03/27 - Cheesecake Monday!

[Drwho10]

How much do you guys average a day? And how much time do you spend on average? I'm trying to do $10 a day, just to have more spending money while in College.

I started mturk 'cause i wanted some side money in college to hang out with friends and go to the bar and stuff. $10-$20 a day was ezpz between classes and a bit in the morning or evening. I was more of an opportunistic turker I still am since i do this for extra spending money in addition to my regular job. Just kept scraper open and the forum while i was studying and when something popped i'd do it then go back to my studies. Mturk is great for side money its when you try to live off it where it gets tricky and frustrating, but its doable

Usually I have to sleep with @Vanyanka in order to earn my pay for the day. What can you do though, you know?

Never heard it said better. I don't make much more now than when I started but I spend a HELL of a lot less time doing it now.

Not sure, normally around 2 hours to reach 10, but sometimes I find a good one and can make $15-20 an hour and will do those as long as I can. I normally find hits from Reddit but I've been hanging here the past couple days.

seems like you're already in good shape,
probably already have a decent number of completed hits?
I can't understand that so many requesters require you to have completed so many hits

First problem is reddit

Yeah its not enough to go off of, I've found a few easy ones and its good for 2-3 easy bucks a day.

That's pretty much what I'm doing it for, don't have any bills per say but gas money and booze money is the goal. What scraper(s) do you recommend?

I've been hovering around $60 for awhile. For what was essentially a survey day I'm alright with it.

If I lose to cheese. I may have to question my life ...again.

Yeah those are basic. The thing is jobs come and go. Sometimes they're around for a week and sometimes a year or more. You gotta get ANY qualification you can but prioritize it by the TO rating. Not really great to have a qual for a crappy requester that rejects all the time. And don't just read the green bars. Read the actual reviews and see what people say about the requester or the hit itself.

Need to adapt to the jobs as they come since I wont know whats coming. got it
For the most part im sticking to hits that have almost no rejection rate. As I finish more of the days hits up though im sure they wont all be green
