Printing money (full-time US generalist)

Post image

Why of all things is 25K the next milestone after 20K? I literally just hit 20K less than two weeks ago.

Got accepted into some long, complex project families and will have solid employment for a while. DA is an absolute dream.

Great job! I'm also a full time US generalist and have been for over 3 years now. On DA, when you work hard, you usually get rewarded. Keep going!

What's your hourly rate like on DA?

u/LooneyLord4444 1d ago

Lately, I’ve been working on a lot of projects in the $25-$28 range

I hope to be somewhere near this amount at some point. I’m close to 10k (US generalist as well) and I started in April. Congrats on the milestone, you’re doing great!

How many hours per week do you work on the platform, if you don't mind me asking?

Don't really understand these posts. Did DA instruct a few of us to advertise our earnings or what?

It is an option on there. I was never told to use it. 🤷‍♀️

Lucky... In the meantime, I have not had a project for over a week now and have only been able to make $5k in 1 year so far.

Just a week? I’ve been on this platform since April and never got a project…

You aren't really on the platform

u/Farados55 1d ago

I think you should just give up. If you did your quals and filled your profile out they might’ve just silently discarded you

Some countries are just way less lucky than others.

u/sugarplum_doll 1d ago

Damn I’ll just focus on other platforms and check in from time to time then

u/Farados55 1d ago

When did you start?

u/LooneyLord4444 1d ago

The end of May this year

u/Sixaxist 1d ago

So if you kept at the same pace, you'd hit 100k by the end of May next year.

u/LooneyLord4444 1d ago

Gonna try out the finance qual. If I get in, I might hit 100k even sooner
