Before I start this InboxDollars review, let’s put the facts on the table:
- Inbox Dollars - Get paid to check your email. $5 bonus just for signing up!
- Survey Junkie - The #1 survey site that doesn't suck. Short surveys, high payouts, simply the best.
- Nielsen - Download their app and get paid $50!
- We all read emails.
- We all love money.
- It would be really awesome to get paid to read emails.
InboxDollars promises just that and they even go as far as to make the claim that ‘Money really does grow on trees.’ But just how accurate are these claims? Can you really get paid to just read emails? We wouldn’t call ourselves professional product and program testers if we didn’t give you an answer to these questions.
You can make money, but that doesn’t mean you necessarily will make money.
Each email that you read will net you anywhere between 1 to 10 cents. But these aren’t emails you would normally want to read. They’re advertisements for various programs or products that would result in InboxDollars making hefty revenue if you followed through and signed up for the program. Aside from emails, you can also “get paid” to play games, sign up for surveys, sign up for programs, shop, and search the internet.
What you aren’t told is that you will need to start spending money first and you’ll receive a measly percentage back on your spendings. This is the hidden truth behind their “get paid to” claims.
Take for example, this “Deal” offered for LifeLock. You get paid $20 if you spend anywhere from $120 to $324 for a LifeLock membership.
Okay, sure, this might be a deal if you are actually interested in their service and would like some money back, but for 99% of users this “deal” is completely meaningless.
My Results
I’ve been a member for about two weeks now and I have received 14 emails for a total of $0.40 cents. That’s a little less than 3 cents per email. If we take into account the $5.00 sign up bonus and the $1.00 introduction survey, I will need to read approximately 857 more emails.
At the current rate of 1 email per day, I’m looking at over 2 years of reading email just to receive my first $30 check. I don’t know about you, but I have better things to do than click on an advertisement once a day for the next 2 years just to receive $30.
You make a lot of progress really fast early on, but according to our readers in the comments below and some of the reviews we’ve seen around the web, emails start to slow when you approach the cash out mark.
Even worse, there are reports of accounts getting closed right when they are ready to cash out. We can’t confirm these reports and InboxDollars does reserve the right to cancel your account if you violate their code of conduct.
The Real Source of Funds
At this point, you’re probably asking yourself how could they possibly make money by sending out emails. I decided to look into a few of the programs that are heavily promoted throughout the site. Take for example, eBay. InboxDollars will pay you $6.00 to sign up at eBay and place a bid. Not bad right? Wrong. They’re making anywhere between $25-$35 every time a new user signs up at eBay and places a bid.
Stamps.com is also heavily promoted at a $10 bonus just for signing up for their free trial. However, in the event you forget to cancel the free trial after a couple of weeks, you will be billed $15.99 per month and InboxDollars makes $50.
Stay far away from any free trial offers. That is where you will most likely lose a lot of money.
It sounds like users are getting the short end of the stick while InboxDollars laughs all the way to the bank.
I’ve tried that and I don’t like it.
If you have nothing better to do than to read emails (read: view advertisements) for the next few years, then by all means sign up and get started. I do feel that doing anything at InboxDollars aside from reading emails is a recipe for disaster.
In an extreme case, suppose you sign up for the Stamps.com free trial and forget about your account. In a month you will be billed and in the event that you refuse to pay you can have your account forwarded to collections which could have a disastrous effect on your credit score.
This result could yield hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars in damages all for a measly $10.
Personally, I’m closing my account.
No joke. Here are the fastest ways to make easy money online. Click here to see how.
How Does Inbox Dollars Compare?
If you’re looking for a decent alternative, I would highly suggest looking into SwagBucks. I’ve reviewed them a few months back and I’ve actually made money and was able to cash it out. and give some tips on how to quickly start making some money with them.
SwagBucks does pay you to do a number of things, watch videos, play games, answer surveys, but my favorite is that they pay you just to search the web. SwagBucks gets paid by sending you Google’s sponsored results and, as a thank you, sends some of their earnings back to you.
