Paid Online Surveys - Can You Actually Make a Living With Paid Surveys?

Giving your opinion by filling out online paid surveys is a popular, easy way to generate additional income. In fact, it has become so popular that some people ask if they can make a living by filling out paid surveys. This article explores the questions, the  possibilities, the pros and cons and some of the determining factors of making your living by means of paid online surveys.

Sure, it's easy to make money with paid online surveys.  But is it possible to make enough to support yourself?  Well, to give a complete answer, one would have to say that the answers are,  "No, probably not and maybe."  Let's look at each of these answers in turn.

No. Why no?

It's because:

1. Your income from paid online surveys is and will be variable, sometimes even sporadic. You have probably become accustomed to eating on a regular basis. The timing of your cash flows from paid online surveys might not align itself well with the needs of your stomach!

2.  While it is easy to make $200 - $600 a month, you have to work at it pretty hard to make $1,000 a month.  Sure, some people supplement surveys with paid to shop, paid to drive your car with ads on it, etc. and make up to $3,000 a month.  But higher incomes, while possible, are chancy. 

In summary: No, because income from paid surveys is the kind of money that is nice to spend when you get it, but not the dependable kind you need for buying your groceries and paying your rent.
