Do any of you guys know an effective way to make money on the net. My parents have ben threatening for a long time now, and I think they're serious. They say I'm going to need to cover the expenses to use the internet (I live in Costa Rica, mind you), seeing that I use it all the time. However, I have no money for that. So, do any of you guys know a way to make money online? I already have AllAdvantage, which is working fine. If you don't see me post come May, you'll know what happened ------------------ Nederland 2000 NBA+stupidity=Brand ROY NBA+common sense=Franchise MVP Houston Rockets Space Center- Not just another ClutchCity.NET clone.

Hmm...a job? I really don't have time for that. I'm a senior in high school, which means a lot of work. I usually spend my time doing homework or on the net. That's why I'm trying to find a way to make money while on the net. I really don't want to the spam- like thing and email veryone in this BBS to sign up for AllAdvantage or something. It's not really appreciated. Oh well...maybe I can log on at school once in a while. ------------------ Nederland 2000 NBA+stupidity=Brand ROY NBA+common sense=Franchise MVP Houston Rockets Space Center- Not just another ClutchCity.NET clone.

Ace, give me your email address, and I'll direct my junkmail filter directly to your inbox. "$$$$ MAKE $3,000/MO START $$$$" No seriously. Email me your "resume" of things you like to do on the internet, and what you have fun doing, or are skilled at doing....I just might have a job for you at $10/hr. Same goes for anyone else who likes to surf the Internet and is comfortable viewing source. Let me give you a clue: I need people who are interested in Arts and Entertainment sites. my email address is: heypartner@yahoo.com
why don't you use one of the many FREE web access things out there? freewwweb juno alta vista free internet etc, etc do a search for FREE internet and boom! there are alot... the best is freewwweb, no pop up ads...i don't know if they have costa rica access numbers ... but i'm sure one or some of these free web access thing has to have some sort of local access? how about banner ads? tripod has a rewards program... maybe you can do bulk spam emailing for money. how about online surveys... some of those companies pay money for your opinions. good luck, you can always get a job! i feel for ya! rockHEAD ------------------
I KNOW! You go to BBSesses, and threaten people you will HURD them unless they give you money. You laugh but it works for DUKE. Now give DUKE money or I will kick you butt. ------------------ A HOUSE is not a HOME if it is ON FIRE.
Ace, I would look into HP's offer, but perhaps your best bet is to get your parents hooked on something in the Net so they see its value (politics, weather, stocks, bridge games, whatever). I imagine Freeinternet or NetZero wouldn't be free down in Costa Rica (telephone charges). Might check their cites or other ones though. BTW-great country even if you don't toally think so right now, I loved it down there. Take advantage of it. ------------------
Darn, have to type it out again (puter locked up). Anyway, you're right, sir scarvajal. Those free internet connections don't work here. I heard about this lady in England who got into one of those free sites (of the US), and ended up paying a few thousand dollars. Anyway, I'm going to wait for HP to give me a response. ------------------ Nederland 2000 NBA+stupidity=Brand ROY NBA+common sense=Franchise MVP Houston Rockets Space Center- Not just another ClutchCity.NET clone.

Ace not to rain in on your parade, but doesn't it strike you as odd that in one sentence you claim you are on the net all the time... and in another sentence you don't have time for a job as you dont have enough time. I found it quite chuckle worthy...priorities my man, priorities.
Dreamshake, Exactly my point. I do not need a job. The only reason I would get one would be as so to have a connection to the internet. However, getting a job would not allow me to spend time on the net. I balance my time between the internet and homework. Also, I have school as well. I get on the net whenever I don't have homework..but when do I know when I won't? A job has a certain schedule, the net doesn't. Hope that made it a bit clearer. To top it off, my Spanish isn't good enough for me to get a job where speaking is major requirement (e.g. McDonalds, Burger King, etc.). ------------------ Nederland 2000 NBA+stupidity=Brand ROY NBA+common sense=Franchise MVP Houston Rockets Space Center- Not just another ClutchCity.NET clone.

