Who Paid You For/In July 2022? Here is my list + Lets talk about Time.
The dog days of August are upon us, back to school coming up, then Halloween and the holiday Season. Most people should be ramling up their beermoney but my numbers are dropping.. lets dive in AND lets talk about time.
2nd straight month under $1K and less than less month. WHy you ask? Because great things are happening in the life of the Ox. I signed a sponsorship deal for my morning live streams that is higher than my monthly earnings. Because im still in debt, im still working everything with beermoney but its a balance between streaming, trading and beermoney. Trading is my future and as that continues to improve I expect these numbers will continue to drop.
But speaking of time... Ive been getting some blowback and even some hate because I dont list how much time I put into beermoney. Ive been accused of giving people false hope. So I want to address this.
Beermoney is just like any other skill or industry. No one should expect to read my posts and immediately make the money im making. These monthly posts were never ever meant to be bragging.. nor were they meant to make anyone thing that this can be done as soon as they start. Ive never hidden the fact that this was my full time gig. BUT in that same token, there are lots of people who make more than me with less time. I type with 2-3 fingers and slowly. I dont do apps like user testing and others like it, which seem to be where the big bucks are at now.
For me though, its just impossible to track time. I might be doing Mturk and stop in the middle of a HIT to take a trade setup.. monitor the trade, and then return. Or I might be doing something in Swagbucks and the same. And how do I count the time spent on things like shopping cash back?
ANd honestly my time wont matter. Some Mturk survey questions Ive literally seen thousands of times. I can answer these faster than most because of repitition. If I make X amount per hour, its still going to be different for a new person, or a person with a 100WPM tying skills, or someone hyper focused or someone that mnight have to deal with their kids interupting etc.
So I cant help anyone who wants to know time. Becuse there is no way to accurately track it. AND it wont be the same for you as it is for me. I hope that explains why I dont post time.
NEXT
As I saidtrading is my future and I still hope to ditch the majority of beermoney in the next couple months, but will never give it up totally
If you have any interest in learning to trade and/or getting funded check out my subreddit r/oxmarkettrading. I also stream 5 times a week on youtube and am more than happy to answer beermoney questions on there as well
July summary
Pretty much a non-descript month. Nothing exciting or tragic
Mturk was mostly my main batch.. hotel photos. With some other stuff mixed in. Trading took my time away from it. Swagbucks was normal.
Prolific was down again this month but I like them more than Mturk because no need to queue the HITs and try to get through everything in your queue. They should pick up a bit more as schools go back
Simcash struggled but phonepaycheck reached cashout after a 2 month hiatus. Plus the normal tricklers.
August has 23 weekdays and weekdays are better than weekends for most beermoney.. so use that to its fullest.
There are two general things I want to chat about though that dont have to do with earnings.
The first is Mturk. I get a lot of questions about Mturk each month. And I dont mind helping and answering questions so dont think im complaining. BUT.. I have written an Mturk 101 that might answer a lot of questions you might have. Its linked on the right hand side of this subreddit.
The second thing is people from countries other than the US contacting me. Again I certainly dont mind, but I really have no idea what works in other countries. Its just not something I have the time to keep up on. And I hate that there arent many options for people outside of the US/UK/CA. Its heartbreaking when someone says just $25 a month would make a big difference and I dont know where to refer them to. SO if you arent from the US.. I honestly dont know how to help you but wish I could
So thats my Julye. How did you do? .

FAQ
I live outside the USA. How can I earn?
Unfortunately most of the stuff I do is either USA only or US/UK/CA/AU. So its hard for me to advise whats available to people outside of those areas. If you live outside those 4 countries I really dont have advice for you. And I dont have much advice for even outside the USA.
How Much Time do you spend with this?
Its Hard to quantify. I am in front of a computer ALOT but its not always focused on making money. I have games I play and have scripts that watch for HITs ON Mturk so if something pops thats good I switch over. Plus Im often doing multiple things at once. That said.. there are people who make more then me with less time. Im actually very inefficient.
Why dont you get a real job?
Health issues.. and I can nap at 1PM.. and I dont have a boss looking over my shoulder... and I can work naked (I dont.. or do I....)
You must have a ton of referrals to make that much!
All the totals above represent only personal earnings. I seperate out ref earnings.
OMG! You must cheat somehow to make so much!
I do nothing outside the TOS of any of the programs. I consider this income to be a blessing and wouldnt do anything to jeopardize that. Plus cheating just kills programs and defrauds the companies that are allowing me to make this income.
Do you have to pay taxes on all of this
Yes on most of it. There are some exceptions but the majority of this income is taxable. Most of these companies dont issue 1099s but that doesnt mean you dont have to pay taxes. Please consult a tax professional if you have questions on how to handle taxes on "beermoney" income