I’ve switched my main search engine to SwagBucks. They are using Google’s results, so you are still seeing the same exact page you’d see if you searched Google directly. But by going through them first, you can earn some extra money.
I highly suggest that you create an account today. You’ll quickly see why I recommend SwagBucks over InboxDollars. Plus, you get a free $5 bonus just for signing up.
SwagBucks Pays: Here’s Proof
I can’t make a recommendation without offering a little bit of proof that it actually works.
Here’s a look at my total earnings so far:
1 SwagBuck roughly equals 1 penny. So I’ve made approximately $928.78 since joining!
And here’s a peek at my personal cash outs.
You can redeem your SwagBucks for a number of things, but I’ve found it’s best to go for gift cards at places you normally shop. That seems to get you the most value for your “SwagBuck” and if you are as addicted to Amazon as I am, it’s a great way to lower your credit card bill.
That’s right. I’ve been able to make over $900 and it didn’t take over 2 years of clicking links in emails.
The Bottom Line
If you’ve gotten this far, by now you should realize I’m not a fan of InboxDollars.
There are better alternatives out there that have proven track records.
I’d suggest you stick with something else.
i apply for my check today jan 4,2009 i had gotten up to over 30.00 dollars they said they will mail the check march 2,2009.my question is why so long?then they want 3.00 dollars processing fee.for what i did the work not them.iam leaving this company after i get my money i think they are crooks.
I’ve used both inboxdollars and mypoints for many years. I always check inbox for rebates & deals before I buy anything. If there’s nothing for what I want, I buy at mypoints. Every Christmas I get free gift cards for my kids from mypoints, and I’ve gotten over $500 back from inbox, so I’m a fan of them both.
I’ve triedto keep an open mind about inboxdodlers!YES dodlers!Seems no matter how hard I try to do thier surveys? they promise more and give less!So i’ve decided 2 try other avenooz!They’re a scam as far as I have seen!Just be warned’It’s not worth them selling your e-mail address!!!!!
2 anoying ads. that are not worth any amount of$!
I have been a member of both MyPoints & Inbox Dollars since the late 1990’s. Both are legitimate as far as the rewards go, but both require work on your part in order to reap those rewards. If you have time to do the click-thru’s, then go for it, but if you lead a busy life-style, you may want to pass on these.
Donna B.
I just signed up for InboxDollars, but after reading everyone’s experience and how long it takes to make some money, I’m going to cancel my account. I’m just going to stick to being a guide at ChaCha. At least they are a legitimate company. It’s a little faster in earning money than InboxDollar. Plus you don’t have to deal with a lot of bs. Good luck everyone!
Has anyone tried processemail.net? If so is this a scam or can u really make $25 per e-mail?
Donny, have you already received a payout with your bank of mail?
Don’t get scammed by inbox dollars few cents here and there with a $25 dollar payout! they are truly scammers
i have been using a site that pays $50.00 a refferal and $100 per email! this is no scam take a look
I was reading all the things everyone wrote,I have been with inbox for 4 months and now earned my first $30(I do not sign up for anything costing money), but I am waiting until the end of the year to request a check.One time I did not get any emails for a week.I contacted them and they started the next day.I was doing tiktik cash.It took me 2 years to get $70(you have to reach $100),and they would not send more emails,could not login,so after 3 months they take your money back.They are the biggest rip offs.To me doing this is just a little extra money.Every little bit helps in these hard time
Yes, this company is running a scam. I spent over a year reading emails to get to the $30 minimum needed to request a check payment. When I finally earned $30 I requested my check, then stopped reading the emails that were coming to me. My account went inactive before they could send it out so they canceled payment. Now they are refusing to pay me. It’s not worth it to deal with this company.

