I really do have some free time from time to time which I usually invest in something useful like studying on my own, but I would like to be able to earn at least $1 a week filling out forms or transcribing texts or doing some simple task, and not as a job because I don’t have that much time either.

So far I’ve had experience as a freelancer and honestly I’ve had bad luck, in general I’ve only encountered scammers (in these areas) who wanted ME TO PAY THEM TO ACCEPT THEIR WORK, and then I’ve tried certain websites and apps that I’ve read that they recommend (in forums) and personally I’ve had no luck, I mean, I don’t expect to make a full salary filling out forms but $0.25 for a form a day? Are you kidding me? I guess it has to do with my geographic area. (LATAM)

Again, I know money is hard to earn and it’s naive to believe that I’m getting paid for doing something easy that anyone can do, but I’d like to at least be able to earn without a joke $1 a week.

    i second the prolific recommendation
    the volume of studies you get is variable, depending on demographic information and time of day/week/year
    you get the most during uni term-time on weekdays in my experience
    the money is also very variable, but they have guaranteed minimums per hour
    i usually have a bunch of <10 minute studies that pay ~£1 (works out to slightly under national minimum wage), but about once or twice a week i’ll get one that pays a fiver for like 15 minutes (over minimum wage)
    sometimes i’ll get one that’s ~1 hour and pays £30 (triple minimum wage), but that’s pretty rare

    over the last ~3 years i have made £961.67, and i don’t check as often as i should tbh, i could have made way more than that
