Paid-to-Surf programs

[johnjohn320]

I lost some income recently, and really could stand to do earn a little on the side, however little. My cousin told me about UserTesting.com ; I dunno, it really sounds like something you'd get in a chain email or a spammed YouTube comment.

I almost believe I'm asking, but: what do you guys think? Any of these "provide feedback for our website" services actually amount to anything?

If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

I miss earning $5,000 online virtually doing nothing.

Well the stock market bubble is back, along with overpriced IPO/Dotcom stocks.

Did I forget to mention $1,000,000 signing bonuses as tech startups are back too?

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/recruiter-startups-offering-1-million-183600421.html

This year, a startup with revenues of $10 million wanted to find a new chief executive following its Series B raise and offered $450,000 in compensation (5% of revenues). Another startup, quickly growing and approaching an IPO, did a search for a CEO to lead it onto the public markets. In addition to a hefty compensation package, the board of the company is willing to put up a signing bonus of $1 million, to be delivered in two tranches over a year, for a vetted candidate willing to step up and sign the paperwork. Their offer is turned down.

So why not paid to surf schemes? :biggrin:

Ah, AllAdvantage. Those were indeed the good old days.
