I'm on a bit of a bit of a mission today. I'm on a bit of a mission today. I always like trying out different ways on making money online and I always see these videos
0:29
on TikTok especially of people saying they can make a decent bit of cash just completing online surveys
0:36
Yeah, it's how you can make extra money during your free time doing simple online surveys like this
0:41
Are y'all ready? Come on, one, two, three, say. I'm back with another side hustle, you can make $100 an hour
0:48
Let's do this. You're going to go to user interviews.com. I'm not going to knock it until I actually try it out
0:54
So that is what I'm going to do today. So now I'm off to waste a couple of hours of my Saturday, but I need to fuel my brain
0:59
first. I'm on my way to get a chicken fillet roll and whatever the price of that chicken fillet roll is
1:04
that is my target of how much money I have to make today from online surveys. So if I can make
1:09
that amount, you know what, I'd actually be happy. So first things first, I need to actually go and get this
1:13
chicken fillet roll. I'm not going to go for one of those cheap ones. I've got to go for a premium one
1:17
They like so super value I'd say. So let's go. Here we are now fine establishment
1:33
Crazy bit of business. Did you have me or soup for your red
1:39
A lot of soup for your red. Any butter? Just made a thing
1:43
Could I have some lettuce, red onion and cheese and a hot chair can fill it as well please
1:48
Thank you very much. Please scan your first item Have you scanned your reward card
1:58
Right so I'm back out Jesus that was mortifying walking around super value with a camera there
2:02
The roll set me back four euro I probably see it there four euro
2:07
That's not much of a challenge so I went mad and I got a bottle of water as well and I had another 150
2:13
So that means my target for today is five euro and fifty cent is what I need to earn from surveys
2:18
So I better go home now and get to work Okay so here we go I'm about to start I'm going to set a
2:23
timer here and come back in an hour and just let you know how I'm getting on so stick
2:27
around to the end to see exactly how much I made my first port I've called anyway was
2:31
to do a bit of research and see where I can actually try and make some money from
2:35
completing surveys in Ireland I wasn't sure if there was many legit places but
2:39
I did come across a few one was Irish Opinions another was Mabrogue and then the
2:44
other one was Red Sea I signed up for the three of those but I'm probably just
2:47
gonna focus on one and see how that goes first and the one I decided to go which was Irish Opinions The reason being is you can actually cash out with them once you hit a balance of 10 euro in some of the other ones it was like 50 euro so 10 euro it seems like a more
3:01
achievable number so i said i go with that they don't actually give you cash though they
3:05
give you some vouchers for the likes of pennies or amazon or tesco and a few other brands i'll
3:09
just put up a screenshot here of the ones that you can avail of when i was doing my research
3:14
i did come across a few other international platformers one was like swag books but to be honest
3:18
i haven't actually tried out i name those yet so that's enough waffling I'll be back in an hour. Okay we're an hour in and I've only made one euro and
3:35
50 cents. I'm still a long way from covering my chicken filler roll and the bottle of water
3:39
The survey is on off our varying lunch they could be anywhere from five minutes to 20 minutes
3:44
The shorter ones obviously pay you less but where I wasted most of my time in the first hour
3:49
there was actually fitting out information for Irish Opinions.com. I had to create an old profile
3:54
about myself so they would know what surveys to actually send to me. But that's one thing you
3:58
should know. You cannot just immediately log in and start earning straight away. So I should
4:02
have a clear run now and should I get back to work and hopefully I'll be a lot closer to my target
4:05
and next time I update you. So I'm about an hour and a half in at this stage. I have doubled my
4:11
money from the last time I updated you. Now I'm up to three euro but I have run into another
4:14
problem and I've actually run out of surveys available for me to complete. So I'm only
4:19
done four surveys so far to get me to that three euro mark So what I think I have to do here is fill out a lot more information about myself on irishopinion which i feel a little bit uneasy about
4:30
but i'm determined to hit the target so what we're going to do is take a break for an hour and fill in a bit more information and hopefully a few more surveys will pop up and i would be
4:38
able to finish off the rest of the day and hopefully even exceed the target that i set at the start
4:42
of the day and five euro and 50 cents. So i finally got over the line hit my target and took me eight
4:47
surveys in total to get you six euro and 25 cents in rewards. Excluding the breaks
4:53
it took it took me two and a half hours or so in total to earn that money so it's
4:57
pretty shocking when you consider I only made two euro 50 an hour for that two and a
5:01
half hours work so my overall verdict would be to stay away it's just like they're
5:05
really boring to go please anyway and your eyes will be actually burned out of
5:09
your head by the time you're actually finished doing one of them and as I said before you're giving away so much information about yourself is it really
5:17
worth it for getting a few euros to give away so much information. Lots of companies are going to get
5:21
a lot of value off that information now that I'm not for giving them that they're probably going to hit me with lots of different marketing and crap like that. So I'm pretty happy now to cross that
5:30
off my list of a site hustle that I never want to try again. But let me know what your experiences
5:34
are if you have tried it out yourself. Drop me a comment below and also like and subscribe and all
5:39
that jazz and I'll see you guys in the next video. So I think what I'm going to have to do is to fill
5:44
out a lot more information about myself and irishopinion.com.com.com. That come. Jesus