I’ve only been with Inbox for 2 mos and it took me 2 mos to reached $30. Those survey’s are lengthy and the paid emails, are like .02 cents each. Oh and when you finally reach your $30, Inbox will deduct $3 for processing fee. What a rip-off and the check will be processed according to their schedule. So I request mine today and I’m getting $27 back and I should get the check in Jan. 09!
Look, it should be completely obvious. NOBODY will ever give out free money online unless they are making something out of it. All you are doing is helping scammers make more and more money. If you actually consider that it is possible to make big bucks online, then their scam is working on you.
Just get a job, and make money.

I just got paid 30 dollars. You can -very easily- achieve the 30.00 Minimum for payout. Then once you get the Gold Membership, it becomes even easier to make the minimum again. Maybe take a look again. I personally wouldn’t trust him and his results ^_^
I can’t believe anyone is making money at this. The first survey paid $5.00 and the 2nd paid .50. After that I was only getting .01 cent to look at the info. I took a survey and didn’t qualify. They are basically just trying to sell insurance, etc. It would take forever to get the $30.00 payout. Is is really worth the time and effort?
I have been with InboxDollars with years… I’d say that i’ve gotten about 6 checks… which, when I wasn’t working…. came in handy here and there.
Right now I’ve got $42.00 in my account. I’ll admit that I haven’t been active on the program in about 4 months because I’ve had a very busy work schedule, but the first payout I ever received…. was for $82 within a couple months, that’s when I was about 18, and living with my parents… but you know what? It paid my cell phone bill and it put gas in the car. I wasn’t planning on doing it to be a millionaire.
Their surveys initially used to net you $1 per survey… and you could do one paid survey per day. Beings I used to go on there everyday… i was netting $30/month just from surveys… they have since gone down to $0.50/survey… but still… one survey per day will net you $15/month then you throw in the emails… which bring in about another $5/month if you check them all… and i’ve done a few of the offers, when I decided to go back to Netflix, i signed up through inbox dollars and I think i got $15 for that… when my boyfriend wanted Gamefly… we signed up through my inboxdollars account… my freecreditreport.com account… also through them… so I got paid a bonus for all of those… those are EVERYDAY services that people sign up for anyway, everyday. I’m due for my next check in November. It’ll be another $40 something dollar check. This program is a great program if you give it some time and don’t expect it to pay your mortgage… is just a good little bonus for when you have time to kill…. if i’m going to go online anyway.
Am currently with InboxDollars. The intial credits were prompt, but have mysteriously stopped as I started to get close to the magic $30 number!
Haven’t yet received credit from several offers, including “Stamps.com”($5), “NetFlix”($10) and numerous other $1-$2 offers.
Hard to believe it is coincidence, just as I am getting close to the $30 mark.
I smell a scam.
I have some suggestions.
Looking at your blog you should qualify for PayPerPost and Bloggerwave with less problems than I had.
That should get you at least $20 from PPP and $10 from BloggerWave just for adding their recruiting post to your site.
Even my poor site has had a couple of recruits as well. Depends if $30-$50 is worth your time spent on it from your point of view.
Your BLOG has a rank 4! That should get you about 80% of the paid post opportunities, some are worth up to $135 an article!
Wish I had a blog as good as yours, I am envious.
If you reconsider paid posting opportunities, please feel free to join from my blog articleonthe 2 sites mentioned.

I should have over $100 just in time to request it for extra christmas cash. I get about $100 a year just playing around with it whenever I feel like it and don’t have anything else to do. I do get my checks and I can cash them. that’s all I really care about. Ever since surfing took all my money I haven’t been playing at anything online to make money. Adsense is never going to pay out, surveys are a waste of time for a 54 year old white woman with a grown child, pay per blog post is not worth the effort. I’m thinking about doing product reviews. I have something supposed to be coming in the mail to review. Should be interesting if it pans out. that’s about it for me.
