The side hustle activity is on! Each day, week and month, I track the income and expenses that are going in and out. This also includes tracking the extra income that you receive, even from side hustle/free ways to bring in extra income on the side. One of those fun activities that I add to my day have earned me well over $1,000. It all comes down to using the internet in a better way to add value to what is currently needed in your life (saving, invest, etc..). Find out how I have earned over $1,000 using a certain site : )
swagbucks Update – Proof is in the pudding
As everyone remembers, there are many side hustles and easy things you can be doing at home to make extra side-income. One of those can be the use of and having fun with – Swagbucks! I have been using the site for some time to – watch trailers, videos, read articles, shop online, buy gift cards, search for normal “things”, etc… and the best part of using the site is… ready for it? It pays you to perform these actions! I also had forgotten to mention- survey taking, ranging from 2 minutes to 25 minutes long with also a spectrum of swagbucks as a reward to perform the survey. I typically earn around 75-250 swagbucks per day or the equivalent of $0.75-$2.50 per day, by doing things I normally do – using a search engine, watching videos, movie trailers, etc.. It is so easy and does not alter or impact my day at all. I looked at my lifetime earnings and have snipped below the proof of my earnings of over 95,000 swagbucks:
Yes, you have seen/read that right – 74,707 whopping swagbucks. This translates into approximately ~$1,000 (as my amazon gift cards of $25, are typically at 10%+ discount!). Here is a sign up banner, yes, sadly this is a referral banner, but I support them, want to spread the news and want everyone to enjoy these benefits as well:
My Top 5 Things to do on Swagbucks
When thinking of swagbucks and what are the biggest bang I receive for using their site, would have to be the following items below. I’ll list hem out, provide a description and time table it takes:
1.) Searching. This has to be by far the easiest and quickest form to earn swagbucks. Approximate time is 1-3 seconds. Ever use Google? I thought you would say a resounding/dumbfounded “Yes”. Well with SB, you can perform your normal searches over the web on their site and earn swagbucks for it, it’s too damn easy.
2.) Surveys. if you really want to have the focus of earning swagbucks, then surveys are your best bet, as I’ve spent sometimes 2-5 minutes answering a survey for 100-200 swagbucks, boom done. This is definitely a fun way to actually provide some valuable insight.
3.) Videos. I love laying in bed at night and watching a few of my favorite movie trailers. Typically, a handful of them are worth a few swagbucks. I used to watch them on IMDB, but now I get paid to watch them.
4.) Polls. I answer the daily poll questions that are easy and fun, takes around 3-5 seconds to answer for swagbucks.
5.) Offers. Occasionally I will place my name in a mailer or complete some other form of offer to earn between 10 – 50 swagbucks, that can take anywhere from 30 seconds to 3 minutes. Worth it, but the e-mail can become burdensome, potentially.
Here is the real proof of my swagbucks cash outs for real awards:
In summary – these are easy, fun, free things you can do to earn these swagbucks, which translates into real money!
Swagbucks Potential – Example
For earning this $1,000, approximately, one can invest and buy a stock at 3.50%, nothing unreasonable, in fact – I did it with my recent Target (TGT) purchase. Let’s just use assumptions here, and say – with a 3.50% yield, a 7% dividend growth rate and a 7% stock appreciate rate, what would this look like in 15 years? $3,700!! Also, you definitely have more than tripled your investment income going forward on this.
What does this really mean? Each and every dollar counts. I cannot preach that ever more now, than ever. With the volatile stock market ahead of us, one can benefit from having as much cash possible for cushion purposes, as well as investment purposes. Also, I happen to love cashing out $25 from performing searches online and watching new movie trailers for upcoming movies, this stuff is actually fun!
To conclude, with all of these being said – how likely are you to sign up for swag bucks? Do you see a benefit from using this site?
