I tried doing MTurk with all the plugins and shit. Did not get many good results. I’ve seen people say “you gotta do 100 or 1000 tasks within a week” and bro I’m not sitting here answering a 30 minute survey for 12 cents lol.

MTurk is something I do every now and again. Its very cyclical though. Both with the tasks offered and my anxiety hitting a level that I can make myself obsessively click buttons for hours a day for a few bucks.

I’ve been able to get a hundred dollars(ish) in a month doing surveys posted by Universities and Marketing research departments if I spend hours each day clicking through everything possible. But after a few months they dry up and I stop checking the listings. (Probably lines up with grad students schedules). The few actual “help a business do business stuff” are so dodgy for me that it fucks up my Accept/Reject number.
