Side hustle 2024 challenge: Spotlight on Paidviewpoint

 I'm going to start the official tabulations for the side hustle 2024 challenge on April 1 to make the reporting and calculations clear, but until then I figured I would take the opportunity to spotlight some of the programs I use to earn extra money from home, so that if you want to follow along, you can join them too.

Today I'm going to talk about Paid Viewpoint (referral link: if you sign up, I will get a referral credit. Thanks).

Paid Viewpoint is one of my favorite survey sites. They don't have as many surveys available as some other sites, but it also isn't a constant router where you can spend hours getting rejected without actually earning any money. When they send you a link, you will qualify for at least a 10 cent trait survey, or more if you qualify for the survey. As you complete the trait surveys, your trait score will increase and you will get invitations to surveys more often. Once your trait score is close to 1000, you should get one to two invitations a day. The trait surveys are fairly quick, so if you don't qualify, you aren't going to spend 20 minutes only to find you only made 10 cents. If you do qualify for the full survey, it's usually pretty well paid, and you can easily rack up a few dollars a day.

One of the bigger downsides is that they have a $15 minimum for payout, and especially at first it may take a while to accumulate that much. Once you reach $15 though, they pay out within 72 hours to Paypal. 

So go ahead and get signed up for Paid viewpoint today and start building your trait score. Hopefully it will help with your own side hustle 2024 challenge!

 Have you tried Paid Viewpoint? What do you think of it? Is there another site you'd like me to spotlight or review?

Four figure month: side hustle 2024 challenge

 I've decide to start a side hustle challenge for myself for 2024. I thought about what a good goal might be  for extra income from home, considering I now have 2 kids, a house, and a full time job. I had seen some people online setting goals of $100 a day in extra income from side hustle jobs, but that didn't seem reasonable to me. I thought about how much money would be possible while also feeling like an accomplishment and what I settled on was that if I can make $1000 a month through extra income from home side hustles in 2024, that feels like a lofty but achievable goal. 

In order to make that four figure month of $1000, I decided to break that goal down into $33 a day. That seems both doable and like it will start to make a dent quickly. My accountability goal is to post here dailyish with an account of how much I've made and to start to keep data on what side income gigs are the most profitable or successful.

I hope you'll stick around and I encourage you to set your own big goals.
