June moneymaking challenge!

[katykicker]

As [member=258]alditoharrods[/member] is away I am going to be running the thread for June.

Please let me know what you are aiming for and I will add to the list!

I've got an operation Friday ( ) so will not be around quite as much as normal. For that reason I am going to stick to the £1500 I originally aimed for during the 6 week challenge. I ended at well over £2,500 but I won't have as much time to push it this month!

Feel free to share how you make the money & if you want it for something specific. You can update as little or as much as you want & you can choose what you count - you make the rules just push yourself! Remember that everyone earns in different ways & has different commitments. This is a motivational thread but feel free to brag if you smash your target - no matter how small!

June moneymaking:
Katykicker - £1723.85/£1500
Serenlas - £51.42/as much as possible!
Sarebear78 - £156.47/£200

Yup do brag if you are having a great session of earning money! - Nothing motivates people more on here than seeing others do well!

 

[katykicker]

Shall I put you down for £1,000 [member=1]Jon@TheMoneyShed[/member] ? You could do that easily I reckon & if you are short on time / cba you can just post here at end of month when you update your diary?



Also I really agree - I'm motivated by others here (which is mostly why I have stayed so long!! - oh and the nice regulars) what I love about TMS is no-one says you are full of shit, mostly because they're earning similar amounts from the same sort of sites!

 

[Jon]

I can't think why people would call you out for saying you are talking shit in regards to you earnings. I can only assume the people saying it maybe have a lack of exposure to all the opportunities out there.

 

[katykicker]

It was mostly my first year - when I earned maybe 5k? Which is quite laughable as even though who do this significantly less than us earn that! Had my fair share of rude people on the green site! You didn't say if you wanted a target or not? Join us?!

 

[serenlas]

Can you put me down for as much as possible, please? I don't want to set myself an unrealistic target but I'd love to see how much I can earn in a month. I think I'll count the amount cashed out on points based sites like Global Test Market, and count as I earn on cash based sites like Prolific Academic, even if I'm not cashing out just yet! I hope that's not cheating

 

[sarebear78]

I am still learning lots of opportunities so I will have to go for a small total (compared to all you seasoned earners!). Can you put me down for £200? It is a bit more than I think I'll get but it should be or it is not a challenge, right? Thank everyone for all the useful posts

 

[katykicker]

Thanks for joining.

Personally I say you count what works best for you x

 

[queen81]

Morning - stick me down for at least a grand. Think I will be pushing it but sod it

 

[aless02]

I would love to join! I'm replacing a "normal" part time job that I left last month with online-only income, so hitting goals is kinda important for paying rent! I'm going to set mine at slightly more than I need just to be aspirational .

£800 for me.

Katykicker, can I ask an honest question? I've read your website and know you maximise lots of opportunities, but do you not just find yourself online all day every day just to hit those numbers? I don't mind some survey and "click" sites but they can take up so much time to me!

 

[spike241]

I'll go with £500.

I won't include the uTest payment I should be getting today though.

 

[Twiggy]

Put me down for £1000 goal, please.

I am only counting taxable work stuff this time, (so NO cashback or ebay/carboot sales.)

 

[Jon]

I am loving the number of people going for high totals here

 

[eros]

Count me in for June. I shall aim for £600

I'm online about 50 hours a week total. Sometimes less. I do 25-30 hours in an online job that gets me £25k PA, well a fraction more now my hours have changed. I do the majority of my online surveys alongside that, because of how my job works.

I then spend the other 20 or so hours on forums, social media, Skype (with relatives), updating my website (this is maybe 1 hour a week at the minute), and doing other bits and bobs. I also have a friend I chat to on gmail quite a few hours a day alongside all my work.

Based on my earnings for 2014/2015 tax year if I spend 50 hours a week on work I still make £16+ per hour, even on the hours when I'm dossing online not doing much. If I was online 70 hours a week I would still be making around £12+ an hour. I expect this to rise this year.

I don't do any work on the weekends unless IT is great paying. For example I did a £10 survey and a £30 webcam focus group on Saturday, but those took 1 hour 15 total so it was well worth it.

My husband works shifts of 36-48 hours a week, over 3-4 days, so I've condensed most of my work now into those days, depending on what days of the week they are. This means we have entire days off together usually 2-3 times a week where we visit family, go out for days out, or as has been the case lately go to the hospital a lot!

I don't do click sites really, like Neobux etc, and Clixsense I use solely for my referral earnings now really.

So yes, to sum up for those who don't like my big post, I am online a lot - but I earn a lovely amount of money for it by combining a ton of opportunities. At the moment the extra money is going on a mixture of private medical treatment (to avoid being on a waiting list for something) and saving for a house. I want to be mortgage free by 40 so I'm prepared to work for that. I'm also workin on a 5 figure buffer for when/if we get pregnant soon and I am not able to work as much going forward.

Hi, Katykicker...

All the best with your operation this Friday.

I'm thinking of joining the challenge this month. Will think of a target and get back to you.

 

[MrsWebster147]

I'm going to be optimistic and join in, I'm going to start off small as I have two little ones so the chance to earn can be a little unpredictable for me, please put me down for £150.

 

[Blackpepper1]

Going to be away last week in June so won't be doing as much.
Aiming on reaching £100 by then.

 

[Chammy]

I'll join in, pop me down for £100 please. I won't be using AQA for it so this will be £100 on top of my usual online earnings

 

[rebeccajlsk]

Count me in for £350. Despite doing well in the previous challenge, I'm away for a week this month so aiming low.
