About Me

I'm a college student from Central Texas. I recently completed a bachelor's degree, and in the fall, I will start on my master's degree. I've been job searching this summer, and in the copious free time of joblessness, I stumbled across the concept of paid survey sites.

About This Blog

On this blog, I will cover my experiences with GPT ("get paid to") sites and survey sites.

GPT site - A website that allows you to earn money by signing up for offers (advertising, sweepstakes entries, and the like), and occasional surveys. Pros: Generally more money earned than with survey sites. Cons: More possibilities of receiving spam mail or calls.

Survey site - A website that allows you to earn money by taking surveys. Surveys are usually created by advertising or research entities. Pros: Less possibilities of receiving spam. Cons: Generally less money earned than with GPT sites.

The name "Slackercash" is not entirely accurate. There is actual work required to make money via paid survey sites and GPT sites; not as much work as a traditional job, but then again, not as much money either. However, this is still a job that can be done at home, day or night, and on your own schedule. When I do offers, I'm usually wearing pajama pants, listening to music, with a cat in my lap. If that's not a slacker way to earn money, I don't know what is!

I googled "slackercash" and found that someone had a same-named .com or .net in the past. Just for the record, I don't know what those sites were about and am in no way affiliated with them. In any case, it's a cool combination of words, and definitely has a ring to it, so that's why I chose it.

This blog will detail my progress with these sites, as well as provide information for others to try them out as well. I will be posting general tips for using paid survey sites and GPT sites, and I'll also be doing reviews and tutorials for specific sites. For most, this line of work is not a viable living. However, it is a good supplemental income, and a decent way to learn to pace yourself in a self-employed fashion. I recommend it for anyone who, like me, has spare time, an internet connection, and a need for some extra cash.