Erm… Ive made almost 300.00 with Inbox Dollars, mostly by doing surveys, answering emails, getting referrals and signing up for programs and canceling before they charge. Its not that difficult to remember to cancel. You just keep a log of who and what you signed up with. And in the event you forget to write it down, inbox dollars keeps their own logs FOR you. Its not that difficult really. Its all about being responsible.
Sounds like a case of sour grapes to me.
I been with inbox dollars for about two months. I already reached the $30. I requested my check and they take off $3 for some fee. When i first joined i earned $5. After you request your first check, you’re automatically a gold star member. This gives you more emails, more referral points, more surveys, etc. The only reason why I earned money in so little time is because I ordered supplies for my company through the shopping feature. Inbox dollars isn’t a scam. The check does take a long time to process. If $30 isn’t enough money for you, just wait until you reach $100. I think $100 dollars is worth waiting for.
I have been with indollars for 6 months now and have accumulated $26.01. Now they stopped sending me e-mails and they do not have any more surveys for me and today I can’t even get to there site. Maybe its because I am close to the $30.00 i need to get a check.
I am close to cashing out for my first check, suddenly my account comes up as inactive. I normally get four to five emails per day, and after two days of none, went to check on my account and found it marked inactive. Went through and updated profile, waited for the confirmation email, nothing. Whats going on? Anyone have any suggestions?
Hi Pat, if you read my comments on Aug 2 and Aug 24, you will see that i have trouble getting my “stamps.com” credit from InboxDollars as well. i finally did get credit through trouble ticket submission. as you can see… it took around 20 days! i already cash in on inboxdollars and no longer active with them. but be sure to get that $8!
I think that Inbox Dollars has gone to cheating people. I received an offer for Entertainment Book. If I purchased the book for $9.99 plus S&H, Inbox would credit my account with $8.
That was over two weeks ago. Numerous E mails to Inbox, telephone calls and E mails to Entertainment, and all I have gotten is the runaround. I think that Inbox has gotten very bad in that they are not giving you any of the credit you have earned!
Well Inbox dollars was decent until 2008. they removed one of the refferal bonuses (when your contacts click on paid emails you would recieve 10%)…They also decrease the 1.00 survey reward to .50 cents…while they themselves pocket I believe about 10-5 dollars from each survey taken by their customers.
I have received a check from them, and I am close to a second..but after this one I will close my account. Simply not worth it anymore.
Philip: Thank you for the comment/reply. You provided detailed information and exactly explained why people (including myself) do GPT. I did finish reading your comment/reply. =)
Let me start by explaining that I am writing this on a laptop whose space bar is wrecked by my kids playing games, hence any run-together words left that I missed, please excuse my lack of time to keep correcting the problem by editing every occurence.
Having read all the post in this thread, I like a happy ending.
The problem was with perception, both parties are correct, to someone like Bernie, it is a waste of time they can use to earn far more by doing other things.
To someone like me (in the past) it might(seem to) be the only way we can easily derive some money for time spent on the Internet.
I did PTC / GPT a few years ago, I also supplied a service (proofreading and revenue advice and a shoulder to cry on) to some of the webmasters running these in the past, but only those that did not seem like scams.
Yet I stopped after a while as they ALL folded up after a while if they only relied on advertising to pay people to read the ads.
Many, like the “Turner Clickbux family” sites ended up as scams, and even some like MayaPaid4Mails started out honourably but dissappeared due to insolvency (and the lovely webmistress dying of cancer).
The conclusion, as one who WASTED too much time on GPT is, they are a waste of time IF you can spend that time doing a real physical job paid for by an employer, or as Bernie does, makes real money from a lucrative niche on the web. They can also so easily end up folding due to being planned badly from the start and folding up and vanishing from insolvency, so you spend all the time and at the end near payout, find they have gone and you do not get paid.
However, InboxDollars seems to have been around for ages so must have something going for it. It is just I have made a decision that I do not want to spend time on this particular one, I already waste enough time on MutualPoints, and have no time to spare for any more of this kind of scheme.
I agree that surveys are the better way to add to your income, both on INBOXDOLLARS and under your own control.
