A decent week with just under $70 dollars in beer money income. This week puts me over $1000 dollars in beer money income since I started tracking it back in mid-November. If I can make an extra thousand a quarter I will be more than happy. That’s an extra four thousand a year – no small change. I think it really goes to show that with just a bit of spare time, almost anyone can earn enough income on the side to invest.
I’ve continued to expand the amount of sites I use and I feel confident that I can continue to earn at least $50 a week, especially after seeing my holiday earnings. All the sites take up about the same amount of time, so unless I get lucky, I don’t think I’ll increase my income without increasing the time I spend on them. And I’m okay with that. I don’t want to spend more time than I already do and the benefit is that I get to pick it up and put it down when I feel like.
Perhaps after the first true quarter of the year is over I can put together some data to see which sites I’m earning the most on and do a bit more in-depth analysis about the stocks I’m picking. I don’t know that I have a proper method, but I am attempting to learn as I go and improve the stability of my portfolio. I expect to make some mistakes, but it’s all part of the process.
