Motivation for what?

There is no way to know what you need to do to get Masters. That is what makes it so frustrating.
I am a planner and would love to have a plan of action to get Masters

You have to rub Jeff Bezo's bald head and if you do it right, he lays an egg that has within it a Masters qual.

It makes me work harder. I've always been a competitive person (although I'm also largely cooperative). I also kind of enjoy being a model for people who don't have a lot of the fancy quals or the big Masters qual, not that I wouldn't take the qual at first sight lol. It is entirely possible to make good money here, you just have to educate yourself through trial and error. I mean, you guys have seen me, I do more surveys than most people here, but I have no problem with that. If that is my way of finding my niche on mturk for now, so be it. I think I'm very fortunate to have a largely friendly community such as this one, be able to work in the comfort of my own home with my own food and in my own chair. It's largely freeing and independent in a sense. Maybe I'm blissfully ignorant, but I enjoy what I do.

I love working on MTurk also and I don't mind sharing what I've learned in a relatively short amount of time here.
I wasn't trying to put you down. I'm just saying looking at Masters hits wouldn't have the same motivation as looking at hits that require 10k approved. With those, I know what I have to do, and I make a plan and stuck to it. When I first started I made sure I did at least 100 hits a day (after probation) so I could get to 5k and 10k quickly.
With Masters, you can't make a plan. It's too random.

everything you need to know to do what ^^ does

is on the internet.

nobody is hiding anything.

no big magical secrets or secret societies.

no need to be a red panda.

The only quals I really have that people kind of want are Pews (who posts rarely) and Garners (who a lot of people have really no interest in).

Haha. One thing you do that I don't like is all the shitty low paying surveys :p. As long as someone is doing them, they have no motivation to increase the pay.

Okay.

Hear me out on this one.

Like to Message Ratio on the profile.

Those with the best ratios earn the most elite shit-poster titles.

I like how hard you work. I mean not having masters sucks. I don't have it either. I'm glad you're super open about stuff and have embraced this community. cheers to you comrade!

Hi all. I got a really really late start to the turk day. It's been a good day though. I hope you all have had a good one as well.
