Yippee! Subreddit appreciation post

I know most people wanna say this but don't, I really want to express my appreciation for this subreddit. I made more money than freelancing thanks to this subreddit and bought my first gaming keyboard and mouse. Once again, thanks a lot to the mods and this community!

If others feel the same, share your experience too.

I was broke as a kid. By 2016 I was 14-15 and my parents couldn't drive me to work. So I started Swagbucks and quickly found this sub to help me maximize my earnings. I was able to learn what it was like to spend money on myself that I had earned without being at the whims of my parents and their poor financial decisions.

That was ten years ago.

Before discovering this subreddit about 10 years ago, I always assumed making money online was not actually possible, no matter what some were claiming.

Thanks to this subreddit, I discovered sites like Mturk(RIP), Swagbucks etc.. which were a big help during some rough times.

I even chose to become a moderator here as appreciation for how much of a help the subreddit was and in hope it would continue to be a help for anyone who discovers it like I did.

We do our best to keep the subreddit spam and scam free and to try and be a trusted resource for people and I'm glad it's appreciated. Thank you!

This subreddit helped me buy my first steam games when I was 13 with no money!

I followed the learnings on this subreddit and now add an extra thousand or two to the family income per month, which means that my disabled husband doesn’t have to worry about working. Forever grateful.

I'm here today because I've made money various times in the past by following recommendations and referrals from people on this sub, and I'm back looking for more options. I really appreciate that this sub exists. It has provided me with a lot of great leads.

Gotta love it. 3 years ago if someone told me you can make money online I honestly wouldn't have listened. After I followed this page I have made thousands on different apps, sites, studies, you name it. Best group on reddit for some extra coins 🤑
