Welcome Sara. Although I’ve got a feeling you may be rivalling me for central London tasks soon! Haha. All the best :)

Hi all. I have made a couple of posts but suppose I should have done this first.
Im Paul, 41 and skint. I live with my fiancee who has just been through a spell in hospital with ovarian cancer. Things have been hard but need to pick ourselves up and get on with it. Trying to make some cash for a car and hopefully make life a little more comfortable.
Any tips would be well appreciated.
Thank you

Hi, I’m new posting to the site but have been a reader for a little while.

I’ve been making a little bit of extra cash from some apps for a while whilst on maternity leave but now want to ramp it up a bit and make a target of £50 a week extra instead of £5 every 3 weeks for an app.

Any advice would be welcomed

Hey @mompops

Fantastic to have you here.

£50 a week, EASILY DO ABLE!

start off by using the beginners guide toolkit which should bring you in around £1000 a month

Hey

I’m Lynsay and new here. On top of the daily grind I blog here and there and love earning a bit extra. Have just got into a ‘debate’ and someone bet me I couldn’t clear off credit card debts using what I make online. Well.. challenge accepted!? Though to be honest I don’t have a large cc debt but it’d still be nice to clear it off.

I have 6 months to win (£1500 debt). I’m willing to do anything (within reason!) and while scouring the net came across this site. Suggestions welcome :)

Im on a mission to clear my debt too. However im giving myself 12 months (Jan-Dec) to clear $4000.00

Matched Betting looks quite longwinded and not sure I full understand it so I think I will be sticking to surveys, apps and any other ways I come across.

It’s really not

It can seem that if you read too much about it though lol

I would give the banner above a click and do the free trial. You’ll make around £45 risk free and see just how easy it is as you have your hand held the entire time :)

I started with £50 and have made over £25,000 (over £30,000 now actually!)
https://blog.themoneyshed.co.uk/risk-free-matched-betting-make-25000/

Once you cash out from a bookie you would typically have the money back in your bank account I would say 2-3 days later, sometimes less


WOW!!!
How long have you been doing it? that is an incredible amount of money? is it really risk free? I just don't understand how its risk free? im concerned I would do something wrong!

how that would really help me get to my saving goal.

Hi, I'm Macca,
I'm fairly new to all this but am facing redundancy due to company relocation, so keen to earn and save where I can.
I've been doing surveys for quite a while but these only add up to around £50 per year and am amazed that people are earning that in a week!
Any hints/ tips/ recommendation greatly appreciated .

Hiya!

Fantastic to have you on here and posting

Great to hear you are already off to the races with surveys

I would suggest you read our beginners guide to earning online toolkit as you can make easy £1000 a month from it alone which should help cover the redundancy shortfall
https://blog.themoneyshed.co.uk/working-from-home-toolkit/

Redundancy honestly sucks so I’m really sorry to hear you are facing it at this time of year!

Hi everyone

Another Macca here

Pleasure to be onboard

I'm also new to all of this, I've been fascinated by the idea of making money from home online for years now and looked at many things, well, skimmed over many things, so to stumble across this site is just fantastic and great to see that there are legit options out there and plenty of them too!

The only online venture I've had is an eBay account which I started 5 years ago (I've stopped now though), product wise I stumbled onto a winner straight away, it was niche and only sold during winter, I sold iGloves, easy to pack, easy post, this particular brand were new at the time too came with a gift box etc so perfect for selling during the running upto xmas. I sourced cheap suppliers in china via Alibaba and fortunately they were of great quality and during the xmas build up from around late October right up to normally around the 20th December I'd sell loads!! making a good £5k profit after all costs taken out, in literally around 8 weeks it was crazy! I got 3 good Christmas's out of doing that ontop of working a normal job too throughout the rest of the year. But eventually the Brand owner band me from Selling as I wasn't soucing the products from him, so that was the end of that, fair enough.

Since then I got a job working away paying good money which allowed me to buy a house and get married all in a 2 year period, eventually I decided I wanted to be home with the wife and see family and friends more often so I got a job closer to home but 4 months on it hasn't worked out and now i'm currently not working and deciding what to do next.

Now I'm here :D

I've got a little of £20k in savings and the wife works so morgage and bills are covered for a good while yet so no panic stations as such but I need to start earning very soon.

My main aim is to throw myself into MB. Oh how I am so annoyed I never looked into this seriously many years ago!

I signed up to Oddsmonkey a few weeks back and did the 2 sign up offers and made over £40 profit which was great, but now I'm not working i've signed up to the premium and want to take it seriously. I've been endlessly researching, forums, reviews, youtube etc etc and feel like I can certainly make something out of it. I'm aware of the risks of gubbing, and trying to keep ones account under the bookies radar posing as a normal punter as best as I can etc. Even as a newbie I'm certainly not going to rush things, I want longevity and not a quick buck.

From my research, although people can make more, £500-£800 in todays MB climate seems to come across as the realistically doable targets??

If I could achieve that from my account I'd be more than happy.

But I've been thinking, once I've got the hang of my account, gained confidence from what I'm doing, why not set up more accounts BUT completely in certain family members names?

Theres 3 of them all together and all are very close to me etc etc and I have actually spoken to them about the idea, and what would be required of them for me to do this, bank details, ID, proof of address via utilities etc and they are all happy for me to do this. 2 of them are my Parents who are separated, live just around the corner from each other which is ideal. The other is my brother.

I understand this sort of thing can have an affect of credit rating potentially? Which the parents don't care about as they are retired and mortgage free, so thats another issue crossed off, all systems go on that front really. Oh I'd also operate these accounts from their address on their computers too so theres literally no connection to me at all, not even on my IP address as I won't be operating their accounts from mine at all or on my laptop.

Main question, am I being realistic with this idea? I can't see any real issues myself but someone else's opinion on the matter who is experience at MB'ing would be of great value.

Like I say my main aim would be to get to grips with my account first 100% but with the view to applying the above maybe several months down the line and actually earning a decent full-time take home.

Thanks again guys, sorry for waffling on.

The issue you’ve got is that you’re pretending to be those people

Yes they might be aware of what you’re doing but You’re creating accounts in their name and entering banking details in their name while agreeing each time that the person who is making the deposits is them and not you.

Hi All,
I’m a stay at home Mum that hasn’t worked for nearly 8 years!!! My background is in Financial Administration, have a Bsc in Food & Consumer Studies. I am good on excel, have an I-phone and really want to start earning some money again. I also love art, craft, history & educating children.
Where do I start? I really would prefer to work from home to fit in with my kids.
Any advice would be very well appreciated.
Many thanks,
Jodie
