Do you think it's possible to get $30/day on nothing but surveys?

    I read your question, but I'm not the right person to answer.

    What do you mean by stats. I got like 15000 approved hits if that's what you mean. Thanks

    Yeah, I'm sure that's all she meant. With 15k approved and assuming over 90% approved it should definitely be possible to get at least $20 on surveys every day.

    Yes, that's what I meant. Because if you were under 5k approved, it would be more difficult to get 20/day. Once you hit the 5k a lot of stuff opens up. Running scraper and customizing it is the easiest way. Make sure to constantly edit your blocklist to include anything rated low that you shouldn't do. Scrape 1-3 pages at a time. Make sure you're either setting it to make noise for new hits (annoying) or split screening it to watch it for surveys to pop up. Those few seconds matter when everyone's doing it. Here's my scraper settings: [​IMG] I have a few batches on my TM that I watch for, but other than that, I do mostly surveys.

    Well...I'm taking the forum's advice and opening myself back to surveys. My issue with surveys is mostly that even when I do try them, I often don't qualify thereby obviating any higher pay rate that I would have made. Seemed like a waste of time.

    I really don't hate the surveys that have that completion percentage tracker thingie at bottom: I figure I can just return long ones without the tracker. Otherwise I just feel like I'm in limbo and have no clue when it's going to end. (I guess I'd been burned with surveys too often.)

    I'm doing the dating one now. https://www.mturk.com/mturk/preview...VV04G613N1IUGO5&isSelectedBySearchExperiment=

    I'm married to a Trump supporter. We literally cannot talk politics. We never fight about anything ever, really. But let us talk about politics and we're screaming and acting like idiots. We have a hard rule: no commenting on each other's facebook about anything political, or mutual friends. No talking about it with each other because we're both too stubborn to change our minds. I'm a liberal, left leaning, independent that goes dem most of the time. He's a conservative right leaning republican. We even agree on most social issues, he just sees social issues as less important than fiscal ones, and I'm the opposite. So yeah, no political talk in my house.

    *hugs Naisy* *cries for you* *prays for you*

    Wanna know a funny story?

    Honest to god this is true, I'm 40 and just this past summer met my three half siblings for the first time. I knew they existed yet we never made contact in any way our entire lives. Two of them turn out to be Trump supporters. I kid you not...what a difference growing up in NYC makes I guess....

    I'm a staunch green party liberal and this sickens me. :p

    I quit. I'm not even going to do z's today. Scraper doesn't want to work, the kids around being extra annoying this morning, the husband won't wake up to take them to the bus, I'm tired and grouchy and have a dr's apt today. I just quit. Make some money today, guys. Good luck!

    I agree. If you run TM and Scraper to boot you should easily be able to easily clear 20-30 consistently during the week.

    It usually take me a good 6-8 hours to get 20-30 tho. If I could make 40-50 a day, I could quit my "real" job. I only get 230 a week there, and I gotta worry about gas, lunch, and a 13 hour day per week.

    For me its all about the start of the day. I hope on around 5am and usually between 5-6 I make between $5-8. If I can do that I will be over $20 by about 10 but then my real jobs starts to get busy. Usually end up in the $30-40 range pretty easily. If get some batches then its easier but I don't do any hit for less than .15.