There is nothing to stop you signing up to a site like the ones listed on my website, and get all of the money for doing a survey instead of only a fraction that may be paid from a GPTD (get paid to do) site.
The best survey sites used to include Saros for the UK only, and YouGov, for UK, US only, but I no longer recruit for YouGov as they have done something to their site and I did not like the way the earnings from recruits just suddenly stopped as soon as they changed the referral code they supplied, and how there seemed to be so many problems with bugs in the surveys all of a sudden which stopped me earning much.
Global Test Market is good as it gives you points (that exchange into money) for attempting a survey, even if you do not complete it because you do not fit the profile wanted for that survey, (obviously if you do complete it you get a lot more). This is rare enough amongst survey sites to make them worth joining just for that.
HiPoints is another like that, funnily enough I do not have a link to them on my site, partly because they have stopped paying for recruiting new memebrs for them. I would join them as wellif I were you.
What irritates me is those sites that you start a survey and plough through it for 5 minutes only to suddenly be told that you are not wanted and you will not get paid for the time you spent. I suspect that they stilluse the information you gave them for some purpose, and have got it for free!
Ciao is one of those kinds of sites,I am STILL a member but usually delete their surveys as bordering on scam waste of my time for nothing. Having said that, I have been paid several times £5 when I finally accumulated enough for the rare times I decided to try a survey and was allowed to finish and not rejected, so they are not a scam as such, just very annoying! They were taken over by Greenfield Online, an organisation about which not a lot of good things have been said in the past, as you may find out if you Google them.
I now cover my broadband expenses with my owne paid survey information sites, some affiliate earnings,and Google Ads revenue.
Not any where near as successful as Bernie, but then I have a new full time job that I am having to learn so much for, that I could not spend the time yet to develop it into a full time self-employed job. Nor would I have the guts to, possibly as I have not got the talent for being self-employed, I need direction as my old boss said while kicking me out into the new job I now have.
Any road up, as they say “oop ‘t North” of the country, I belong to MutualPoints, the bought-out UK version of My Points (which it was originally called in the UK) and have had a few payments from them just from reading their emails.
It takes about 6 months or more to get £20 ($40) but if you are clearing mailboxes, why not get paid to flick through them before deleting them anyway?
My philosophy is that if you have to wait 2 years for £50 (as YouGov used to be for me) and 6-9 months for £20 from MutualPoints, and a year for Global Test Market $50 or for HiPoints to send a $50 GloboGift voucher (converts to an Argos £25 if the exchange rate is right), and so on, then in the end, if you are just spending a few minutes a day extra, not having to leave the house (travel time to and from an external physical job is non paid and non productive) then why not?
Think of it another way, if someone came up to you and said they wanted you to throw away £100 a year you would object.
Not collecting the easy money from the right sort of scheme that can still be found amongst all the scams and time wasters on the Internet, is almost like refusing the offer of money, or throwing money away, nobody would normally do so.
The problem comes from what is called Opportunity Cost in Economics, Bernie is right, if you have the time spare, and can get an activity that pays 10 or 100 times more than 3 cents a minute, then have a rethink about what you are doing. The cost of doing the email clicking is actually the loss of the larger amount of money you could potentially be earning doing something better for the same length of time.
Well, I have rambled on enough, doubt anyone will bother to get to the bottom of this, so I might as well stop now.
I’ve been with MyPoints for almost 5 years. I don’t do as much shopping online as I used to, so it takes a little longer to get points, but it’s still worth it to me. Two clicks and you get points, more for registering on sites, signing up for news letters, shopping, etc. I’ve probably earned AT LEAST one $50 gift card per month in the past 5 yrs, more before Christmas, graduation parties, etc., when I shop alot. In my house, that helps-I send them to the kids (all in college!!)and they get to eat out or buy themselves something.