You all should just lay off Ace. CR has no freeking Netzero...or whatever else bullsh!t american lame ass ISP service we all expect here. Most likely, he is on wireless at per/min charge. Anyone who wants to continue bashinng Ace, should save it for fabr. Because he is in a dream situation with a technical difficulties. I can't think of many things more important to any board than a call for help from afar. Listen....Ace knows what he wants. He wants to stay on the internet and he doesn't want no spam job. You don't know his situation. With that said...Ace...I'm coming to CR in July/Aug to see some friends and some back woods misquoito-infested yet life altering beaches and 30 minute walks to the grocery. What are the chances of meeting you and your familey. by the way....You don't know what you have!! [This message has been edited by heypartner (edited April 22, 2000).]
Firstly Ace...I hope you gathered the funny point I was making about your post. Secondly hey...Dude, get a grip. Enough with this I am higher than thou, do as I do garbage your spewing. Might I suggest rereading the context of my last post. Figure that I found it quite a quandry, and a very funny have/have not situation. And to top it off I added a few which I very rarely do. Now the question to be beckoned is: Did you just do what you jumped someone else for supposedly doing? (jumping someone for the wrong reasons)
YES ds, especially had I read your post. I was mainly coming here to read Ace's post to see if he was responding to my offer, and he seemed miffed with his responses. Personally, I find it exhausting to ask for help and get obvious answers that don't help, all kidding aside. Your words hit loud and clear. I'll move my cloud of superiority and lighting bolts to another thread. But I will never come down to your dusty fields of dry mouth. and I rarely use smilies!
Well, damn, heypee, if you're gonna pay me for my services, I'm interested. LOL! ------------------ <this space for rent>
Ohhhh I see. Just a case of opening ones big mouth before their big eyes can even read what they are complaining about. So tell me how it was that you missed my post to begin with. And who else exactly you could of been possibly pertaining too? No one even comes close to having a post that could of been misunderstood as one of animosity. So Ill just figure its good ol fashioned excuse making. No, you use plenty of heypartner. But gripe at those who use !!!!!?????. UH huh
DS,,,this thread isn't about you and me, OK. I dub you the winner. I was trying to annoy you. I'll do it better next time. Now walk away so I can continue monitoring this thread for people who want a job.
heypard: what do you mean by arts and entertainment? movies and tv or fine arts or all of the above? ------------------ rimbaud post-a-thon 2000 [This message has been edited by rimbaud (edited April 23, 2000).]
Hey all, First of all, I would like to thank all of those who understand the situation and were willing to give me some help. HP and I have been figuring things out, and it looks like its working out great. Granted, this job might leave me some $$ to spend on other things as well. So please no posts telling me that. BTW, I sent you my ICQ, HP. If you need my phone number as well, email me ASAP. Anyway, could we please put a rest to this bickering? It's pointless. We're all Rocket fans here! DS, I know you were trying to joke around, but it's not all too funny when you see it through my eyes. ------------------ Nederland 2000 NBA+stupidity=Brand ROY NBA+common sense=Franchise MVP Houston Rockets Space Center- Not just another ClutchCity.NET clone.

rimbaud, I was purposely being vague. I don't really want to say much more in a public forum. Email me if you are interested or know someone. Note, I'm not really interested in intern that live outside of Houston right now. I'm making an exception for Ace, because it was an impassioned plea, he a cc.net-er, and I'm jealous of him. Ace...I do have all your info. But, I'm still keeping an eye on the thread for others. I'll get to you Mon or Tue via ICQ.
HP, Ok, thanks a lot. Jealous? Hmmm... ------------------ Nederland 2000 NBA+stupidity=Brand ROY NBA+common sense=Franchise MVP Houston Rockets Space Center- Not just another ClutchCity.NET clone. We're that and more!
One thing some of my friends will do is sign up for <A HREF="http://www.alladvantage.com/home.asp?refid=EZL-865">All Advantage</A> and then download a program to move your mouse for you, and another one to randomly go to websites so that <A HREF="http://www.alladvantage.com/home.asp?refid=EZL-865">All Advantage</A>will think you are online doing stuff. However if you do not have unlimited hours this will not work. One note to add make sure to tell them you are over 18 or they will hold your check until you turn 18. ------------------ ~John~ Hi, my name is John and I'm a clutchaholic.
