback to improve their products and services.

Pinterest, Spotify, Macy’s, Home Depot, Trip Advisor, and more use User Interviews to gather feedback from users about their latest products, apps, and websites. In exchange, participants make $50 to $100 per hour or more for sharing their opinions and feedback.

This User Interviews review is going to explain what this site is, how it works, and how you can earn extra money by sharing your opinions – which is one of the things I did in order to make extra money to quickly pay off my student loan debt.

Back when I was paying off my student loans, I did a lot of things to make extra money – I sold items on eBay, managed social media for companies, mystery shopped, and took paid online studies. [Read more…]

How can college students make money online? This list of the best online jobs for college students will show you how.

More and more people are attending college and working at the same time. This may be those who are going straight from high school to college, adults going back to college, those working towards more degrees, and so on.

I had to work throughout high school and throughout college, and I will admit that it was tough at times.

While almost all of it was in-person, hourly jobs, I would have loved to find something online instead! It would have made it much easier to balance work and school if I had a flexible, online job like I do now.

I didn’t find out about blogging until towards the end of my time at college, and I wish I would have learned about working online sooner as it would have helped me greatly. [Read more…]