Hi,
i have been with inbox and sendearnings for over a year now, i have recieved a check for over 35 dollars and up every month alternating with inbox and sendearnings (one month from sendearnings, next month from inbox and so on). thats just with doing 1 survey a day with both (each one =$1.00). surveys can be from 5 to 20 min. long. if you join both you will get paid every month. you won’t make money just clicking on emails, you have to do the surveys, use the emails as extra change. i have no complaints with them (well…maybe the 3.00 processing fee).
this is first time i been in here. i happened to stumble on this site somehow & started reading/scanning thru these posts. im with inbox, send earnings & mypoints right now.
inbox i been with for about 3 months & already got $32 which i know i can ask for payout on but havent done it yet. i got this money mostly thru cash surveys & 100% free offers & of course clicking on emails.
mypoints i been with for years have gotten merchandise from them with the points so they are very reputable.
send earnings been with for 3 months but its a little slower getting money cause i think inbox & send are almost the same & have same advertisers etc so when you sign up for offers at one you cant sign up for the same offers at the other.
hope you all dont mind a newbie giving opinion. have a good day everyone.
Thank you! to both Bernie and Steve
Thank you Holly – I am! I just wish someone would tell my wife that! lol
The thing to remember with things like Clickbank et al, is that it does take time to see money flowing into your account. And as Steve said, if a customer wants a refund, you lose your commissions in the process. It’s only happened to me once, a few years ago, so it’s not a common occurrence.
Use the tutorials on Clickbank – they make all the difference when choosing which products you want to promote!
I also recommend ‘Insider Secrets To Marketing Your Business On The Internet’ by Corey Rudl (actually I think it’s now owned by his old friend as sadly, Corey was killed in a car crash shortly after I bought my copy of his guide in 2005). You can probably find a used or new copy of that on eBay for much less than it is sold for on the actual site at marketingtips.com – just remember though, if you buy it from ebay, you won’t be covered by the guarantees that the original site gives you.
It’s a GREAT publication, easy reading despite there being TWO folders to go through and they supply you with free DVDs to guide you too.
As it says in a part of the guide: “The key here is NOT to be greedy and think one product or idea will make you rich. It’s to go after small markets with small profits – building each business and THEN automating it so it is almost completely handsfree.”
I found this publication extremely helpful and saw just why I wasn’t making any money on the internet during the 1990’s!
Have a great day and I apologize to you too for being a bit hasty with my prior burbling! ;-)
Bernie thank you very much for the information. I may check into clickbank as a result of your comment. I know you’re not worried about my opinion, which I understand that, but I’m beginning to think you’re a pretty nice guy!
Clickbank is, by far, the best affiliate program to join in terms of tracking and reporting. Their member center can easily run circles around Google, Commission Junction, or any other affiliate/PPC programs.
The biggest (only?) downfall with Clickbank is that at any time, for any reason, a previous customer can request a refund (again for any reason, even ‘no reason’ is sufficient!) and instantly receive their money back and still retain the product in their possession. As an advertiser, Clickbank covers for this by keeping a percentage of your paycheck each month as ‘allowance,’ but as a publisher, if someone requests a refund your SOL. For me, this is the biggest problem plaguing Clickbank at this point in time.
Julia – thanks for your question.
Ebay is pretty easy once you get around it several times. Unless you have something unique to sell, or perhaps something you know someone else could use – like books, vehicles, software, etc, I don’t recommend selling just anything you can get your hands on. In the early days, I looked for anything and everything to sell – big mistake.
On Ebay, you’ll notice that many sellers have unique items such an antique of some sort or a new technology that just recently came on the market. They are successful because they found their niche market to sell to. Ebay is a great business to have from home, but can be hard work, and it isn’t the great shop in the sky it once used to be.
Egold is okay, and I have made thousands of dollars by using them, but again, it’s getting harder to earn money with them due to overflow of people using them. Also, they are heading for a law suit in April of this year. They were accused of being a Ponzi Scheme by a businessman who lost millions of dollars with them – although it was his own fault for not watching the markets close enough.
