Hi,
Yes, there are programs that actually work.
I believe Google has a researcher section where you pay to have your
questions answered and the researchers, who work from home, are paid
for their time, expertise and research skills. The application process
is explained on the site.
Here's a review from an impartial
source:http://www.iptek.net.id/eng/news/36.htm
There are also paid to surf and paid to read email programs that
generate small amounts of money. The catch with some of these is that
they require you to buy products to earn cash.
My Points (www.mypoints.com/) is one that gives you the option of just
clicking. They award points which are redeemable for gift certificates
or other products. They took care of most of my Christmas shopping
last year.
There are plenty of other paid to read email programs. None pay a lot,
but if you're wading through spam anyway, you might want to consider
some of them.
Here's a site that lists paid to read email and has links to online
surveys that pay: http://trollium.htmlplanet.com/MakeMoneyOnlineB.html
- Make money Online.
These references are supplied with the warning that you need to be
careful. There are scams out there that say they'll pay and don't.
However, many are really marketing companies who are providing a
service to their clients and paying a small portion of their profits
to you. It's up to you to shop for the good ones. Another warning. The
goal of many of these is to get you to sign up or buy products. If you
can ignore a sales pitch you can fill a lot of holiday stockings with
these programs. If you can't ignore sales pitches - steer clear!
Get Paid to Read E-Mail - http://shop.bltg.com/email.htp
has another list that you can check.
The other work at home programs that I have seen I can't recommend.
Sorry. If I come across one that isn't a MLM scheme or that doesn't
ask you to invest money to find out what they have to offer, I'll post
it!
search terms:paid to read email
You'll make back your $2.00 anyway!
Have fun.

Hi,
The Google researcher positions are a work online program that really
works. It works so well that they have been flooded with qualified
candidates :-) Applications are not being accepted now, but that seems
to be a temporary situation.
See: "How do I sign up to become a Researcher?
Because of an overwhelming response by qualified candidates, we are
temporarily not accepting additional applications. Please check back
with us again, as we likely will begin accepting applications again in
the near future."
https://answers.google.com/answers/faq.html#aboutga
I recommend watching for the application process to be opened again.
It's an interesting position if you enjoy research.
I realize that the My Points program doesn't pay cash. That's why I
specified that they pay in points that are redeemable for products. I
do use it and it's not intrusive. The points can be redeemed for gift
certificates - which makes it almost like cash :-) unless you need to
pay rent or buy groceries with the revenue it generates. Since you
were looking for $10 or $20 a month, it seemed like a program that
might fit your needs. Although I do receive mail from them, I don't
get any reward for recommending them to you. I just found it to be a
decent program.
And while it is true that you can't register for that program anywhere
in the world, they do accept participants from the United States,
Australia, Canada, Japan, South Africa, the UK and US Military
territories. Once you register you can read the posts anywhere in the
world - as long as you can access your email account.
It was an extra bit of information over what you requested that I
thought might be of interest. If you only want programs that pay cash
and are available anywhere in the world, feel free to ignore that one
:-)
Thanks for requesting the clarification. I hope this answers your
questions.
Regards,
bcguide-ga
