Looking for a realistic guide to earning extra cash online?  In today’s digital age, the internet offers various ways to earn Money online.  One such method that has gained popularity in recent years is taking online surveys.  Companies and market research firms are willing to pay for valuable customer feedback, and they often turn to online surveys as a convenient way to gather this information.

While taking surveys is a legitimate way to earn some extra cash or receive rewards, it’s essential to have realistic expectations and understand how the process works. In this article, I will share the benefits of taking online surveys, tips for success, and how to make the money that you earn grow even further.

The Benefits of Taking Online Surveys

One of the most significant advantages of taking online surveys is the flexibility that it offers. You can complete surveys at your own pace and choose when and where to participate, making it an ideal option if you are looking to earn money from the comfort of your home.  In fact, if you have a mobile phone, you can take a survey from anywhere.  Hybrid Boomers can complete surveys during lull periods while in the office, working from home, or even while waiting at a doctors or other appointment.

Survey websites offer various rewards for your participation, including cash payments, gift cards, points that can be redeemed for products or services, and sweepstakes entries for larger prizes. This variety allows you to choose rewards that suit your preferences.   

How to Make Your Survey Earnings Grow

Taking the surveys will provide extra income, but it’s important to understand that the earnings are modest. You won’t get rich by participating in surveys, rather it’s more of a supplementary income source than a primary one.  To make your survey earnings grow, here is what you need to do:

1.  Open a PayPal account – They will give you $10 for joining.  From the survey sites that pay cash you should cash out to this account.  It becomes your capital or temporary savings account.
2. Open a brokerage account at a site like Robinhood or you can use your PayPal account too.  I recommend Robinhood because it’s good for a side effort where you can keep your money separate from other investments or financial transactions to measure how well you are doing with this gig.   
3. Sign up for the research companies and survey sites.  The recommended sites below are based on those that are working for me.  There are literally hundreds of available sites like these online, but they are not all quality or reputable sites.
4. Be Patient and Persistent
5. Periodically check your earning with the survey companies.  As soon as you have earned enough to redeem your rewards, cash it out to your PayPal account.
6. Transfer the money from your capital/savings account at PayPal to fund your Investing account at Robinhood.
7. Now, buy some stocks!  Robinhood gave you a couple of stocks to get started, so you have the option to invest your survey money into these or choose others on the platform.  I purchased additional shares of  the stocks awarded to me, but I also purchased a Growth ETF and a REIT to invest my money ongoing.   I throw a few dollars into cryptocurrency too.
8. Repeat steps 5 through 7 and watch your survey money grow into an investment portfolio that could make you rich!
9. Have fun with it!