With clickbank, you simply find products you want to market and they give you an affiliate ID. You can easily change your ID to look like a more professional webpage. You’ll need to go to a domain name seller and check if the name you want is available. For example, if my affiliate ID is something like: http://myidhere.producthere.hop.clickbank.net/
I can then buy a name from a seller (I use namecheap.com), so let’s say I buy http://www.superllama.com, I can then redirect it through the name seller or where ever I decide to ‘park’ that name while I own it, to show the clickbank ad.
Now I’ll grant you, to make any decent kind of money, you’ll need to have a lot of ads on a lot of pages, but this is no longer the tedious task it used to be, thanks to a new product called Clickbank Buddy. It changes and rotates ads for you automatically on every web page you have them!
The best thing I like about Clickbank is, it’s FREE to join and you can be advertising in mere minutes. Yes, it does take time to start to see money coming in, but once you get into it, it is so easy to do.
I hope this helps.
STEVE – if I offended anyone I apologize – to you. ;-)
Bernie, was it really that hard to just provide information instead of all the bitter name calling? You and I do very similar work and it sounds like you can provide a lot of insight into what you do. I know it’s extremely profitable and in high-demand right now and more power to you for taking the initiative to work for yourself.
Also, don’t confuse me with ‘steve’ from above. He’s a random commenter. I’m the post author and I too am against InboxDollars.
Bernie: thank you for sharing your methods of making money online and the Cultural Exchange Program. I’ve heard people making money through clickbank and ebay also (it’s my first time hearing egold). i’m curious, did it take you long to get a hang of doing the clickbank and ebay (and egold)?
Oh, and occasionally I buy and sell domain names. Sometimes I develop them into sites, sometimes I don’t.
Buying a domain name for $9 and selling it for $100’s or $1000’s is an INDESCRIBABLE feeling! Yeah, yeah, I know you think I’m talking rubbish, but the domain name market is going to be huge by 2010. Most of the names I buy sell for $25~$50 or so, but when you’re selling 10 or more a month, it’s a nice little earner!
Holly…I believe I already did tell you how you can make money, but the post was deleted.
I have several ways online – Clickbank, Ebay and Egold are just three good earners for me.
With a good friend in Hawaii (where he lives, not me) we help others set up their online communications systems for their businesses.
My hosting site has been in operation for a year and I usually give free hosting accounts to low income earners trying to pull themselves up financially by starting some type of online web business. (Sorry Janice, I don’t give them to adult sites or those that have show gory content – just thought I should mention that before you jump over that next conclusion!)
And I build content sites for niche businesses and startups.
Those are just some of the things I do to make a great living. There’s no reason why anyone here can’t do the same – but believing that $30 for two year’s worth of clicks is justified??? Please, don’t make me laugh!
Janice, unless you have an IQ of 158 or more, then you don’t have an IQ higher than mine. Average is 110 btw.
“Don’t bother trying to insult my intelligence thats useless.” – you ain’t wrong!
And for your obvious misguided judgement Janice, my goal of coming here was to let as many people as possible know what a complete waste of time and effort Inbox Dollars really is!!
“My JOB allows me to come and go as I need to.With pay.Any yes my daughter is going to college majoring in dance and journalism and will one day have the words to write about losers like you.”
point: *Any = And – and you have a high IQ huh?
And as for your daughter writing about me, well, that may be possible in the future, but more likely about how I’ve been a complete SUCCESS in my last 20 years since losing my own daughter and turning my life around!
I live in a beautiful country abroad, nice sunny weather almost everyday. I work from home, I employ college graduates for a year at a time in my Cultural Exchange program here, giving them free flights from and to their home country btw, so they can experience things in life at their young age that I couldn’t when I was their age!
“I dont delete posts, and I’ve already won the argument, because doing what you are doing doesn’t deem happiness, and I am happy.If what you deem happiness also includes your nasty mouth and attitude,then you are not successful but then again I am.
