Last spring, I became of the latest victims in this downtrodden economy. The company that I had worked for for ten years downsized my department, and I found myself suddenly jobless. As if that wasn't bad enough, I am also the single mother of one high school student and a college freshman!
I applied for every job I could find, but as a woman nearing fifty no one seemed to think I would be worth the investment. I had nowhere to turn and was terrified of winding up trapped in a job I hated with little pay...that is if I could find a job at all!
A few months after I lost my job, my younger sister came to visit for a week. Grateful to have another adult around to confide in, I expressed all my woes and worries about the future. As I was stifling back tears, my sister started to grin. After shooting her a confused and hurt look, she laughed and started to tell me about legitimate paid survey jobs on the internet.
She retold to me how she herself had stumbled across a site one day and decided to give it a try. She warned me about paid survey scams, and then went into how she's making almost as much from her computer at home as her husband does in his nine to five job.
Always the skeptic, I figured this was just way too good to be true. However, I was desperate for anything so that night I looked up some online survey jobs. I signed up with one of the websites and within a few minutes I was taking surveys. It was fun, I'll admit, but I figured it wouldn't pan out to anything more than that. The site showed how much I was "earning" though I doubted I would ever see a penny.
Over the next week or so I continued to dabble with taking surveys just for fun. Then, much to my surprise I received a check in the mail from the survey site. I was really making money taking surveys! Best of all, the check was for a decent amount even though I wasn't focusing much of my attention on the site.
As my next experiment, I spent eight hours at my computer taking surveys. It turns out, I was making more simply by taking legitimate paid surveys than I had been at my job! It seemed my prayers had been answered!
That day I stopped searching for a traditional job and became a stay at home online survey taker!