OK Steve…Joe what is this guy still doing here??????”
I never said YOU deleted the posts, so don’t jump to conclusions. And if you really think you’ve ‘won’, that’s fine. I have dealt with people like you many times in my life and I guarantee one thing, you will always want to have the last word and feel that you have the upperhand.
As for “what you are doing doesn’t deem happiness”…ummmm, okay, you’ve completely lost me there….I’m ECSTATIC that I make around $3000 a WEEK working from HOME! And let’s not forget the $75,000 plus a year I make from the Cultural Exchange business too! (which incidentally, the profits of which go to local charities!).
You have a very strange idea about people Janice.
The only one who seems to need anger management classes here would be yourself. As for suggesting I abuse my son…I think it’s you who has the nasty mouth, not me.
Good luck with your little 3cent clicks, let me know when you make as much in a month as I do,by doing them and I’ll come groveling back begging for forgiveness for speaking freely and trying to keep decent people from wasting their time.
Steve, I changed the website, I guarantee you it isn’t an affiliate link. ;-)
His comments have been picked up by the spam filter as spam due to the link he sues with his name. I’m tired of editing it out, so they remain in the spam folder.
Janice, for the entertainment value, of course. :) I don’t know what the deleting posts reference is about. We only delete posts if you call people names or include affiliate links or other spam.
You know Bernie you really do have a problem.Was your goal to come here to argue with people? Don’t bother trying to insult my intelligence thats useless. At this point I can assure everyone especially myself that I have a higher IQ than you.I hope you do not take your anger issues out on your son like you do here.
As for what I do, I love where I am, love my job, and who I work with and for.
As for lack of time thats because I run around with my daughter who is a trained dancer,has classes,rehearsals and auditions.When my daughter has a TV performance we go.I follow my daughters drive, passion, and gift.And its my pleasure.
My JOB allows me to come and go as I need to.With pay.Any yes my daughter is going to college majoring in dance and journalism and will one day have the words to write about losers like you.
I dont delete posts, and I’ve already won the argument, because doing what you are doing doesn’t deem happiness, and I am happy.If what you deem happiness also includes your nasty mouth and attitude,then you are not successful but then again I am.

Bernie, if you’re really making big money working from home, why not tell everybody else how you’re doing it? No, seriously, I believe I speak for everyone when I say we’d all love to hear how it works? It sounds nice.
Janice, yeah, I DO have a LOT of time on my hands, because I don’t have to go to a regular J.O.B. like the rest of you!
I work from HOME!
It seems that perhaps you are not capable of reading long sentences, but try and go back and read my last posts and recall how much money I make in a WEEK! Easily and effortlessly, from the internet for just three or four hours a DAY!
Yeah, I have a LOT of spare time on my hands which means I get to spend a lot more time with my son instead of missing out on him growing up! AND he’s learning how to make money too instead of going through the usual drone channels, only to finish education, get a J.O.B. and make someone else rich!
And there really is NO POINT in arguing with people like you if you’re going to keep deleting posts!
If you can’t win an argument, then why bother wasting your own time trying to LOOK like you know what you’re doing!?
Have fun, won’t be back this way again, but I WILL be checking my Clickbank account everyday to see how much I make! (Incidently, going to be a GREAT month this month, as I’m averaging $380+ PER DAY!!)
Good luck with your Inbox Dollars SCAM!
Bernie apparently has too much time on his hands and he accuses Steve of that. Bernie dear, you keep answering don’t you have anything beter too do? At least at this moment I can admit I have nothing better to do.
Okay, just realized that there is another user here going by the name of ‘steve’
All replies by ‘Steve’ are by the owner, me. All replies by ‘steve’ are from some random guy who apparently is for InboxDollars.
Apologies.
Damnit, Steve. I’ve told you once, I’ve told you a thousand times: don’t poke the caged monkeys! I turn my back for five minutes and here you are picking fights again.
